Tuesday stroll down Memory Lane

@Data1001 posted a thread lately that caused me to browse through threads that I had created. I read through the thread where my little bro-mance with @Bylo Band started. I saw a bunch of familiar names in the thread. It got me to wondering about my first thread. I'll grab that and link it in a minute.
What was your first thread? If it was on the old forum, then a summary is fine, if you remember. Or grab your first one from this forum and post the link. Or just pick one that brings back some good memories. Post it here if you want to share. Or just enjoy your own personal stroll down Memory Lane.

Sorry, @{DD} Smelly !! You were the most recent "victim" of my attitude about polls. I feel like I owe the whole forum an apology today. So...
I'm honestly sorry to any who I harassed about a poll that you posted. I've recently learned that it's quite rude and doesn't actually serve the community. I shall endeavor to improve my contributions to the forum.
No hard feelings. I was a little salty about your first couple comments in that thread, but once you provided some context for them, you made a really good point. In the end, your input gave me more to consider going forward, and hopefully it will help me create more effective polls in the future.
Nobody’s perfect. Least of all me in that thread. I’m just glad it ended with everyone shaking hands and making up, more or less.
As far as my first thread, Idk, it was probably an overtly biased poll on the old forums.
But this reminds me of how unselfexplaining the game is, e.g. calculations in Gauntlet, Arena, AND shuttles vs Galaxy and so on. Fortunately we have some math folks here who figure it all out and share their wisdome. Otherwise STT would be really lame for me.
DB started putting better tutorials in the game. WRG has some work ahead still, but yeah, it's a good thing there's some helpful players here.
Riker's Angels: Sito/Seska/Pazlar
I broke down all 20/45 cadet missions that trio could clear and what rewards you could earn on all levels of difficulty for those missions. This thread was notable because that was where I introduced the term "Riker's Angels". Since the old forum is designated for the scrap heap, I've copied and pasted that first post. Leave it to me to write a first post that takes four clicks to finish scrolling down. I like to think it was informative and helpful, at least. I've replaced the original image since the original post no longer displays it.

It’s come up in enough threads I decided to just make a post all on its own. For players wanting to pare down their M-F cadets to as few as possible, there is only one combination of three personnel who can be used in all three challenges and can clear at least one mission in each challenge on Epic. That triumvirate is:
Cadet Sito Jaxa/Ensign Seska/Ensign Pazlar
Here are the missions they can complete, along with the items you can farm from those missions. In all, they can complete 20 of the total 45 missions (three challenges, five missions per challenge, three difficulty modes per mission).
Obviously, you will need to clear other missions in order to get to all of these, so you will still need other cadets up front. Consult DaiMon Darmok’s thread, Cadet Challenges: Essential Crew and Optimal Pathing for further advice.

The first thread I posted was on the 22nd of that month, asking how I could get to the faction center on Xindus, since that planet was hidden behind the Delphic Expanse banner on my tablet, no matter how I zoomed or scrolled (also a n00b question, as I didn't know about being able to go directly to faction centers from the shuttle bay — which admittedly was more complex than it is now, since you had to click on an "i" information icon on the faction card and then choose "visit faction center").
Alas, I didn't quite hit the ground running — unlike some people here [coughcoughTraviscoughcough].
Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.
~ Data, ST:TNG "Haven"
Hope you did that coughing into your sleeve and washed your hands, @Data1001.
I had to check it out. Great gif! So many of the suggestions in there made it into the game. Still no Cardassian Prisoner Picard.
If you want to feel a little better, here was my fourth thread. Full on noob. Three whole comments. And it deserved less.
Second was "I'm fleet shopping" (which went tremendously well) and third was another poll (surprise!)
I agree that Travis pretty much knocked it out of the park on his first try.
I don’t eee it in the thread. Spongebob rules! I gotta see it!
Re-posting for your convenience. (I missed it the first time too.)
Ha!! That was awesome!! I did see it but I guess I missed It cuz I was looking for Spongebob. That’s totally hilarious!
I forgot all about that rabbit hole, @Bylo Band. You and @Flemming need counseling, and I am never going camping with either of you. Also, I appreciated this:
@eXo | SilverRose, you do what you want, but I think you're missing out by not making that your signature. That's some good stuff.

I think he's worried about becoming food when that small preparedness kit runs out.
I'm worried @Bylo Band and/or @Flemming won't even wait that long!
They might not if they figure out how to turn you into a compass or something.
Seriously though, I found their thread to be entertaining, if mildly disturbing.
I was thinking the same thing. Or get put into a replicator to make food

Lots of familiar names in that one. I haven't seen them mess up arena rewards since then, but there is still a hiccup with event schematics here and there.

I didn't get it until the words started "playing" to the spong Bob theme songs. xD (I had to watch it a couple of times.)

I was surprised that there where people who didn't want the intro and outros removed from skirmishes. I guess we are going to get that after all (sort of).
