    Quit. You know you want to.
    He can quit STO whenever he wants. He just doesn't want to.

    ... you write English text message in the fleet chat of your German fleet, when people have already talked to you in German the entire time.

    ... you type "aaaaaaaaaaasssssddddddddddd" in chat and manage so blow your alpha strike

    ... you activate all the buffs for a perfect alpha strike only to notice that your weapons don't fire because you're still cloaked


    ... you realize that you fought at 50 weapon power the entire match

    I do that a lot. When ever I get out of a fight, first thing I do is flip on the strong shields setting.

    ...after telling everyone in an IGE run how great of a jumper you are, and should be in the jumping group, you fall into the plasma pool on the first jump
    heh, thats the one. Isn't is strangely satisfying to melee a borg into the plasma with your rifle butt instead of shooting him ?

    .....When you really, really, really have to go to the bathroom but you're supposed to be guarding the Kang/Stopping the Spheres and Probes

    ....When you position yourself for the ultimate, most awesome alpha strike, in the history of the world and you come up against the only guy with a tricobalt device and the ionized gas sensor console and you just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time

    ....When you're in an escort and you end up also being the primary healer

    ....When you put a shield battery on the exchange for 5 million as a joke and someone buys it

    ...you ask a friend to train your very rare science boff; forgot about shared cooldown and now have to make a hard choice.

    ^ What shared cooldown? Ive never run into any issues with boff trading/training.

    ...you realize you're the only one who doesn't know how to take a regular ship into the vault event

    You're not the only one.



    ...When you just can't dismiss or trade your Boffs or Doffs because they feel like a permanent part to your STO experience.

    ...When you don't know what the Vault event is like AT ALL because everyone leaves before the queue starts, even as a VA.

    ...When you can't create a good, professional sig on the forums.

    ... when you forget to put impulse engines on a vessel you take out of mothballs and spend the next 15 minutes using your reaction thrusters to scootch towards the starbase to beam back in.

    I had a boff with Transfer Shield Strength 3, kind of expensive off the exchange. I got my buddy to add Feedback Pulse 3 to her. They share a cooldown, so I would have been better off putting FBP3 on a different boff instead of the one that had two copies of TSS.

    The hard choice comes when you have to drop that power, pick something else, and hope that fleetmate is online to give FBP3 to another boff.

    That awkward moment...when you have to explain the joke.

    This.

    Also... when your science officer is PVPing in a science vessel, and you deal twice as much damage as anyone else on your team.

    I get around this by keeping their names, races, and appearances when I "upgrade" them. I'm merciless with white/green doffs, though.

    Anyhow...when you finish Infected Space and race toward the optional loot, only to realize too late that you just rushed into the tac cube's warp core breach.
