Sure im going to get flamed for this, but Im having a ball reading all of post about people demanding compensation for the downtime.
Personally, all these issues are making the game "Neat." Its like real life StarTrek. Do you think when new ships and ship systems come out, that they work flawlessly? Think of it like this, they are having all kinds of problems with patches right now, but they are learning about them so they can better face them in the future.... ether that or they are all laughing at us. Ether way its just a game.
Alot of people playing STO have never played an MMO before and dont realize that there is nothing out of the ordinary going on here. Unannounced downtime, or poorly announced downtime is part and parcel for any good sized MMO.
And the sense of entitlement and instant gratification of certain generations also plays a big part in this.

I agree with you. C'mon! How many times did Kirk, in a moment of dramatic tenseness, give an order only for the Enterprise to power down completely? He never slapped the chair angrily, leaped to his feet, and screamed, "Dang that Starfleet! I DEMAND compensation for my wasted time! TRIBBLE IT! I quit!" <stalks off bridge> He didn't. He rolled with the punches and moved on with life. Or, more often, moved on with ending a Klingon's life. But hey! He moved on!
WTH no flames. People agreeing with me. Oh noes! I must have went through a black hole and ended up in some bizarre, backwards universe. Seriously though Im glad there are some sane people on this forum.

It's early. The kids who complain on the forum are still watching their Saturday Morning Hannah Montana.

Who said anything about sane. The fact we are posting on the forums rules out sanity.

Why do you know when Hannah Montana is in TV saturday morning?
Are you one of those kids watching Hannah Montana,but this time u think the episode suck and you went to the forums?
Really? Maybe in other parts of America, but not where I live.
Yea...not to many migrants here either......I was merely commenting on the cross water attitude of americanism in other countries based on popular misconceptions which lose something in the translation to what americans are really like. But emulating said attitude in an attempt to be more recognized as conforming to a medium of misconcieved attitudes brought on by poor news media perception as it pertains to the american way of life in general..........
Make sense?
I never said I wasn't crazy, you just assumed I worked here and I didn't bother to correct you.......you gonna eat that?

I thought that might be the case but I didn't want to assume.

Yep. Sure is, and like you I agree with OP.
Of course you know that Cryptic will fix the accounts.. as for Compensation? ROFLMAO..
Compensation for what?
You want the whole $0.02 per hour in cash or in C-Store points that the server is down? (that is how much 1 hour game time costs you .. $0.02)

Only in America:D
It isn't just in America. There have been Euros saying the same thing.
It's early. The kids who complain on the forum are still watching their Saturday Morning Hannah Montana.
"It will be installed on Tuesday"
AHHAHH +1 for you sir!
Because in america...everyone is welcome.....attitude and all

Nevermind.........I'd hate to come off as creepy
To late, your avatar suggests much.
I would venture to say the problem is, people are real. If we were all imaginary then it would be someone elses fault for imagining all of us.

Sucker

Arrrrr, I like the cut of your jib:cool:
There does seem to be a lot lately.
WHAT!?
She is one of the uglyest persons i ever saw.
U got no taste man,seriously.
Pwnd! :cool:
The smart A**
Just imagine the enriching developments that could take place in space battles with such an opponent?
You would really want to make sure that ship blows up!
Spirit and determination wins battles....not fancy weapons and armor.
The element of chance trumps all else in battle
Even when battle is bad..........it is good!
I wasn't staring at her face............
You really wanna keep this going? I could do this all day......;)
