Funny... How often is the server down out side a maintenance period? Yeah... exactly... So you pick the time it goes down to complain about how your day is ruined?
Read a book.
Go outside.
Socialize with friends... NOT the online ones. Unless that's all you have in which case I feel sorry for you.
Do something constructive. Geeze. Games are not what living life is all about.
Some of us enjoy being in the MMO that we PAY for and have dropped REAL MONEY into! Just because They wanted to play a game THEY PAID FOR, doesn't mean they don't have a life. Why are all these a&&hats Trolling AND NO ONE FROM PWE IS Moderating OR GIVING AN ETA?
They do need "their noses rubbed in it," It might motivate them to do better. If you continuously release broken content, you should expect some pushback.
And how would you like it if I came over every time something went wrong for you and rubbed YOUR nose in it whether it was your fault or no? You wouldn't like it...so don't do it to them.

They work for the same side, trust me...
WELL IF THE JAPORI INCIDENT HAS TAUGHT ME ANYTHING, IT'S THAT MY EXISTENCE IS AN EXPLOIT. THANKS CRYPTIC.
IF YOU ARE READING MY SIG - THEN YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG

I think someone needs a piece of humble pie.
Yes...
You.
Your QQing will have NO effect on their motivation. The mere fact that you have said that shows how incredibly naive your are.

If you think I'm trolling, then you've already proven to everyone here just far up your posterior your head is.
Stuff happens, cupcake. You cannot reasonably assume that a server is going to be up 100% of the time and that it will not always 100% fit within your scheduled STO time. That's just arrogant presumption.

Oh grow up. Some of us have a real life and the reason we are so pissed is that we don't have much time to play as it is, so when the few precious hours we do have to play are taken by the game being down, it is annoying.

Yes, but these people have a legitimate complaint regarding unscheduled downtime.
I don't think you're trolling, but you're definitely instigating.

Coming from the person complaining that the game is down. Yup, you're a bright one.
Considering how quickly Cryptic came up with STO after Perpetual lost the bid, I'm really surprised STO is so stable.
With a major expansion coming, especially since this expansion does so many things - R&D, new factions, a bunch of STFs, more - this is to be expected. STO is not run by magical, evil goblins who decide "HRRM I THINK I WILL TAKE THE SERVER DOWN TO SPITE <insert player name here>. MUAHAHAHAHAHA. AND THEN, THE WORLD WILL BE MIIIIINE!" and they go off to twirl their perfectly quaffed mustaches.
They're probably scrambling and swearing and sweating to get STO back up as quickly as possible... because downtime is bad, for obvious reasons. Cut 'em a friggin' break. Go outside. Read a book. Flirt with a male/female (whichever applies to your preferred sexual preferences). Do something more productive than whining "butbutbut I wanna play STO RITE NOW" on the forums.
Accept "okay, my MMO of choice is down". Yes, that sucks. Boo freakin' hoo.
Many of the devs aren't just Cryptic employees - they're Star Trek fans and STO players themselves, they probably want to get back into the game just as much as the rest of us do.

^Words that every player should keep in mind, especially whenever there's a problem with the game...

Then some of you need to read the terms of service before you PAY for something because complaining about something thats clearly outlined in the contract (outages) just seems annoying to most common sensed people. Besides, its been down for what? A few hours.
The universe will not collapse for anyone.. even you .. if you don't get to play STO for half a day. Even if we were still paying a subscription for this and shelling out 15$ a month several hours only translates to a few cents. I know I have dropped way way more to play arcade games for way way less time.
A good IT customer service rep will never give an ETA, know why? Cause computers are enigmas.. TRIBBLE breaks for no reason and sorting through hardware/software can sometimes be the most confounding and frustrating roaring pain in the A&& in the world, and if you tell someone "We should have it back up in an hour", and you don't .. they will only complain that much more. There for we get the ever omnipresent SOON™.

I agree with ya 100%! And glad to see someone not walking on eggshells to put the point across.

Wow... Pathetic.
Curious... How often does the server going down crimp your style?
If it's sooooo bad, stop paying to play. It's that simple.
Don't forget to vacuum and do the windows too.

I agreed with most of what you said, but the quoted text is unnecessary.

few hours later:
"we aint found ****"

Perfectly necessary. Not your place to say otherwise.

Not naive, angry.
Yes, quite.

Instigating? No... Annoyed with idiotic, unreasonable expectations? Yes.
And what do you expect the results of your rant will get you?
Wasted energy is all.
The expectation that a product will be delivered without broken features is not unreasonable, it is business.
Is it hard being as much of an a$$hole as you are, or does it come naturally to you?

Then like me, you should leave this particular board now. You clearly want to just draw more attention to yourself by belittling others.
Good job not trolling though.
