    Just because Tribble was gold only doesn't mean that all gold players were playing on it. It doesn't make sense to make all of them go last.

    To be honest it was clear from the subtle hints you could pick up from the livestreams and the state of the feedback forums for tribble that the gold's on there weren't trying very hard. Most of the missions and new systems have practically no feedback.

    The only thread that had mostly constructive and valid feedback was the upgrade system and the devs refused to talk about the issues there, so I'm expecting a lot of rage. For once it'll probably be valid too.

    I no longer do any Bug Hunting work for Cryptic. I may resume if a serious attempt to fix the game is made.

    there isnt a single post on the 1st 2 pages of the tribble feedback thread that even mention the upgrade system.. its all ui, mission and q issues, with some costume, tailor and npc bugs.. so not quite sure where you are getting your information from??

    *and since when have Smirk and Trendy been subtle about anything??

    Rage... Patchnotes... Rage... Server Downtime... Rage...
    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.

    Yea...

    I wonder where I put that post where I listed all the rage things...

    Also, I'd like cookies... Or just to get out of work... I am bored...

    yeah, that is always worth a giggle, and to be fair, the ranting of others does help the time pass nicely :)

    I don't have a good feeling about how this expansion is going to be rolled out. 06:00 -10:00 PST is not 01:00 - 05:00 UTC as advertised in the laucher, and if they can't tell the time correctly what hope is there for the rest of the expansion?

    The rage I can cope with. The impatience is quite amusing.

    The demands for compensation (the serious ones) are tiresome and annoying though.

    It is a good day to watch the whining! :D

    Not sure how this is related... The time wasn't even announced by a dev, but by the webteam/Community reps...

    After all, you don't expect the nurse to do heart surgery at a hospital, do you?

    Someone mentioned yesterday that Americans have a preference for the 12hr clock instead of the 24hr. I had myself all geared up thinking id be getting up early this morining to Jeri Ryan and some new ships.. denied!! but at least im managing to get some last minute doffing, rep dailies and crafting projects in before the lights go out.

    It is a bit odd not to have patch notes up though. I guess they'll be a long read.
    Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.

    Well I see it just fine, where are you looking? It's second from the top for me.

    I was referring to things they didn't directly say but was pretty obvious for anyone who knows about what goes on.

    Irland is left from UK on my Map

    and to topic because server will crash at 19:00 i think we cant play today anymore after patch starts

    i dont think cryptic learnd from last season starts and got some extra servers so all can play even after a new season starts and everyone will look at it
    18 Cpt on the way to 60: 14 of them are already 50 or over 50, one is 60 and 3 almost 43

    Didn't sleep well last night due to a backache. Sleep during scheduled down time, then DCUO, and SW:TOR during the emergency maintenance. I don't suppose if we offer bacon burgers to you Trendy, crashes can be avoided?:D

    Gold entitles you to free zen, early access to testing, extra refining and free ships.

    Feeling entitled to get first in line is nothing more than greed.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
