mateya Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 So to repeat: If you enjoy DS9 that much' date=' you should support the great actors & writers who entertained you, and buy the official DVDs. It's only $600 for the full series. [/quote'] troy, you are off the topic - again. please stay on The reason you joined this forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnifex Posted January 24, 2006 Author Share Posted January 24, 2006 I just got the NiteShdw 170mb full run of DS9' date=' (a full series per disc, you can't beat it) and I'm as happy as a pig in the proverbial.[/quote'] If you enjoy DS9 that much, why don't you BUY it and give the great actors & writers a nice christmas bonus check? Reward them for all the great work they did on that most-excellent show. They deserve it. I post to the forums because work is boring. Lol, did you post this kinda comment for every one that said they'd dl'd something, or did you save that just for me. :smootch: BTW: Thx mateya, ....way to hijack a thread theaveng, nearly as good as me! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiteShdw Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 If I knew when or why I started this forum I'd let you know, but it was so long ago I can't even remember. In fact, the forum was reset (i.e. hacked) about, what 6-8 months, after it was first started, so everything on the forum right now doesn't include the 'original' forum. I visit this forum at least 1-3 times a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrimmer Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 For me, it was dicovering that there was a new series of Doctor Who available on the net. I downloaded the first episode, converted it to DVD and was amazed at the quality! Then I started poking around, and wanderd onto the forums, I mostly lurk, but lately i've started replying to posts since pretty much everyone here is very cool. (and fun to discuss stuff with) I guess this is the one place on the net that i feel comfortable letting my freak flag fly! (well this and the MST3K Digital Archive Project, but this place is a lot more open minded. Short version, I came for WHO, but I stay for all of you. Hey.. thx for all the replies. I agree about the forum being a good one.. and DETOR' date=' about being shy... glad you've gotten over it. ;)[/quote'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

str82u Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 You tell 'em c4... yeah... I love getting here about the timeTroy starts spouting sale pitches. I was searching for Enterprise and anything I could download SAFELY from the internet. I used filesharing programs like Kazza & Limewire, but I kept running into these little .torrent files that didn't work right. So after running a search for Enterprise and seeing how well organized and supported this site was...well..here you are now. Over this (almost a year) I have definately learned more than I expected to,and not just in the video and tv genre either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quosego Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I'm not sure, but the actor only gets royalties for each episode that is rerun, and whatever deal they made for toys with their image on them. I joined the forum from finding eps on kazaa. Only a few lurkers, and weren't many topics back then, but I got the ball rolling. Thanks in no part to my GOD like presence, this forum has become a success. Excuse me while I go worship a golden calf. I think it was 23 days after you joined that this forum became a succes... :p How weird that's the exact same date as my joining date... what a "strange" coincedence... :p ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theaveng Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Nobody expects you to buy crap like Andromeduh or Voyeur. Only stuff you enjoy. I just got the full run of DS9' date=' and I'm as happy as a pig in the proverbial.[/quote'] If you enjoy DS9 that much, why don't you BUY it and give the great actors & writers a nice christmas bonus check? Reward them. Lol, did you post this kinda comment for every one that said they'd dl'd something, or did you save that just for me. :smootch: The longer you are here, the more you will see I strongly, strongly advocate purchasing tv/audio programs legally, via DVD, VHS, Download off paramount.com, or Simply watching the commercials. I support giving money to the actors/writers who entertain us, and this is how that is done. As J.Michael Straczynski of Babylon 5 says, "If you take stuff for free, your favorite shows will be canceled from lack of monetary income and your favorite actors laid-off. That's a strange way to show your 'support' for a show." And no, I don't buy the "I don't have any money argument" if you're spending ~$1200 a year on hi-speed internet or other huge $$$ items. Downgrade to a slower connection & use the extra money to buy the DVDs or Downloads off paramount.com. -----> And yes this does relate to the original topic (Why I am on the forum). To remind people that if they enjoy what they download, then they should go buy it legally & support the show/actors/writers. It's my main motive.

mateya Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I also post in this forum becose trolls are rare, and those who are here, are easily spoted ;) edit: I didnt name any troll and I dont intent to (they know themselfs who they are) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaveng Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Also easy to spot people who lack manners (name-calling / insults). If you can't make your point w/o that, maybe you should just click "cancel" rather than post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
