/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

I really enjoyed despising Kai Winn

Kai Winn = Villain you love to hate.

I think because she seems to real and believable. You look at it and think "wow this could be a politician/religious authority IRL. I've seen people like this."

It's kinda like how if someone kills someone on TV you don't think much of it because it's not something most people can really relate to. If you see someone cheat on their partner, though? It fills you with rage because for a lot of people, it's relatable and it hits close to home. She's a real-world villain.

Gul Dukat = villain you hate that you kinda love

He's constantly switching from very obviously evil to seemingly redeemable. You even see some qualities of him that are really good - he clearly cared about his daughter, and on more than one occasion he was extremely quick to change his mind and say he was wrong, something even good people struggle with. And he just has this ridiculous charisma.

Then you feel shitty when he snaps and goes full mask-off evil, guilty for falling for his charisma and ever thinking he could turn good.

I haven't even spoken about the Founders, Vorta, and Jem'hadar, they were all great too. Man DS9 had fantastic bad guys.
