/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.

Seriously, this sub caused me to actually break down and subscribe to Paramount+ despite my adamant hatred of our current "just one more subscription service" hellscape
Y'all, I tried to watch Voyager. I really did. I just can't. I'm absolutely loving Strange New Worlds though. Can't wait to check out Lower Decks soon.
c/TenForward: the first hit is free
It was you, ok! I learned it by watching YOU! 😭
Ketracel-white, not even once.
I was about to give you an upvote for giving into peer pressure, but I can't, in good conscience, upvote someone that doesn't like Voyager 😔
Don't feel bad, Voyager was tough to get through for me too. Still my least favorite Trek not counting TOS and TAS. I think it falls into the realm of great concept but lackluster execution most of the time. Not to say there aren't great VOY episodes, there absolutely are, but the quality - to me - is overall definitely subpar.
Yeah I like the characters, the concept, the aliens. But man those scripts are just so rough. They needed some serious writing workshops and like three more drafts. It always feels like they just took the rough concept draft and ran with it.
^Yo,^ ^ho,^ ^all^ ^together…^
Speaking of Voyager though, until Netflix out of the blue decided to entirely delete the account my parents and I shared (yes, we're in separate homes and I wouldn't have been surprised if they decided to lock me out of it, but that's not what happened, the entire account was just deleted…), I was slowly making my way through it. It's a struggle at times.
IMO, (as someone who absolutely loves VOY, so grain of salt) it would be worth at least skipping to season 4 to catch 7of9's origin story. But she's been my favorite since childhood, so maybe it's just me.
Thanks for the recommend. I'll give it a shot, honestly.
