=== Why did you join? ===
* I have dreamed for years of being able to play a Horta. Right now my character [[Maraht the Horta]] is assigned and aboard the USS Mystique and has now met the Commanding Officer. I really am enjoying the Forums and I'm learning how to work with Wikipedia to contribute some articles. What do I love the most about this game? No annoying stats and dice rolls, but you get to fill in the blanks as a PC as you contribute with your small part to the overall story. Too cool! -[[herbalsheila]]

* No idea, thought it would be fun.... guess I was right too :-D -- Anthony S.

* I was looking around for Star Trek RPG's after looking at Frontier Fleet, which rejected me, and I really liked the look of this one. -- Spencer O.

* I was writing some crappy Star Trek fan fiction and I needed deck plans. I googled "Star Trek Deck Plans" and STF's page about the deck layout of the USS Nimitz was at the top of the list (or near the top). I quickly liked the look of the game. I figured that writing stories/fiction would be more fun with other people, so I deleted my horrible story and joined up! -- [[User:KevinSchram|Kevin S.]]

* As someone who has always been into Star Trek, I just thought this would be a great way of exercising my imagination & meeting likeminded individuals with the hope of forging a few new friendships along the way. It seems to have worked well :-) -- Alan Reading.

* Well, to be really honest. It was by pure chance that I stumbled across such a great game! I think I also was searching for something to do with Star Trek on Google and this popped up! -- [[Jono Bradley]]

* I was looking around the internet for some place to make your own Star Trek character and Freedom came up. I joined and its been fun ever since. -- [[User:Peluche|Will Banowsky]]
