/c/TenFoward: 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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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. 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Yep.
TOS fans in 1987: "This Next Generation show is nothing like TOS and ruins everything about Star Trek!"
TNG fans in 1993: "Deep Space 9 isn't about exploration, so it ruins everything about Star Trek!"
DS9 fans in 1995: "Voyager isn't going to have Klingons or Romulans and the only Vulcan is black, so it ruins everything about Star Trek!"
Voyager fans in 2001: "Enterprise is a prequel, so we know exactly what will happen, so it ruins everything about Star Trek!"
Enterprise fans a few years ago- hell, take your pick of bitching.
I think it's stayed TNG and ds9 fans
You'd be wrong. There are people who consider each of those their favorite Star Trek.
I think it's mostly still TOS fans who tend to look down on the newer series as never quite living up to the original. We are of course right to do so.
I'm a TOS fan. It was my first love and will always be my favorite Star Trek. But I cannot disagree with you more. There is a line running all through Star Trek- the ideals of the Federation and why they should be upheld. And that is what is most important about Star Trek to me in terms of living up to the original.
