So I have been talking to Atoz recently and frankly its quite obvious that this forum is not getting anywhere due to the fact that matthew911 has disappeared. So what I would like to know from our active members is what should we do? Should we continue like this or should we start a new forum? Permission to speak granted Edit: here is something I have been working: startrekgalaxy.proboards.com/index.cgi

I dont' know. Allthe broken images are a major distraction I'll admit. That might be why people are looking the place over but not joining. But basically I think there just aren't that many people who want to talk about STar Trek!

I tend to agree with Luke. I don't think a NEW forum is the answer. I'm a member of three different Star Trek forums (that's not counting the other three which died due to lack of interest), and it's the same all over. There are a very few core members who post regularly, and they are such long-time fans they seem to have run out of things to say. The most active forum I know is Krillmeeds and they spend 99% of their time playing Hangman (a puzzle game where you fill in letters until you can guess the Star Trek quote). I don't think a new forum is going to make any difference.

But basically I think there just aren't that many people who want to talk about STar Trek! I'd have to agree with Luke. Although I still am a huge fan and love to talk with others...but I tend to "talk" on boards in spurts and maybe others are the same way.

What's the deal here? I can't log out! The icons won't even appear! Admiral Matthew, you're really going to have to keep this place maintained better!

i voted yes before i read and i do apologize and i cant understand why people dont like star trek or dont want to talk about it i like star trek and its taken me a while to actually find a forum to talk on because i was afraid of what people would think now it seems ive started to get really active about star trek too late and i agree with luke i believe star trek is one of the best series made in my eyes it has one rival the star wars films and the cartoon series and i must admit this forum does tend to be dead most of the time but i like just reading through gaining more knowledge about star trek and the views of my fellow fans.

I know how you feel. I hunted through a few forums myself before I found this one. We get so many people who register, even post a First Contact topic, and then we never hear from them again. This particular topic was mainly about whether the broken image tags were too distracting. We all still love Star Trek, but we were talking about moving en masse to a different forum.

Yes, that's true. We're desperately trying to keep the flame burning; not entirely successfully I gather.

You sound as if you only recently discovered Star Trek. Is that so?
