    You do realize the server datacenter is in Boston, MA and the Cryptic Devs are in California, right? My point? At this point it's up to the server engineers in Boston to find out what failed, fix it, and get the server hardware fixed and back up and running.

    HAHAHAHAHA you're making a joke right?

    If you are it's both funny and well timed. But I think we both know that they fix nothing, if they did, the test servers will give them the heads up they need, and after a patch, this shouldn't happen.

    They'll simply just reset the servers like every other time this happens, and if a patch is scheduled to be applied within a few days, they apply it at the time of the crash, and unschedule the scheduled maintenance..

    I honestly think it's a simple matter of server overload, they have too much volume for so little server kahunas, but I could be talking out my TRIBBLE.

    I don't care where those servers are, even if they were standing on the moon. THEY ARE DOWN and need to get up again.
    OK, if I have to stay here for a while, your cieling ... looks idious.:D

    Hey guys, here's something you can listen to while we picture in our minds the Cryptic Studio rushing around like headless chickens trying to figure out why their hamsters aren't working. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxoUmh2FCX4
    Spock: If I were human, I believe my response would be... "Go to hell"... if I were human.

    Data: Captain, I believe I speak for everyone here, sir, when I say, "To hell with our orders." :cool:

    The complaints are not about instability associated with a new release. The complaints are about continuous down time. This has been a consistent pattern over the last five months. The biggest complaint of all is that everything seems to work fine when it's time to collect subscription fees or money for Z - Store items.

    The servers have finally turned to showing as down. I had the same problem, but I was on a foundry mission and I just warped to another planet, the map changed, but my ship never warped in, but it played the sounds.

    I wonder if they realize that we can't get in. The home page says the server is still up, maybe they think we're going to bed.
    Just now it's 'Server Down', and red, so they're aware of it at least.

    Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.

    And it is a good time to gauge the intellectual pool of the forums as well. From what i have seen (as with the PWE/Cryptic team efforts right now), still waters run deep... . `\.;).?

    I have some fresh blueberries, I can make them a blueberry cobbler.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    I'm chilled...it just gets annoying after a while when you add it to the fact that almost every day I try and play I get periods where I get bumped off every few minutes, and I even have two different pathways to the internet; the first is through the router in my house and the second uses my 4G Verizon Jetpack. I'm retired and I play this for fun and I've put a lot of money into it. There are stability issues that need to get fixed.

    There was a everyday this happened to everyone when LoR was launched with daily stability improvements which to my time on here I've not seen any changes with stability. As for your "bumped off every few minutes", I've not had that at all and running on 4mbps download speed.

    Not exactly sure what you are doing every time you do a server maintenance when the only patch notes are Server Stability but,... It doesn't appear to be working.

    but they are working look at how much more stable the servers are now that no one is on

    Don't pay attention to the forums. For some strange reason, these forums are a hotbed of people wanting to kvetch and yell about every tiny nitpick. Don't let my latest GP article linked in my signature turn you away, either. It's the last in a series lead up (though totally go there and read all my STO articles :P)

    The game is fun. You'll have fun if you like Star Trek. I'm sorry about th ebad timing, that really sucks, man.

    I would agree with that most of the time we are only on here when the server is down.... the game is great or we wouldnt still be here complaining about it. all in all the game play is great and story line is decent. the fact that there is so much server problems is a downfall but it happens alot in many other mmo's. maybe a little more here but all in all the game is worth a play especially if you have a fall back game for server outages.
