    You guys have got to stop feeding the server hamsters, Cheetos. You know it makes them constipated. Ever seen 3,000 constipated hamsters? The horror, the horror.......:(

    Yeah... we need to give them coffee instead...

    TacoFang likes to take the hamsters out of their wheel, when He thinks nobody is looking.

    He takes them to the park so they can play with the stray kitty's.

    I guess spending hours creating starships out of random parts isn't fun for some people. :)

    Nono, that was the fun part. Having a colossal battleship being blown to bits by smaller stuff makes no sense.

    True enough. Like how a Unimatrix is blown to bits by a tiny jem hadar bug ship. :P

    Think you all can fix cloaking during this emergency maintenance? No? Too much to ask, as usual? Can you say lame Cryptic?

    I seem to have run into a bit of trouble, when I click on the icon for STO, I get an error that says "The Item I selected is unavailable".

    EDIT: Oh well. I put in a new shortcut. It was a strange thing to happen, though.

    I got a wierd message like that too. Something like "This item is no longer available or has been moved." I thought my laptop was just being dumb.

    Hi Captains,

    We will be bringing down Star Trek Online in 15 minutes for emergency maintenance -- we expect this maintenance to only last for 1 hour. The test server may also be unavailable during this time.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding,

    - The Star Trek Online Team


    UPDATE (7:08PM PDT): We're extending maintenance by 45 minutes. New ETA is 8PM PDT.

    why am I not surprised that the maintanence is extended? its after all Cryptic. Can they ever get the time right?

    Activities in which to engage while waiting for your electronic life stream to reume: Take a breath, windex your nose prints off your monitor, hose the drool out of your keyboards, say hi to your wife/kids/parents/cat or dog, go make nachos, quick shower and change out of your old sweats into new ones captain, clip your fingernails as they are cutting through the keys on your keyboard, do a slow swivel in your chair to make sure you remember where you are! DO NOT however under any circumstances obtain a life durring this brief and painless emergency maintenance!! All other games if they exist are substandard to this one.. Oh and unless you are under 10, please stop whining/whinging. Read the EULA I'm sure there is one .. and I am sure it states that you agree to use this software "AS PROVIDED" in at least one spot. I am sure that you agreed to this "Agreeable Agreement.. because here you are complaining about what you agreed to... Anyway Hope some of the above suggestions were helpful.. See you ingame friends!:P

    You know that 2 day 10 hour timer you got on the launcher? Can you release the blog for that so we have something to read while we wait?

    For those with the launcher not doing anything problem- recreate a desktop shortcut from the Star Trek Online.exe file in your cryptic games folder. :3
