TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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.

Edit: Ok, not sure what the downvote is about, considering the silly 60's nature of TOS, but alrighty then.
I wear my downvotes as a badge of honor; it’s easy to please people, but it takes true talent to annoy someone enough that they follow your posts/comments to downvote them.
Edit: clarification: not all of my downvotes; I’m referring to those lone downvotes. I take the mass downvotes as a key rethink my position on whatever I said.
Oh, I get that. It's just funny the effort others will go through to increase their own personal stress, rather than blocking a term/user/community/instance. Wild stuff.
Eh, giving out a downvote isn't a stressor, nor it's it necessarily personal. It's not even an indicator that the content should be removed, just that a user doesn't think it's helpful/fun/or contributing to the discussion
It's bare minimum feedback where blocking is not. And honestly, we should encourage more of it, rather than encourage people to create their echo chambers (within an already somewhat echo chambery platform)
If anything is personally stressful, it's stressing over an anonymous user's opinion that has very little context to it. Downvotes don't even hide or reduce visibility of your comments or posts in most of the sorting methods.
