/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Good for you! Just let people enjoy things. You know, even if they revealed that Picard was just a suit full of tribbles the whole time, it wouldn’t have ruined a thing. All of those TNG episodes stand up. Why do people have to be so weird about stuff.
There's a weird bias where criticism is seen as wrong.
If you don't like Picard and want to tell everyone what you found wrong with it, that's fine too.
Absolutely right!
Don't dunk on people for liking things and let everyone enjoy..... but I refuse to keep quiet about things I don't like. The best talks with friends are about movies/games/shows they liked and that I didn't like. What did they like about it? Why have we both seen the same thing and taken away something completely different? Maybe I'll go back and watch it again. Maybe we'll laugh about it.
There is a non-toxic way to talk about what you don't like....if you can't be non-toxic then keep your mouth shut. If you're the sort to get personally offended when someone says they didn't enjoy a show you liked, then there's something wrong with you.
Normalise talking about opinions without causing or taking offence. Accept that everyone is entitled to their opinion and the opinions in people's heads cannot hurt you.
