Risa: Your Home Away from Spacedock

Welcome to Risa

All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.

Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not KlingonThis is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.

  • No harassment, brigading, or trolling
  • No bigotry
  • Keep the banter playful, not hostile

Rule 2 — No Prohibited CargoSome things aren’t welcome aboard.

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

Rule 3 — Keep It TrekPosts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.

  • Crossovers are fine
  • Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock

Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole
You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.


If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.

Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.

Someone donated to my Ko-fi the other day and said "Those of us that appreciate ALL Trek need to stick together!" and I agree. I may not like all of it. I've got my issues with DS9. But I love and appreciate all of it because it is fucking Star Trek! Even the worst Star Trek is better than 95% of other television out there, at least as far as I'm concerned. Again, there's an exception to every rule with Section 31 but still. Even then I appreciate it for what it is. An attempt at something new. It didn't work for me but I'm not going to fault them for trying new things when Star Trek constantly screams "EXPLORE STRANGE NEW WORLDS YOU DUMB FUCK AND BOLDLY GO WHERE NO ONE HAS GONE BEFORE YOU ABSOLUTE TWATWAFFLES"
