TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.

At this point the first contact we'd get is they'd raid the alien ship, find crazy tech that could cure most of the world's diseases and end starvation...but small groups of people hoard it and get rich instead of advancing us 100 years to create a utopia
That or they'd use to tech to try and conquer other countries, inadvertently start another world war and nukes start flying in every direction
You ever watched any of the mirror universe episodes?
Because that's basically what happens. Vulcans make first contact, humans shoot them in the face, loot their tech and use it to build an interstellar racist empire.
The intro alone is worth the price of admission.
This is the type of interesting thing that I apparently miss by diligently always skipping the Enterprise theme religiously every single time without fail.
Looks to me like someone's due for a rewatch.
I'm 3 episodes away from finishing DS9 for the first time and all I can think is "Is that Jeffrey Combes?"
HOLY SHIT! i read that in Weyoun's voice!
(Edit) Also maybe it's the current mood but the Cardassian terrorist cells are really hitting me hard right now. I never thought I would find Demar sympathetic.
He can't take back what he had done, but damned if he doesn't give his all to retaliate against the Dominion.
Fuck Yeah!
And, most importantly, everyone has a goatee.
Oh yeah, very familiar with mirror episodes...at least the ones not discovery.
