So I was watching this first episode of star trek:tng this morning.
In it Riker has to go get Data in the holodeck for an away mission.
Wesley Crusher is also into the holodeck and falls in some water.
But when wesley leaves the holodeck he's still wet :?
A bit of an oversight perhaps :rolleyes:

Praetorian · 20-05-2005 12:57pm

Definitely an oversight. Anything else that a holodeck user has tried to remove from the holodeck vanishes instantly when they left.

I suppose it's possible they tied in replicator into the holodeck to make all the water.

LegacyUser · 20-05-2005 12:59pm

maybe he wet himself

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 20-05-2005 1:00pm

remember when wesley and some kid were playing in the holodeck, and when the door opened for picard he got hit in the face by a snowball.

Star trek writers just don't care.

Perhaps things in the holodeck like food and water are replicated instead of fake. After all, we also see people eating and drinking in the holodeck. Why would you eat and drink fake food?

Sherifu · 20-05-2005 1:14pm

I might buy this.
They mention Wesleys holodeck exploits in the review.
I'm not sure about the replicating idea tbh, when the holodeck program would end there would be a load of replicated ****e left lying around.

seamus · 20-05-2005 1:40pm

They can "de-replicate" it

Ro: maaan! · 20-05-2005 1:51pm

It was said at some point that the holodeck does use replicators or something similar aswell as "photons and forcefields". I'd say food and suff is replicated...

In one episode Picard clearly states that no, holodeck objects cannot exist off the holodeck, but then, in the very first episode of the entire series, Wesley Crusher remains wet after falling into a brook on the holodeck after he leaves the holodeck. So maybe only holographic water can exist off the holodeck…

Doesn't holodeck objects include replicated stuff?

Pigman II · 20-05-2005 2:04pm

Perhaps because it was real snow/water? Don't forget that when the characters played Sherlock Holmes etc they wore 'real' costume that existed outside the holodeck as well as inside. They didn't have 'holographic' costumes which presumably the system could have facilitated?

Have you nothing better to do with your time?
Your not helping you "Unban me!" campaign much by creating multiple accounts and continuing to do the same thing you got banned for in the first place.

Why are people such tards....

Because their parents were unfit to raise humans. They should have stuck to kittens and goldfish

LOL

Anyhoo - back to the topic. Wesley crusher, any mention of what became of him in the Star Trek timeline while the rest of the characters were busy at their splorin'?

LegacyUser · 20-05-2005 4:08pm

because William Shatner

Well delivered, I must say.

As for Weasley, he dropped out and became a weirdo...

NoMoreMrNiceGuy · 21-05-2005 4:38pm

GoneShootin, what did you do to that guy in the prison? He's seriously p*ssed!

You wouldn't happen to be his more attractive brother would you?

NoMoreMrNiceGuy · 21-05-2005 4:47pm

As they say in France....Ce?

Jim · 21-05-2005 4:49pm

Don't be such a tard.
My advise would be to continue with that account and never mention this again.

NoMoreMrNiceGuy · 21-05-2005 4:51pm

Alright fair enough its me.....One question Jim. How do I get to the moderators about what happened my other account? I couldn't even pm on it. Some people can't take a few jokes (that were directed at nobody, only poking fun at star trek) and i suddenly got a full ban unable to pm and all. I need to find out who banned me and why?

Jim · 21-05-2005 4:55pm

Post on Prison.
You've already done that, but, you did it last night at 1am. The Admins aren't on 24hours a day ffs, give it time.

NoMoreMrNiceGuy · 21-05-2005 4:59pm

Thanks for that Jim, and let GoneShootin know I'm back....and he ain't gettin the last laugh....Bye for now.

Oh christ, some people just don't learn....

seamus · 21-05-2005 6:18pm

They don't, do they?

SatanInside, no-one's responded to you because of some temporary technical glitches. You've been banned cos you and your mate came on and acted the tosser, and then you failed to learn and attempted to register twice more before posting in Prison.

Your best bet is to register under a non-obvious nick and keep a very low profile. Even then the admins might spot you.

Goneshootin has nothing to do with it.
