/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

Now they want to install these "transporters" on the latest flagship. Can you believe it! Transporters. That don't work in an ion storm. Space is full of ion storms! They're useless. I talked to a guy named Reg down in engineering. Good fellow, really smart, knows what he's doing. I asked him, Reg, which would be better? Transporters or shuttlecraft? "Shuttlecraft" is better according to Reg, the man who knows all about how these things work. Transporters! Ha! Pour a cup of water on them and they stop working, and you have to be a Zephram Cochrane if you want to know how to fix them. Shuttles are what you want, solid tritanium alloy, that's what you can trust.
I would be a luddite about transporters too. They're just the Prestige duplicator except people treat it like it's totally fine. There's even a plotline about them fucking up the kill and leaving an earlier iteration of Riker stranded in a planet. No thanks, I'll be staying physical.
meanwhile i'll be duplicating myself and populating an entire research ship on my own

Who are we pretending to be here
I don't know where that came from, but it was probably just some cranky old admiral who's going a bit senile while everyone waits for him to retire.
The sad irony here being that the actor who portrayed Broccoli is, himself, a card carrying nutbar.
Who would have thought that Murdoch from the A Team might not be stability incarnate?
