I know that now is the time when Cryptic is planning for the Summer Event, so where can I send in my suggestions? I'd like to see water gun and balloon fights on Risa. We've got an arsenal of snowball weaponry in the Winter Event, how about some water guns for the Summer Event?
I keep thinking that the caldera area would be a great place to have a water balloon/super soaker "battleground".

I wouldn't mind a queue where someone deactivates the weather control system and you have to work together to stop them and reactivate it, I got the idea from the DS9 episode "Let He Who Is Without Sin" where Worf deactivates the weather control system.
I like the idea of a water fight. And a water gun arsenal gives us another set of things to buy.
On a related note, how about making winter and summer stuff reclaimable from the store after you've bought them. It's a bit of a pain to have to store them in your bank all year round.
And I definitely support both T6 versions of the two current Risa ships and a new T6 Risian Science Vessel.
T6 Risian Science Vessel should have an Ion Storm Generator that creates an AOE hull and shield damage effect. I picture a globe with diagonal particle streaks flashing through it.
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

I want a night time Risa map. Balloons(just like grenades), waterguns, you could even make a tiki fire spirit minigame where you have to hose/extinguish the spirit in the caldera with water weapons. Before turning those water weapons on your friends to help cool off.
Rock climbing. Before I got my first jetpack I tried to climb all the spires on the Risa map. Now, sure, I can jetpack anywhere and I even got an accolade for it, but there is still one place I cannot climb without jetpack assistance.
I once recommended a Yellow Submarine which acts as a transition to other Risa maps. It could travel to:
Harbor: rent a sailboat and sail around the various islands for a day, with races. Perhaps you have to rent a Sailboard first, then upgrade after completing some qualification course or event to a 4m catamaran, then to an 8m sloop, then to a 12m trimaran, then to a winged racing monohull.
Reef: rent or buy dive gear to go spear fishing, octopus wrangling, or pearl diving. Snorkle, SCuBA, or Environmental Suit (if you just want to walk around on the bottom.) Tag fish species for 'research' if you don't want to eat them at the beach party. (But Blackened Risian Swordfish is a dish to die for! Literally. They will probably kill you.)
Sea-Cliffs: Climb the cliffs for fun, to tag seabirds in their nest for research, or to find cool new paces to dive into the water below.
New Atlantis: Undersea Arcology from TAS which focuses on aquaculture. Swim out to chase off the sea turtles which are eating the seaweed crops, or participate in the Turtle Races in which teams use prods to get the turtles to move beyond the perimeter of the farms.

Also I second the notion of a T6 Corvette.
