/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. 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.

If you can read this

We have not violated the treaty of Algeron

What are the odds there's a Prime universe Galaxy class with a lift-kit on their nacelles, ~~rolling-coal~~ venting-plasma, with an aftermarket aft tractor beam hauling 3 runabout shuttles, flying a Terra Prime flag, a silhouette window decal of Phillip Green giving the finger, and when he docks with a star base the captain constantly complains about the price of dilithium.

You've never seen anything until you've seen a Constitution Class with truck nuts.

From a nearby D7

"Only two?!"

The saucer section is a giant spinner

I doubt there are many galaxy class shift unaccounted for by Starfleet

rant about how ships in Star Trek always face each other at the same orientation despite being in space

"His pattern indicates two-dimensional thinking."

I think it's part of the universal translator. Based on commonalities in construction between post-warp species, they can tell which way is up usually. That's why the Borg and the Gorn are so scary. Their ships don't have an up

They're obviously not all on the same galactic plain at all times but it's be customary if 2 ships are to meet at a certain spot from different directions it'd be customary for them to adjust their pitch yaw and roll to match

I can read upside down. So should I still flip it over?
