/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.

Great link! If you want to know how the sausage is made on Star Trek or, honestly, any scripted TV series, I highly recommend David Gerrold's book about the making of the famous episode he wrote, The Trouble With Tribbles. Along with an annotated script, he goes into great detail about how TV production works and how lines of his were cut or new lines were added by Gene and others (the "no tribble at all" line that Scotty ends the episode with was not his and he hated it). It's really worth a read. I have the original paperback, but it looks like he has a new edition, both print and ebook, out.

More good link!
I’ll be honest I was more interested in the story reasoning from Moore than anything else. And while I make sausage for a living, I love production-inside baseball talk. Especially trek-production-inside baseball talk/stories.
