=== Name one person in the game who has inspired you ===
* I would have to say the new player Sal whose character is [[Ammon Ranae]] the Bajora/Cardassian on the Mystique wrote a truly inspired introductory post that has helped to fire my imagination. My hat is off to you Sal! -[[herbalsheila]]

* My first CO, [[Vladek Rofellian]]. He beat all odds of prejudice to rise through the ranks, and finally become a captain, against all odds. -- Spencer O.

* Its hard to name one person. First person to comes to mind is [[User: Jeff B|Jeff]] who really helpped me when I was rookie. He really taught me a lot of stuff about how the game worked and of course gave me the shot at command, both when my PC was made Acting Third Officer and later in the Raven sub-mission when I was Jeff's FO. Then there is my instructor and first CO, Katherine Mazurok. Not only did she instruct me in the ways of posting, but she was my first CO. She was an excellent poster, and it was too bad when she had to leave the game for RL reasons.Anyway, I could go on and name another 10 people, but I think I've over written this little section anyway. -- [[User:KevinSchram|Kevin S.]]

*Calvin Capps, at a moment when I was thinking of giving up the game, Calvin was the guy that convinced me that I actually had something good to contribute, and for that I thank him. -- Alan Reading.

* Well too bad cos im gonna name 3! Theres [[User: Jeff B|Jeff]], Dave and Al. - [[Jono Bradley]]

* I definitely would have to say Al first was a big inspiration in the game for me. Jer was too, its nice to find someone as sarcastic as you are out there, but he definitely had a lot of helpful hints to pass along. -- [[User:JPB|JPB]] 15:11, 20 May 2006 (EDT)

* Adrie Geuken, who played my first CO, [[Captain Aragorn]]. I think I learned more from him than from any other one person. I met Adrie in the game, so I don't feel unduly biased in saying he was the person who inspired me most. I also learned a lot from Tony Keen, my instructor in the Academy and second CO. And I'm still learning :-) -- [[User:Rivers|Liz Geuken]]

* Adrie Geuken, who played my first CO. Not copying you Liz, honest! He was more than just a Commanding Officer, he was also and still is a very good friend. There were times when he went out of his way to help me both in game and out, and he certainly inspired me to be the best I could be within game. --Wendy Gibson
