Fair enough, it just makes you look bad. but that's up to you.
I don't worry about what strangers think of me on the internet. We all have our own opinions about things - and they're often unjustified.
For example, when I see someone using the blue Career Officer title my personal feeling is that the person using it is an arrogant braggart: "Look at me! I can afford an LTS! See how cool I am compared to all the rest of you?" That's usually not their intent for using it, but that's what I think when I see it - and why I never use mine. On the other hand, you, apparently, get up in arms when people talk about playing the game and not spending money. To each their own.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
I just had a CSE yesterday with 2 Scimitars. Both of them had no idea what they were doing and we failed the mission even though both of them were attempting to guard the Kang. They seriously couldn't do anything. So once again, it's about how you fly the ship you have and not about the ship itself when it comes to PVE.
Well the ships are only one half the equation. Without the gear to put on the ships you're right. If you have elite fleet weapons, mk XII reputation gear, etc. you can make a Miranda pretty damn formidable compared to someone with white gear.

seems I touched a nerve with you, oh well, calling people arrogant braggart's for using a title is like the pot calling the kettle black. You just like to brag about how much dil or Zen you can earn.... its not the first time you have done it.... I'm sure it wont be the last.... I don't get up in arms about people not spending money, I just think its silly to brag about not supporting the game..... and spending a couple of hundred dollars does not give you any rights to brag...
Wow I'm lucky to farm the 8000 dilith on my only 50 after 6-7 hours of game time, mostly spent doing elite borge fleet runs. I'd be happy to have a damn multi vector assault console at this point. How people are amassing these huge armadas and getting dilith capped in 2 hours just leaves me stupefied.

Uhm, you can change 50 marks for 500 Dil, takes 15 seconds, same for unused borg neural processors, 5 = 1K dil in 15 seconds.
Dil minning 1K in about 10 mins.
each Elite STF should give you about 1K anyway, taking somewhat arround 15 mins each.
leaving you at 55 mins and 30 seconds, given you trade in only 5 neurals and 50 marks.
so far you got 5,500 Dil.
now do the Lore missions in your academy, thats another 480, lets say 500 and not count the small ammounts from your doff missions, which should run anyway.
6K
Now one or two more fast player created missions, like some of the farming missions.
There you go, easy and fast 8K in under two hours.
If you spend some EC on keys and get Rich dil claims, thats 5K in 60 seconds.
ATM i get to the daily cap of 8K in about 1 hour max on my chars.

When I talk about how much Dilithium people can earn it's generally in conjunction with someone demanding the Dilithuim Cap get raised because Cryptic's cheating them by limiting it to 8k. It's not about bragging. It's simply about saying anyone can do whatever they want in this game if they simply do it rather then whining about what they can't do. Play smarter, not longer.
And I'm sorry that my 3 box sets and my LTS and all the ships I bought before the game went FTP isn't enough expense for me to be a valued Cryptic customer in your eyes, but frankly kiddo I don't care what you think. If Cryptic didn't want people to play for free they wouldn't have made the game FTP. If Cryptic didn't want people earning Dilithium they simply wouldn't have added it to the game. It's really just that simple.
It's not your job to judge how other people play the game. You're not the Dilithium police. Live within your own skin and stop trying to tell others how they should act. It's just not your job.

You come across as a reasonable person with a reasonable argument until you use condescending term like Kiddo... then you just look like an arrogant moron. The ammount of money you spend on the game does not make your opinion matter anymore than someone that has spent less or nothing... if it did them most likely my opinion would matter more than yours.
Not at any point have I been the "Dilithium police", I have even said there is nothing wrong with what you do in terms of earning dilithium/zen.... its not even an issue when you tell people how much they can earn in a month but you had to slap that bit in at the end "haven't spent a dime of my own money since the game went FTP.:)" That is what makes you look smug and arrogant. Just remember, your a nobody.... just like the rest of us.
Anyway I know you never give up if someone disagrees with you over something and this argument could go on forever (I don't know why it escalated this far) but I'm finding it boring now so good day to you Sir.
We spend thousands of dollars on this game, whether you are F2P or Lifer.
Very few actually do not spend money.
Sooner or later, you will spend--because you like Star Trek and you like being in charge.
Bottom line, people spend more that $1,000 on this game. They spend at least $10,000 over the course of their gaming life time on here.
Good to know, huh.
Now, if we could just get those hamsters to keep the servers going and the tech people to keep the game bug free. :P
and yet there are mmos outthere with 1000 times more content ,more detail ,less bugs ,better support ,better connection ,less lag but without people in them who spend that much.a x% from the profit normaly goes back in the game...well in sto most likely that x% is 0,00001% lol
