/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

If this post got your attention, give the short-lived Hyperdrive a shot. It's much more Trek than Red Dwarf and leans more comedy than sci-fi in similar ways. As a "normal people just working a job in space" show, it now watches like a BBC template for The Orville. Hey, it even has Nick Frost^1^ and Miranda Hart in it.
1 - Simon Pegg feels suspiciously absent, although he did land a part in an actual Trek movie not long after this.
If it leans more comedy than sci-fi, wouldn't it be more Red Dwarf than Trek?
It's more red dwarf than trek, but it's more trek than red dwarf.
Aaah, got it.
