Unless whatever's happening gets fixed, the forums are DOOMED to suffer my presence since I can't get in game...
"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross; but it's not for the timid." -- Q, TNG: "Q-Who?"

No... the DOOM is that this is going to open the game up more to people wanting the Into Darkness ship... "Vengence" or whatever it's called.
Before, it could be said that "Even if we could get the rights to use the ship, the Federation doesn't have battlecruisers in STO." Now the Federation will have a battlecruiser and we'll be DOOMED to be swamped with topics asking for "The battlecruiser from 'Into Darkness'."

And now... a short story from MasterDOOM Theatre...

"Captain! There's a Borg implant in the ship's primary computer core; it's trying to take over the ship!"
"Reconfigure the individual consoles, that should fix the situation."
"What about the implant, Sir?"
"Forget about the implant, Ensign, the problem has to be with the consoles."
The Ensign shook her head, muttering to herself, "We're all doomed..."

Thank you, this has been a presentation of MasterDOOM Theatre.

Which is worse, do you think;
Impending DOOM or eventual DOOM?
I had thought about getting an LTS to STO sometime over the next few months, but then I did some information gathering because of the "Crashing at 75% on the Cryptic load screen" problem and discovered the fact that my computer is appearantly old enough that the Intel GMA chipset for graphics isn't even considered worth mentioning by employees at an electronics store when asked about the differences in graphics cards...
If I buy a new computer, that means more memory and a better graphics card to play the game on (hopefully breaking free of the 75% problem, too). But it would mean putting any plans for an LTS or anything on the back burner because I'd have to buy the new computer... (Not to mention transfer my files to said new computer...)
Impending (don't buy it) DOOM or Eventual (buy it) DOOM?

Ha! It is Doom! You can't get me with that - for I too am a fan of Monty Python! In fact... get up out of that hole!

This just in; London DOOMED to obscurity as the Federation Ministry of Silly Walks relocates its headquarters to Risa. Ministry official quoted as saying "Well, old chap, what with all the dancing and wotnot, we figured it would be quite a lark, h'actually."

I heard the Ministry moved to go into hiding, apparently they owed serious money to the Crimson Permanent Assurance. Well...if I found one of my work colleagues dead with a ceiling fan blade through the chest and used teabags taped to their eyes I'd go underground too.
Hm. And here I was thinking their reason for going into hiding was related to the threats from the CFAACC relating to burying cats before they went on vacations.
Nasty lot, that Caitain/Ferasan Association Against Cruelty to Cats...
Still, better than the 'you-know-who'...

Son: "Hello, Mum. Hello, Dad."
Dad: "Hello, Son."
Son: "There's another doomed Jar-Jar on the landing."
Dad: "Really?"
Mum: "What's his diocese?"
Son: "Looks a bit Bars & Wells-ish, I'd say."
Dad: "Perhaps we should call the Police."
Mum: "Why not call the Wookie Police?"
Dad: "All right."
All: "The Wookie Police!"

Mum: "Are you the Wookie Police?"
Leader: (growls incomprensibly, translated as: "Oh, yes!")
Mum: "There's another doomed Jar-Jar on the landing."
Leader: "Is that rat pudding?"
Mum: "Er, yes."
Leader: (more incomprensible growling, translated as: "Disgusting. All right, men. The chase is on. We should all kneel. Oh, Force. We beseech thee. Who croaked Lester?")

The only ship class that wasn't successfully launched from Utopia Planitia: the Doomed Class. Parts: ill-fated. Manufacturing: ill-fated. Maiden voyage: complete disaster, all hands and feet lost (I know; that stumped me too). Space iceberg blamed, but lawyers defend the iceberg ("It didn't know what it was doing"). Senate committee created, to be chaired by Senator Jar-Jar Binks. Throwing spitballs at the senator will not be tolerated ... while the committee is in session. First witless witness is the ships' designer: I. M. von Absolut Wurst:
"You mean someone actually tried to build it? But it was meant to be a joke. Just a silly, stupid joke. You weren't supposed to take me seriously."
"Mesathinks you should never have submitted the doomed design at all, Mr. Wurst," Senator Binks says.
"I couldn't agree more," Chancellor Palpatine says. "Perhaps a fittingly doomed punishment for Mr. Wurst?"
"Mesathinks watching reruns of me in Star Wars I, in an endless loop," Senator Binks says.
"We're doomed. We're doomed and I want tacos for it."

Oh, I'm a doomberjack and I'm not okay
I fail all night and I'm doomed all day
Oh, he's a doomberjack and he's not okay
He fails all night and he's doomed all day
I wish I were a vampire just like my dear ol' Vlad
Put on a cape, add false teeth, and fly around as bats
He wishes he were a vampire just like his dear ol' Vlad
Put on a cape, add false teeth, and fly around as bats
still do not get why this is still is Star Trek Online General Discussion do we have cherry pickers now?
When the new AFK changes go live I expect this thread to be a very nice counter-point to all the negative spam that will fill this section of the forum.
