Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!

I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.

Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.

No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.

No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.

No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.

Keep Topics Trek Related - This is a Star Trek community, so of course discussion should stay in that area! That means no real world politics.

A show about a intergalactic federation of planets hosting different species of beings shouldn't be... political? That's precisely the only thing it has to be.

Since it's a series; sometimes it's a romance, action, mystery, suspense, thriller, and even comedy. All of which could be argued for or against, but to say it shouldn't be political is like asking it to ease-up on the science-fiction. How?!

The only ones wanting that are those whose preferred political views get routinely destroyed by the show (and common sense). I don't know why anyone gives those idiots the time of day.
