Doesn't the Sovereign class pretty much destroy that argument? :D

Re: Technical Discussion Forum?

Rochey wrote:Aye, technical questions simply go under whatever series they're from. So, for example, if you want to talk about the E-Nill's speed, you'd post that in the TOS forum.
Oh, I guess what I meant was general Trek tech discussion. :?

Where would a general post go? I would probably put it in TNG...

Re: Why does everyone love the original TOS Enterprise so much?

There's also a matter of context. Trek did this : http://www.cloudster.com/Sets&Vehicles/STEnterprise/EnterpriseRenderings/EnterpriseRender07a.jpg The Constitution class was an absolute revolution in science fiction. Compared to the kinds of things that had gone before it was mindblowing origin...

Re: Technical Discussion Forum?

Yeah. Eventually you realize all the discussions on this board get technical if you give them enough time. :-) Also, they do not stay on topic more than 2 pages...3 may be a record. :lol: LOL...as evidence by my intro thread...left the topic on the second page lol. Welcome to the board! I hope the ...

Technical Discussion Forum?

Hi, I don't see a technical discussion forum, do you just throw those topics in the general forum? If not, I think it would be nice to have a specific Technical Discussion forum, perhaps under each series (Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate, etc...), or a main tech thread with different levels, or a sin...

Re: Why does everyone love the original TOS Enterprise so much?

I suppose I will do my best to respond to everyone though. You should be able to do that by replying using the quote button in the top right of every post, rather than the "reply" button at the bottom of the thread. Oh, I could, I'm just saying it would be easier if there was a method tha...

Why does everyone love the original TOS Enterprise so much?

Hi all, I've been lurking for a couple of weeks now and reading your thoughts on the look of the new movie and the new Enterprise and Kelvin. Personally, I'm excited. There's already some stuff I disagree with (like the viewscreen being a window?!?!, seemingly pointless scenes etc), but I'm not a TO...
