Star Trek Fans on AF.org
I know there are some Trekkies on the forums, but, being a relatively new member, I don't know the specifics. As my username suggests, I am a serious Trekkie, though I've taken a bit of a hiatus from watching the show over the past couple years. I created this thread so fans and casual viewers of the show can share their opinions. 

Fandom level: What level of trek fan are you? Answers might be "casual fan" or "the show sucks" etc.

Best Series/Movie: What's your favorite series? Voyager? The Next Generation? Maybe you like one of the movies.

Favorite Captain: self-explanatory

Favorite Character: Try not to pick a captain because there is already a category for that (unless you really like two different captains). And try not to pick Spock. Everybody loves Spock. I'm trying to learn something here.

What Alien Race Would You Be?: What Star Trek race is most similar to your personality? Are you a Klingon warrior? A creepy Talaxian? 

Then, if you feel like it, write a  blurb about Star Trek. This could be anything you feel like saying.

Copy/Paste if you want:



Fandom Level: Obsessed 

Best Series: DS9

Favorite Captain: Sisko

Favorite Character: Worf

What Alien Race Would You Be?: Vulcan (obviously Tongue )

I've seen every single Star Trek television show (except Discovery and TAS) and every single movie. I started watching syndicated TNG episodes when I was a teenager and loved it. I'm not a huge fan of the Abrams movies. They're okay, but (to me) it's not Trek. One thing that really appeals to me about Trek is Gene Roddenberry's optimistic vision of the future. I hope that as technology advances, humankind will solve the problems of poverty, racism, and war (at least on our own planet).

Sexiest character: Carol Marcus (Into Darkness)

What Alien Race Would You Be? Betaziod , started to say Q but eventually that would get boring. We should learn from Brahma and not get into his predicament.[/sarcasm]

I watched TOS.  And a year or two of TNG.

I gave it all up when I lost interest in Sci-Fy.

Watch DS9. It's by far the best.

Fandom level: Casual (now).  Down from rabid.

Best Series/Movie: DS9/The Undiscovered Country

Favorite Captain: Sulu

Favorite Character: Q

What Alien Race Would You Be?: Romulan


Rant:  Jar Jar Abrams 'Trek may be 'Trek in name, but it should never be counted as part of canon.  And I hate the trend they started with "Enterprise" to go 'retro 'Trek".  Star Trek is about moving into the future, not trying to relive (and re-write) the past.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"

Best Series: TNG

Favorite Captain: Picard and Janeway (for prom king and queen)

Favorite Character: The barbiedoll ex-borg, I forget her designation now (maybe I<369?)

New category:

Least favorite characters (choose up to three):

Captain Kirk *skin crawls*

First Officer Chipotle from Voyager (played Tonto to Janeway's Lone Ranger)

Felix? from Voyager (the one who looked like a shorter, fatter version of Krusty the clown)

I liked Next Generation and Voyager. Not a huge fan of the series but those were the ones I did watch.
