/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.

But then when they were trying to find Bartlett, they just waltz right in to his sexual fantasy. You'd figure they'd have a "your commanding officer is looking for you, knows you're in here, and this is the knocking, so save and exit the program and pull your pants up if you need to."

Though with holodeck technology, it's a wonder they even bother exploring the universe. That might be the most unrealistic part of Star Trek.

They did point out that they would be breaking rules/regulations by entering the holodeck while he was using it, but from what I remember of the episode, he was absent from work, and wasn't responding to intercom pings, so they went to see him personally.

They did need to use command codes to force entry, so it might not normally be possible for civilians.

The Federation values real things, and people would get bored of fakery after a point. It costs you the same to take a trip to Vulcan as it does to walk into your holodeck and simulate a Vulcan sunset.
