Sucks if mine is taken especially since I own the domain name of my username.

Sure, there are other transporter rooms.

But we all know which one is the best. Just ask the most important person in starfleet history.

I just question why they have to use those rooms at all when they have the ability to do a site-to-site transport. Just beam my ass from the bridge; the fuck do I gotta walk down to another room for?

[-] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 8 points 10 months ago

From my understanding, there's more risk involved in site-to-site than actually stepping on the pad.

Way less if you're going from pad to pad.

When my atoms are being scattered across space, you bet I'd rather walk to the transporter room. I'd prefer a shuttle though.

You are correct. By the TNG era site-to-site transport had become reliable enough that it could be used as needed, but having a pad at one end or the other (or both) of a transport was still safer. It was also more energy-efficient, though that's less of a concern.

[-] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 5 points 10 months ago

Always a good idea to make things efficient, but "the transporters take too much power" is a sentence you will never hear on a galaxy class at least. Those monsters had insane power generation capability.
