Just a thought, to those who actually pay for subscriptions, do you get any compensation wwhen servers go down unexpectedly?
HMWAHAHAHAHA!....
Wait... you were serious?
Beta, LTA, CE, Multiple preorder Versions, all Addon Packs except AoY, nearly all KDF/Rom and ~50% of all Fedships, over 25 LockboxShips, Endurer of Atari's "Year of Hell", but...
It seems that Tribbles have gotten into the network hardware at our data center, and all Cryptic games and services are affected. We have Engineers on site who are working to.. well... remove the Tribbles Thanks for your patience.
Cheers,

So, are there any plans to separate the STO, Neverwinter, and Champions Online data centers into their own, non-shared clusters with one itsy bitsy chat server to link all three?
I plan on going back to Gold when LoR goes gold (for the bank, costume, and respec tokens while I level my Romulan), and on top of that just the past three weeks I've spent $70+ on STO -- more then I've spent on any other game in the past three years, including sub fees, COMBINED. So, if I might be considered an "average customer" and the majority of the games population is made of "average customer", that's gotta stack up to major $$$. Mo' money for new hardware...
Or is PWE simply gobbling up all the revenue, throwin' peanuts at ya, and saying "deal with it"?
On a different note, yesterday, I spent WAY TOO MUCH TIME going through the Romulan tutorial (great job, even with the moderately annoying bugs), and today was going to try and finish knocking out the Klingon tutorial (which I'm happy to say is better then I expected over the old one) & start the Fedrat tutorial. Overall, I'm fairly impressed, but have the feeling Warbirds are going to get hit with the nerf club again either by giving them an even higher power drain (-10 per is just laughable) and/or reduce their hull by 25-50%.
Anyway, here's hoping this gets fixed in a timely fashion. Keep up the fight!

It is my right to be a unsatisfied customer and voice my displeasure in the manner I see fit. It's basically a constitutional right.
Actually the US constitution states that, as a customer, you are not legally entitled to butt-hurtitis. That can land you in jail and/or $10,000 in fines.

On the plus side, given that MMOs (especially Perfectworld ones) are all pay-to-win instead of the old subscription model, every second the games are down costs them more money than us.
In the old days of monthly sub MMOs, there was righteous anger because money had been paid without a service being rendered. Only the players were really suffering directly, the games lost out in a secondary sense through people leaving due to the bad service, but lost nothing substantial in a direct sense from the intermitten downtime.
That's not true for microtransaction MMOs. They'll get stuff back online asap so people can resume throwing free money at the shareholders, or they'll be serious consequences.
Got kicked after only about 30 mins of testing time on tribble. Havent been able to get on for something like 45 mins. Wont connet to login/account server most of the time, every once in awhile I get to character screen but then the game disconnects again.
wow craptic...I would say that you learned your lesson...over 7 seasons (actually 6)....and messing those launches too...with server downtime and crashes.

You are only referring to actions or words that can threaten national security in a direct way. I hardly call ******** about an mmo in that category.
Uhura:captain i just got a response from starfleet. they finally got the sto servers back online
Kirk: what ...they got it online...it only took them 500 yrs.
Scotty: ack captain i told ya i could it in 2 minutes
Kirk: yes i know but starfleet said pwe told them there hamsters were better then you
Scotty: well now they know they were wrong
naieve thinking of me to believe buying ZEN would contribute to the game the bugsolving and stability. I now get the feeling my money is not spend at that at all ...

Cannot compute...common sense factor too high...initiating auto destruct sequence...10...9...
Cool story... and it's our right to point and laugh at your impotent nerd rage
YOUR using java script to do a online game ...dangerous.....

Hehey, I wasn't teh only one...:P
Funny how every time you get that, the site works perfectly and the game is unresponsive...?
Both Tribble and Holodeck is down and launcher can't connect to server...
Guess too many playing and all the servers got overloaded...
What does god need with an MMO?
WTF!? lol. Omg, it's like the creepy log lady from Twin peaks is coming back as a Kirk! OMGZ!
Kirk: what ...they got it online...it only took them 500 yrs.
