    You're joking, right?

    Wait. You ARE joking, right?


    Pfft..."back up server". Next you'll be telling us the ship should have a crew and only Wesley can save us.

    I was joking just a little bit..not really though LOL..I'm a dreamer..;)

    Isn't there a backup server that could server as a fail over? After all, this is a PRODUCTION commercial server, and one would think it should have a BACKUP. If one of my production servers went down like this (and it seems to be often), I'd be FIRED on the spot. All I can say is wow.....

    Clearly you don't know.

    (A) STO is run from a home server (probably an average desktop running a 4 year old AMD CPU) obviously.

    (B) If PWE/Cryptic actually cared about their players, they'd be running a proper server with backups.

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    Now see? There's your problem!

    For shame. Thinking we had any Server Stability at all, and then believing those Server Stability updates are for server stability. What's wrong with you, man? :D

    Like roach spray isn't used to bring roaches in...

    Goodnight from Holland! I'll be staying online for a while, having too much fun with all the posts here :D:cool:.

    Me too.

    At least STO comunity is a funny group (always there people that no are). In others games the comentary under this conditions aren't so funny as we can read here.

    I think that Cryptic's crew are now as mads, I sorry for them. Good Nigth to everybody and good luck to STO's crew, it's will be a long day for them. That sometimes happen.

    P.D.: I hope see as events take at least a day more to correct this "unable" day.



    Thanks to everybody for the fun, and thanks to Cryptic people for their works.

    Thank you, old alternative future reality Spock. Now the next question - did they defeat this issue, and if so, how? :)

    Well yes if they didn't we wouldn't be here :D.

    It took about 3 days to get *everyone* back and about 2 days to get things working.

    Remember the weekend is probably when they have only a skeleton crew on-hand.

    Could and should be quicker this time if it's the same issue. From what I saw at the start of the thread with the tracert logs it looks the same. :o

    Just bring up that old Windows 'traveling through space' screen saver and make a paper cutout of your ship and tape it to the screen. Just like STO!

    You know... for the memory leak.

    I see from this post that the Dev's are posting on twitter ... why not the forums? Or have I just been unable to find Dev forum posts?

    Its a good question.
    I noticed a trend in the last few years, where the devs post their information of various social media before they post it on their own sites, and even then they dont always post it on their own sites.

    Its a rather disturbing development in my opinion.
    Not everyone frequent these social medias, and many dont want anything to do with them either.
    It makes me wonder if people who dont frequent these sites are considered second rate or something.

    This is not the norm. The only time this tends to happen is when a new season launches, which is not for another 4 weeks.

    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Hey, it's been worse. This usualy happens once a month, average. But it can get out of hand. last time it crashed three times in one day, people started really going nuts.
    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!
