/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'm pleased for three reasons:

  • Kurtzmans trek fucked the timeline and ran with it. Fine, do it for one film but why poison the entire franchise? Its made everything a big confused mess.
  • The recent series have deified TOS. Why?? The good thing about the TNG era was it accepted TOS as cannon but didn't hamstring itself to it and updated everything top-to-bottom so it worked in a modern context. Stories were compelling to a modern audience and the look/feel worked in the current era. And why does Spock have to be in everything??
  • The writing is lazy. Its probably because theres so much cannon now that producers/writers feel like if they dont follow it it won't be trek. Also, they've let cannon write the stories for them. Its just boring to watch. Ten episodes per series feels like too much.
