You walk into the office in Starfleet Academy and you notice the Commandant of Starfleet Academy is ranked an Ensign and the gaurd standing right behind him is a Captain....

Talk about "Power behind the throne!"

...


You want to have Admiral Quin courtmartialed for insubordination....

...

You treat ramming speed like evasive manuevers

    You start thinking about an appropriate build for tackling menial tasks. And about how to min/max it. :P

    When your female andorian first officer understands you better than your RL girlfriend.(So you think):D
    When you think"Engage!" getting on to the highway.
    When your up at 3 a.m. buzzed out on energy drinks, and posting on the forum, to get off the caffene -STF buzz.:eek:

    You've been playing STO for too long when you do ground missions just to see all 4 of your away team Boffs in the skimpy uniform you put them in, and the 'pudgy' bellies on them that you put there so they'd 'look pregnant'. And all your Boffs are female to boot.

    When your wife or girlfriend start chewing
    You out for something ( like not hearing what they just said )

    And your first thought is

    Raise Shields !

    When a fellow employee asks you of they can
    Do a task your reply is

    Make it so


    When your looking at your bank statement and are
    Alarmed when you do not see your fleet marks
    And Dilithium

    :)
    Jellico....Engineer ground.....Da'val Romulan space Sci
    Saphire.. Science ground......Ko'el Romulan space Tac
    Leva........Tactical ground.....Koj Romulan space Eng

    Your driving the Ambulance Lights and Sirens to the city with a critical patient in the back and your mind wanders to "If I spend my 3 Million Fleet Credit to get 10 more Green Security Doffs to finish the next project when I get back....we can start the next project....."

    The ramming speed as evasive manuevers I do that all the time.

    For me, it's when you have to calculate whether you can risk going to pee or should just wait for a timer to come up for an event.

    You get caught up in the MKXII gear situation - and suddenly realize you don't PvP all that much and the MKXII gear really isn't needed to be successful and advance or get maximum rewards in ANY PvE content (STF, Fleet Event, or otherwise.) - even in Elite difficulty mode.

    when you think the guy who is not being a doucher in chat is you from the future.

    when you see a platypus in a zoo, you think cryptic made a mistake.

    You go to your local bar and breath a sigh of relief that it is not full of green plasma gas. When you get to your table you don't sit in a chair, but instead stand on the table for most of the night, tossing ice cubes at passers by.

    When the first thing and the last thing you feel about STO is anger .

    Or ... when you think that "He-Man and the Plasters of the Universe" is a Good Name for a fleet ! :)

    When you forget to actually fly you ship in combat, because all you do is log in and DOFF or console-daily because you are bored and waiting for the next Season.

    When ya log in...

    Ya grab yer favorite ship and head off to Ker'rat to kill things.

    Once there, you begin to fight..., and immediately blow up...

    Respawn, and blow up again... and again..., and again...

    After the fourth time, you begin to loudly curse both the cheating, Klingon Players and Cryptic for doing something to the game.


    Then realize you changed out yer Shields the last time you played, to try a new ship...

    ...and never put anything back to replace them.

    When you go in for a driver's test, they ask you for your license plate number, and you say "NCC-94700". :o

    I'm also guilty of all three offenses mentioned in the OP. :P

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    You know you've been playing STO too long when -

    - You stop at traffic accidents to look for gear drops which are Purple Quality.
    - You queue up with five random strangers to enter Wal Mart.
    - You put your boss on your 'Ignore' List.
    - You email H.R. to ask them how much dilithium it will cost to train up your new assistant in Windows 8.
    - You ask I.T. if there is a Mirror Universe copier.
    - When the company dress code changes Casual Friday to include, 'Tie - Optional', you always try for it.
    - You never get any closer than 5km to your co workers.
    - You get upset because the vehicles around you driving to/from work are always closer together than 5km.
    - You attempt to trade your husband/wife/fiancee/girlfriend/boyfriend/significant other for three Doffs of lower quality.
    - You think Tony Stark is a really cool Human Tactical Vice Admiral.
    A six year old boy and his starship. Living the dream.
