/c/TenForward: 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.

The Borg, it's the only one non-treckies know. And maybe Holodeck. Q? Only because i read some fandom. Others? No clue.

In a "non-trekkie" though my nan loved it so I've seen a couple of the films, I know of The Borg, Q the holodeck (another I think most people at least understand the concept of) and pretty sure "This Motherfucker" is the federation or whatever they're called.

Where can I read all the dirt about Berman? I'm sure I've heard it in the past but now I can't remember the details of why he's hated so much.

I know it's mostly sexual harassment stuff

Objection: Q is a hero, not a villain.

The guy who essentially resurrected Star Trek, produced and co-created the two best star trek shows in at least 20 years? Yes, his work with JJ, Discovery and Picard (and in other franchises) is questionable but without him, we wouldn’t have SNW and LD either…

oooo, toss up between Rick Berman and Lens Flare.

That one guy's head that Riker exploded.

The Pakled. Final answer.

Kai Winn with Gul dukat in a super close second.

"My child" came out of Rick Bermans mind before it came out Kai Winns mouth.

Far from his only sin in trek, and not his worst, but it is enough. The source of evil is clear.

I don't know how exploding consoles didn't make the list, but they would be a distant second to Rick Berman.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I came here to say this. I get that they use fucking plasma in their electrical systems, but you'd think some step-down transformers and circuit breakers could be installed. And why the hell do the defense systems feed back into the main power grid? Why isn't there a capacitor bank to dump feedback into for reuse in the weapons or something?

Borg for me.

I wonder if there's any psychology behind responses to this question... While I genuinely love the idea of becoming a cyborg, the thought of becoming part of a collective that thinks as one is kinda horrifying to me as someone who works in a creative field.

How about the warp drive? Works on two levels.

Berman. He cut a swath of sadness through many series.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For me it was the giant space virus mosquitos in Voyager. As a kid that shit was nightmarish.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't recall that one, have a link?

Macrocosm, S03E12, those CGI motherfuckers with the big stingers
