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.

I've been recommending Voyager as a good one to start with. They're immediately flung to the opposite side of the galaxy, no lore to know, hella Borg stuff, wheelin' deelin' to get home, fewer moralistic messaging, hijinx ensue. They have to smoosh crews with revolutionaries out the gate, an interesting way to interrogate the hierarchical structure of Starfleet. Jeri Ryan's, Borg drone Seven of Nine comes along in season 4 and is a fucking revelation, some of the best character stuff. And peak Jeri Taylor, the VOY head writer with TNG roots.
I love Voyager, but it is one of the series that fans hate on, for some reason. Other than the GOAT ST:NG, the best series is generally considered DS9. The final story arc in the last season is some of the most exciting TV ever.
Enterprise and Discovery are the dogs.
Voyager is the one older Trek show that, as a whole, just doesn't catch me. There's too many episodes that feel like filler, and the show doesn't seem to care about it's premise all that much.
I am turning into dust as I read this.
The older Trek shows are and will always be limited to TOS and TAS.
Oh, you mean the ancient trek shows? From the pre-historic times?
I believe the preferred nomenclature is "Prime Timeline" for the 90s shows. At least that's what feels best in my dusty bones.
