Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but theyโ€™re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

The entire Dune novel fanbase is also pretty decent. I like hanging out with him.

He was just in it for the Dune Popcorn Bucket.

It's funny I was talking to the entire novel fanbase about a month ago and told him "well I dont hate all of Dune, the original David Lynch movie was excellent" and told me to get out. Haha

[-] kinther@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah but like... have you read Chapterhouse? Shit goes off the rails

[-] Aganim@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Even more than that fairly, uhm.. graphic climbing scene in God-Emperor? Just started Heretics, so I'll make sure to get the popcorn ready by the time I start Chapterhouse. ๐Ÿ˜‹

Really anything past God Emperor gets slowly weirder and weirder

/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.
