Hi Tim (and everyone else),
I'm Lew, I'm 36 and originally from Caerphilly in Sth Wales, UK. I'm currently now living in a small town called Stone in Staffordshire (still in the UK).
I work full time in Logistics but I'm working in my spare time to complete a degree in I.T & Computing, after which I aim to do a PGCE so that I can then teach it. My long term goal is that when this has all been done to try and move out of the UK, I would love to try and setting in the USA. How that is going to pan out exactly I do not know but I've a few things to get done before that.
I've been a science fiction fan for longer than I can remember, I think it started with Doctor Who when I was very young and went from there. I'm pretty new to the MMO world. I heard STO was coming and had a go at LOTRO. I'm not really into the whole Middle Earth thing so that one came and went. I joined STO and bought the pack etc etc. I left it for about a year and have recently picked up where I left off. It's changed a hell of a lot so I'm having to learn it all again. I'm still not 100% sure what I'm doing on it but that's all part of the fun. I treat it as a bit of fun and a distraction, I don't get too serious about it and I really don't understand those that seem to loose their tempers with others on there. I'm happy enough to give group missions a go but my experience of the game since the changes is not that good at all. There's where the fun lies I'd say.
I have 3 characters on the game, one of each type, my Tactical is currently the one that's in Stonewall as that's the main one I use, need to get the others on here too really.
When I'm not working or playing STO I like to travel, I've seen quite a lot of the world but there's always more to see. I enjoy ancient history, new age theories and astronomy.
Hope to bump into more of you on the game.
Lew
