OOC: Given the light turnout last time, perhaps an in-game reminder closer to Saturday would help?

Majel Barret is my fixation .. well the later years with her and Odo on DS9 etc .. did you know there was a love triangle tween majel and nichelle nichols and gene . but nichelle broke it off so as not to hurt gene's career (cause of her color) and star trek .. I read that in tv guide many years ago . still strikes me to this day ...(and of course the first interacial kiss was star trek .. rock on)

It was extremely difficult to decide between me facing dragons, Kerstov and I running from angry chickens, or even Kerstov drinking some pirates under the table..but, in the end I had the pic the posed shot with me and my buddy :D

I remember watching that episode too... like you, long before I understood the significance of the story and the social commentary it was making.

I saw an interview with Majel Barrett many years later, in which she said that they wouldn't have been able to discuss issues like racial segregation openly in the shoe, so, in order to get it past the censors, they dressed them pair up as aliens and painted one side white, the other black.

What I've always appreciated about Star Trek, is how they addressed contentious social issues in this way.

Also, I think the uniform makes a touching tribute :)

Fan Art not really fiction ...

September 10 2012
Thinking this is best place for this could be wrong ...

One of the most impactful star trek episodes (TOS) was the black white, white black episode ... that is I think entiled Let that Be Your Last Battlefield. As a kid this episode intrigued me ... long before I understood civil rights etc ... as an adult I would come to understand the implications .. one that as a white gay woman having a black straight male best friend; I found it would test my parents, my friends, and lovers who preach non racial bias but didn't always stand by it (IMHO).

Dee and I got to be roommates and friends for over 20 years .. when one of us was dating we tended to move away from our typically shared domicile, in order for our romance to bloom, and on failure ... LOL we were roommates again.

Its coming up on the 5th year of my best friend's death... he so would have loved this game, he missed the ending of battlestar, he would have loved dollhouse, he would have loved felicia day, so much he missed that when I watch things I think of him. I think I am going to keep this outfit until near the end of october in rememberance of him, that episode, and my personal feeling that the world is not as whole as Gene Roddenberry envisioned. (FYI I debuted this about 2 days ago in some fleet events already seeing copy cats to it lol!)



The wikia to the episode I am referring to...

Right now EVERY SHIP on EVERY TOON is named some kinda of way as the USS Pat Benatar ... not very star trekkie .... but a touch of me ... and not very original... maybe as more alts get more ships I will just do a female rock and roll theme lol .. the USS Lita Ford .. the USS Joan Jett ... the USS Halestorm or USS Lzzy

heh who knows enjoying the game so much!.

( I could see a USS Tina Turner ... a USS Cyndi Lauper, but for sure .. it would be IKF Grace Jones ... )

Don't wanna go boy ships but surpised I havent seen a IKF Ozzy Ozzbourne

By the way, I name my ships and characters after books I enjoyed, mainly Hyperion by Dan Simmons and Dune by Frank Herbert.

So my main is named Leto Atréides II aboard the tactical retrofit U.S.S. Hyperion (or the heavy escort carrier U.S.S. Yggdrasil).

Thanks, Seannewboy. You have an EXCELLENT idea. I will make a note to log on Repub side during that time. Thanks again! I will also pin this forum topic so it doesn't get lost at some point. :)

Edit: This forum topic can be used for invites needed on either side-Republic (KOS) or Empire (LOS). Anyone can also send me a private message via the website if they prefer that method to posting here for needed invites. Just specify which faction and time you are planning on logging in to the character that needs the invite so I know when and where to log in also. ;)

X needs an Invite

September 10 2012
I thought it might be useful to set up a forum posting so people could ask for invites.

For instance on 9/9/12 i have one:

Elk'eloe, a Jedi Knight would like an invite for KOS, i intend to be in game with this character next on 9/11/12 about 5:30 pm till 7:30 pm EST.

I know how you feel, I got a Back Brace as well, I had been hoping for a cape or something Visible that people would see, guess I have to go find one or something, maybe try finding a Guild Armorer and buying one, if it is better than what I have, I mean, if it is, then yeah, I'll buy it, but, if it isn't and it's just for show or something, I'll stick with the invisible back brace thank you.

Anybody got any stats for any capes or what not from the Guild Armorers, very much appreciate it if I could at least see if the capes give any stat boosts or anything.
