bbbb Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I think a convention is a great idea. Nowhere else in the history of Star Trek has there been a way to exchange ideas as well as Star Trek in order to share and mutually benefit from our fascination with sci-fi. I personally have enjoyed our forums (and the site content, I just love watching the Star Wars trilogy from this site). There have been such great ideas presented on this site by you, the loyal members of this site. Hopefully we can avoid this site being persecuted by the evil MPAA or other industry cohorts, whose only goal is to monopolize and control our love of sci-fi. This site has so many members because it offers something no other site can offer: a community dedicated to sharing genuine files focused on sci-fi and Star Trek. Have a good day.

THE ENTERPRISE BBS Ran Renegade, FidoNET, and had a few "Doors" like TradeWars and L.O.R.D. That was a fun project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulreaper Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Yep agreed - a EuroCon as well! Reflection: Although being probably further "up" north than ANYONE here in the forum (especially Europe) I'm still more inclined to go to the Provo Con :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulreaper Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Well..to me, AMSTERDAM sounds like a given choice :D :D :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oma Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Yeah the Netherlands and Belgium area seems fair . Anyone in that area? Also, how long does a Con last? I mean, most of us can probably clear a week-end but 5 days might be overdoing it for me... But, of course, others can stay shorter or longer... Anyway, it looks like a roundtrip for me to amsterdam would be ca. 200 euro and for food, transportation, pitching in for whatever place we rent probably 150-200 euro more (if it's a week-end). It's do-able. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiteShdw Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 It would definately be a short event, nothing fancy. Anyone that wanted could stay longer, but it wouldn't be part of the 'event'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostwolf357 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 synexo Damn if 10,642 Active Users of a torrent site got together in one place, you think the MPIAA would bomb the location? they would at the very least hit us with Bio weapons No there laywers would die of heart attacks after they relized how MANY PEOPLE there are, including I bet themselves (for legal study I bet.). :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foe Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Here for the Euro con: I'm proposing London, UK, same date an time of the con in US for a web coonection between the 2 events... anyone agrees? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodoxxx Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 how about a Toronto Con, you all can bring real money up here and we will bring the real beer. If that dosent work we could always try Niagara Falls, everybody has to see them sometime and we might as well have a get together at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
