-When the comm is moving superfast, we're bound to get some double comments from time to time. I've had a few suggestions on how to handle this. Please keep the following things in mind:
*Double comments should be treated either as a character mistake or ignored. If you go wiht ignoring, to be fair, ignore the one that is second chronologically.
*Double comments can be deleted by me and the OP (unless I am the OP, at which point I hold ALL THE CARDS! WAHAHAHA!) if you make a comment you want deleted, let one of us know.
*You should also try refreshing stuff before you post, to keep it down to a minimum.
If you have other thoughts, please let me know. We'll work something out.

Admiral,
How's it hanging?
I'm keeping good watch on "your" ship like you told me to. Helps that I have the biggest bunch of freaking geniuses in the fleet. Seriously, what did I do to deserve them?
Yeah, I attached the report you wanted on the sudden rash of off-ship deaths. Let me know if you need anything else.
Jim.

Thanks for the report, Jim.
I'd have thought by now you'd have realized that no ship is given a random crew. Everyone is temperament tested and matched for optimum efficiency during the mission.
By the way, stop abusing the enterprise-all list. I'm still on that thing, you know.

Lieutenant Sulu,
It has come to my attention that you were seen chasing Ensign Chekov through the halls brandishing your katana the other day. While I find this completely awesome, you might want to keep it in the bedroom from now on. People are complaining.

Temperament-tested, eh? What, did they send a bunch of suicidal wack-jobs up here with me?

Well, not suicidal. We didn't know that part 'til later.

Ensign Chekov,
I know you're the one who drilled the peep hole into Yeoman Rand's shower.
Stop that, or I'll make Bones prescribe porn. Have you ever seen federation-sanctioned porn?

I will give you seven gummi bears if you dance around the bridge and make Ensign Chekov blush.

1. New death statistics for you. In the last three weeks, we lost 8 crew members. 15 others went missing in Engineering, presumed used for experiments.
2. I’ve been thinking about your last mail. I can see most of the crazy on the surface. But what's the deal with Uhura?
3. I gave Spock seven gummi bears to make Ensign Chekov blush, and he ate them but didn't do it. :( Can I court-martial him?

1. Stop losing crew members. It's hard enough to get low-ranking officers on your ship as it is.
2. She was supposed to be assigned elsewhere, but used her feminine wiles on Spock.
3. No.

We've not gotten any sign-ups for the suicidal mission to the planet of the Big-Breasted Maneaters. If you don’t sign up, I’ll start choosing people at random.
