/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

Computer, generate a girlfriend for Geordie that won't get him in trouble for sexually harassing a Starfleet engineer this time.

Did Geordie generate himself a lady starfleet engineer in one episode?

There was an episode where he was trying to enhance the warp drive or something to get out of some situation or other, when he asked the computer to generate a virtual copy of the person who designed it to discuss the changes, who turned out to be a woman. Long story short, Geordie falls in love with the virtual copy, eventually in a later episode meets the real person who isn't anything like the computer guessed she was, and she eventually finds Geordie's duplicate and is justifiably upset and creeped out.

More details: he doesn't want to keep asking the computer and since he was already using the holodeck he asked for a physical representation to talk to. Then, when she was too stiff, he asked the computer to make a personality. Since the Barclay gave it a lot of training, Geordi ends up having a relationship with her.

Then later the real deal sees Geordi's fantasy woman and is understandably upset.

I don't remember that one but I remember the one where he created her and got his creepy little crush. I guess maybe I can start rewatching... holy crap that's a lot of episodes.
