Yeah, it's annoying. I'd prefer an interact button that I can choose to hail DS9 for docking instead of an in-your-face pop-up.

It's not so bad upon arrival, but being welcomed when I'm leaving is a bit much. I realize when you leave DS9 you 'arrive' on the DS9 area space map, which is the cause of the issue.
I'm not sure how it can be fixed, except perhaps with two different 'arrival' points: one for arrival from the sector space map and one from the DS9 ground map. Then the conversation can be linked to the spawn point. I don't know if that might cause other issues, such as it popping up when you fly around DS9 and pass through the spawn points.
I agree, space the arrogant wretch. If she were one of my crew and she spoke to me with such disrespect, as a Dahar Master I'd be well within my rights to choke her with her own tongue!
As long as we are complaining, please drop the temporal agent who tells you the timeline is ok every time you log on.
Yeah I once joked in Fleet chat that he must be lonely as he keeps contacting my (female) AoY toon constantly.
I'd say that an interact button for DS9 and Drozana would be great ESD, Qu'nos or New Romulus has that so it shouldn't be impossible to do (though I don't know if it would impossible to change or simply not worth the effort) and change the Temporal Agent pop-up to come only when there is a problem in the timeline, after all I don't need a daily reminder that "all is quiet on the western front" so to speak.
A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

Passion and Serenity are one.
I gain power by understanding both.
In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
The Force is united within me.
all of the above, plus STOP TELLING ME HOW TO DOCK EVERY TIME I ENTER EARTH ORBIT!
Due to temporal incursions, the Docking officers are still living in 2409 when the Undine infiltrations were ungoing.
If you have played Borg Disconnected recently and watched the Dreadnought at the end, you'll know that the Undine are horrible pilots.
It's just a precaution
We still need to figure out how those Docking officers know about what happens in Borg Disconnected though - but that's a story and a mission for another time.

If she was on my crew, it's off to the booth for rediscipline
"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."
-Lord Commander Solar Macharius
I say remove all in your face pop ups, or at least move them off to the side as a button. I'll add that dude and his crazy doppleganger that pop up twice when entering CCA to the list as well.
make is so when you zone into a map, if there is a space station or planet you can visit, ala DS9 DS39 K7 Earth, Qeynos etc.. have a dialogue box you can transport down to planet, station or warp out...
if you approach the station or planet manually you get the regular pop up with talking head.
I hate going to Qeynos then needing to fly to planet to beam down... yet for earth I just zone in and can click on beam down to planet or to space station.
The Rising of the Delta is the best expansion ever, and people love it to death because it is a good day to die in the endless struggle for supremacy of your own conviction. (A spin off of the Delta Rising is the best expansion ever and all the players love it.)
As long as we are complaining, please stop asking me whether I want to dock at the station, at ESD, without offering me a different location. Either ask me whether I really want to dock when I click 'dock' (which is by itself slightly redundant), or just dock me: but not whether I really want to dock at the station.

I think that might a limitation of the system as docking at ESD is technically a map transfer to a ground map, I can't think of case where a map transfer from space to ground or the other way around didn't have a confirmation pop-up.

In that case, they should get rid of the other option (to beam down to the Academy), a bit farther out, and just consolidate both locations at the 'dock' guy: at least there's a valid reason for the popup then.
I want an option to turn off NPC popups, in general. I get livid at the bald fat man that won't shut his mouth in the Crystalline queue. Yes, I know what I'm doing. People are already fighting. Shut up. No, don't pop yourself back up because I closed your window too fast. SHUT. UP. God.

Nor should they be. Their ships would look weird.

To each his own. I prefer a more hands-on approach to crew discipline; if it doesn't leave a scar, they don't learn anything.

Not that ever... Please no.
