/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.

MODERATORS
It's not just one creation though. He wiped out Guinan's people. He tortures other species for fun. He's pretty hostile towards a lot of species. I guess they failed their trial. Picard must be one of the only defendants who won his case, and that's why Q helps humanity, while dooming other races.
Weren't Guinans people wiped out by the Borg?
They were.
They also make it very clear that if Q did anything remotely on the lines of wiping out an species, that he wouldn't be there anymore to bother humans. And that she did know Q from around the time the Borg shows up.
Star Trek is not really consistent. But if there's a backstory there, my guess would be that he watched and did nothing while bothering them all the time.
It has been a while since I've watched it, but I remember them being wiped out by Q, which is why she's so hostile towards him.
