/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.

Garak: So, let me get this straight, Doctor. This "Santa Claus" operates a vast, real-time information gathering regime, collects data to judge everyone on the planet, and categorizes them into the beautifully binary groups of "naughty" and "nice" for the purpose of facilitating later actions based upon membership of one or the other group?

Bashir: I don't think that's quite the moral of the story here, Garak, but yes, that is...accurate.

Garak: And to whom does this "Santa Claus" report?

Bashir: No one, as far as I'm aware, anyway.

Garak: Fascinating. I say, dear Doctor, there may be hope for your species yet.

Garak: This Mr. Claus, he also keeps an entire subspecies of your planet as slave labor who don't question his rule at all? They toil at their tasks without fail and have the ability to make perfectly indiscernible imitations of proprietary products.

Bashir: That's not the point, Garak.

Garak: The further I research this Santa fellow the more I begin to admire him, and fear his capabilities.

OMG we need to crowdfund a DS9 Christmas special.
