TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

I saw 40 minutes of one of them once. They lost me at building the fucking starship on the ground in a field like a barn or something. For as fast and loose as Trek plays with physics, ignoring the obvious problems inherent with that for the sake of a plot point was a bridge too far for me.
That I could forgive. What bothered me most was Kirk's entire character arc, which went approximately as follows:
Kirk should've been thrown out the fucking airlock when Spock had the chance. Or at least ended up court-martialed and in a penal colony.
Oh, and by the way, Scotty invented a teleporter that worked at intersteller distances, which rendered the entire premise of the franchise -- TREKKING between STARS -- moot!
Theres a huge difference between a "bad boy" and a competent leader that bends the rules to accomplish big picture goals. Bad boys are largely unsustainable and they can only have a redemption arc long term. A bad boy doesn't reprogram Tue Kobayashi Maru to be the only person ever to succeed. They break the simulator and get a technicality D-.
Not to mention an entire universe history of them being assembled in orbit.
