Suspicious queues...

Normal day in STO:

I do a few matches in one of my tried and true setups, that I know work... In every match, I'm qued up against n00bs and RPers, and it's just boring and not challenging... zap-zap they're dead.

So I think I'll have some fun, and set up a silly ship with funny abilities, to be able to meet the RPers eye-to-eye... and what happens? Match after match I'm queued up against premades and pugmades, or even worse, IN a semi-premade against another premade, so my silliness can demonstrated as clearly as possible!

Am I the only one experiencing this? Or do I have the worst luck?

I guess what I want to say is... If you see me in a defiant-r running beams and mines only, and you understand how wrong it is, I wasn't planning to meet you! :D

    I've had it happen.. but it's more due to just the activity increasing of the Pugmade/Premade/Semi-Premades queing up.
    You think that your beta test was bad?

    It's a conspiracy. I've noticed whenever I put my silly uniform on and grab my low level gear and queue up for some ground, I'm up against hard hitting, genuinely good people and premades. When I think I'm gonna run into them again, I put my game face on and take it seriously and I end up against people who don't know what the respawn button does.

    I have other problem, in every match I'm there is one person missing in our side. I had like 4 matches in row that were 4v3.

    reread first post, I think a defiant with beams amd mines will annoy those on my team. because an escort without DHCs is a horrible waste. (not to mention annoy me, as I will not be able to fight efficiently)


    (and canon weaponry on the defiant is cannons, torps and beams, with more cannons than beams. http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Defiant_class )

    a pure cannon build is always less effective than original starfleet specs

    correct build is as it comes out of the factory

    ...for 5 year old roleplayers in neverland maybe...but even those use cannons nowadays. Go and have a look it is just around the corner of your little fairytail island, that is ofcourse your center of the universe.

    in simple terms (for PVPers)

    "man who beats up on child is weak and must never think he is anything else"

    A person who beats someone a lot under their age (or anyone under 10 at all) is not a winner

    I personally wouldn't have it no other way. I have personally experienced that setup of yours mate - and I choked on my coffee. :)

    The opinion of a man who can or will not back up his words by action carries no more weight than the words of a 5 year old. Does that mean noone can be a winner against you in pvp? :P

    For me to stoop to PVP just to prove im better than a bully would make me a fool

    there is no Glory or honour in fighting your own side

    you want to prove yourself

    solo a few STF's

    or find a dentist and defeat him in a game of Chess

    im automatically better than people who beat up on kids
    because I don't

    That certainly would explain why he thinks I never beat him like he was a red headed foster child...

    I'm not blaspheming them?

    There were ads for that on all morning during the commercial breaks for the games.

    I thought, that product might help alleviate some of your symptoms.

    Mavairo is just as much a bully as you are sollvax. Your blind hatred just doesn't allow you to see it.

    at appears bullying has had a large effect on poor sollvax, he now sees every interaction between players in game as some kind of bullying. well what are the players doing in the Olympics? is the gold medal winner the best bully? i don't think its ever been more clear that you are incredibly socially underdeveloped, or like 11 years old or something. seeing as you cant properly participate in our discussions, would you please stop including yourself in them?
