For Gorn's sake. It is time to upgrade the hamsters. Seriously consider getting some gerbils or at least adding more gerbils to the wheels. Buncha slack-@&&^&.
I imagine this is going to be a Very lengthy Downtime. it's new years day.
They havn't even had time to give us the tribble patch for the winter event, ( which is a cripppling bug, but its fixed on tribble) And everyone is out on break.
Since they are all understandbly out on beer runs right now. I'd say go play something else for now.
I'm going to load up Skyrim and emerse myself in a exploratory environment filled with story line, instead of fuming in the forums or sitting in earth space dock for 10 hours.
I am a lifetime member of this and Champions online and I also spent alot on Zen, However I think after all these issues I may use this time to research a more reliable game.
OK, let me just get the regular whining over with quickly:
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE GAME IS FINISHED, EVERYTHING IS DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I HATE CRAPTIC U SUCK STEALING MY MONEY I PAY U THEREFORE YOU MUST BEND OVER AND GIVE ME EVERYTHING I WANT INSTANTLY I WILL RAGEQUIT FOREVER JUST YOU WATCH!!!!!
i want elhaci drednot wer cn i get elchai drednoht
This is all the fault of the scamboxes! It's all a conspiracy!!! Cryptic wants us to all buy lockboxes because they're greedy moeny-grubbers who are ruled by China and this isn't how Star turok is supposed to be!!!!!
*profanities*
*generic rage*
*outlandish demands
*more rage
There, that should do it. Now we can have some actual optimistic and sensible comments.
Reports of our servers being down are in. We have our team investigating. Sorry for the inconvenience everyone. Web hope to have the hamsters back in the Computer Core post haste! We will update you with an ETA as soon as we can.
Hope you all have a great NYE!

Damn....

Thank you for the time...

Cryptic, would you actulaly like me to spend actual Money? It's Simple:
Full, Story-driven, select from start 1-50 Klingon Side
Scrap current Lock Box & Lobi system for something more reasonable
Expand Dil and Rep/Fleet Marks to regular story content
Ba'al is the worst story villian ever but the fans love him for it. :P
I do try.
Humor is the best way to deal with pessimism. Oh, and Hail Ba'al (tm)!
Smirk, have you considered using miniature giant space hamsters to power the servers instead of regular hamsters? You could get 47% more power out of them, according to my data!
Basically it outlines lizard has begun commercializing their hacking tools and now for 3 dollars they'll DDOS attack whoever you want for 5-20gb of spam traffic
The hacking group that claims it took down the Xbox and PlayStation networks on Christmas can now help you take down any website for the low, low price of $2.99.
Give them a break, guys. This is a hugely complex game, and servers go down from time to time. It's a holiday. They probably have contacts from several teams on call, and no doubt, they've all been activated and are working on fixing the issue now.
If they didn't charge for stuff, there would be no game, and no continuation of Star Trek canon. So get over it, and buy some ships from time to time.
In the meantime, while you wait for the servers to come back up, you could go outside or read a book.

Congratulations on your first post!
Look Smirk, why don't you take the day off? It's New year's eve for goodness sake. Go drink some whiskey and sing Old Lang Syne in Klingon or something. Tkae those hamsters home to meet the missus then feed the poor things some shortbread... anything!
I can't bear the idea of you sitting in front of a screen all alone. Not even an orion to keep you company...
Arc seems to thing everybody is served by east coast servers, or are we? That would explain all the server problems. Of course it hasn't been as bad as when it would go down every Sunday morning.
There's an awful lot of whining going on in this thread.
Who knows what's happened. Hardware could have failed. Problems getting into the co-location if that's where their servers are, and yes, it's a holiday, so people are probably on call.
Go have sex with a significant other or something and remind yourself what real human contact feels like.

Nope, leaving almost no one there over peak play time is tantamount to going on vacation right after releasing an expansion. It's completely foolish.
If you want optimism, we might get something free out of this in consolation. :P
As mentioned earlier, giving most staff the day off during a high usage time is not the best strategy.
Edit, in fairness to Cryptic: thanks for the free Breen carrier! It's a very nice ship and I enjoyed flying it last night.
I do try.

This could be a lengthy downtime indeed
