  • There are a lot of things to like about DS9. I’ll try to name some without spoiling anything.

    One of the main ones is the fact it shows a darker more realistic side of humanity that at the time wasn’t present in other Trek. It feels a little more “grown up,” I guess?

    Another is the caliber of Avery Brooks’ acting (and the rest of the cast,) but Avery Brooks in some of the episodes is just truly amazing…

    • Far Beyond the Stars
    • Past Tense
    • The Visitor

    By second to third season the cast really gels and you just love every single one.

    All the crap O’Brien goes through (you will finally truly understand all the memes)

    Worf joins DS9 season 4 and adds even more great stories and interactions within the cast/crew

    The entire overarching plot of the Dominion war and how it impacts the Federation (federation… heheh)

    The whole Sisko / Emissary / Prophets story line across the entire 7 seasons and how he grows into that role

    All the Holosuite episodes, but especially “Take Me Out To The Holosuite”.

    All the Klingon episodes and interaction… Gowron, Martok, Worf

    There are so many good characters, not just the core / Sr. Officers / main cast

    GARAK… Garak is worth watching the entire 7 seasons just by himself.

    Dukat, Winn Adami

    Liquidator Brunt FCA

    Romulans…

    Ferengi… MOOOOOOOOOGIE… ROM and Nog… The Grand Nagus… and of course Quark… Little Green Men

    THE DEFIANT (one hell of a ship)

    To name a few… I could go on.

    And of course, there are always the oddball episodes that continue to be a running joke within the DS9 community…

    Move along home!














  • Very true. It would be sad to build up a persona on a smaller instance to then have it go dark and take your user with it. Other than losing your collection of “upvotes,” you can just recreate a new user with the same display name on another instance and keep going. 👍

    Holy crap, you can do Slack style emoticons? Huzzah! 🎉
