How would we go about a trial forum? Star Trek isn' t the only candidate. Should we allow only one trial forum at a time, or multiple? If only one, why would Star Trek get priority over other ones? Should the decision be based on the date the request was submitted, support, visible demand, the potential volume of material, etc.?
All requests should then be evaluated against the same set of criteria.

I have to say that I side with Ush and Lana on this, as much as it looks like I'm asking for the KMC Mafia to pay me a visit by saying so. I have nothing against Star Trek though I have never avidly watched it. My concern is that a Star Trek forum would 1) detract from any discussion occurring in the Television forum that is currently going on and lowering the traffic to that section of the boards, and 2) would wither and die shortly after its creation, no matter how much interest is there. It's disheartening to fans and, no matter how much you would say you still love Star Trek, it just wouldn't be much fun discussing it in a slightly dead section.
Just ask the Matrix fans. Since the Matrix films finished up, people are loathe to really discuss anything in that area, even if they still have no issue with that particular science fiction trilogy. And I know that the Matrix only has three films and some side stuff whereas Star Trek has season after season after season since the 1960's, but that is not the point I'm trying to make.
I'm pretty sure it would be the same way with the Star Wars section, if said section had not been cultivated over the past 8 years, and even now the traffic there has greatly decreased due to the hype of the Prequel Trilogy having vanished.
Personally, I sometimes think that some of the side forums should all just be pushed back into the main forums for the sake of keeping the board topped off with traffic.
Just my opinion, of course. If a Star Trek forum could be proven successful, as Storm suggested with a trial run, then sure, why not. But at this point, I don't think it would flourish on KMC.
