Hi! I'm a player here on Star Trek: Freedom. I've played the game for four years. I've had various stints in command, and I was one of the first players here to really get into the STF wiki.

=== About Me ===
[[Star Trek: Freedom]] Player.


I'm 19 yeas old, and currently living in the suburbs outside Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I'm attending university at the moment. I learned to read at an early age, and haven't really stopped. I like to write, and probably have an overactive imagination. Outside of these sort of things, I enjoy watching sport (mainly baseball and auto racing, thought I love all forms), playing video games, flying light aircraft, and other lots of things. My favorite movie is Children of Men. My favorite book is Atlas Shrugged.
=== Brief Overview ===


=== Player History ===
I'm only 16 years old, which explains my immaturatity (see quotes below). It seems at my birthday they raise the minium age for the game. Hopefully I won't get kicked out. ;)


I joined the game in 2004 at the age of 14. About six months after I joined, they changed the minimum age to 16, hopefully, not thanks to me. I was assigned to Starbase Geneva with my slightly insane counselor, Brian Rogers. In the summer of 2005, I was given my first taste of command, as my character served as Acting Third Officer of Geneva. I thought I was talented, but it turned out that the guy in charge just wanted me to do the compiles and watch the place while he went on a month long holiday to Australia!
So, enough about me and more about... uh, me.


Geneva's crew was sent to the Boudicca, and I was stripped from my acting 3O position, which was barely a command position (if at all). The Boudicca and Geneva crews didn't merge well, and my old buds from Geneva were dropping from the game like flies. Going back to just writing a counselor seemed boring after being the A3O, and I fell into a slump and didn't feel like playing the game. During this time, I came across the Wiki here on STF. This was before the current Web 2.0 Wiki craze we have now, and this wiki was wildly under used. I think Tony had only added three or four articles at that point. I decided to start editing things and making all sorts of new things. I've had my hand in a lot of important projects here on the Wiki, and I'm proud of that.
=== Random Opinion ===


Thankfully, a sign came from Alan Reading, who asked me to be his First Officer on the USS Spectre. This was in April of 2006, and at age 15, only 20 months of playing the game I had advanced to First Officer, a rather exciting proposition. I had a SPC on most other ships in the fleet, and I was writing like crazy. I taught in the Academy for a short while (seemingly a stop for all command staffers, or wannabe ones.)
I prefer Neil Armstrong over Buzz Aldrin.


However, this is where my Alex Rodriguez-like career took a sharp derailment.
See past random opinions [[User:KevinSchram\Opinion|here]].


Thanks to my raging teenage hormones, my posts and interest in the Spectre started to drop. In the summer of 2007, Alan had to play 'bad cop' and told me he strongly suggested that I start posting more often. I agreed, but then, in the late fall of '07, I decided that I didn't want to drag Alan and the Spectre down with my low posting numbers, so I resigned from the game. Alan told me that I would lose all my characters, my rank, everything. I was worried, but, at the time, I had no intention to return the game. I deleted my extravagant wiki user page and replaced it with "All Good Things..."
=== My Characters ===


Fast forward to March 2008. Something is digging at me, and I can't explain it. I'm sitting, watching Babylon 5 on DVD, thinking about science-fiction command, rank, orders, all sort of these issues. I started investigating the STF fleet rosters. Seeing who replaced me, who all the CO's were now, how the fleet was doing. But, just dallying around the rosters wasn't enough. I drop a line to Alan Reading. I ask a BIG favor. Even though he had told me previously I was surrendering my previous characters, rank and experience, and would have to start over at the ground level, I asked if I could come back with Rogers, at my previous rank. Alan being Alan, he agreed.

=== Goals ===


*[[Charles Buckland]]
My goal is to have at least one SPC on every ship, but not for the sake of having an SPC, because I really like posting. I go through high-low phases in posting. High is where I post a lot and go crazy and get like 10 posts in one night. Low is where it could be a week when I only post once, and even then it is a sad, tiny little cut-and-paste post.


*[[Francisco Mendez]]
My other goal is to one day join the ranks of a command staff some where. I was Acting Third Officer for a while on Geneva, and I got to command Geneva for a while our [[User:Jeff B|fearless acting CO]] was away. I really liked it. Also, when I was playing a [[First Officer]] on the [[USS Raven]] submission, I really enjoyed that too. I'm also a trained compile artist, '''''The Compile Centicore'''''.


*[[Jason Miller]]

=== Epigraphs and Latin ===


*[[Burt Stover]]
I'm also a big fan of Epigraphs. A Epigraph is ''a quotation that is placed at the start of a work or section that expresses in some succinct way an aspect or theme of what is to follow. (see above)'' I really like them for some reason, who knows why. I think its a classy touch. I also like when people say "Et tu (insert name)?" I'm not a Shakespeare fan, but hey, its a nice little reference. I can't wait until my STF character is betrayed so I can use it.
