/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.

I like how everyone has all these hobbies and social activities like poker or fencing, except Barclay, who is a depressed and anxious workaholic except when he goes to the holodeck to jerk off. He was truly ahead of his time.

Remember how everyone shit on Barclay for being a creep until Geordi got busted for making a virtual fuck doll of that one physicist lady? Good times.

I think the funniest part of that is in the last episode of TNG there is a throw away line that heavily implies they got married and had kids.

In the books they get together for a while.

No, because neither of those things happened.

They discovered Barclay's unhealthy holodeck fantasies, and while the crew was made uncomfortable by exploring them, that's how they found out he had issues that need treatment. No character ever holds it against him.

Geordi had a problem with the Enterprise's engines that he wanted to discuss with the engineer that designed them. He had the holodeck simulate said engineer--who turned out to be a woman. And then the computer simulated the engineer flirting with him. Which then got replayed and taken out of context.

until data made the creepy daughter/doll of his.
