some useful information for cryptic:
every minute wasted in queue by the player could be profitable to u... more people are w8ting in queue more u loose money...
e.x. if every 23715 player will spent at least 5$ in game... thats ur 118575$ of loss, plus silver players who wants to buy lifetime subscribe , do u think they will spend their savings to the game when they are stuck in queue like this? 50% wont... so if 1/10 of in queue players are silver and want to buy lifetime membership, thats 2371.5 players and half of them will reconsider buying membership status thats ur 237150$ so estimated loss right now is about 355725$ ... thats about in few hours that started queue... so please upgrade ur servers/hardware for ur sake and for our too )
GREAT SPIRIT OF THE UNIVERSE???? HEATHEN!!!! I pray to the Great Bird of the Galaxy.
It's a fast-moving thread, so I understand your missing my post that if this is the way it's going to be, I'm abandoning my Rommie toon in favor of a more established character. So, no Great Birds for me...
8 hours ago I could lo in with no problem, now its 23k in people waiting....
And i not a veteran. The people you just paid for the legacy pack should at least get in first
yesterday it took almost 3 hours to log in at around 8000.. plus if i switch chars i gotta wait again..
this is ridiculous.. you guys had plenty of time to add an extra login server..
you should have known this would be this busy.
plus i think im considered gold.. my extra char was "unrestricted"

The problem is that people in-game are already avoiding at all cost to disconnect to avoid the queue. Just read some comentaries about this on this forum. This is also incresing the queue size.
I agree we should have some time to get back on disconnection, but I would make a more complex suggestion:
1. Give a 2 minute time on disconnection before throwing back on queue.
2. Make the queue BEFORE you connected to your character roster: let people change characters if they want. Is very annoying to change a character and be surprised by a new queue.
3. Limit the amount of time players have to the game at every log on. I.E.: After 2 hours you will get disconnected. (2 hours is just an example).
What happened? I like the changes but the queue is crazy. Yesterday it took 2 hours to log on, today its 16,000 of 22,000. I have been playing for several months and never ran into a queue, cant wait 2 or 3 hours for one character and then wait another 2 or 3 hours for another. Did they shut down a server, give priority to gold and silver members, what?
Awesome, spent two hours in the queue, made it up to around 670ish out 21000. Then timed out connecting to gameserver. Back in queue
I hate you so ****ing much right now, STO. Not having adequate servers because the playerbase will eventually even back out is a pretty defeatist ****ing attitude. One could theorize that the playerbase goes back down because potential new players think the server problems are commonplace, and then they never login again.
"We are aware there is a queue to log in at this time. We are working to get you in-game as soon as possible." Go **** yourself
I let my monthly sub run out while i considered a lfetime but hell with the queue i may reconsider completly
read what is being put if you are a lifetimer you will go straight to the front that is why every now and then you see your numbers go up instead of down

Even if i want to switch characters i go back to the login queue. This makes the Game unplayable for me. I was really happy when Cryptic finally introduced a "switch character" option after 2 years, and now this.
This is just ridiculous. Queues keep getting longer and longer. People - Gold and Silver alike - spend enough money on this game. If people are not able to play you annoy them. This does not entice people to upgrade their accounts. Get some extra servers in your farm already...
Just want to say somethign else; probally no one reading my post anyways before i go play half life;
I was 20 something K in line.. FTP I'm afraid.. point is.. I've been going up up up not down down down that means LTS and Golds and all that are trying to get on.. not even enough for them to play the game.. they (who ever owns this game; cryptic, perfect world or what ever.. have a problem.
welcome to mmo gaming
maybe Im wrong but I bet the biggest complainers here don't even give PWE a penny
Im not a premium suber but I think they are the ones that should be pissed off.
Wohoo, your queue position is 24682 out of 24784. Ok, 10mins of tv and back to see the progress... 23870 out of 24254.
I guess my DOF's didnt wanna work overnight.

Cryptic or whoever, get more servers or something...
:P

Why, are you logging on with two character simultaneously at the same position in the Queue?
Unless of course you launch and play several STO's on one machine? In which case the results are the same. Nature of the beast.
Currently 5991 out of 24443.
By the time i have to leave, i can probably play :S

Its probably what they want you to do.
