    Didn't know if this Question was asked.

    What got you into Star trek?

    For me, It was in the jeans. My mother was an original Trek Fan. I was exposed to TNG very young.

    I grew up with Star Trek.... The Original Series. I loved the characters, the stories, the "boldly going"... it was my chance to get out of very rural Georgia one each week. I still live in very rural Georgia, and appreciate it much more than I did then, but I have never lost my love for "boldly going".

    I had some behaviour problems as a child (ADHD) and nothing seemed to calm me down or make me stop or let my parents have a break, until one day my mother turned on the TV and it was the first airing of TNG on british TV. (she had wanted to see what it was about)
    She told me i'd planted myself infront of the TV and sat there for the whole 45 minutes completely enthralled.
    So star trek was the cure! I had toys to keep me busy and my parents VHS'd the show for me to watch on demand.
    Then DS9 came about and I continued my trek with them.
    Then around the start of Voyager my problems were under control, so yeah, fun times Smile

    Quite simple: Parents were Trekkies, and I was 2yro when TNG came out and grew up watching it every week with my parents. I didn't REALLY get into it until I was in Grade 7, which was around the same time the DS9 Dominion War arc was just starting, and I remember borrowing my friends Star Trek Encyclopedia and reading it cover to cover.

    To this day I'm still a walking font of Trek minutiae.

    In High School I joined a Star Trek Play-By-Email-RPG that was run on Yahoo Groups, even ran one of my own for a while, and I've written a few Trek Fan-Fics. (One I never finished, but have plans to rewrite, and another that is currently on Hiatus while I work on other stories)

    Games like Starship Creator, Elite Force, Dominion War, Starfleet Academy, Starfleet Command and STO certainly didn't help either.

    I still long for and dream of the day for a Single Player Star Trek sandbox RPG (like Skyrim) where you start out in the Academy and work your way up.

    My mother is a huge Trekkie like me. My father hated the show, I remember watching TNG with my mum when I was very young and I've been hooked ever since! I plan to go to the next Destination Star Trek I couldn't make it this year.

    My first Star Trek game Elite Force 1 which lead into Bridge Commander, SFC3 and then STO/Bridge Crew.

    I got interested in Star Trek (TOS) when my father told me about it. After that I was completely hooked. We always watched it together on weekends. Honestly, I like all Star Trek, TOS, TNG, and whatnot. I first started playing STO after browsing “Star Trek” online. It’s absolutely amazing.Miranda

    I wasn't really into star trek at first, my uncle watched TNG when I was a kid but I never liked it so i ended up not picking up the show until I got older. I started watching re-runs of DS9 back when Spike TV was still a thing, mainly out of boredom and ended up loving it. After that I started watching everything star trek related and got into the elite force series.

    Was the same here was not interested in any science fiction when I was a teenager back in those days kids at school would pick on you more if they found out that sort of thing. But I had just come home late in the evening to check in on my foster parents and turned my head to the TV and it was at the right moment to catch the Enterprise D from the Episode "The Last Outpost". I was hocked in a few Moments on seeing this mighty ship with her glowing engines. I think it was at this point my internal love of Trek switched on next thing I know am sitting down to watch it and it was all up hill from there.

    Like Nova I too had the ADHD and it was a very crap time growing up being in a foster home. Then Voyager aired and it was like looking through the looking glass one ship on there own with just each other cut of from there family's I felt such a connection to the show that it too was my escape.

    My dad *loved* TOS and watched it when I was less than 10 years old. My first episode was “The Tholian Web” and I was completely mesmerized by the mystery and visuals. Whenever the show aired, I wanted to watch more. THEN The Motion Picture came out and I stood in line with my dad opening night. The theater was PACKED and I remember people cheering at the new Enterprise – like standing, clapping and whistling. It was an experience!

    Sure, I got some toys and comics … BUT THEN, the Wrath of Khan came out. My deal with Star Trek was solidified when, one day, “Space Seed” was on TV. As soon as it was over, dad and I jumped in the car to go to the theater. We made it during the previews and then watched the movie. Seeing that connection, and crying after
    Spock died
    has kept me on this journey.

    This question may tax my memory banks a bit.

    I was not able to see the TOS broadcasts as a teen, and first saw a few in 1975 while at a Navy training school.

    In 1979, several things happened. I bought the first edition of Star Fleet Battles and played it a lot with a wargame group, I went to my first SF convention, ST/TOS was on my local TV stations and ST/TMP was released.

    After that I was hooked.

    Similar to Scar, I got exposed to TOS by my dad. He wasn't super-huge into it, but he'd occasionally watch the reruns on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon (this was back in the 70s).

    When my parents mae the colossal mistake of letting me have a TV in my room at like, the age of twelve, my sleep habits got vaporized, as one of the NYC local stations would do The Odd Couple at 11, then the Honeymooners, then TOS at midnight. I'd watch the first half, then cut over to Letterman.

    Somewhere in there, I'd get a solid two hours of sleep. Smile

    I grew up with Star Trek.... The Original Series. I loved the characters, the stories, the "boldly going"... it was my chance to get out of very rural Georgia one each week. I still live in very rural Georgia, and appreciate it much more than I did then, but I have never lost my love for "boldly going".
    Aren't we just peas of the same pod. Not only do you live like 3 hours away from me but I also have a ship named Chickamauga, I camped on that battlefield as a youth.

    I didn't get much of a chance to watch Star Trek until I got to University as I didn't have a chance to watch any series other than some rerun episodes, mostly of TNG. Once I had my independence I started from the beginning and watched every episode from every series and I was hooked from there.

    That IS very interesting. On my main, all of my ships have names of either Revolutionary or Civil War battlefields in Georgia.

    For me the first step was actually Star Wars. My parents introduced me to sci-fi with the Star Wars movies and I absolutely loved them. Then a new show was premiering that my parents wanted to watch called Star Trek The Next Generation. I was in awe with everything, from the ship to Q and the amazing saucer separation scene. Since then I watched all things Trek.
