/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.

Jadzia was easily one of the best parts of DS9. I had no idea her departure was because of a request like this. That's pretty stupid.
Take a fan favorite character and fire her because she asked for a bit of a break? That's completely idiotic. I'm not going to say that Ezri was bad or anything; but the fact is that Jadzia was great and replacing her was entirely the decision of one small man who couldn't give enough respect to his co-workers to respect their wishes all because they were women.
I can only imagine what could have happened, and how great things could have been if this one fool was ejected sooner.
Nicole de Boer did a great job as Ezri and the writers did what they could with her character, but she always felt shoehorned into the show. The fact that her character intentionally didn't fit in did not help at all. I guess they wanted her to be the opposite of Jadzia? And I really didn't like the idea of the Dax symbiont put into the closest available Trill because it was an emergency plot device.
