It worked great for me that time vold I am quite impressed with it. Your points make good scence, and the images add that special something extra to it. The definition of the image is also well done, as it did not hurt my eyes at all to read it in it's entirety, as where alot of things on the web have clashing colors. ~Myke

Wow, vold, that was impressive and quite clear !! Are those images off of VHS or DVD ?? You know, I'm not sure the show's writers thought that through as thoroughly as you did. Well done. Do you think that this new collective will be more 'sympathic' to new races? Since they see that at least humans fiercely want to stay indivuduals, do you think that they will talk to other races and maybe even propose an exchange of information as a way toward 'perfection'?

Thanks, but i got some glitches in my picture, I reread it & think i wrote some things wrong, like the year or something Yeah I myself am wondering if they thought about it together. The writers are creating a great story unconsciously, lol. I just see a puzzle to be put together, rather then complaining about stupid inconsistencies, "when there's none". The pictures are from trailers or videos I downloaded, from people's website & hmm that's about it. Anyway about the Borg. Yeah that's how they'd find perfection, assuming that's what they want too. But its the Old Borg, That I think will eventually do that too, instead of full assimilation, they just get few volunteers to be assimilated to learn their biology & assimilated all technology 1 each. This way the Borg can then leave them alone to grow & evolve some more. So when the Borg return they got more new things from the same old race. How they decide to do such almost uncruel thing. Well, its most likely the Queen understands this question. "After assimilating the universe, then what?" Meaning they will eventually run out of things to do, so she must find a new method of assimilation. Maybe the new Collective convince her that there’s a better way. Then 2 Collective join as 1 but with 2 People in charge. Equals, just like the Queen always wanted, an equal. A way to convince people to become Borg is 3 ways i can think of. 1. People with terrible life & want to die, but instead they get to have "perfection" lol 2. For Criminals as a penalty worse then death. 3. "The lure of perfection is great" I can imagine a future where Borg are protectors of our galaxy from hostile invasions or internal problems. "Police" Some people in their universe might think the Borg are preparing for something other races aren't aware of. The large number of colossal vessels, Highest tech in the quadrant, if not the whole galaxy. Seems like they are getting ready for something, don't you think so?

That is a good idea, Vold, that the Borg would reform and only ask for volunteers. And I like your reasons for the volunteers. So are you also saying that they realize that by fully assimilating races that they 'kill the goose that lays the golden eggs' ? The golden eggs of that race, new technologies, will continue if left alone or even cross- pollinated from other non-assimilated races??
I'm a little uncomfortable with the Borg as the galactic police force. And are you saying that an extra-galactic invader may look at the power of the Borg and then back off?? You know, look for a less well protected galaxy?

"Golden Goose" Yes I'm sure they realize this problem. That is why they ignore primitive species so that they will grow & evolve in the future for relevant assimilation. "Police" In a manner of sense only, I'm not saying that it'll be their "job" If & when the Borg become "good" we the inhabitants of the galaxy may feel safer with a "Big Brother" almost everywhere in the galaxy, u got problem, call for help to tow us or fix up with Borg effciency, etc. The Borg can even find ways to teach individuals to be efficient without turning them into Drones. A class for perfection. lol as for technology, maybe they will or not give tech to allies like the Federation, so to improve our tech. & also using our creative minds to make it better & the Borg look at that new cretive idea they can assimilate it & improve it somemore, lol a cycle of enhancement. "Intergalactic Visitors" Surely sooner or later species from other galaxies will be able to have travel to other galaxies like traveling to other stars. "The Caretaker, the Whale Probe race, the race that created V'Ger, etc." They all are from another galaxy. Who knows we may find long distance travelers without using any special tech, but use normal engines to travel across galaxies which would take generations to reach to another galaxy by accident. lol From what we see in Enterprise about the 31st century people [Time travel as easy as Replicators , Pocket Dimensions, Regenerative capability, Mixture of bio & techno, etc.] I have no doubt they could traverse to another galaxy by then, but maybe its still in the experimental stages. Who knows But its best to go step by step or century by century. In other words we can't have shows at 26th - 31st centuries just yet, until we are done with the 25th century. Oh ya i forgot to mentioned, about those hostile visitors, that depends on their style, maybe they aren't afraid of Borg, maybe they die trying lol, maybe they are deceivious who knows what tactics they prefer, but I'm sure it won't be that different then we can imagine of.
