I liked Ryker. Some times he had his moments of stupidity but hey, he is a million times better then Chekote or however you spell his name.

Why does everyone hate Ryker? I mean he was kind of a pussy and wouldn't take his own command... but what the hell.


Maybe they're jealous 'cause he hooked up with Troi?

Are you kidding me? Troi must have slept with every newcomer to the Enterprise. She was almost as bad as kirk. She was the village bicycle of the alpha quadrant.

I preferred Dr Crusher or Tasha Yar myself. If we are going there.

"Ryker" is a user on this forum, "Riker" is a Star Trek character.  Stop the flaming people, it's not nice.   frown

Hmmm, I don't know about all the other Riker-dislikers, and I'm not sure if it was the character or the actor...he just didn't belong, at least not in the Command Track.  He did not inspire confidence in his leadership ability.  Picard was a winner, as a command person...and Cisco was right up there with him.

Kirk was...well, tolerable.  You had to make allowances for his randiness, but he could put it aside.  And, he had an excellent Number 1 as well as a better crew.  Janeway was a little too indecisive, at times, allowed her emotions to get in the way.

I'd say Janeway was a bit TOO decisive. Chakotay and Tuvok butted heads with her many times only to have her pull rank and get things done the way she wanted.

Riker was always my favorite TNG character (as if you couldnt tell) mainly because he wasnt in command. Ive always found the 1st officers the most intriguing because they are in a unique spot of running the ship (duty rosters, command staffing, postings) without actually getting credit for the day to day operations. And say what you will, when Riker was in command, things got done.

Sorry Ryker, I meant Riker.... hmmm makes ya think tho... smile

Anyways....Riker from TNG should die a most embarrassing and dishonrable death.... sorta like choke on a Tribble or whatever those furry little ball things are (which I hope are a playable race in the game!)

When it comes to names I tend to copy others because I have not the slightest clue and it sounded right. I ask for forgiveness I offer Dew's porn collection as an offering.
