Hi Captains,

We will be bringing down Star Trek Online in 30 minutes (1:30PM PST/ 4:30PM EST/ 9:30PM GMT) for an emergency restart. We also only expect to be down for 30 minutes. ETA for STO being back up is around 2PM PST/ 5PM EST/ 10 PM GMT.

Thanks for your patience and understanding,

- The Star Trek Online Team

    Ok, the lag still exists and you do an emergency maintenance to change your routing-tables away from Cogent? Or have you found another thing that could explain the lag and try to change that part?
    Or is this emergency maintenance disabling all party-poppers until you've fixed them?

    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    I think this "Emergency" is due to there being innsuficiant levels of doghnuts and the interns have not returned from starbucks yet with the teams coffee.

    I know the stats are kind of bogus for the Kamarag compared to the Ambassador... but I wouldn't call it an emergency. :)

    Agreed. I had to switch instances on ESD 4 times to find one with no damn balloons, so I could actually move and not be locked down :mad:

    Make sure to patch up Tribble while Holodeck is down -- jump in-game on Tribble and head to Drozana. EP Daniel Stahl will be doing a special Anniversary Q&A! :)

    It would be nice to know what the emergency is all about. Or, is it classified because the Dev is on their way to catch a hacker? :cool:

    When it's done for a better comfort for all players, it's cool :) Keep up the good work, Dev.

    Anyone wanna make a bet for a nice amount of EC that Drozana will be full of balloons within minutes and tribble will go down for some emergency patching as well? Hell, Drozana of all places to pick... *rolls eyes*

    Apparently some forum posters have diplomatic immunity nowadays, where can I get mine?

    Most likely, the "emergency" is that the devs did not anticipate the lag that 10,000 balloons on ESD could cause.
