/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.

They do look a bit high.
That's just Kirk being insecure about his height.
OP being more insecure.
No wonder he talked the way he did. He was high.
I'm guessing it's not easy to find a boot with the exact appearance, so there was a compromise.
Future people are very insecure about their height.
Bald people however.
Well I guess I’m going no where… Asian man showing up in a 2370s standard duty with an Ensign pip.
Look this was my cosplay on Saturday at STLV (the day of the VOY reunion). I know what I’m about.
EHK: Emergency Harry Kim, activate when you need an ensign to disappoint.
Stunt double!
That's amazing Ever-Ensign Hopesdead!!
An ensign to disappoint, or an ensign to disappoint you.
An ensign to disappoint.
YOU want to be CAPTAIN!? You haven't even passed the Kobayashi Maru.
At least I haven't failed it 17 times yet!
I don't know if he wants a command position or an engineering position... 🤔
Just ask them for the stardate.
I posted it before but...
...a prevailing fan theory from /r/DaystromInstitute was Starfleet changed their uniforms and badges so often it was to help with time-displaced officers. Knowing the uniforms helps you ID if you've gone back in time and the general time period. If you see Starfleet emblems on uniforms you don't recognize...you're in the future!
Back then, command.
