[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] I would keep ideal-Earth, but by no means ideal humans. I would write down a definite chronology (of when it takes place and - generally, not specifically - the history of how it got there, so that writers still have a little creative freedom.) and stick to it. However, the 21st century would be off limits when it comes to major history. Only because major developments like the Eugenics wars are constantly disproven and a source of controversy. Also, nuclear war is so depressing, and fits poorly into a 'utopian' evolution of our society. all-out WW-III will not lead to Star Trek, but instead to a second Stone Age. I would write down the NCCs of 12 starships sequentially and post it in the background of some guys office. However, i would not limit the class to 12, so that writers could make their own if it was appropriate. But you better believe there'd be no 1017 or 956 in there except as old ass ships of a different class. I would do away with the random-nonsequential stardate and make a system that follows the aforementioned chronology. Or at least is impossible to figure out, but sequential. I wouldnt leave the graphics department in charge of writing the histories & encyclopedi�.. and i would make sure that everything was canon. The producers and licensing could never be as lazy as they are now to allow Trek publications to go out and be considered non-canon. Conflicts would still arise, but the publications of licensed material must be considered part of the franchise, carrying the brand name, and therefore be reviewed and collaborated on by the people who write the show. Most of all, i would keep most everything the same so that Star Trek could live an evolve like it has, just without the growing pains ive mentioned. After all, STar Trek, the way it exists right now, is still a source of pleasure for all of us and i wouldnt want to stifle what has gone into it from all the writers and artists who contribute.. just guide them around their mistakes. Oh, Neelix would be right the fuck out the door too. Goddamn asshole, he was. [/QB][/QUOTE]
