    If you click here, you will find a post by the EP, explaining where you can now locate the various data samples within STO, as it was all changed after the season 3 update.

    I'm posting this here, not only because it will make it easier for me to find it when I need it, but also for all of you to use as you see fit.

    Funny thing is that dstahls list is not entirely accurate. :D

    Thanks. I put that on the list. This chart on STO Academy has been updated as well.

    Care to enlighten us?

    sure:

    T'Ong Nebula: Mk II and Mk IV samples
    D'kel Star Cluster: Mk IV and mk VI samples
    Eridon Nebula: Mk VI and Mk VIII samples
    Azlesa Expanse: Mk VIII and Mk X samples
    Azlesa Expanse (Elite): Mk XI samples

    Haven't been able to assess all fed nebulas yet (to be precise just have been in delta volanis).

    Another thing that makes klingon data gathering a tad more difficult is that there are far more players allowed in each cluster before a new instance get opened, fed clusters don't allow more than five players in one instance while I've seen up to eighteen concurrent players in a klingon nebula (I assume that it allows up to 25 players in a klingon cluster same as 'normal' sectors).

    Thanks for the support.:) I have sent messages to a couple of Mods and Devs but have not gotten a reply, although I can only imagine the PM volume they get.

    I have added Keybinds for Dummies by tranceaddict to the list under "User Interface."

    I think we may need to take this to the main Star Trek Online forum and post a thread requesting the old sticky to be removed and a new one put up. I sent a PM to StormShade as well but it obviously had no more success than yours did.

    The fact is we need an active player to have a stickied thread here because this forum doesn't get enough attention on its own. With someone capable of editing the main post more stuff can be added than will ever be stickied by the devs.

    Anyway if you start a request thread, I will voice my support, as I am sure many others will.

    I don't want to make posts on multiple forums for the same thing. I think my best bet is to try to keep this thread on page one of this forum and keep the info fresh and up to date. I appreciate your support. :)

    Is there a guide to suggested away team BO powers organized by officer type? I've found a few ground combat guides but haven't run across any "a sci medic should have these abilities ___________, a tac BO works best with ___________"

    Sorry for the delay. Holidays and all. ;)
    Not sure if I understand the question correctly, but BOs can only have the powers related to their type. For instance, the game will not let you assign Torpedo, High Yield I to a Science BO. The STO Wiki might have a list of all the powers (at work now, so cannot really check), or ingame, you can go to the Bridge Officer Trainer for a complete list of skills that you can filter by officer type.

    Also (unrelated to the question), added a new link to the Foundry section (list of Foundry Missions). Keep in mind that these are only accessible through Tribble right now.

    I assume you meant the listing in "User Interface", I have now fixed that.:o If you meant something else, let me know. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Thanks for the sticky and the recommendations. Now I will really have to keep this up to date. :)

    Would this qualify for the index? Or should someone less lazy then me copy the contents to the various STO Wikis? (Which one is the most up-to-date? Just asking in case I am feeling non-lazy sometime): http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=185099

    Your one website for the Federation Races and Traits Comparison looks like it has been assimilated by spam:

    http://www.stotricorder.com/wiki/Federation_Races_and_Traits_Comparison

    Tankless Water Heaters, Adjustable Beds, Cheap Digital Cameras...

    Tried following some of the links, but the following three:
    •Fleet Administration: Help & Support
    •What Character Should You Play?
    •Things I Wish I Knew...

    All lead to the same place. Think you forgot to close a link.

    "Ask Cryptic" link updated.

    If you have a thread or link to anything that is useful to playing/learning the game, please let me know. I don't know how the updated Forum Rules will affect threads such as this and the ones listed here, particularly the rule about deleting threads that have not been posted to in thirty days or more. Hopefully this will not affect information threads too much.

    Just make sure you keep it updated and posted in within 30 days of the last post: http://forums.startrekonline.com/showpost.php?p=3474765&postcount=191 (Stormshade's post). I don't know if that means you have to update the OP every 30 days, or just post in the thread every 30 days.

    Thanks for the info. I take it to mean that you must update the OP and then you can make a post stating what was updated;
    If you're keeping a "living thread" on the forums. This rule means that every 30 days you need to update that thread if no other conversation is happening on the subject. You can do this by simply updating the OP, and then creating a post that says, "I've updated the OP with the most recent information on this topic."

    So pretty much what I did (updated a link and posted the update) seems to fall within the guidelines. Hopefully, all the associated threads will keep up to date as well.

    Yeah, but what if the info hasn't changed? I mean, if someone had posted a guide to the weapon procs at launch, what is there to update?

    If they have good info, it might be up to the community to keep the threads compliant by dropping a "good info" or something. This would have to be not in a "spammy" way, in other words, not the same person saying "good info" over and over if you know what I mean. Other than that, I don't know.
