/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 saw this posted before elsewhere (but can't find it now). In that version, it was stated this was posted in a Star Wars forum, which makes it doubly hilarious if true.
Not quite. It was posted on Tumblr, by a star wars focused account, with star wars tags, so mainly star wars fans saw it (at first).
At no point during the poll was star wars in the lead, but the poll did breach containment and got seen by most of the nerd community there, which definitely did not help the voting spread.
It had to be tumblr because of the useless included comment as a modern day laugh track

what about someone in a stargate shirt
That's who you get your supply from
Treat them nice, they probably think all problems are solved with C4.
C4 solves every problem you have but also has a 97% chance of creating an even worse problem.
Makes me think of Jason from The Good Place.
I'm telling you, Molotov cocktails work. Any time I had a problem, and I threw a Molotov cocktail, boom! Right away, I had a different problem.

Just keep applying C4 until you hit that 3%.
They better tell me where to find one.
And if another person tells me Chulak without giving me gate access, their butt is going to have a foothold situation.
Stargate shirt would be my homie
Indeed.

Star Wars is so heavily merchandised that you really can't tell anything about someone wearing a shirt with Yoda on it, impulse buy at a Wal-Mart. But show me someone wearing a Riker T-Shirt, and I'll show you someone who went to a convention or decided to order a shirt off of a website. More likely to be one of us harmless earnest dorks who knows who did what at Tenagra.

Me, staring at a guy in a Star Wars shirt: "Bet he thinks he's the center of the universe."
Me, staring at a guy in a Redshirt: "This is the kind of person that'll catch a phaser for me."
It's a bit of a shame for Star Wars that Darth Vader and stormtroopers have become so iconic.
I chuckle whenever I think of the dude who got arrested for following around ICE agents with a speaker playing the Imperial March.
This dude understood the assignment, and had the balls to pass the test.

Not all Star Trek fans are deep thinkers.
Not many Star Wars fans are deep thinkers.
And that's all I have to say about that.

Star Trek is just infinitely better and it’s a shame it’s always compared to Star Wars
Star Trek and Star Wars are apples and oranges. One doesn't have to be better because they're totally different things.

So you're saying you'd participate in the Star Trek wars, rather than the Star Wars trek?

I dont really know shit about star trek but star wars is extremely overrated, i mean there were a few great movies but like nobody dresses up like characters from the godfather or citizen kane or idk any other great movies really. Idk lotr is super popular and it's awesome but idk lotr was also even better movies and still not as like a religion for people, like people make their whole identity being a star wars fan it's buzat. Idk i just dont get star wars people i guess.

I enjoy Star Wars for specific reasons that I like in entertainment. The ragtag underdog fighting a strong oppressor and winning. The classic fantasy story, but in space. Swords. Small fighters dogfighting more than large ships shooting at each other.
Now, that's entertainment, in an action fantasy judgement. Would I want to live in a Star Wars universe over a Star Trek universe? Absolutely not. Do I agree with the moral guidelines of either major side of Star Wars? Again, not really. I definitely don't like the empire, but even the Jedi are too much of religious fundies to me. I also think the lessons/message of Trek is generally better too.
It's a bit like food that's tasty but not good for you. I enjoy it, but I'm not claiming it's the better of the two.
For me it would depend on what kind of Star Trek shirt it was. If it's just a shirt that says Star Trek then not really. But if they're wearing a fucking Starfleet uniform I will trust them with my goddamn life.
Much less unironic cardassian empire or dominion fans than the multitude of empire fans.
As Star Wars fan and someone who have been following the community for some time, i totally agreed with those people
