On the BO's make sure you have invested points in the lower level skills. You have to plunk a certain amount into each character before you can promote them, and then once promoted you can pay into the higher skills.
Maybe they should clarify as to what the specific problem is? That way we can understand where they're having a problem....
Research points, I'm guessing your talking about General Research Skill (crafting)? Those increase as you craft stuff. If you meant something else, then sorry, no idea what your talking about.
As for skills, you will never ever be able to max out ALL of the skills, you need to make choices.
But for your bridge officers you should be able to max their 8 skills (4 space and 4 ground).
Once you become Vice-Admiral, all the skill points you would get from missions are converted to bridge officers skill points.
Hope that helped.
if you are talking about skill points... why would they give you enough to max out every single one??? what would be the fun or challenge in that if every single character in the game had basically the same build and skills and abilities then we would just be cookie cutter characters. there is not a mmo out there i am aware of that is worth anything that is just about filling every single box. the challenge is to make your character build and use it to suit your playstyle and abilities as well as whats best for your class.
if you want a single bar that you must fill up then perhaps a console game is the best.
as was said before i can only guess at what you are really asking for help with perhaps if you were specific in your question more specific help can be given. if the questions you asked cryptic were in any way similar to the question you asked here no wonder you got a vague and general response. perhaps you need to work on your own "people skills" a little more
Um, that's by design. Once you hit Lrevel 50 (Vice-Admiral) you will only receive Bridge Officer Skill Points (renamed 'Expertise' once Season 6 goes to the Live server.) As many other posters have told you, it' by design that you will not be able to max out all your skills on a single character; you have to make choices and decide what skills you want to focus on.
They decided to do it this way so that at the end game, there are skill level variations between characters (IE not everyone will have the same Skill setup; and that's why some people post their character builds and analysis of character builds.)
If you want to redo how you spent your skill points, you can go to a Skill Trainer, and use one of the skill respec tokens you got while leveling up (assuming you were Gold); or buy and use a respec token (if you're Silver, or you used all the ones granted to you as you were leveling up.)
PWE ARC Drone says: "Your STO forum community as you have known it is ended...Display names are irrelevant...Any further sense of community is irrelevant...Resistance is futile...You will be assimilated..."
Thats cause you do NOT receive any more skill points after you hit level 50.
You get a total of 366k skill points to assign to the various skills. Part of the game is knowing how many points to put in which skills to create a viable and useful character.
If you want general research points, go to memory alpha.
Erm - like talk to the NPC's and follow the tutorial on crafting...
If you are unable to do this - then I don't think anyone else can help you.
If not, well go to www.stowiki.org
That is a very basic question you are asking, If we need to start explaining basic gaming terminology it might become a very very long thread.
Go to http://www.stowiki.org/, Every answer about the game Star Trek Online can be found there.
Use their search engine.
P.S. What have you been doing for hours on Memory Alpha?

As has already been posted, go to www.stowiki.org and READ IT. Also, calming down would probably help.
You are a vice admiral ? you learn how to craft way earlier
