/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

This could also fit well as a Space Station 13 meme. Station under attack by Wizards? Sure it is buddy. I'm going back to my lab and figuring out how to give monkeys super strength.

Also, hydroponics are the ones that grow the space weed. Even Wizards and the Syndicate know better than to mess with the supply. I've seen numerous Wizard rounds end with the Wizard just getting so blazed their organs fail.

I thought it was an SS14 meme...

Ostensibly one made with a codebase that isn't spaghetti, so I've heard. It's on Steam, you can request access, it's free for now!

I kind of bounced off SS13 due to how fragmented the playerbase got with the numerous remake projects over the years. I hope someday things will settle back down and be less spread out. I miss the regular 24/7, ~50 player, 30 minute - 1.5 hour rounds on goonstation from around 2009 - 2015. Feels like a real golden age for the game in retrospect.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Oh it was nice. I don't mind smaller rounds sometimes though! I do miss ss14 doesn't have deep frying. Or didn't last I played!

"Better get to work in the lab. If we survive the warp core breach, my head of department is going to want that report on the growth rates of Deltan Bonzai trees."

Eh, the core goes and you’ve got no worries anymore, so might as well look at the flowers.

Sounds like a good day in engineering to me

Never trust the Geneticist.

A bored Roboticist abducted me once just so he could remove my limbs and then eventually come back to replace them after the clown stole his stuff while he was 'operating' on me

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

IMO an ideal playthrough of SS13 occurs when the Roboticist and Geneticist attempt to punk eachother.

... and/or when Logistics functionally declares itself to be a sovereign entity, rofl

I think I can probably count the number of rounds I've played that didn't devolve into a Cargonia Secession War on one hand.

Literally the only time I clearly remember those guys being team players is when we were under attack by wizards.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Haha dang! It did not used to be so common back when I played somewhat regularly.

I think Sseth might have ruined this game's player base, lmao

(I say this originally being a Ssethtider myself, the irony is not lost on me lol)
