/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 love how also they had warp for a significant amount of years before humans but didnt see half the stuff Archer saw on his first mission.
It shows how conservative they were with the technology (probably because Romulan wartime policy affected exploration)
There's a reason humans are an important part of the federation, and it's not because they are the smartest. They are the crazy fuckers who do whatever insane thing comes to mind just to see what will happen.
For those that haven't seen it: The United Federation of Hold My Beer
It doesn't matter that I've read this a hundred times, it still makes me smile and giggle every time it's posted.
Despite all the talk about logic and discovery, Vulcans (at least when well written) are mostly motivated by fear. Even their strong adherence to logic is motivated by what they perceive as their violent nature because of their past.
I think that starting to move past that is why T'rina is less "robotic" than TOS and TNG era Vulcans, and why she's actually more logical than most Vulcans we saw.

Cue Founding Father Lionel Hutz:
"Oh no. Those printers messed this all up.
It's supposed to be 'Land of the fee, home of the slave.'
Better remove this Bar Logo."
