    Did you walk to the other sites and unlocked them?

    ...on the first day.

    Sometimes it works when I walk up to a console and other times it's just dead.

    As with most consoles in the game, the option to interact with them doesn't always pop up where you expect them to.

    Is it possible for another player to block use of it?

    There's some player from that Dental Clinic Fleet standing on the one at the Staging Area, taunting other players and his toon seems to be using the console.

    Is this a new exploit that somebody has discovered, to annoy others??

    Yeah... apparently it is... this dude is being a real jerk to other players.

    It might be possible, I've occasionally noticed the interaction disabling when people are near them and coming back before they beam out.

    for some reason it looks like only one can use it at a time. just wait a bit until the other guy has finished.

    I believe it's the consoles you're supposed to access, not the transporter itself.

    "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."

    With all the problems this particular fleet has given the games community since the beginning, one would think by now that Cryptic would just shut them down.

    That's just it... he's just standing there telling everybody to "walk".

    I can see it now... there'll probably be a group of them getting together before to long, to block several of the consoles at once all over the instance.

    Why do folks have to be sooo annoying?

    That appears to be the case. I see no reason why that feature even exists, much less why it was applied to the New Romulus transporters. I hope this was unintended.

    We have bank and exchange consoles that multiple people can use at the same time. Why not the transporters on New Romulus? It might be something the monkeys.......I mean, the developers overlooked.

    And another thing: This has happened to me at least a couple of times. When I use the transporter my bridge officer doesn't beam with me and he ends up running all the way across the map to get to me. (I'm amazed at the pathing and AI in that aspect though. :))

    Also I have seen player's bridge officers stuck in the ground near the transporter at Vastam Peaks (not the mountain pass transporter north of that).
