LTS member, stuck waiting in the queue as well, however I am not complaining, just explaining.
1. There is a new Expansion out.
2. It is a US Holiday weekend.
This means that everyone should expect a much higher than usual load on the servers, log in times, lag, etc. because there are going to be thousands of more players trying to all get into the system because of 1 & 2 above.
This also means that issues that normally wouldn't happen with the fewer log ins are manifesting themselves, and the techs are having to deal with them frequently. (the down times and ER maintenance).
A royal PITA, yes, but most certainly not unexpected.
Comparing crytic to Stalin? That's a tad over the top.
I guess you missed the post from the player who bought the romulan pack, didn't get the romulan pack, disputed the transaction with PayPal and was banned by PW for it.
No, I don't think comparing them to Stalin so far fetched at all.

That's because as far as they know the charge was disputed because the paypal, credit card, what have you that used to buy it was stolen, and the rightful owner disputed. Its also something that can get fixed, might require some proving who they are, and some work, but its that or they potentially let someone use their game to run rampant with someone elses bank account.

Riiight When PWE starts mass murdering it's player base, than you can compare, till then pick up a book and read up on the guy, and how censoring a privately own forum is not the same at all.
Considering that a lot of the posts in the forums lately has been harsh attacks on Cryptic, the devs, threats against them with respect to lawsuits, or that they should essentially commit suicide, and such, I can understand them removing such threads. The Forums truly show the WORST in people.

Except it's advertised as a feature to have priority login for gold and lts members. Not abiding by that is a breach of consumer laws due to false advertising. Whether it's the right thing to do to put f2p players second is another matter entirely.
From what I can see on the LTS section, haven't checked the "Features Matrix" yet. But I think they may have removed that feature as it's not advertised there.

i'd ban that idiot also. i'd ban them so bad they couldn't play any of my games on any server anywhere.
also its pretty super cool awesome to only listen to one side of the story isn't it. you have no idea if this ANON idiot is even telling the truth.
I'm up to about 946 (Golden) days subbed so far (I started back in Jan. 2010 but I took a few months off for another game).
It takes me about 30 seconds to log in.
We did have a short queue today due to so many players logging in to play, but players were getting in fairly quickly. Gold members (LTS and subs) have Priority Login, so while you were in a queue, you were placed in the front. :eek:
That's been an issue since the launch last week. I'm a lifer and not supposed to have a queue, but we get stuck too. Usually it doesn't last long enough to even read the numbers. Not sure if I'm getting priority login or not. But if you had a significant enough of a wait to write a forum post, it could be a ploy by PWE to get you to pony up some cash.
wait... what? emergency maintenance due to lag... all get offline,.. maintenance canceled, as they say latency is better now (yeah sure because all logged off)

ok first of all this is the wrong forum for this
second of all who gives a *bleep* if your a lifer or not , i filped out when i saw this queue
im not a lifer IMO lifetime sub is just a race a boff a ship or to all for 300$ (alot)
if you have to wait suck it up and wait , im sick of comments like *IM A LIFER I WAISTED 300 BUCKS I WANT TO BE FIRST IM THE RULER OF THE WORLD BLAH BLAH BLAH*
okay this is really getting old , this que BS is for beta TRIBBLE , STO IS NOT BETA , so pwi get your TRIBBLE together stop being so cheap and buy another server. i regret spending money on the game now seeing how poorly PWI is managing the game , and to even think at one point i was even considering getting a life time member ship , well seeing how things have been since the new stuff came out , i don't think so. ill go and give my money to a company that isn't having multiple issues every single freaking week.

good day captains
Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.
Okay I log off.
Dear Captains we have decided that the proposed maintenance wasn't really worth the effort for out technical staff.
Log back in.
You are now queued as 2436 of 2468 resistance is futile.:D

Of all the maintenance to cancel, this was not the one apparently.
