Here is my suggestion for a slight change in the game..
From what i hear. the "Captains Table" zone is a ghost town.. and only LTS or whatever can even go there.. big woo..
soo .. how about this
make the "Captains Table " space anamoly thingamabob into "Q's Discount Shipyard "
any past or future event that had a ship as a reward.. that ship becomes an account unlock, retroactively
all accounts who unlock a event ship can claim it again while visiting Q there on any character new or veteran like a CSTore ship..
*** other forums posts point to Tacofangs moving the ESD Captains table to Club 47 when it gets pushed to Holodeck ***
Even if Q places a small price of a mission to keep his favor that must be repeated for each claimed ship.. that would be a very reasonable price.
I really hope that the community can see the bright side of this idea and lets get the Developers in on it.. would make there job easier since they will hear less complaints about the events. Thus making there job more joyful.
dare i ask the question.... what the feck is the "Captains Table" zone i keep hearing about?
It's a subscriber-only (maybe Veteran/LTS-only?) social map accessible from the nebula thing outside ESD (and presumably a similar place on Qo'nos).

There used to be a picture here, but they changed signatures and I can't be bothered to replace it.

Vet/LTS only area. I do like the idea that makes the captains table a more viable location, and for us that are LTS giving us ships that we got from events even for dilithium on our other characters is a good perk

Basic premise is, they walk though a door and enter an interdimensional bar where they sit and tell stories. Only captains and commanders in charge of ships get access.

any screenshots of the area at all? is it even worth it or well done?
It's actually a nice place to visit, it looks awesome but yeah there isn't anything special there to do that isn't available at most space stations. TBH its not a good reason to buy a LTS.

What the Captain's table needs is to have more facilities that are to be found on the standard starbases. As it is now, quite a few of them are missing which really decreases the usefullness of the area.

Except the those ships are in the lobi store and fleet ship store.

Not all of them.
Ships like the winter event ships and summer event ships (which are time gated character unlocks that only come up in their respective events), The holy Bugship (from the first Winter Event and occasional DOff pack promos), and the Kamarag and Ambassador retrofits (Not the fleet variants, the T5 variants thate were available during the event) are not available via Lobi or Fleet store.
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

It is an inverted Hapan Battle Dragon. :P
But, yes the map is nifty. There is just nothing to do there. So I support this suggestion. anything to give the place a reason to be visited is good by me.

Here: http://sto.gamepedia.com/The_Captain%27s_Table It hasn't really changed since launch and is quite empty at times.

Add a swap feature for different weapon colors. So I could make my AP red purple or w/e.
Kinda a moot point in a pay 2 win game.
Yes, I like STO, but don't even try to pretend it isn't.
