Star_Trek is a safe harbour for Star Trek fans that may have found themselves on the receiving end of the ban hammer for daring to have an opinion that differed from the power mad mods on Reddit’s Star Trek sub and/or Lemmy’s own StarTrek.website.
You’re safe to like or dislike any show, character, writer, showrunner or episode here.
So come and discuss the greatest sci-fi franchise in history free from rogue mods on power trip.

There aren’t any power-mad mods on startrek.website. It’s okay to just call a community “/c/trek4assholes”
Go say you dislike Discovery or you like Picard S3 and see what happens.
Or just read the modlog. It’s a real eye opener.
Yeah, I had the audacity to say “I prefer new worlds and lower decks vs discovery” and suddenly every comment I made was removed and every new comment I posted including the one asking why they were removed, were removed
I commented that I wanted to move Discovery out of main cannon a few days ago. It was controversial but the comment is still there and it has positive karma.
Just Discovery, but not Strange New Worlds? I’m intrigued now…
I think there’s arguments to made that all of the modern Trek from 2009’s abysmal movie to the present day does actually take place in the Kelvin Timeline.
There’s so many inconsistencies with established canon that can’t all be put down to bad writing.
So Nemesis would still be the most recent events we’ve seen in the prime timeline.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think that makes sense. The planet Vulcan was destroyed in that 2009 movie. It exists and changed in Discovery.
Inconsistencies with old canon doesn’t necessarily equal to bad writing.
The sheer volume of inconsistencies in Discovery can only be explained by bad writing. Plus the stories in seasons 2 - 4 are shockingly bad.
First, sheer.
Second, There are no inconsistencies.
This is a line that is plastered CONSTANTLY but cannot be backed up with any actual examples. The only ones you could potentially argue are all covered within the show itself, stuff like why the spore drive isn’t known about or why Burnham isn’t talked about as a family member. Otherwise everything lines up. Even the holograms.
Also whether or not a season is bad has no bearing or relevance on what timeline something might take place in. Otherwise the first couple seasons of TNG are all Kelvin too. Not to mention that its your opinion that its bad, not fact.
Your behavior in this thread leads me to believe you won’t be a moderate mod in comparison but just the same in the opposite direction.
Just to address your last sentence.
While I do disagree with your opinion and think you come across here as unnecessarily aggressive your post would stay on the community as ALL opinions are welcome. Not just ones that align with my personal opinions.
In fact I’d welcome and enjoy a polite discussion about our differing opinions if you’d care to join the community.
You would be politely asked to reign in the aggressiveness though.
Funny. You’d be asked the same in my community. You are incredibly hostile and aggressive with your opinions. I don’t trust that in a moderator. It exists enough over on Startrek.website.
But if I needed any proof at all that you are identical to the mods over there it’s you thinking that an opinion on your moderation style is “aggressiveness”. Funny how that’s exactly the type of stuff that their mods remove people over. Have an opinion on our mod style? Get silenced by being banned from the instance or from the community. You are already walking down that path by thinking “An opinion on my behavior as a moderator is aggressive and must be reigned in” isn’t trustworthy.
Where’s the mod log?
In an instance, it’s the green button at the bottom of the sidebar for the specific community, and the one for the whole instance is below the sidebar.
@dohpaz42 here’s one of them. If you sort by removed comments or removed posts you get the picture.
Holy shit. I hadn’t seen that one. Thanks for the link.
Thanks, now I know I got banned for “trolling”, which is really funny because I will troll from tine to time as a joke, but never about trek or in a trek sub
Wtf are you going on about? Hating Discovery is the vanilla of star trek opinions.
And something that the mods on startrek.website and the Reddit sub simply don’t allow, often removing negative comments under the “be constructive” excuse.
It’s a similar situation if you heap too much praise on season 3 of Picard and/or Terry Matalas.
And don’t dare try to criticise Alex Kurtzman on their community. I was insta banned for saying that I believe Kurtzman is the worst thing to ever happen to the franchise.
Haven’t had any interactions with ST.W personally, but I feel tempted to share the testimony of someone who begs to differ (@Stamets@lemmy.world of !tenforward@lemmy.world): https://lemmy.zip/post/9940581
Typo in your link, FYI
“The real harassment is when someone reported harassment in the community I moderate”
My heart breaks for what he has endured 😢
If you really need a whole lemmy community dedicated to just you, by all means, feel free to create it. 8-D
