/c/TenFoward: 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. 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 don't know that I would call four posts by one account all at the same time several days ago as "riddled." I wholly agree with your second paragraph.

There was a lot more than that. Last time I checked (a few days ago), there was a ton of spam that was posted over the past three weeks. Some of those 3-week old posts are still there, which is a long time for content to go unmoderated. And people have been applying for community owner and mod positions to help out, they just haven't been approved yet.

Fair. You're not wrong; I'm just trying to be as objective as possible.

I know that it can be crazy hard for a person who has built a "thing" to share administrative control of that thing, even when circumstances demand it. It took me a good long time to come to terms with that.
