Well for sure this outage is gonna make this thread become one of the most replied ever. For what I saw the one on 1st place has 5k replies and then goes to 2k'ers. Lets make sure we break that record
Maybe for down threads sure. There are some threads with tens of thousands of replies in ten forward

Of course not, it's running just fine. We are just posting for fun here. :mad:
Tribble is! Damn I feel like a fool now having spent time here rather than in the new ESD!
Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go find my way into space.

Looking for something new to play? I've started building Foundry missions again in visual novel form!
I do. I can create an account for free, log in for free, and play every single mission in the game for free. Furthermore, I can get any item in the game store I want for free by trading dilithium for zen. So to recap, I can play every single mission in the game and get any item in the game store without spending any of my money. So yeah, I call that free.

There's always that painful moment between the hope of getting back online for the day, and the inevitable sadness of realizing that night has fallen, and you've been left to wait until at least next morning.

Thank you for the compliment. There are lots of better authors out there. Please check out the Purity series. There are so many great authors out there, but unfortunately, you usually have to know what to custom search for since the UI is terrible and the lists are mostly 50% shooting shieldless ships in a barrel for trash ECs.

Free would engender that *any* item you get in game was not originally purchased with real-world money.
And that of course is not true, when you trade for ZEN it is paid for by design... just because you didn't pay for it does not mean there was not a real world monetary transaction that took place.
If the game was "truly free" it would have gone bust by now because shinnies and boxes are the only thing that keep the game ticking over... it certainly ain't the story content
In addition if you're grinding in order to get items you'd end up paying money for all it says for you is that you value the money you earn more than the time it would take grind to get the stuff. For people like me for whom out time is more valuable than money... grinding stuff for free is a waste of a far more important resource than money... you can always make more money but time is a finite resource
And if I do find a lockbox, and I am actually interested in what is inside(which I usually am not), I can take some dilithium and trade it for zen, then buy a key to open the lockbox without spending any of my own money. It cant get any more free than that.
For anyone getting impatient, I'd like to remind you that Cryptic/PW is losing money every second this game is offline. As much as you want to get in game so you can enjoy your Friday night at home playing video games, Cryptic's motivation to get the game up and running is actually far stronger than yours.[/QUO
I agree with this person, and besides the money Cryptic's losing, some ones probably got an angry Japanese company breathing down there neck.
not to offend, as a multitude of colors and tongues, are one of the great joys in life

good question ..why did you ? lol
this is "the ARC becomes mandatory update" , disguised as a server error...
(strangely enough that i logged in via arc and could log in on tribble) while the steam or the old CD launcher dont work at all.
