Just wondering do we as players set our sights too high that we expect the impossible and bemoan when it isnt provided .
Is cryptic and in general any mmo producer in an automatic loose situation that no matter what is provided we will pick faults and complain.
Is what we asking impossible to provide and if it is why do we keep asking it.
TBH, Cryptic DID nearly take on a almost impossible Fandom.
First, there's the Star Trek fans, which even to themselves have three classifications; Casual, Trekkie, and Trekker.
All of which have a fairly high percentage of Fan Dumb people (READ the trope before commenting, please).
Then, you have MMO fans, who have a roughly equal porportion of Fan Dumb, as well.
You see TONS of both on these Forums, as both groups tend to be very outspoken - as any heathy fandom should be - just without the obsessive, Dumb part

You evil evil man... do you know how long it took me to breaking Trope Addiction?
Yes and no. Trek means many things to many people. To me it's more Starfleet Battles and Captain Kirk (of course I'm old) to others it means diplomacy or fighting as an Honorable Klingon Warrior. No way is the correct one it's all Trek. I am learning that we all should be more flexable myself included.
Trek is a bit too broad, which I like. The small world we live on now isn't one homogenous mass of culture so there's no reason to expect the galaxy to be, regardless of what Gene or anybody wanted. In this way though some people prefer to think of Klingons like honorable Russian space vikings and others like scum of the universe. The list goes on and on but almost whatever choise they make they'll really anger at least a few fans, and as for ship interiors and diplomacy? Well they'd better do them really well.
People will whine and complain over anything, simply because they want to whine and complain. It's a game. Whoever gets noticed the most over their whining, wins. Or something like that.
