/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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

Michael Dorn doesn't look right unless he has latex glued to his face.

Yeah, watching Far Beyond the Stars the first time it was difficult to recognize him...without the makeup, his voice wasn't as deep, and because he was actually smiling.

I remember reading an interview with René Auberjonois where he considered the makeup process important to getting into character and doing the Odo voice. I wonder if Dorn is the same way.

The hair is important too. The latest Worf hair took some getting used to.

There was a Muppet portrayal of Worf on Sesame Street:

I hear that to the tune of the clapper jingle

I prefer when he’s adorned with his costume

It would have ended with Oscar taking a Bat'leth to the face.

I vaguely remember LeVar Burton doing an episode of Reading Rainbow on the set of Star Trek and having a segment with Michael Dorn

I scrolled past and chuckled twice at this stupid meme.
