Already I see Exploiting ALOT of it.

Every day I go in an instance I see 2 science vessels back to back in a spawn point and
all they do is heal each other and Shoot everything in site without moving or replying. They are farming
EXP . They are stronger than the mobs so they beat everything and are AFK all day..
This should be banded..

    Maybe they should make the fights a little bit tougher. And perhaps if someone dies there could be a penalty of some sort. Oh wait . . .

    If people want to bot in this game, go ahead, it'll take them a lot longer then actually playing, since in the captain ranks, if you wanna power level you can go into the clusters and get 155 sp per 5-10 minute mission, plus 155 per every 3, then go spend the badges on gear. Or you can grin 3-15sp a kill every few minutes and be there for hours.

    i hate bots there really is no need for them never saw the point. you pay x amount to play the game the you either a. pay someone to grind for you then you get the payoff or b. you grind afk and you loose out of the game play either way youre robbing your self of the whole point of buying the game.

    Exactly Botting typically In MMOs occur when there is a need to level at a 24/7 timeframe since its much faster than random hours... seeing as hour kill X mob receive good exp doesnt exist here, use it near pointless. Questing is SIgnifcantly faster. [yes yes typos sleepy]

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    hmm, name is very similar to someone who kept doing this not long ago.

    I may have confused the forum name, but I feel it is still the same attention seeking person. :P

    I understand you are new and cannot make a thread of your own - thus can only post in established threads - but keep in mind that posting in any thread after 30 days of non-posts is against the Forum rules. Those threads will simply be closed by a Mod or Dev when discovered.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    Really??

    Been a lifer since open beta, so some restrictions are unknown to me :confused:

    So what gives? New forum accounts have to be how old to do stuff then?

    Yeah, many new people post in existing threads stating they cannot make a thread of their own. I do not know if the forum restriction is based on time, number of posts, or Zen purchased. I believe it is two weeks or buying Zen, though.

    I 'botted' once on my old Sega Genesis. Taped down the attack button and stood right where a monster would spawn and it'd walk into my attacks. I let it go for hours! Made quite a bit of 'gold'. :D But that was a 1 player game, so no one was annoyed.

    But in MMOs I agree that if you aren't going to participate why be here at all? So you AKF your way to getting the top gear; then what? Just sit around in the best gear and AFK like a pro?:rolleyes:

    Necropost (nee-kro-post)

    1. (noun) A post which revives an inactive ("dead") conversation on a message board. It generally attracts others who attempt to kill it by fire.

    2. (verb) The act of creating a necropost. DON'T DO IT!

    Synonyms: Spamming


    Please remember to check the dates of threads; and if you find an old thread which violates the PWE Community Rules and Policies or has been inactive for over 30 days before someone replied to it just report it and avoid posting in it.

    Please bear in mind that re-posting in "necro'd" threads is considered a form of spamming.

    Note that you're more than welcome to post in an existing active topic or to start a new thread on the topic if there are no active topics already.

    Live Long and Prosper,
