I think that even though DS9 was brilliant there was some things I FELT should have been more explored more
1) The history of Bajor When was their first contact with Aliens? Who founded the Bajoran religion and how the religion controlled what people did in their ordinary everyday lives. Why was the emmisary so important? Where the orbs that were snatched by the Cardassians ended up? How did the orbs affect the Cardassian people who came into contact with them? Did the ancient Bajorans make it as far as Earth in their ships? 2) Why the Founders hated solids. Who were the race that drove them into the omarion nebula? Are this race still around? Have the Dominion encountered the Borg (They must have), How did they escape assimilation? How big is Dominion Space? How do they make new Jem'Hardar warriors and Vorta's? (I know they clone them but we haven't seen the process on screen). What happened to the ships that dissapeared in the Gamma Quadrant? Are they're any POW's in the Gamma Quadrant? 3) Starfleet and Distances What was the Enterprise E doing during the War? (This was never established in the series or movies). How far from Earth is DS9? What is the maximum warp of the Defiant? How many ships are there in the fleet? How big is Federation space? How did the Breen get to Earth without getting stopped?

As for the Borg and the Dominion ... I could imagine them having made contact, the Dominion occupies a large empire, and the Borg probably head out in all directions trying to find new races to "assimilate." Just speculation, but I imagine they could've "met" the Borg.
The Changelings were persecuted by the solids, which is why they hate them.
The Enterprise was doing things such as "showing the flag" inside the Federation and trying to find new members. Didn't you see Insurrection?.
BTW: There IS a DS9-thread, you know.

Oh, yes, and if you read (insert shameless plug here -->) Star Trek: Gamma Quadrant, you know that there ARE POWs still held by the Dominion in the Gamma Quadrant.

Well, according to your ideas on what happened after the war. Don't fool guys like Darkie into believing that series is real, or we're all doomed.

Well, true enough. And no, ST-GQ isn't canon, but hey ...

You'd think it would smack obvious for certain members to post DS9 related questions to the DS9 forum. Alas ...

Well, more like it's one brother, and sibling experiment thread. Or something.
Orgasm.
Hell yeah.

1) * Guess officially around 2300's with the carddies. Earlier by some 600+ years if you count the impulse wooden ships.
* Prophets would have started it all with an Orb.
* Emissary= Mortal connection to immortal Gods
* Carddies started giving back some Orbs, Bajor has around 5 now out of 10 odd
* Orbs are cool artifacts, carddies like.
* Ancient Bajorans would have only managed their own system and Cardassia and anywhere else along the same vector. 'Cause it was the Tachyons that pushed the ship 5.25 ly to Cardassia.
2)
* Founders hate solids simply because its the way of things See Treachery/faith/fivers ep.
* Dominion and Borg? Poss. but doubt it, Space is vast!
* Dominion space and Dominion overall are generally accepted as a little bigger and better then UFP
* Hopefully the ships and crews were prisoner exchanged at the end of the war. But who knows?
3)
* E-D c/o Inssurrection. Doing Flagships stuff and finding allies. By the novels she was in the thick of it though.
* Most people (small fed) rationalize Earth-Bajor into the 150-200 ly range.
* Defiant: Max safe Wp 9, with Phaser energy rerouted 9.5 Absolute max ie ship falls apart Wp 9.8 (Wp 9.982 is the Defiant Pathfinder who got mixed up in Defiant's stats)
* Basic numbers off screen would support an active/frontlines fleet of 2500-3000 + that manying again (atleast) in support (tugs/tender/freighter/tranport et al.). Thus prob max of around 7000 (Others say diff, 20000+ is way to big IMHO)
* 150 members across 8000ly! As a direct line?, furthest point between 2 colonies.
