/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.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

I will ask to keep things a lil more civil. We're not trying to cause drama here. What happened in the other place happened but we've got this whole new space to explore and after all, that's what Starfleet is about right? And I mean that for everyone in general. There's no point in focusing on what's happened. Just gotta start putting our first forward into this bold frontier.
However I will say this, the current moderator of the other place is not the creator. The creator is actually a really cool guy who's active in this community and I've had the pleasure of having conversations with. He's a genuinely really kind and wonderful person who shares the exact same ideals that Ten Forward does.
Hello, said creator. Thanks again buddy <3
Feel free to hide / delete this post if you want to cut down on the meta meme navel gazing. 👋 The vibes had felt off for a couple weeks, and finding Ten Forward this morning was a pleasant surprise.
Nah, it's fine. It also gives me a moment to address that general vibe. There have been some people talking about goings on with the other instance or community and I don't really care that much provided people are being respectful about it. We haven't really talked about why we left because we're trying to have this community built off of hope and love and moving in that direction. Confusion and people going "wait, what happened?" isn't a problem but it can be if people start crossing some lines with the answers.
Well shit... Why'd he leave? Or give the current mod mod status?
I didn't agree with the rest of the instance's mods approach to moderation, for reasons that are now very public and obvious.
I'm just the mod here. Even then it's not something I particularly want to get into myself. It's not my place anyway but just not the kinda energy I'm trying to drive.
