Hey there!
First off, I wanted to say on behalf of the entire mod team that we hoped this place would be successful but none of us expected to reach over 1,000 subscribers in 96 hours. That's incredible and we are extremely humbled and grateful. The community has thrived and we're so happy to see so many people engaging with the community, whether thats posts or comments. Things have really kicked off and we hope things only get better from here!
That being said, we as mods do have some work to do. This community was made with the idea that we would have clear rules written for our users so you knew when to expect intervention from the moderation team. We're all pretty new at this and while we have the advice and experience of others who have been doing this for far long, we do have to still update things as they go.
There have been some posts made recently that were reported and brought to light. The mod team has been discussing it behind the scenes and we decided we needed to address it by adding a couple of more rules to the sidebar. If we started removing posts without giving explanations on the side of what to expect, then we've failed in our original purpose for the community. So the new rules being added are as follows:
The first new one is No AI Art. It hurts the creative community overall but is also very low-effort in general. There are many communities in which AI can work but this isn't one of them.
The second is No reposts within 1-2 months. We're keeping the timeframe vague because mistakes happen and you might not be aware of if posts did happen at all. Then there's the factor of how popular that post was and whether it would have easily been seen. However we're really generous and understand that not everyone is active at all times. Reposts within 48 hours? That's something different.
The third new one is Limit of 3-4 posts per hour. Honestly that's probably more than anyone really needs to begin with but we don't want to hamper the community. If things grow and activity does too then we can definitely revisit this but as it stands, posting 5 posts within the space of 30 minutes is essentially spam.
We hope that everyone understands the changes we've made and that more changes may come in the future, especially so early on in the lifespan of /c/TenForward. Thank you guys for your time, patience, activity, engagement and love. We all feel it here at the mod team and reflect it back at you.
Live long and prosper!
What about the rule no reheating fish in the replicators. The smell never leaves
Do replicators reheat? I've been using my phasor, stun for 15 seconds is enough for most meals.
15 seconds? ... oh ... gotta turn it down then ... been wondering why my fish keeps evaporating like that
If your salmon looks like this:
You are cooking it too long
Wait, YOU'RE the one that keeps setting off the ship's alarm?
... That's not the done timer?
You're banished to the leola root clinic (run by our esteemed professor Neelix) for three days
They don’t unless you’re using them wrong. Scrambling atoms is what phasers and transporters are for.
The right tool for the job O’Brien, the right tool for the job.
That's definitely worthy of consideration
Today's fish is trout a la creme. Enjoy your meal!
Fish!

Fish!
I wonder if people in Star Trek ever just put the food back in the replicator to be reconstituted as the same thing, but warmer?
That's the real reason why the saucer separation was invented.
