/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, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. 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.

Also when he says "most" he doesn't mean like most of this group, he means most of "you" as in we might be missing a few parts when we scoop up the goo that used to be you...

10/10 take. "The energy beams fired by our enemies' weapons turn large portions of most people hit to a gas/liquid mist basically instantly. The remainder will be retrieved."

This is why I advocate for the Federation to switch to Varon-T disruptors. Less ~~evidence~~ mess to clean up.

I always loved how some of them are already pretty old. Do they just conscript them off the street to have enough cannon fodder? Were they demoted to die under Kirk's command?

Committed too many crimes, need to get off the planet fast, and can't afford a flight? Starfleet wants you!

Arrested for protesting against Starfleet warmongering on Klingon territory?

Ya know, they are always shooting people into space in photon torpedo casings in these shows/movies, but isn't that pretty odd? Wouldn't you bring the bodies back to earth so their families can have ceremonies and process the remains? Can you imagine having your dad die in some freak situation and they just shoot his body into space in the middle of nowhere? No to mention that there are any number of aliens out there who could reanimate that body if they find it.

It's a continuation of this tradition since Starfleet is the space navy:

No to mention that there are any number of aliens out there who could reanimate that body if they find it.

Also that was an episode of Voyager.

Such a creepy episode. VOY s6e18 "Ashes to Ashes"

Nope, out the airlock with ya. If you are a ranked officer then we will cram your body into a torpedo tube first.
