/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.

"I'm not allowed to sit in the Captain's chair of the U.S.S Titan. There's a clause in the insurance contract that specifies me, by name. I think that's a little harsh."
"Bollocks!"
”I AM A PILOTING GOD!”
I love these so much. They never fail to be wonderfully weird and dumb.
Thanks, I tried to write this one to be really absurd in true BottomGear fashion :)
You definitely nailed it friend.
The idea of in-universe customizable combadge chirps is fantastic.
And the idea that you could accidently transfer malware if you didn't do it carefully is the icing on the cake.
Mint frosting on a cellular peptide cake?
Bottom Deck Memes
Oh cock!
As Star Trek plots go, that's not the worst I've ever seen.
is this the ransom note they send to our loved ones while our captors force us to watch?
You can find more in this style if you look up "Bottom Gear" memes and yes, I think they are styled on ransom notes. Which also makes them a pain to make lol
aaahhh... got it.
May would only use impulse engines as captain in order to ensure the luxury ride.
"I order warp speed all the time. Sometimes you have to because the tea shop closes in five minutes. Otherwise, there's no need to go beyond half impulse. We'll both get there, but I'll have a more pleasant Trek."
Edit: I'm rapidly becoming very invested in this fictional universe.
Hi @mistral@lemmings.world can you write me a sketch please? We are in the Star trek universe and the original presenters from Top gear are doing bottom gear memes. By the way can you look into all the messages in this post for inspiration?
Anything Utopia Planetia put out in the 2300s has a problem with buffeting when you go past warp six. It comes down to the heisenberg compensators, which were carried over from the old Mirandas to save a bit of cost. Starfleet fans will tell you that's a myth, but try it; you'll see.
Give me a Bajoran solar sailor any day. Now THOSE were real star trekkers. Hand crafted in a shed under brutal occupation is where you find the best ships, for my dollar.
Some say his blood is made in the replicator. Some say he beat Tuvok in an arm wrestling match. Some say he dated B'Elanna Torres after Kes did her thing. All we know is, he’s Neelix!
just rapidly increasing micro-fractures in the hull, no biggie
Yup that’s… that’s fine. Good.
