I just thought I'd take this opportunity to say, to everyone at Cryptic/Perfect World and to all STO players, and all of your families, have a safe and happy Thanksgiving. And remember, don't eat too much...it's hard to captain a starship when you are half asleep after a Thanksgiving feast! Seriously though, stay safe, enjoy the time with your families, and have a great Thanksgiving!:)
I don't care what the header says, I am not now, nor have I ever been, nor will I ever be, an "ARC user".
"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." -Thomas Marrone
Happy Thanksgiving to all of our soldiers over seas as well, hoping they come home soon.
Absolutely! I feel like such an idiot for not mentioning our soldiers and veterans. Thank you. And thank all of you who have posted on this thread. This is one of the reasons I like STO so much...an absolutely great community! Thanks again!

like your handome phaser guy. perhaps i will spare his life if i meet him in my brig as a prisoner
and also have a nice one
to all veterans i wish just nothing. do you know the Slovak state has an atomic submarine fleet parked in the Carpathian Hills?
..it is a national joke..
Happy Thanksgiving, all! And for those of you not celebrating Thanksgiving, Happy November 22nd!
I just wanted to stop by to say "thank you" to all of our players. We're so thankful for our passionate community and STO wouldn't be anywhere without all of you. See you in-game!
I would, but i'm currently grinding my face into the ground trying to get enough dilithium to afford a mkxi plasma rifle
The grind will still be there when Thanksgiving is over, as well as your rifle. It's family time....trust me, I'm having to realize this too. But it's doable... :P
That being said, I'll probably log on long enough to check my doffs--at least until after I'm done eating like a pig.
And for everyone who has to work today (like me), happy work day! (and happy holiday pay if you get that too)
Happy Thanksgiving from the Borg Boombox!

Well, the title pretty much says it all, but I think it would be cool to see an event in STO next year. I mean after all there are some real Trek references to the holiday:
And not to completely steal Trekmovie.com's thunder, however they did make some good points in that even though it's an American holiday, it's one that promotes the gathering of family and the celebrations of other cultures working together, something that is very much in line with Gene Roddenberry's vision. So I ask in the tradition of celebrating such themes, that Cryptic consider a Thanksgiving Day event next year for all around the world to participate in and enjoy together!

Besides, the turkey coma makes it hard to grind.
