If you bothered to read this thread you'd know many have tried reporting this thread to get it locked, but all their attempts were DOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMED because despite everything they've tried this thread hasn't violated any forum rules so the Mods won't lock it.
I wouldn't go so far as to say none of the posts violate forum rules. If you want to be technical about it, a good portion of them fall under the forum definition of spamming.
But, us forum users would be traumatized if all our DOOOM vanished. We know it's bad for us, but we have an addiction and everybody knows what can happen when addicts go into sudden withdrawal.
It could be fatal, man. Too much shock for the system.
So we let you get your DOOOM fix here as a public service.
As long as you aren't trying to peddle DOOOM to the kiddies or stealing to support your DOOOM habit or committing acts of DOOOM on innocent bystanders, we can overlook it. We'd rather you guys didn't DOOOM at all, but as long as you keep it in here and don't spread it around we'll settle for that.

It is entertaining. I read it for the chuckles. Yes, it's true, I chuckle at DOOOoOOOOOmMM!!!1!
Nitpicking is a time-honored tradition of science fiction. Asking your readers not to worry about the "little things" is like asking a dog not to sniff at people's crotches. If there's something that appears to violate natural laws, then you can expect someone's going to point it out. That's just the way things are.

Yeah, that was funny.

What's good for you is that instances are not always numbered sequentially, they open and close as needed. There is also no guarantee that the other instances were anywhere near full either as they are load balanced. You are lucky there are people on Risa to interact with!
I've been playing this game for several years now, and I have always been more than impressed with the robust community of players that populate STO. Looking at the threads in this forum, I can tell that people really care about this game. Not just This is a fun game to play in my spare time kind of care, but in the I am going to pop cyanide if I can't use my nerve tonics on Risa kind of way, and I, for one, think that's refreshing. I enjoy spending my time, both in-game and on these forums, with like minded Trek fans, discussing important issues like butt sliders for female characters and upside-down insignias on one rarely-seen NPC character.
However, I logged on the game earlier, wound up on Risa -- instance number 39 -- and realized that there were ONLY seventeen people in my particular instance. Could this be a sign of things to come? Is this the beginning of an exodus away from STO? I noticed that several players I knew from two years ago no longer play the game, and I'm getting worried.

Devs? Mods? Anyone? Thoughts on this?
Yeah the game is over. pack and your bags and walk away.

whato, so you focus specifically on just 1 instance and forget the 40 or so other instances that go from 5 players to full load? /facepalm.
and yes i know your trolling.
T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW. Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
Risa is absolutely crawling with people. look at all of those instances. I get up at 5 and 6 am to try and get a 3rd place in the race and can no longer do it. get a grip.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: "We think we've come so far. Torture of heretics, burning of witches, it's all ancient history. Then - before you can blink an eye - suddenly it threatens to start all over again."
"With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably."
Maybe people just aren't lured into continious grinds anymore and are somewhere else, doing things they think is fun, or at least rewards something they can use outside of the summer event?
Just a thought.
Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

Though it pains me to admit it I think you could be right. With the rousing success of the Xbone sounding the death knell for PC gaming and the failure of Christ Roberts to raise enough crowdfunding for his latest bid to become world president I fear for the future, I really do.

Or dino's with lasers aux crevettes with a P2W sauce
served in a provencale manner with JJTrek and dead horses
garnished with a Third Reich pate, canon and a fried PvP on top and Doom.
aelfwin1:
Have you got anything without Doom?
bluegeek:
Well, the Doom, PvP, Tier 5 Connie, and Doom
That's not got much Doom in it
aelfwin1:
I don't want any Doom!
aloishammer:
Why can't aelfwin1 have PvP, crafting, Doom, and Tier 5 Connie?
aelfwin1:
That's got Doom in it!
Customer:
Hasn't got much Doom in it as Doom, PvP, Tier 5 Connie and Doom has it?
(Dentals: Doom! Doom! Doom!...)
aelfwin1:
Could you do me PvP, crafting, Doom and Tier 5 Connie without the Doom , then?
bluegeek:
Iiiiiiiiiiiich!!
aelfwin1:
What do you mean 'Iiiiiiiiiich'? I don't like Doom!
(Dentals: Lovely Doom! Wonderful Doom!)
bluegeek (to Dentals):
Shut up!
(Dentals: Lovely Doom! Wonderful Doom!)
bluegeek:
Shut Up! Bloody Dentals!
You can't have PvP, crafting, Doom and Tier 5 Connie without the Doom
aelfwin1:
I don't like Doom!
aloishammer:
Shush aelfwin1, don't have a fuss. I'll have your Doom. I love it,
I'm having Doom, Doom, Doom, Doom, Doom, Doom, Party Amps, Doom, Doom, Doom and Doom.
This looks like a post from the first few months of the game... LoL

So it could go to the car show this afternoon and the free Darius Rucker concert at the casino this evening. Even Doom deserves a break now and then.
However,
Doom will be back on duty locked and loaded at oh-dark-thrity tomorrow morning. So put your affairs in order. Because tomorrow morning just after sunrise, we're all doooommmeeeddd!
A six year old boy and his starship. Living the dream.
but as long as you keep it in here and don't spread it around we'll settle for that.
Except that ain't happening ... .
It's much easier to yell DOOOOMMM in many a thread in the forums today then actually come up with a well conceived counter argument .
But, us forum users would be traumatized if all our DOOOM vanished. We know it's bad for us, but we have an addiction and everybody knows what can happen when addicts go into sudden withdrawal.
Your DOOOOOOOOMMM would be quite safe in the Ten Forward forum .
In fact , I see it fitting in perfectly between the threads :
"Ban the person above you! Any reason at all! "
and
"Last Post Wins 3.0"
However if you see this thread relevant to this forum : Star Trek Online General Discussion -- which is described as :
"This forum is for general discussion and feedback related to Star Trek Online"
Then perhaps you'd like to let us in on the inside track as to why this game is DOOOOOOMMMMM-ed ?
If you check you'll see I was the one who posted it a few months ago in this thread. :P
Heh...
I meant as in the exact same complaints seen in the first couple of months of the game opening.

It's nice to have a Red Dooooooooooom District.
So this is my thoughts on your story.
What you did there...I see it.
Yeah the game is over. pack and your bags and walk away.

I'll take that as a compliment .
My friends list had 21 people on it just now, but it keeps fluctuating because 1 person keeps logging off and logging on to different alts.
This constant teetering of 20-21 has me very concerned for the future of STO.
