    I wonder if it might not be too much of an imposition to ask that the admins might possibly like to do their friggin' jobs? I wouldn't like to be a bother, but I would like to know.

    Man, I hope this fix it. All this does is remind me of how much of a real life I don't have, and whenever I have to face that, I become seriously depressed.

    During a single Borg space encounter, I got disconnected twice and probably would have been three disconnects, if not for the fact that the Borg ship being never appeared at all! That's a continuing bug in many Borg space encounters, which is a complete waste of time; no Borg ship, no payout. And now swarms of disconnects? Cryptic needs to get stuff working or what is the point of trying to play?

    Yeah, me too. Every few minutes. I gave up and logged for the day.
    My Old Blog about things that could and should have been added when I wrote it. Not sure what I want to do with it now. I'll just keep it available now that most of it is outdated.

    I've given up. Its getting worse, it was a case of being disconnected after a few minutes, now I'm getting DC'd as soon as I log in. So I'm pulling the plug for the night.
    Oh, it's not broken? We can soon fix that!

    Trust me on this, it's lying...
    Sure, you can connect for a minute or two, but you'll be back at the login screen before you know it and when you log back in, you're in the middle of a fireball with a respawn counter.

    I find the lack of server stability... disturbing.

    Seriously, this is beyond tedious at this point. Was able to get 2 of my three chars through Mirror Event just fine, but my main... I had roughly counting at least 12 server disconnects, but was able to finish, in the end.

    I wonder what the heck is going on, the servers have not been this unstable in some time now, and certainly not for this long a time period.

    Getting SNR, the disconnect after 20 some seconds... Not fun.

    I am also getting dissconnected every few minutes regardless what i am doing.

    started about 2 hours ago for me, coming from the UK.

    tried two different isp's so i know its not at my end.

    Is there actually a server light somewhere that indicates when it's up or not? Is there a page where you can check it (even if it's completely inaccurate as I suspect it is)?

    sigh. went away and watched Dr Who Finale as i was fed up getting partway through mission and having to restart it.

    Get back on the server only to get partway through the mission and SNR and DC.

    Well Played Cryptic. Trolling Players Par Excellence.

    (8th attempt at mission btw)

    so its disconnecting me without fail all the time within half a minute to 3 minutes and not more then that, i was in the middle of completing that final dq mission against the vaadwuar however because of the lag and dc it has failed to recognise i just completed it.

    anyways, ive had enough. i hope tomorrow is better. save the doom mongering on reserve.
    T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW.

    Totally down on my end now -- can't log in at all.

    No sign of life on twitter either, no one seems to be aware of the problem.

    Good to know it's not just me. At first, I couldn't connect at all and now I can't keep a character logged in for more than a few minutes.

    I gave up playing 2 and a half hours ago. I'm using this time to bathe, eat and generally take care of myself before the servers go back up and I become one with the collective once more, laying in my own urine and smelling quite savory.

    Why start a new thread about it?

    Well it was happening earlier. And for a while it was Working. So now its happening again and that "other thread" isn't really valid. They just want to keep it neat and tidy. The players just want it fixed.

    Star Trek Offline. Been three hours, already watched a movie. Still bored now. I login, wait a moment, get 15 pips of Server not reponding and boof, back to desktop and perhaps another movie.

    Perhaps that secret device at the end of the Vaadwaur arc was STO was going to blow up.

    I know the Dev's don't work at the weekend, but surely someone's in to feed the cat. Perhaps the cat has nibbled on the server wires.

    Maybe the more threads made, the faster they'll get off their butts and fix it?

    Been hours now since the first incident and the only official word we've had has been relayed from a GM through a player. This is a large gaming company, which should at the very least make some official statement about it. Weekend or not, somebody should at least make an effort to tell us what is going on and how long they expect it to last. I'd take a best guess even.

    They should change the name of this thread to "Working as intended"
