I was looking for Star Wars and Star Trek crossover fan fics. Eventually my searching turned up Mike Wong's fanfic which I relished.

I'm that friend. I found it from Larz. BTW, reason why I don't post in either SW or SW/ST forums: I don't know enogh about either and am intimidated. Reason why I don't post in fanfics: Too long for me to go thru...I personally am not a biog fanfic person on anything.

My god, has it been that long? I remember back about that time, when I got my first computer. I was surfing the net and found Mr. Saxton's site, it took me a few day's to read everything on it, then I started on all the links. I do not remember exactly when I found Mr Wong's site but he just started the fan fic. I spent weeks, months in frustration waiting for all the chapters to be written and when the board went up I lurked for quite a while reading and being amused.

All I can say is THANK YOU MIKE.

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

It has been that long. I know it's hard to believe, I was looking through Curtis' site and saw some of my old credits. It's like a history of my old screenames. Brings back a lot of memories.

Memories indeed. Suddenly I feel so old, even though I'm only 19.

I saw that most of your Warsies considered Blaster rifles capable of blowing Space Marines away easily, and decided that something had to be done about it...:D

I usually enjoyed reading the pasting that Trekkies got when they debated with Mr Wong, so I kept on checking..

eventually exhausted the 40k debating (really serious debates anyway) that Spacebattles generated, decided to come and have a look at SD.net..

To be honest with you, ive encountered more Wankfests on SD.net than on SpaceBattles, I find this strangely dissapointing.
