/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.

Don’t forget: Star Trek V did knock off Mos Eisley first.

Paradise City from Star Trek V.

At least they did it better than Star Trek III’s excuse for seedy space bar with a couple arcade machines, relatively well-clothed women (relative to Quark’s or the weird cat lady in V, at least), and lots of Starfleet officers ready to report anything shady going on.

Overall, the occasional campy imitation of Star Wars locations is a time-honored Trek.

Now, when Star Wars starts looking like Star Trek, it’s usually horrible. Take The Acolyte for instance; you could already tell the show wasn’t great by its crappy set design. This is supposed to be a seedy cargo ship, but it’s so clean that you’d think you’re on a Federation starship. This lack of attention to detail foreshadows the show’s further failures that lead to me giving up 2 or 3 episodes in.

They did mention Alderaan on DS9

Different. Challenging, I know.

I just cropped it from an existing meme, though I am known for terrible grammar/spelling.
