Can we keep this community civil?

If you feel personally attacked when people voice their dissent against regressive discriminatory behavior, perhaps consider it’s your conscience trying to tell you something.

Discovery makes me sad. Some great premises and actors, very little of what makes/made Trek great. What a shame.

Lower Decks is nothing but joyous snort giggles. Well quite heartfelt at times.

SNW is wonderful fun. You get your progressive post scarcity utopia (yay) and more than a few sensible chuckles. And guffaws. Also the truly grim but still appropriately Trek stories like Under the Cloak of War.

Also I would kill for a proper Bat’leth Boys music video! You have not experienced K-pop until you’ve heard it in the original Klingon.

I used to worry that I hated new Trek. Then lower decks and strange new worlds came out.

All I know is Kirk from the original series (the actor) is pretty anti progressive and from what I can tell closer to a Nazi then a star trek captain.

Of course last time I heard about him was very long time ago though

AFAIK, William Shatner is mainly a self absorbed twat and kinda a pain to work with, which was why he was on the outs with the rest of the crew for decades, but I’ve never seen him regurgitating right wing talking points like Kevin Sorbo or Chuck Norris.

I want to be clear here as a mod before arguments start. In Ten Forward:

You are allowed to hate any Star Trek series or movie(s) that you like.

You are also allowed to talk about how much you hate them all you like.

Just don’t be a dick about it.

And also don’t be a dick about someone hating those things.

CAN I BE A DICK ABOUT NON-STAR TREK THINGS THOUGH?

Yes, but you have to avoid using words like “woke” and “diverse” and “agenda” so you come across as a generic hater.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name

Create post

/c/TenFoward: 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.
