/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.

Exactly! Flags are about celebrating culture, not violence!

... was COBRA ever friendly? I don't think it rings quite the same as Klingons.

The Klingon empire wasnt ever really nice either. The Federation just looked the other way and ignored the billions/trillions of conquered and oppress people behind the scenes by citing the Prime Directive.

That's a lie. The Federation started the War of Human Aggression. The Klingon Empire has only ever been honorable and awesome. You guys are the ones who fired first at the Battle of the Binary Fort Sumters. There is zero credible evidence that the klingons ever oppressed anyone.

The Klingon Empire will rise again!!!

Cobra had many non-combat initiatives! They ran a number of successful shell companies, they were excellent stewards of many historical relics and people, and they even provided no-cost mental health services for wayward sailors!

Perhaps not. But you have to admit: they stuck to masking protocols during the pandemic while G.I. Joe ran around like maniacs with no regimentation, uniforms, or masks.
