There used to be this guy over on the old Armada II FileFront forums named 'jetnova16'. OP reminds me of him. Only thing missing is the part where he threatens all of us with his lawyer and then posts pretending to be a lawyer.
As part of the over 50 crowd, I can speak with some authority on the importance of fiber and the bad things which can occur when there is lack of it.
Curiously, the end result of a lack of fiber and the OP's posts bear a quite remarkable resemblance in appearance, composition, and smell. They also strongly resemble each other in how people generally react to the presence of both.
A six year old boy and his starship. Living the dream.
- She culled through the responses and reported them to the powers that be who responded by at least allowing those who had previously earned the Risian ships in past would be able to claim them again.
- People who didn't like the change ultimately were asking for it to be changed back. That they didn't get the answer they wanted is not her fault.
- When the thread continued to degrade from posters refusing to let it go and turned into a sniping fest she closed it down to prevent further flaming.
THAT is the truth.
Oh, and one more bit for the record: posting a new thread about a closed one is a forum rules no no and not lot likely to earn you any points OP. I suggest you do the mature thing and let it go.
This is spot on Steampunker, everything was followed in a very proffessional way, the only i'd like to add for the op is there any instance when trendy has not been on the players side? It is very wrong for you to speak of her in this manner,you should be the bigger guy and beg for forgiveness.
Yes, this thread is breaking the forum rules. And every person who has insulted the OP in this thread has also broken the forum rules. I'm looking forward to Monday when Trendy gets back.
This is embarrasing, for the OP, but more importantly the community as a whole.
pwlaughingtrendy has done an excellent job as a community manager, she's sifted through 1000+ posts of complaints, hate-posts, and the few actual constructive suggestions and brought them to the developers as per her job, and for all this trouble a compromise** was reached. While I concede it wasn't what everyone wanted, it is actually most generous in the long run as it effects not only past events but future events too.
While I am still unhappy that new players and those who missed previous events will miss out on the 'vette and cruiser, I will gladly accept the compromse as the Cryptic Devs didn't even have to do that much...

just spent a bunch of leftover pearls on tech upgrades and wondering if that option will still be there during the event with the new currency they replace the pearls with , not much interested in event ships , my bank has still got loads of event ships in it , doubt ill ever open them while I have pilot ships an intel ships to play with , but I wouldn't mind being able to get more tech upgrades .
yeah i don't use those silly ships either i hope they keep a way for us to trade things that are actually useful. i had a bunch of pearls and with trade in i got 150 crylon and salvaged tech for my main toon. and my alts got a good share as well. all transferred to my main .
Trophies for killing FEDS ahh those were the days.
The OP is ranting about Trendy, who has already proven herself a much better CM than Smirk ever was, and who has been fair and consistent with her application of the forum rules, if I have to take a punishment for insulting the OP then I will do so gladly as I know the OP will be punished right next to me, just as he deserves.
Besides the whole thing with the OP acting like he doesn't know if Trendy is male or female is obvious trolling, everyone knows Trendy is female, unless this is the first week they have played, in which case they don't have any of the event ships at all and no pearls either.
I agree, Trendy is a great CM and person in general. However, "he did it first" is not a valid excuse for doing something wrong. But hey, maybe Trendy will give it a pass since it was in her defense. I guess we'll see.

I'm not. Why? Because every video game forum has people that act badly. This forum is no different or worse than any other, and I am not embarrassed by the actions of other people who have nothing to do with me. I wish they wouldn't do it, but I'm not "embarrassed" by them because they do not represent me in any way.

A very enlightened point of view, I also take no responsibility for others, though I still feel somewhat... disappointed in the STO community over making such a whiny mess over this.
Also, I'm somewhat embarrassed to be associated with such a mob of whiny gamers... Is no one here an 'honorable' gamer?
Fully expecting it, but the truth must me told. You are obviously younger and less mature as you don't care about truth.
"less mature..." - Says the person going off about a minor change in a video game.
