    There is a big game named ******** something it has been on for many years, and has never gone down. Downtime only happens to STO...

    Holodeck = Still Down
    Tribble = Up but graphics reset to default on login but its up.

    I'd heard that F2P players can't (currently?) get access to Tribble; separate but related, does anyone know how to set that up with the Mac client - or does it require the Windows client?

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    As far as I am told: Yes...

    If it makes you feel better, this is actually not that common... If you experience DC's often, try to switch to a Proxy... That sometimes helps.

    It was MUCH much worse in the beginning of the game... It's really not that bad now, you just hit a bad zone.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    There are merit badges associated with it.

    Those of us who were here remember the rollout of season eight: the crash, the fix of the crash, the crash of the fix and the fix of the fix.

    For this type of game (aka Free2Play)? Depends on the company who is behind it all.
    Believe me, there can be worse companies. But there can also be better ones.

    I hate responding to people, can you guys talk about me without quoting or maybe not using my name in the post? It's hard to read the relevant info when I see others directly posting here towards me when it should be directed at the topic...

    Make up some new name like "Tameboar" or "Wildbanned" that way I won't respond to you and can keep my postings on the topic of the server being down

    dude for real get off your high horse and stop replying to anything .. and maybe JUST maybe they will leave you alone ..just saying

    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    OH GOD, i remember that guy. 80 page thread about how he was supposedly better than all of us and how his ideas were not only perfect, but they would definitely be added to the game. Best week on this forum i have ever had.
