Not anymore, doom befell it in the form of Smirk.
At least we made fun of all the Doom and Gloom that people kept posting because most of it was unfounded or overreacting.

If you mean the FCT, then I must tell you that the last I knew, it told us to put all doom posts in the doom thread only. It only did not want people constantly making new doom threads, that is its role, FCT, Frequently Created Threads.
Now I'm gonna see people throwing the FCT into the wind and it's gonna be doomagedon.

Where have you been? Doom posts have been banned (as in closed immediately) for a while now. Welcome to Earth.
^^ This
They thought they were funny and clever but in reality they punished many from their childish actions.
Thanks freaking loads, guys.
And the poor mods had no choice in the face of the evil comunity.
That was doom threads, not doom posts, doom posts were told to go into the doom thread.
To be honest I think the mods have shot themselves in the foot with this one, the huge doom thread was the only thing preventing the return to the old situation of having half a dozen new doom threads every week.
Why should Cryptic be obligated to let people befoul their private property - these forums? It's not like the Terms of Service are obscure, or difficult to find...
There was half a dozen new doom threads. There is a few right now on page 1 of General Discussion
Because they mistrat the playerbase with crappy content and mocking statments like Players love DR, and you can defent their right all you want, but the forum gone still get a lot off pissed people complaining with or without rules. like it or not...unless they ban everyone that dissent.
There was some worry before DR was announced, we all knew that the content was getting smaller and smaller, and that Expansion Two had to not be bad, after all, that is where most of the resources went to. And where did I post? The doom thread. The doom thread is like a pressure release valve on a water heater. Now, with out anywhere for the building pressure to go, we best find a bunker before the water heater blasts its way out of the house and comes crashing back to earth.
you want to complain about the game post in any of the 500 thread complaining every day. you want to shout 'doom' expect it to get closed. it's been that way since july.
Does your head hurt yet? Still more fun than grinding dilithium to upgrade gear...
like my reply to bluegek after warn - its waste of time, explaining anything, now we have forum in total fire - thats really bad marketing to any company... but i dont care about that, everything is awesome here ^^
Can't do that... I've used all my dilithium for today
Doesn't help with our instinct to preserve STO. I'd also be careful not to troll.
But if there is a masive ban of "pseudoaccounts" ¿who loses more? ¿the pep benig censored or the company that get a very bad image of their capacity at manage a discontent cumunity and that any new player/wallet could see?
Remeber something, there is many other ways of comunicate discontent, fb, ts, wasup, twiter etc, but when a new player comes and get into a fleet to look for help and support he will ask ¿do i should buy x thing? and many of the pissed people in game are on fleet, just imagine their answer... then you see why keep a bad relation with the comunity can lead to people not telling good things about the game to their new players.
So Who loses more, the one with a "pseudoaccount banned" or the comapny who can lose a sale?
Because this is not a private party its a public space and kicking people out because you dont like there opinion is going against freedom of speech
