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. 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’m with you. I’m here for 45 minutes of story that’s wrapped up at the end and you can go on about your day. I think I read once that DS9 (in regards to being on a space station) described as the characters going on a journey since they weren’t on a ship and was immediately not, and am still not interested.
I’m glad that people like it, I’m glad that it’s their thing and that it brings them joy but it is absolutely not for me and that’s okay
I can appreciate the viewpoint, as I was once amongst them. In the early days of Netflix, when they had the rights, I binged my way through a rewatch of TNG, and then a proper watch of DS9. The slow build of characterization goes a long way. Especially with the Ferengi, given the harsh intro to their culture. Don't discount it because of the personal commitment, but rather, judge its effect on your perspective as a result of their storytelling.
Such a slow build up 7 years and I never cared that the bajorans were slaves or disliked the caulkaassians for any other reason than I was told bluntly too.
