First, like the rest, I am tired of the server being down all the time lately. Every other day is a server maintenance issue, and now it is down yet again. As one here stated, I paid for lifetime membership, and have not gotten much playtime for it. As another said, I have put a lot of money into C store, also retired btw, and would like to enjoy what I paid for.
ALL this said, can we please not demean or belittle one another. Just cause your upset, does not give you the right to be mean to someone else who is upset. Sarcasm is uncalled for and so is the smart allec remarks. The admins put these boards up primarily to allow people to vent and to see what problems are out there.
While I agree that this is a multinational operation and has huge income, it is being run to make money, not necessarily to please it's customer base. This is my opinion and not something I wish commented back upon.
I know that some of the admin's and techs do try hard to get things right, and I applaud them for their effort.
So, while we all have a right to be upset, and would LOVE to see some kind of recompense for our lost game time and pain, I would not expect it anytime soon.
IF anyone from the STO or Cryptic sites are reading this, perhaps giving everyone a 5 pack of keys or even a 10 pack would be a nice gesture.
I would like to say, while we all need to vent and post our complaints, try to think about the other person being angry and don't step on them. Think of how you would like it if they stepped on you.
I say this as SOME of the remarks made towards others got me angry for their rudeness and arrogance. Trust me when I tell you that you are no better than anyone else on this site and your remarks and rudeness proves that.
It is the server being down, yet again, that has us upset.
And for those who love to be rude, I am a retired business man with lots of experience with rude and childish employee's. You neither offend me nor do I take your remarks seriously towards me. I simply consider the source.
I do prefer that people be polite even in their criticism, as I have tried to be in this post.

seriously ? where the heck are you people from ? A tribble could do better ... Do you think adding an advertising banner is going to make it all better ? I really don't need this I'm 52 years old with heart problems and this is my only get away and ya'll have ripped me off .. stolen as it were ... can't respond to tickets at all ... send me the tickets @ 76avenger@gmail.com I bet I give people better answers than you ..
Cryptic please go buy some new servers. Tell Our Glorious Chinese Overlords you need the money to bribe an NSA analyst. I'm sure they'll go for it then!
Sometimes I think I play STO just to have something to complain about on the forums.
It appears that anything more than a memory leak that requires
just a simple server restart [to clear the problem temporarily]
is enough to fluster this tech team. *sigh*
NO
It's worse than that, It's dead, Jim, dead, Jim, dead, Jim;

i have a question does neverwinter go down this often bet you it dont and if it does me thinks it about time you get a new IT guy or a server upgrade seems to me something happening ever day now:mad: o well back to LOTRO
So do we know what happened yet, did the engineers turn off the server and turn it back on yet, or hit control alt delete? what is going on here? Here I know wave an ancient bone over the server and go boga boga boga, ha ha ha, that should fix it.:eek::P
I was playing earlier today with some lag.
Logged off and tried to log on just now, and could'nt.
So i went to the website to check out the forums, and i guess the servers are down.
Well...that explains why i cant log in, but is this the reason why every1 is seeming to have lag problems?
Hopefully everything will be back to normal in a few days;)

My husband is an IT guy. He watches multiple servers. If the server goes down he gets an alarm on his phone that wakes him up and instant emails on what is going on. He can fix it from our bedroom in usually 20 minutes. On a few rare occasions, it's taken him hours, but that's what happens when some IT wannabe jacks up your programming and gives you the "What? I didn't do nothing!" story. You kind of have to chase it down yourself.
Yes, it's possible.
FYI, you're letting a jock kick your butt in IT, guys.
