So I would vote no.



No different than us Star Wars "nerds" arguing about whether or not the OT was better than the PT, or Yoda vs. Dooku or whatever. erm

I say "no" tot the idea of a Star Trek forum... The last thing I want to see is a whole bunch of trekkies flooding into the forum... Man I hate Star Trek fans... In fact I'm pretty sure I hate fanboys of anything... Especially anything Anime related but that's a whole other matter... ****ing Otaku bastards...

Why Star Trek fans in particular? It's a bit harsh to label all fans and say you hate them.

It's not Star Trek fans in particular, it's all fanboy types. I realise it's a bit harsh but what are they going to do about it? Hit me with their +1 Mace?

Fair enough, if gross generalisation works for you then who am I to lecture?

Movie coming out does not automatically mean there will be a large enough demand for a seperate forum...

But it stands a much better chance, Lana. You sound like you're 100% against the idea and that's not really fair.

Lana is right. You don't need to instruct me on Trek having a fan base. I am a sci-fi geek, you know.

But there has been no visible demand for it here- and people requesting a forum and there actually being demand for it are two very different things. I remember the hardcore appeal for a Tarantino area, which pretty much went nowhere.

You have two big problems here, other than the fact that there does not seem to have been much popularity for Trek threads in the sci-fi forum (even when the series was still running!)

The first is that Trek is a split franchise, tv and films. Star Wars is absolutely unique as an area in this forum for being a crossover, and that necessitates it being split up with a separate EU area, and even all that is only as a result of its history at this site. Trek is essentially a tv franchise, and it is nowhere near as big, on this forum, on the tv franchises that do have their own sub-areas in the tv forum.

The second is that there is no Trek franchise currently being shown or even under serious development. 'Lost' and 'Smallville' have their own areas based entirely on being hot at the moment. Trek isn't hot- quite the contrary, it has gone cold.

When it starts up again... that will be a better time to look at this.

Until then, the best way for you to prove me wrong is to make a Trek thread in the TV talk area and see if it becomes hugely popular.

Well, I don't like Star Trek, but I really don't care either way about a forum for it.

He's making it sound like there should be a forum for it because another movie might be coming out, and I'm simply saying that that still doesn't necessarily mean that there will be enough interest and demand for a seperate forum.

Here are two Star Trek threads which I sense are going to become more and more popular.

You're right. I hope that the new film gleans enough interest, to be honest. I'm not a fan as such but I do like Star Trek and I think there is a big enough fan base, even though they're not very active because at the moment there's nothing new to chew on smile
