/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. 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.

Smart thinking, any server suggestions or which side to go with?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Dunno how many servers there are. There may only be one per continent/ region. I treat the game as a single player game. I just made a character for each faction, federation, Klingon, and romulan.

Suppose that makes sense, see all the content. Guess I'll just jump in lol.

I haven't played in a couple years, but start with Federation side as it has more content geared towards it.

Type of Captain (sci/tac/eng) is your preference as all content can be done as any type.

Don't bother with PVP.

Theres only 2 'servers' to choose from if I remember correctly the main server and a test server.

That makes sense, I'll start there. Any suggestion on what type of captain you would suggest? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Tac is probably the easiest to start out with. It's what I run as my main Fed.

Engineer and Science need a bit more effort to use properly.

You can have a decent amount of characters, so there's no issues starting a new character in a different profession to see what it's like. (Also allowing you to have Federation and Klingon Captains.)

Also look for active promo codes. You can get a lot of good stuff with them.
