Hi Gang!

I'm Paul the moderator of the WilliamShatner.com site. We have a
thriving community of Bill Shatner and Trek fans on our site.

The reason for this posting is I'm asking for your help as Trek Fans.
On August 31st of this year Bill Shatner will Captain a paintball team
in what is being billed as the largest paintball game in history. One
of the other teams sponsored by a Paintball gun manufacturer
(automags.org) decided a few weeks ago to SPAM our board with hundreds
of posts about Shatner and Trek fandom in general. We need to get even.

This team - which calls themselves the Borg- desire to be #1 in a
certain top 100 listing of Paintball sites online. We want to deny them
this by making the Official Bill Shatner site the #1 site.

In order to do this we need everyone who is a Trek or Shatner fan to
vote for our site by pointing your browser to:

http://www.p8ntballer.com/top/votes.php?id=330

The #1 site right now is at 799 votes we are currently at 163 votes so
we need about 650 people to vote for our site to make us the #1 site.
The catch is that it's one vote per IP address so unless you can change
your IP address (those who dial up get a new one each time they call up)
you can only vote once.

Once you click through on the address above which will register your
vote for the Shatner site you can click on the click here link which
will take you to the standings (right now we are #5.) It takes all of a
few seconds to click the link and you'll be joining other Star Trek fans
who are fighting back against the stereotyped fan and teaching this team
that the Trek fans are not a group to be reckoned with or made fun of.

Please pass this URL onto others who may be able to help. All we need
is to be #1 for even a minute to teach the other team a lesson.

Thanks!

Paul

Captain Kirk and William Shatner are not the same thing.

Ah ah. You quoted him. That's an hour in the Comfy Chair as a penalty.
