/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.

Everyone thinks all Orions are pirates but as Tendi said, “somebody had to build all the starships.”

I’m more inclined to like a Klingon who’s just got a different personality than someone like Worf who never shut the hell up about Klingon tradition since he was always trying to prove he was a warrior.

but as Tendi said, “somebody had to build all the starships.”

Relevant comic:

A small, nerdy looking young male Klingon wearing glasses and a button down shirt sits at a table working on a technical drawing on a piece of paper. Two larger, buffer Klingons taunt him: “Hey, nerd!” “Kill any of your enemies today, nerd?” Both shout “Honor! Glory” and leave, and the drawing is revealed to be a warp drive. Some time later the same nerdy Klingon is standing in front of a Bird of Prey. He says, “Finally, I can leave this horrible place.” But before he can board, the two buff Klingons from before return, and shove him out of the way. “Glory! Honor!” They shout as they fly off. The source is whompcomic.com

Who exactly fixes the disruptor cannons or shields? Only Klingon chief I’ve seen is this one

I have a feeling that Worf never shut up because he was raised by humans, so he always felt like he had to prove himself as Klingon

We already had this in the "exchange program" ep of TNG, when Riker goes on the Klingon ship they aren't acting like Worf, especially the "Klingons do not laugh" bullshit.

It's because Worf has a chip on his shoulder because of his human upbringing and his father not dying a warrior's death

Guinan even specifically calls him out on that. "I've seen plenty of klingons laugh." Feels like the only thing they do when the drink bloodwine is laugh and punch each other.
