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.

It's a serialized 90s show, you don't have to watch the early seasons to understand the later ones. Pick any episode and just watch, as long as it isn't a 2-parter, you'll likely get the gist of what's going on. There are some longer story arcs that do span multiple episodes or even seasons, but the information is more at the "Lore" level than "necessary to understand what's going on in this episode".
Eg, if you knew the back story, you'd have had a better chance at catching the pun in the last sentence. But all you're missing out on is maybe exhaling a bit quicker as you read it and an eye roll.
Hell, if you don't want to watch all the episodes, you might be one of the rare people who might even enjoy the clip episodes and how much they tried to set up an in-universe reason to be showing clips from previous episodes. Like Riker's memory parasite.
