    The very fact that Twitter side of STO itself is silent makes me think all hands are scrambling to repair whatever issue that seems to be potentially serious. To the point they don't want anyone to know.

    But that's just my Romulan side within me getting nervous.

    Obviously they aren't making enough money charging people 25 dollars per ship to pay someone 10 bucks an hour to monitor the game over night.

    Time for Dstal to take a 2nd leave of absence for the a year.

    I mean I have 2 guys drop from the que system and then I warp out and get a 1 hour ban so I watch Pawn Stars for a hour come back and the servers down.

    I feel sorry for the people with monthly gold accounts.

    Listen to "Don't Worry, Be Happy". If you think that this is bad, try being a mod for the 3 PWE games all having maintenance at the same time....one for a major expansion...

    That'll be enough to make you drink....

    About 40 pages of various QQ and responses. Nothing else beside that.

    My husband is an IT guy. He watches multiple servers. If the server goes down he gets an alarm on his phone that wakes him up and instant emails on what is going on. He can fix it from our bedroom in usually 20 minutes. On a few rare occasions, it's taken him hours, but that's what happens when some IT wannabe jacks up your programming and gives you the "What? I didn't do nothing!" story. You kind of have to chase it down yourself.

    Yes, it's possible.

    FYI, you're letting a jock kick your butt in IT, guys.

    I tried telling them that Bioware does that here where I live.. but appearantly (Ive been told) that this is some sort of hard-to-get space age tech that only a super Dev like Bioware can afford or understand. I replied that Shoppers Drug Mart uses it too. Im still awaiting a reply on that.

    ACTUALLY, IT IS WORSE THAN THAT.

    I am obviously the first person to notice what is wrong.

    To find out follow these steps:

    1. Go to your Star Trek Online folders.

    2. Open the Star Trek Online folder.

    3. Open the Live folder.

    4. Open the Local Data Folder.

    5. Guess what is missing.

    *Hint: It has something to do with why we can't get any of our characters.*

    *Bigger Hint: Go to here and see what it says: http://sto.perfectworld.com/community/tribble-test *


    *Tip instead of Hint: In the Local Data Folder all of the local game files except the one are missing.*

    *Helping Tip: Try using the live server now all it will do is freeze and not do anything, except show logging in or whatever.*

    PWE should write a book and make this a chapter in it called "how to alienate your players". Would be nice to get a response from them, it's been a few hours already.

    Personally I think the "After 5 o'clock" tech got a prank phone call and the person told him that pressing Alt+F4 will make him a hero to the entire company. :P

    I've never had so many disconnect issues before the new Romulan launch...I love this game and am willing to put more money in, but it's discouraging when I can't even play it due to constant lags and numerous disconnects per day.
