/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Tom Bombadil was 0% an asshole
I think a certain Old Man Willow would disagree—not to mention the local barrow-wights! Always hopping through the forest, singing his dumb songs, lording it over everybody!
Not to mention Goldberry
Looks like we got the usual Bombadil defenders in this thread
Q got screentime.
And Ferengi are goblins.
Ferengi are dwarves because they’re short and love gold…pressed latinum.
They don't do any mining though.
I bet they'd be big on crypto mining.... Or at least crypto mining scams.
That actually makes a lot of sense.
But I sure fucking hope that kind of crypto garbage doesn't last.

The Orions are the real orcs, since they're fight-y, often criminal, and green. Klingons are dwarves. Honorable combat, clans, they hate the dark elf race, etc.
The Orions are the real orcs, since they’re fight-y, often criminal, and green.
Aethetics aside, I'd say they're closer to drow. They enslave others in masse, usually evil, occasionally good/neutral.
For your information, many Orions haven't been pirates for over five years!
They're even matriarchal.
Is that the cover of Bohemian Rhapsody in the original Klingon?
Wil Wheaton: Hobbit
You know, the way Gandalf yells at Pippin does remind me a bit of Picard and Wesley's dynamic...
Fool of a Wesley!
Well the romulans do scheme like drow…
And the focus on stealth vs brute force.
I honestly always thought this was intentional
