Played the game. Done the down time. Wore the T shirt.
Time to move on me thinks.
Don't give up yet
The first week of an MMO is never plain sailing, and on the positive side, things can only get better. Of course, if it's the gameplay you don't enjoy then that's another matter. But if it is just the server going up and down, I'm sure it will settle soon enough.

You make a good point, the good game play makes the short term difficulties that have nothing to do with the game itself, server load, easy to get through.
Well, I for one am so very glad that the OP is finally able to "officially" speak for himself.
About the /ragequits, IMHO, the people that do this are probably not the best sort of folks to have around playing a game because they were ticking-time-bombs long before they ever logged into STO and probably would not have stayed long-term.
Granted the larger the player-base, the more money the developer gets to make better content more readily available. I understand that completely.
I remember how we met in the bathroom of that Walmart where you were going on a late night run for diapers and ketchup.
I remember how our friendship cultivated into something real; something magical. All other melted away, and nothing would deter the two of us from expressing our new found love.
I remember the walks on the beach we used to share.
I remember the kind words of tenderness that would slip between our lips with shallow breath as we gazed into each others' eyes as the moonlight blazed brightly.
I remember the struggles we endured as a new couple trying to endure the hardships of a bad economy and the catastrophic times of our STO server crashing and undergoing maintenance.
I... I need a moment to compose. Sorry.
I remember how you changed. Once full of life and brimming with joy, the dark days of the excessive drinking and refusal to believe the baby was even yours.
I remember the call to your family when you lashed out after dying to the Crystalline Entity after the buff. I understand other people were making it more difficult than it needed to be, but you didn't have to put a hole in the wall over it.
And then... then one day, you just left. You left everything behind. Mortgage... children... and worst of all...
Our love.
I still remember, Hawk.
Why do I remember it all? Because it was a week of STO being live I will never truly ever forget. All of it, because of the special snowflake you are, and the unchanging impact you've given my life.
Others will flame you, some may even sympathize, but I...

A lot of mmo's have server problems the first week. Sometimes the first month. Don't give up so easy, especially when new servers are coming online this week end. You have a free month might as well keep playing eh?

Just say:

10 char madness
Because, encouraging people to /ragequit affects those who are staying. Plain and simple:
Players
+ more players
+ no rage quits
= more content for everyone in the long run.
You'd think everyone who rages against the /ragequits would get that...

WOW, the drugs worked
You're right. It was maybe an absurd post.
I apologize.
The good news, though, is that my one, silly little post in a forum full of thoughtful and constructive threads is hardly even worth mention--
Wait.
-Dragon
Understandable.
But think of the Tribbles.
But look at all the various responses his simple posting received!
