So this is a rather trivial suggestion, but can we be allowed to set our characters on ground maps and stuff to hold things in our left hand instead of always our right? I realize this doesn't really impact lefties (like myself) since I can just go with the mmo-style thing with the abilities grid (and pressing 1,2, and 3), but I just thought it would be a really nice feature in the game if we could hold things in our left hands.
What do you all think?

Ah, I see what you did there. Real classy XD
But I must ask, why not have lefty characters? Why not?
Surely there's a programmer out there who retired around 2003 or so and would be willing to help update STO's code, could probably get them cheap too, just something to keep them busy in retirement.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
I dunno, It might be fun to play for a while. if it improves the quality of the game for some, then I say go for it.

Freaks, I say!, Freaks!!!!
Really not bothered, don't think its neccessary. I supppose it depends how simple it is to programme into the game.
Clearly left-handed "racism".
@jodarkrider @askray alert for redaction
Left handed people are the ones using their right minds.
I support left handed characters in all games including this one, but i always wanted that in FPS games like Call of Duty.
Data was left handed, so eat that haterz.
Racism? Really? I wasn't aware that lefties suddenly became their own race....
And the reason why you don't see this in most games is simple. A lot of animations would have to be done twice. Or in other words, quite some money/worktime would have to be invested. And that just isn't happening for such a little gain.
For those it really bothers, use dual pistols. Problem solved!
"Racism? Really? I wasn't aware that lefties suddenly became their own race...."
No not their own race, that why i had racism in quotes. Bigotry is the word i should have used.
Somebody need to calm down a bit.
Cleary the comments I made early wasn't taken with the humour indended, thats the problem with the written word, no inflection, like I said it left hand/right hand really isn't important.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

Power to the left handed people, leftist rights, we shall not be subjugated or looked down upon. We will not go quietly into the night!
Some of the greatest people of our time lead with their left, Brent Spiner, James Cromwell, Wil Wheaton, Jerry Seinfeld, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George HW Bush, Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, Matt Groening/Bart Simpson, Paul McCartney, Dan Aykroyd, Michaelangelo, Leonardo DiVinci, Mark Hamill, Jim Henson, Robert De Niro....
But honestly i never noticed nor cared when playing STO. As i said, playing FPS it stands out and does effect me.
You may want to look at that.

I mean, this also isn't at the top of my wish list (T6 Risian Carrier or Science Dreadnought, T6 Orion Slavemaster Battleship as a Dreadnought Carrier or Science Dreadnought, ...) but I think a left handed option would be rather nice to have in character customization.

Dear gods someone kill overly p.c. people like this PLEASE?!!?!

I laughed a lot more than I should have +2 points
Edit: (the ambidextrous option could just choose which hand to use each time a ground weapon is activated for use, or to save on calculations it could choose at the start of the ground instance. Since left handed animations would be added for that, ambidextrous could be made to work)
You might be ambidextrous.
