/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.

I fucking love that episode where they go to the other station to do the prisoner exchange. And Iggy Pop is so fucking brilliant in that episode! He's fucking hilarious!

I love the one where they go back in time and They’re literally the Roswell aliens and as soon as Quark can communicate starts trying to scam the humons

We both know that each of these episodes, at their core, are stupid as fuck.

Not everything needs to be measure of a man.

Odo was a dog, your argument is invalid

I know I am in the minority, but Goddamn I can't stand the Ferengi

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because of your lack of profit?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

They probably just need to get some oo-mox

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I really tried to like them, mostly because Armin Shimerman was amazing as Quark (and ok, Rahm was kinda lovable in his own stupid way). But Ferengi Love Songs and all the creepy family shit ruined it completely for me. I'd give all my latinum to have nothing to do with Ferenginar.

By any chance, are you German? Because of 'Rahm'...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Haha. Also, ich lerne tatsächlich seit 3 Jahren Deutschesprache.

But no, I last watched Voyager before that, 5-6 years ago. I just assumed that's how it was spelled. TIL it's Rom.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Das ist lustig! Rahm ist ein anderes Wort für Sahne, also cream.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Ja! As I recall he's kind of a momma's boy so it sorta fits.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They are way too much one-dimensional.

[–] gravitas_deficiency 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If you’ve watched DS9, you know that’s not true.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They tried to do this with Quark family, but that was still very plain.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

They made it to 2D in DS9, but that's still not enough dimensions. Doesn't mean other important characters weren't left wanting in a similar way, but still.

Am I the only fan who skipped most of the Ferengi focused episodes?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

One of the few I don't skip is the Magnificent Feeengi, because Iggy Pop is brilliant as a Vorta.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

I did watch that one. I never noticed that was Iggy Pop! He looks quite freaky as a Vorta, even more than he already does as a human.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Everyone keeps mentioning Magnificent Ferengi for Iggy Pop and I'm like "you're not even gonna mention that it's basically Weekend at Bernie's?!"
