/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 thought I've watched a lot of Trek ... I've seen all of TNG, VOY, half of TOS, a few episodes of DS9, DISCO, and currently watching SNW Season 2 ... and I've seen most of the movies
According to this Comic Book Resources ....
https://www.cbr.com/star-trek-every-tv-episode-movie/#how-many-hours-of-star-trek-are-there
and that’s not counting the films, nor the 20-50x you’d have to rewatch it all to have the near-encyclopedic knowledge of all of it we all here do, nor the decades that would take…
let alone doing all of that while not going completely insane…. mwahahahaha!
Sometimes I think that's why people claim they don't like the new shows. They just can't put in the time it takes to get the same level of engagement wit it.
I also think that's the best part of a lot of the new shows. You can watch them on a casual level, but when we do bring a near encyclopedic knowledge of it all, well, we're watching kind of a different show. Like in Picard when he's holding that flute and it's like 'well shit, I guess I know where this is going'. Like, not to put too fine a point on it, but new fans are watching the show. We have a complete set of tamarian meme subtitles going the whole time 'Picard, his flute in his hands'. I think that's really cool.
I don't like earlt Discovery because it feels wrong in ways that make me wonder if it wasn't originally a non Star Trek project that got adapted and they killed the captainI liked (not that asshole). I haven't cracked into Picard yet though.
