[quote name='ZionIsAHomo']This thought first crossed my mind when I saw star trek for the first time when I was like 9...
Why would you ever want to leave? You can literally play god. Create a world as you see fit... Would anyone not love it? "Its only imaginary" Well, life is what you make it. This is just taking it to the extreme.
Anyways... how would you get caught? We're all nerds. We'd know to have the computer remove all the doors from the simulated room and then password protect the program to stop someone else from editing it...[/QUOTE]
"honey? are you in the Holodeck again?....darn he's inthere so much I wonder what program he's running... Leather Bitches of Cornhole 9?!?"

I remember Janeway on Voyager getting into a tuadry affair with an Holodude dispite still having a husband at home, the thought that she may never see him again made her wonder if she should get it on with the Holo or not so they do seem to suggest it
could be considered cheating... but then again Janeway always did come off as a excessively over moralistic tightass, atleast untill the last episode. when she broke every rule in the book to go back in time and save her ship.
In Star Trek they dealt with holo-addiction with Reginald Barclay. He was having an "interlude" with holographic images of Deanna Troi and Dr. Crusher and they weren't pleased, lol.
I think that was the episode where they first state creating holos of fellow Starfleet crewmembers was prohibited or something.
I forget where I heard it but it's always made sense to me:
"the hologdeck will be the last invention humanity ever creates"
Why? because why would you ever go back to real life if you had a true working deck? It'd be the end of humanity and no one would have sex with each other again.... except maybe by accident.
