/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 do not remember that being at all a reason. I remember them mentioning their heavy-handed and arbitrary moderation practices on ST content however. Such as banning people criticizing voyager etc.

It's no worries buddy. The user you're talking to, @exocrinous@lemmy.dbzer0.com, is an alternate account of @exocrinous@lemm.ee and @DroneRights@lemm.ee. Remember my post when I mentioned the ST.W mods were allowing transphobic material to stay up from a user who was banned from numerous websites for transphobic behavior? This is that user.

They have created a db0 account because they finally realized that their lemm.ee account was banned from lemmy.world. No matter. This new account is banned now as well. Especially given they openly are using alternate accounts and saying how they've been banned from numerous sites.

They're just a desperate and pathetic troll. Arguing with them is totally pointless.

They keep trying to say that I'm ableist because I called them a narcissist. Even was making posts saying "Stamets said the N word!" and when people asked for proof they offered up the narcissist comment.

That's why they're just asking for people to downvote people. They have no value of their own and they know it. Just forget them.

Eh, I didn't do much here. Thank @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world for keeping the peace! All I did was ban Exocrinous. I'd say I looked forward to it but honestly I just keep forgetting they exist. They seem to believe that they're some big threat or a pain like a lion or a honeybadger when at best they're an aphid. An organism that the vast majority of humanity doesn't notice or care about. One that I keep forgetting exists as well. Then it's just a "Huh. I forgot that was a thing", a ban, and back on with reality.

Did this person just make a new ban-evading account on lemmy.dbzer0.com and then talk shit on a post created by that instance's admin? Genius. I was gonna block them, but I see they're already banned. Yay!

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Yup. From the instance and the community.

It's almost like publicly admitting that you're evading bans is against the policies of Lemmy.world, huh?

[–] Flatworm7591@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I've banned this user in the past also, when they were using some earlier alt accounts, for exactly the same sort of behavior. A self declared narcissist claiming they are some sort of victimised demographic is just gaslighting as far as I'm concerned. I've now banned the new alt account, but no doubt they'll keep popping up.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Oh thanks <3 We keep banning them from lemmy.world too so their comments are never seen by this instance no matter what. At least some of us do. I keep forgetting this person even exists until someone makes me aware of them. Then it's just another ban and forgetting they exist again.

It is hilarious how much of a victim they're making themselves out to be here when I don't even think about them and when I am made aware of them through posts like this the only thing I'm really noticing is the stench of desperation that rolls off of them.
