Risa: Your Home Away from Spacedock
Welcome to Risa
All the pleasure of shore leave, none of the holodeck glitches.
Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon
This is a vacation planet, not the neutral zone.
- No harassment, brigading, or trolling
- No bigotry
- Keep the banter playful, not hostile
Rule 2 — No Prohibited Cargo
Some things aren’t welcome aboard.
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
Rule 3 — Keep It Trek
Posts should be Star Trek memes or Trek-adjacent humor.
- Crossovers are fine
- Low-effort “unrelated” memes may be spaced out the nearest airlock
Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Belongs in a Black Hole
You’re welcome to have your own opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek but forcing your view on others or pretending it’s the only valid one? That’s not the Starfleet way.
Everyone’s Trek is valid, from TOS purists to Lower Decks shitposters, and you don't get to dictate what is real or not for everyone.
If you see a post that violates the rules, or that doesn't inspire Jamaharon, report it so the mods can handle it.
Otherwise grab a horga’hn, order a Risan Mai Tai, and enjoy your shore leave.
Having worked in tech support before, always delivering top notch results and achieving the highest level of customer satisfaction in my entire department, I got so pissed off and annoyed when I recently had to deal with my electricity grid provider. Long story short, their entire team consists of monkeys on typewriters, a legal struggle ensued, I was constantly pissed off for months, but I finally emerged victorious.
That was just to get things fixed on a basic level. The real fun starts now with compensation claims.
Sorry to hear that. We had a problem with our solar inverter disconnecting because of over-voltage on the grid. All I could find on the generation side was a ‘general contact form’ on a website. I didn’t hold out much hope, but a couple of days later, an actual engineer called me to talk about moving the tap in the substation down, as there was so much solar generation in our area it was pushing the grid voltage up. He’d already sent someone out to check there was scope to move it and was calling to ask me to check for the next few days and to let him know. Not had any more problems since.
I’ve never been so pleasantly surprised by their level of customer service. My point is that it really depends on getting someone who (a) cares and (b) knows what they’re doing.
I wish you nothing but luck, my friend <3 it is kind of remarkable how much incompetence there is at such basic/vital levels.
Amen to that! And thank you. :)
