My 500th Post!!!!!!

KingIsaacLinksr · November 12, 2007, 12:58:14 PM

As I post my 500th topic and post, I think about when I came into the Treks-in-Sci-Fi podcast and forums. It had begun with a small Ipod Nano (which I still have) that I had gotten for Christmas. Since I had a laptop with me when I got it, at the relatives house, I installed Itunes for the first time and began exploring, for the first time, the world of Podcasts. My first podcasts were World of Warcraft Chronicles, Imperial Holonet Radio, The Force-Cast, another couple random podcasts and of course, Treks In Sci-Fi podcast. I initially liked WOWChron.com and IHN Radio, but had issues with the Force cast. When I finally listened to Treks, I'm sorry Rico, I had immediate issues with how you did the podast. :-\ See, having English and Speech drilled into my mind due to a VERY GOOD English teacher, your "I"s and "Uh"s started to get to me. :( In fact, I nearly hit stop due to what I felt was not proper radio broadcasting. Now, I do not want this to seem like critism because you have gotten better since then. ;) But anyway, on with the story!! As I continued to the listen to the podcast, *which incidentially was #95* I started to like it. I eventually got over the "grammer" issue. After a couple more episodes, I started to like what I was hearing. It was after a bit, that I joined as King Linksr. (HA, thought you would hear me real name, eh? Not a chance, wait for Podcast #150). (And those that luckily heard, you post my name and I'll know where you live ;) :old_bash:)

As I was currently starting into the whole universe that is known as World of Warcraft, I also started getting into the universe known as Treks in Sci-Fi. Initially, I did not find the forums that interesting. I was far too much into the other forums known as the World of Warcraft Chronicles. Granted, I never really like forums because they were too big and your opinion meant nothing. However, I liked this one because it is geeky, trekkie, fun, and everyone is very nice. I left WOWchron because I began to feel that it was just too much dislike against me. I really do not know why. But anyway, as I left, I began to take interest in these forums. I became a member of the RPG and created the fictional character known as Isaac Starstriker. Know, there is a back-story to dear old Isaac. I've actually written a short story about Isaac. (Its more of a children's story, but I'm actually thinking of writing a short story, but anyway, back to the real story) Now, as everyone can see, I still had problems about finding my place in the story as well as the forums. It went on and we finally started to really get some good stories going. That was about the time that I became an avid Treks in Sci-Fi forum member.

I'm afraid at the same time, that my Wow guild known as the Hylians also fell apart. It has disbanded and died. I now only talk with a couple ppl from that guild. But we aren't talking about that. ;)

And the rest is written history here. You all know me as King Linksr and Isaac Starstriker, the Royal Shining Knight of the Federation. You don't know what I look like. But you do know that I'm a conservative (not Republican/Democrat) Christian that is currently at Oregon Institute of Technology.

I just want to thank not only Rico for a great Podcast and forums, but I would also like to thank the people on these forums. YOU are the reason I keep coming back here and posting my opinion/observation. It is also because the RPG that I keep coming back. I would also like to say sorry, I've been busy, but hope to get some more posts up soon. So it is all of YOU guys that I salute. :cheers :cheers :cheers. I bow down to all ;) :Bow: :Bow: :Bow:

So as I always do in EVERY post, I'm signing off:

ADMIRAL King Linksr

Now why on Earth would we do that? Except for the dig on Rico of course, we wouldn't slam you, it's not our nature... I will say this "people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." :D ;)

Congrats on your 500th! So glad you're a member of the RPG and the forums. Wouldn't be the same around here without you. ;)

lol

Yep, it wouldn't be the same with out you King. ;)

I wouldn't recommend using that catapult in your glass house. Your very sharp roof would fall on top of your head and that would hurt really, really bad. :D

KingIsaacLinksr · November 12, 2007, 02:47:06 PM

Yes, that would hurt a lot......I'm sure my roomate wouldn't appreciate it either.

No problem dude. I do my best with um's, and ah's. But solo casting is a unique thing. I've actually not really ever found another solo cast that has been on for the length I have. They are a rare and a difficult thing to do. Most podcasts seem to be duo's or more. Anyway, no problem on the comments.

Solo casting is very hard.. I have only heard a few including yours Rico that I actually enjoy and don't get bored listening to. That definitely makes your podcast special.

KingIsaacLinksr · November 12, 2007, 04:13:31 PM

Yea, I'll admit that there are very few solo casts. And those that sometimes have the rare solo ones, just aren't nearly as good.

So keep it up Rico!

Congratulations Kinglinksr!
Was reading your 500th post and had to chuckle about a couple of comments you made.
I went back to show #3 to hear Rico's take on "Serenity", after just now seeing the movie. I was surprised at how somber the show was.
And though it sounds like such a minor offense, I feel your pain regarding enunciation.
Being a graphic artist, I had to cringe when Rico on an earlier show was mispronouncing the word "moire" while describing Spocks workstation gizmo :)
I know that word too well because it's the bane of all printed media!
I'm certainly not the "sharpest tool in the shed" but I do look forward to every show now and enjoy this community that Rico has created.

Congrats King.

I have to say after working in Radio for 12 years and speaking to people every week for a living, Rico does a very good job. I think I like his approach and love that he enjoys what he is speaking on. I used to do a morning show every week day, and talking to people all by yourself is hard thing to do. Rico has done a masterful job at it.

I think doing a weekly podcast takes a lot of guts and each show improves as time goes on.

Just my two cents.

Anyway, congrats King for the big 500. That is really cool. It's nice having you around.

:cheers
