After screeds of emails with the "support" team of TeamSpeak it became obvious to me that their lack of support was covering up the fact that they are a bunch of money grabbers.
After emails from myself, Katherine and MindWipe they simply refused to listen to how the STG has been hosting these servers for the past year or so.
I would advise everyone in the community to keep an eye out on their TeamSpeaks, the support team can change the hosting rules any time they wish. I would also advise everyone to watch who you are letting in to your teamspeaks, im starting to think there is a snitch in the community sending off abuse reports to his competition...and this time it isnt ChessMess, even he wouldnt stoop that low, i have an idea who would though since his reactions to the closure of the STG/CJG teamspeak server was one of "ohhhh...i knew that would happen".
The move to the new server has caused some problems with the access list, for now teamspeak is down.

Hey Folks,
Welcome to our 50th Hailing Frequency Episode. Given the relative quietness in the community as of late, we didnt really have alot to celebrate with, so this is a fairly typical show.
K'suan'indra brings us the latest Star Trek Gaming News roundup as always, and following that we talk about the Current State of the MMO Devlopment world and how risky it is at the moment in MMO Development. With Star Trek Online struggling to be developed, the everchanging devlopment world could see the project shelved!
In Mod Weekly this week, we hear about a Star Trek Mod for the Hit RPG, Neverwinter Nights 2, and we get an update on the DJ Galaxy Class for Bridge Commander.
Kinneas had a chance to play a 2 week free trial on EVE-Online - We hear from a long time trek gamer how EVE shapes up. Does it have good gameplay and what would work in STO?
STO-Zone gets a revamp this week and has a fresh new audio bed. Juliano talks about Ship Models this week! Great Stuff!

William Shatner's reading of Exodus: An Oratorio in Three Parts will be released as an audio CD this week by the Jewish Music Group.
As reported by the Jewish News Weekly, the performance of Exodus, read by Shatner and accompanied by the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra in 2005, will be available for the first time on audio CD.
Shatner though highly of the production, making arrangements to have the two performances recorded. "On the Saturday night that most of this record is taken from, my thrill was connecting with the audience the way we did," he said.
In addition to the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, which had a membership of seventy-five people, a choral group of three hundred and fifty accompanied the reading.
Shatner also has another project in the works that touches his Jewish roots, The Shiva Club. "'The Shiva Club,' which is a movie I am attempting to make sometime soon, is about crashing a shiva, if you will," said Shatner. "A couple of comics crash a shiva. I could have, I suppose, made it an Irish wake, but the shiva I was more familiar with.”

Back in 1981 a company opened which would spawn the worlds most best known Star Trek based board game, a game which interplay would base the idea of Star Trek: Starfleet Command from.
The company is Amarillo Design Bureau and is now known as Starfleet Games
Stephen Cole (guy who runs the company) emailed me earlier on last week wondering if STG could open up a section on the board/card games of Star Trek to cover some of the games that Star Fleet Games has released to the public.
Since Amarillo is basically the only company still left from those old days which still has a direct impact on the direction of the card and board game universe of Star Trek I thought that it would be a crime not to give them their own section...so here it is...
Starting today (Saturday 12th) and finishing on late sunday evening the STG, forums, teamspeak, STG videos...well...everything...is being moved to a newer dual core server.
Everyone with a hosted TeamSpeak on STG, watch the front page for the updated TeamSpeak IP.
Also, STG is looking for donatins, the last donations call didnt get anything which means next month we will scrape by with the server costs. The paypal link is on the fourm and at the top of the menu system in the main site, remember folks ever bit helps!
Ships, figures and Minimates feature in the new toys available for preorder for Star Trek fans.
As reported by TrekMovie.com and seen at Diamond Select Toys, Star Trek fans will be treated to new collectible toys, spanning several Star Trek series.
The U.S.S. Enterprise D model will be released in September. It is fifteen inches in length. The saucer can separate from the ship and there are light-up and sound effects, including voice commands from Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
Four decades later, Star Trek still impacts Walter Koenig's career and life.
As reported by The Joplin Globe, little did he know when signing on to Star Trek in 1967, where that road would lead him.
"...The circumstances of my casting were so modest that it didn’t portend anything extraordinary," said Koenig. "I was informed while I was still there at my audition that I had the role. It seemed like an engagement that might work out over several episodes, but I had no idea that it would totally shape my career and my life."
Star Trek only lasted for three seasons, but became successful in syndication. Its popularity led to several spin-off shows and almost a dozen movies. Koenig credits the quality of the writing for the show's longevity. "First of all, I think that it was well-written," he said. "They used science-fiction prose writers to write their teleplays. They had fertile and active imaginations that could bring the adventure and excitement that people were looking for. It also had some intellectual nuances and a social consciousness at a time when we were having to deal with Vietnam and civil rights. It showed the concerns of thinking people."
Koenig enjoys his convention appearances, where he is known not just for his role of Chekov, but for playing Alfred Bester on Babylon 5. "Of course, you're preaching to the choir," said Koenig. “[Fans] are always enthusiastic and supportive. They either remember seeing 'Star Trek' during its original run or caught up with it along the line. They have fond memories, or else they wouldn't be there."
* A recent story on William Shatner located here referenced a Lego bust of Shatner. The bust shown in the Shatnervision video clip was designed by Craig Stevens for the Virgin Radio "Get Shatner" competition. It portrays Kirk as he appeared in the original series and can be seen here.
The Lego bust of Shatner which appeared for the "Shatner Show" exhibition in Calgary, Canada and was discussed by Shatner was designed by Sean Kenney and portrays Shatner as he looks today. It can be seen here.

Taken from screenrant.com
"Screen Rant has received word from someone who has been a reliable source in the past stating that "it's 100% that there will be a new Star Trek trailer with Indiana Jones."
According to the source, the new trailer will be a continuation of what we saw in the teaser trailer - showing further progress on the construction of the USS Enterprise with technicians working on the ship. There will be new audio, but no word on whether we will see or hear any of the cast
members.
So, that means we'll be seeing the new trailer in movie theaters on May 22nd, the release date for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
As mentioned previously, the release date for Star Trek 11 has been pushed back from December 2008 to May 2009."
UPDATE: TrekMovie.com has been told by a trusted source that “things are still up in the air” regarding the next Trek trailer. However there will definitely not be one with Indy 4 or with Iron Man. The source specifically said there wouldn’t even be another version of the teaser (which was shown with Cloverfield).
This weekend on Hard Talk we have Derek Chester, speaking about his latest venture with DC Fontana and IDW on the new 4 series TOS comic novels.
Also as well we have a general chat about scifi, fan made trek shows and trek games from his unique take on things.
Be sure to check it out at via the startrek-gamers player this weekend or via the stg itunes feed, as well as on the CJG radio channels popup.
New pictures taken from the Star Trek XI set have appeared today, showing Starfleet cadets and a vehicle.
As reported by Ain't It Cool News, five new spy pictures have been taken while filming occurred at a California university.
The photos appear to feature Star fleet cadets; both sexes dressed in red, with the women wearing mini-skirts. There are also men and women dressed in gray suits, with the women's skirts being knee-length.
