lol it is a reman, i forgot to mention, the server was acting up so it sort of glitched my character up, and jimmy it put it here purely as somewhere to show your screenshots, nothing else...
for now we'll keep it in one thread and run a poll...

the problem i see with two threads is (as i said) you wind up having two discussion threads and sometimes it could get annoying or difficult to keep up with both conversations...
even if there was a single thread for screenshots, each screenshot will have a quick discussion about the screenshot - and thats been pretty much the flow of this whole 99 page thread thus far...  this thread is full of screenshots and quick discussions of them until some other discussion about the game came up and went in that direction for a while...
seems redundant to me to have two threads more or less being the same thing, we'll see how everyone feels in the poll...

I say keep in current thread until we get a whole forum dedicated to STO.
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

Would that ever be necessary?  :facepalm:

probably so it doesnt just make one long unbroken thread, it would be better to have several threadson STO topics, like screenshots so that there are several threads spread out to save people through reading through HUNDREDRS of pages....

nobody reads through hundreds of pages anyway...
have several threadson STO topics, like screenshots so that there are several threads spread out
and thus several different conversations all about one thing - the game...  because in the end, thats what theyd all be discussing...
whether it be ships in the game, or screenshots of things in the game, etc
it would all be the same thing in the end...

also, this hasnt been one long unbroken thread, it has actually kept a decent understandable flow, and this thread has been going on since before the game has been released with no need to break it up into several categories...  that would get even more confusing...

jimmy thats not what i meant, i meant that we have seperate threads on seperate STO topics like tactics or screenshots where they can JUST be shown off, and people post their screenshots in the reply whilst saying something of the previous screenshots.

i get it...  what youre not understanding is that thats how this whole thread has been going, and it has been a nice flow with no major need for change or disruption of the routine thus far...
the majority will have the say, but so far it is vastly leaning to keeping it all in one thread, as it has been going since the beginning...

anyway, moving on...
back to the game...

And on that note... This is Bridge Commander Central, so it's focus is ultimately on Bridge Commander and everything surrounding it :P

The Commander level Excelsior is scheduled for somewhere around the 24th of August, not sure about the refit.

The Hologram bridge officer idea is pretty cool, but Talaxians? Excellent cannon fodder!
