    you do know some people actually spend money on this game, don't you? Work faster please.

    I was undecided whether to spend real money on this game or not. These last four server crashes helped me to make a decision on the subject...

    Those people, like me, also know that the game is susceptible at any given time to go down, with or without reason.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    I'm guessing that the grand fix on the 4th didn't end up helping the situation?

    Pfft, fair enough. Although I can't exactly show up when nepht destroys the servers like this. Let's be honest here, we all know it's her. I mean she's an evil mummy. Evil mummies do things like destroy servers.

    I would expect nothing less from the illegitimate love child of Mumm ra and Wilykit.

    If it was still a PTP game, I would agree. However since it's a FTP game, I don't see the point in giving everyone a free item when not everyone supports them (Money wise).

    in the past month i'v payed cryptic over 250 dollars, and I'm F2P.. Please dont accuse me of not supporting cryptic or STO simply because i dont subscribe.

    Logic tells me that evil Neverwinter is to blame. Please Cryptic maroon Neverwinter on Ceti Alpha VI where it belongs. Actually maybe thats a bad idea since it may avenge itself on us later. :D

    Severe lag, rubber banding and server crashes due to being overloaded with more than one game. What's next? Run all games and sites on one server and expect us to thank you? Stop being cheap and buy some new servers. You make more than enough money.

    This is why i decided to take a break from the game till the 21st, this happens probably more frequently with legacy of romulus coming and Neverwinter just arriving.

    On a lighter note i'm developing a PVE idea to pitch to Cryptic for a que event.

    I call it "Volley of Thunder" inspired in part by DS9

    Its a fact, that STO and Neverwinter use the same Login- and Account-Server. Its simply cheaper for Cryptic.

    Give them a break? In the words of Rowan Atkinson "You can have the day of when you die, not before!"

    Seriously, we'll give them a break when they get their sh*t wired. ;)

    This.

    For those of us who are subscribers, things like these outages are annoying at the very least.

    Yes, nothings perfect. TRIBBLE breaks.

    But when the issue resides in a departments inability to maintain a proper framework for its venture, then there's a problem.

    For those saying "stop crying" or "get over it" or "don't be an entitled baby"...i have this to say.

    I'm PAYING for this service. Your damn right i'm entitled. Have you ever gone into a company and pay for a service and recieve lacking customer service and/or products? Do you then say to yourself "i shouldn't worry about it" or "im such a crybaby"? No, you complain, you demand your moneys worth, and if you do not get satisfaction, you do the thing that said company's dread....you deny them return business. in cases like this, companies publishing mmo's, they RELY on that on to survive. No return business, no profit = closed doors...and they would have nobody to blame but themselves.

    *end sermon*

    You are being quite nice to Brandon. Hoping for a closed beta invite?!?!!?

    No, but he did have the courtesy to keep us up to date. You only enjoy a game, which is good, but it's no game for the guys who have to keep all this running for our amusement. Maybe you'd like to trade places?

    Alot of people say things they can't back up. Normally they get away with it, until they meet someone like me who knows exactly what he's saying and how to deal with trolls like you.

    #1- It's not a rant but a discussion thread to raise awareness on detrimental practices and find solutions while we are all waiting for servers to get back up.

    #2- By your words I can tell a thousand miles away you are aggressive and talking without knowing the subject you are talking about. Proof: I never mentioned anything about buuilding starbases in my original post, so you totally spun that out of thin air to make yourself look like a know-all, but phony. Even I don't use those tricks, which I consider to be for the stupid.

    #3- I've given you no cause for acting aggressive, aside from engaging in a discussion about solving real issues that are problematic in the fleet section - Not my fleet. That you choose to respond with a snide remark like asking derogatively the name of my fleet to add to your black list. If you even have the intelligence to read this far, that attitude of response only displays your lack of tolerance for discussing issues you don't agree with calmly.

    Hey, you wanted to pick on someone, you got what you asked for. :cool:
