/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.

On the flipside of that, there’s a lot about (some) of the new shows that doesn’t make me want to rewatch them dozens and dozens of times in their entirety over decades. And who knows, maybe I’ll feel differently about it later, and think about it differently in retrospect. 
I would love to see an old age home for Trek fans in 20, 30, 40 years from now ... a bunch of old trekkies, geeks and nerds all hobbling around or in wheelchairs talking to each other about all the shows, aliens, ships, worlds and characters they all watched for decades ... and all the care workers left wondering if their patients are out of their minds or the nurses just don't know enough about the shows that are being talked about ..... and that one patient who has decided he's a Gorn and keeps wanting to pick up big objects to throw at people.

What's that sonny?
I'm old enough to know that time does weird things. But yeah, I get what you mean, and I don't really disagree.
I hated enterprise when it first came out. Now I love it. So who knows?
