/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.

Have you included the chirp as your notifications?

Still using Voyager door chime: https://www.trekcore.com/audio/doors/voy_door_chime.mp3

If/when I tire of that, I'm absolutely going to switch to the communicator chirp. Sadly, I haven't found a way to play a sound when I flip it open.

As great as it would be to have it chirp every time you open it, I think that would probably get annoying after a while.

You mix it up by programming the chirp and a random panicked message from your crew that:

  • a Klingon ship has decloaked
  • the Cardassians are contacting us
  • a Borg ship has been detected
  • we've lost main ship power and we are on emergency power only
  • the ships gravity assist is malfunctioning
  • we've detected a space-time rift in your area
  • a Gorn colony has been detected in your area

I had a comm badge chirp for a long time. Everyone that heard it always asked if my phone was broken lol
