/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.

When will the new version, elevenforward, be released? :-P

Edit: I felt the need to also add this for some reason. this

I've seen the drama unfold and had an interaction with the mod of Risa in a post bringing random deletions of things to the attention of everyone, and the dude seemed like an unreasonable douche. I'm glad TenForward now exists, and is moderated by the very people that made Risa fun. Cuz the creator of Risa sure didn't make it fun.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (3 children)

I will ask to keep things a lil more civil. We're not trying to cause drama here. What happened in the other place happened but we've got this whole new space to explore and after all, that's what Starfleet is about right? And I mean that for everyone in general. There's no point in focusing on what's happened. Just gotta start putting our first forward into this bold frontier.

However I will say this, the current moderator of the other place is not the creator. The creator is actually a really cool guy who's active in this community and I've had the pleasure of having conversations with. He's a genuinely really kind and wonderful person who shares the exact same ideals that Ten Forward does.

Hello, said creator. Thanks again buddy <3

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Feel free to hide / delete this post if you want to cut down on the meta meme navel gazing. 👋 The vibes had felt off for a couple weeks, and finding Ten Forward this morning was a pleasant surprise.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago

Nah, it's fine. It also gives me a moment to address that general vibe. There have been some people talking about goings on with the other instance or community and I don't really care that much provided people are being respectful about it. We haven't really talked about why we left because we're trying to have this community built off of hope and love and moving in that direction. Confusion and people going "wait, what happened?" isn't a problem but it can be if people start crossing some lines with the answers.

However I will say this, the current moderator of the other place is not the creator.

Well shit... Why'd he leave? Or give the current mod mod status?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

I didn't agree with the rest of the instance's mods approach to moderation, for reasons that are now very public and obvious.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I'm just the mod here. Even then it's not something I particularly want to get into myself. It's not my place anyway but just not the kinda energy I'm trying to drive.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Ten Forward shows the power of federation. Some guy's being a douche? Just make your own somewhere else. And people will find it. I came here from Kbin.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You've brought the Federation into the middle of a blood feud, Semi-Hemi-Demigod. The reposters have returned to expel their OPers just as they were once expelled, except that commentors need for revenge has now escalated into OC!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

It worked for Discovery!

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago

Both communities are on the same instance. I don't think federation has anything to do with this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What happened? Do I need a new instance?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Afaik, the drama is just from the one mod on Risa, not the entire startrek.website instance. But I'm not digging deeper beyond what I witnessed first-hand.

Ugh, one of the creepiest episodes...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Such a good episode.

And such a good application of the holodeck.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

This meme represents me well. I'm just here for the fun.

Lol pretty much.

I want to ask for context but I’m also a little afraid.
