That statement above is the best I've heard on The Trek Prop Zone. The basis of the forum is great but the politics is nuts. It's like a classroom! If you belong to this forum, it is better to stay neutral on all subjects or risk being shamed by its bullies. If the forum would be open to the public as other forums are, there would be more public complaints. A well managed forum is the RPF at http://www.therpf.com/. Although not strictly Star Trek it has posters from all Sci-Fi interests. Any direct copyright issues or member bashing is discouraged.

Let me guess...Both of you have were banned from this board? The TPZ is the best of it's kind on the web and the best moderated.

Glad you are haunting the RPF loser.

Here - Here
The Trek Prop Zone Is run by an egotistical Jack Ass, wanna be God Like.
follow the rules or be bannished, No freedom of thought on this forum.
It has hundreds of members but you just see the same few posting.
everyone else knows better as they will be beat down.
If you do not agree with those few or the owner you will be kicked from the mighty group.
at last freedom of speach.
this is a group of I want to purchase bootleg props people, not prop collectors or builders

Kudos to Trek Lover

I am a member of both Sci-Fi forums.
It is against the rules to write outside these forums because problems should be at
the forum level but the TPZ has crossed the line on fairness and freedom of speech.
There are many members who feel exactly the same. It's time to ante up!

TPZ http://www.thetrekpropzone.com The Trek Prop Zone
RPZ http://www.therpf.com The Replica Prop Forum

The TPZ cannot be compared to the RPF and it is not a question of being banned.
The TPZ has many members but few active posters if you look at the ratio.
The TPZ is only Star Trek and is a private forum, therefore not open to public scrutiny.
The TPZ is a group of I want to purchase bootleg props people, not prop collectors or builders as indicated by Trek Lover.
The TPZ is way too political.

The RPF has a higher ratio of posters, more artistic people who share rather than dictate.
The RPF is the largest forum of Sci-Fi prop collectors and builders.
The RPF, although a Star Wars forum has a full spectrum of Sci-Fi interests and maintains peace/harmony.
The RPF is a public forum so anyone can see if the rules are fair etc.
The RPF is a true forum of prop collectors and builders.

More members of the trek prop zone should write what they feel is right not only the few that dominate it!

Everything written here about the TPZ is a lie. The TPZ is the best prop forum with the "who's who of Star Trek". These posts are from disgruntled members who were removed from the elite, a bunch of losers.

The TPZ Rules!!! You Guys are a joke!!

Why would you hate some one for telling the truth? and for having their own opinion?? feels kind of like the TPZ Right here. hate is a very big word for such a small person Roger.
 52 days ago by   OntheTPZ +105 Votes
Hey Steve Tessier Hater, I'm a member on the TPZ and not him. I've read all the TPZ stuff on Rip-Off -Report and heard enough about it on the TPZ.

The truth is that the TPZ is childish and members are still posting that one guy is against them. Paranoid fools is what you are if you are posting that "all is great with the Trek Prop Zone." No forum online is perfect and TPZ has major flaws. One is, I have to agree with any discussion there so not to be bullied into submission - Get it, so grow up and get a life.

Roger, why don't control your paranoid fools.

And Mark, you lost the Captains Chair because you lost not because one guy sabotaged the vote

Roger is a Big Eared Fat Chump
that is for sure
Hey Roger, YOU ARE FAT! It hurts doesn't it? check your feelings.
You are a Fat Pig that runs a bs prop forum. Hahahahahaha you are about to cry because it hurts deep inside and you know you are fat.
why don't you go eat to make your self feel better then try to call the ship on one of your bootleg toys and talk to dr. McCoy, tell him how fat you are and how stupid you look in a costume Hahahahaha but now I will give you some advise to help, Rember Roger you can loose the ugly pounds but you can not loose the ugly face.

Later Fat-So

This is what Stinks about the The Trek Prop Zone, RU listening Roger? Forums online can hurt people even if it is civil, freedom of speech is required. The TPZ has NO FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Roger is the Hitler and can stop any thread anytime!!!

Like life there are rotten apples. Roger, the owner (UFP-1701) and creator was the first rotten apple. Suffice to say the forum would be better WITHOUT him. He is a loud obnoxious and self serving clown who has little knowledge on anything even though he works for NASA. He must be the Janitor!

Whenever a thread is hot with Roger and the top moderators I get PMs and so does everyone else mimicking these wanabees and there posts. I you disagree with a post for heavens sake don't post. Only the small group of the Roger gang can disagree.
There are hundreds of members, 99% of them are nice people but what can you do, it is Roger Manley's forum.

If the forum was open it would be the laughing stock of Star Trek.
 48 days ago by   Supporter of the TPZ -100 Votes
Oh but you are the laughing stock of Star Trek dude. An outsider looking in with no place to hang your hat, A pathetic lowlife Steve Tessier you are. Calling names, Roger has done more for this hobby than you or your John Long Cronies will ever do.

You should be on your hands and knees begging him to take you back.

Anyone that wants to know, the guy behind all of these posts is Steve Tessier, he was booted from EVERY trek forum on the web for trolling and making threats against the members.

Know him for what he is, a Jackass. And step clear of his piles of steaming BS.

To the Supporter of the TPZ

You're not going to pull off the Steve Tessier stunt with me. Your are one of the top rotten apples changing you name or an ignoramus! This bullshit is from the Trek Prop Zone. I'm a regular there, Star Trek is great, the forum concept is great, the Trek Prop Zone politics stink period! The forum is childish as claimed in this complaint.
Open the forum to the public and you'll have fewer joining members because the dialog says it all.

I'm also a member of most Star Trek forums and this guy Steve Tessier is not even on them which means "the top rotten apples" are trying to say one guy is pissed and the rest are happy. LOL What a crock. To TPZ members join the complaint!

What's next? Include JL and Brent?

The trek prop zone, a fair forum that greets Star Trek fans - NOT.

The majority of members of the Trek Prop Zone are nice people!

I build my own Star Trek props and collect them; Roger only collects other people's work. Star Trek props (and other props from movies) are neat and many people find them fascinating. The Trek Prop Zone is a forum devoted to only Star Trek props replicas. It is a place where builders can connect with collectors. Roger Manley is the owner and he makes that perfectly clear. If you eliminate Roger from the Trek Prop Zone, there would be no complaints.

Roger was at DragonCon (a Star Trek convention) a month ago. The convention was good but Roger complained about everything. That's how he is perceived on his biased forum of Star Trek Props. If Roger doesn't like your post on his forum, it is stopped as written in previous complaints. Roger is a harsh individual that has caused members to quit his forum or stand up to him and get banned. Many great Star Trek prop builders are gone forever but some are still around on The Replica Prop forum (RPF). In all the forums I have visited online, only the Trek Prop Zone is biased to this extremity.

Roger has a record of his trip at DragonCon posted here:
http://s71.photobucket.com/albums/i143/thetrekpropzone/?start=0

The owners of the Trek Prop Zone are Mark in the black TPZ shirt with red top. Roger has one photo of himself at home with a red TPZ shirt. He is also in Hawaii or something with Richard Coyle, another crony at the Trek Prop Zone. On the right you can see more Star Trek props and Roger at a few prop parties and gatherings. You get a glimpse of interesting Star Trek props made by members of the Trek Prop Zone.

If you agree with this post then sign up and speak your mind, no one likes a bully!

I love the board, best out there. Roger is a great guy. I think you need to seek counseling for real.
 46 days ago by   OntheTPZ +80 Votes
Absolutely Propnut!

There are tons of good people over there. Your post is 100% true. The hobby is great. It's the owner, Roger Manley and his henchmen that make it childish. But worse than that, TPZ is a place when you can be ridiculed and that hurts members. TPZ Rules LOL, Roger Rules!

The TPZ henchmen like to claim that all negative posts are from one banned member. Many members that told me they are afraid to post and who wouldn't be. If you were discovered, you would be banned for telling the truth. Banned from your other friends. The owner, Roger Manley, is afraid of the truth. He is a coward. These types of individuals are all the same everywhere. They hide behind there PC and love control. When you meet this people in person, they are wimps and wannabes.

Any complaints about the FRAUD on the TPZ are Roger Manley's own fault. He created the "Houston We Have a Problem" thread for people who are getting ripped off by members who paid for props and never saw them. He oversees the thread and give the member a ultimatum to deliver or get banned. But Roger has these banned member's details, so why not hand them over to the people who get ripped off? You NEVER see Roger get ripped off? Thetrekpropzone.com is a dot com, a commercial website where unlicensed Star Trek items are bought and sold. Who cares about the legality of it, Roger Manley is the owner and responsible for his members, period! You cannot run a website without following the common rules of decent people. There are more things that members can post here but that might give them away.

To those who are active on the TPZ forget about the threads, PM the people you want to deal with and start you own network of members bypassing the wimps and wannabes.

Roger, look at you active posters, what a small group!

David Brent

This is a complaint board about TPZ

Nice idea to suck up to Roger LOL but why would people who disagree with YOU need counseling?
 44 days ago by   Trek Lover +81 Votes
Roger is the titty sucker here, there are a few followers that have not been slammed by Rogers mighty fist...they will see the light soon enough, when it doesn't work for Roger or he sees a chance to flex his mighty fat he will act quickly.
Richard Coyle, that is another story in it's own. Hahahaha what a joke.
 42 days ago by   OntheTPZ +64 Votes
There are a few builders on TPZ, the rest are just buyers. The builders are smart people. I look at their work and make comparisons to my own. But these builders are busy BUILDING not posting. There are people who just post all day long like a bunch of old ladies gossiping. The complaint that started here is an issue on TPZ and that won't go away. You got the owner having a small collection of pieces and a big mouth. He is unaware that many builders have major prop collections. Why share the info with Roger. Like I posted, members laugh at him. Also, there are communicator/phaser hounds that dominate the place, truly childish. The RPF is a better forum. I'm glad I'm into more than just Trek, I'd go nuts with those old farts.
