For as long as i can remember i been playing STO not once Have i seen a Discovery Recruitment. There's been the Delta event, KDF Event, Gamma Event and Temporal Event for KDF, Jem'hadar, Romulan, TOS Federation,and Federation 24c but i seen nothing for Discovery Era. How come? why do all the others get the events but not Discovery? shouldn't it have its own Discovery Event. it deserves to have one.

I don't think I've ever seen a standard 24c Federation Recruit event before; I have been witness to at least 2 KDF Recruit events, though.
I don't think I've ever seen a "Temporal Recruit" event for KDF, Romulans and Jem'Hadar before...unless you're talking about the Delta Recruit Event (which is for basic Fed, KDF, and Rom).
I just mean all the other series get a event but Discovery Doesn't get one. it just seems unfair that all the other series get goods and gear and discovery doesn't get that.
Ehm, a lot of event stuff and content that was released over the last years is actually based on Discovery. All the Mycelial stuff like that one space set, traits like those from the Hernandez, the latest Torchbearer ground set...
Disco also has its own faction, which most other series didn't get.
What if I happen to enjoy some of the Discovery content? Does this somehow make me less of a Star Trek fan than someone else? Thank God for gatekeepers! Without people like them, the rest of us would have to think for ourselves about what we did and did not like.
Very tired of your OCD need to constantly, publicly and needless efforts to remind the rest of us how much you dislike Discovery. We heard you the first time. We definitely heard you by the tenth or eleventh time. News flash: most of us were over you and moved on years ago.
Star Trek is a big enough tent to include plenty of people.
Even very unpleasant, overly opinionated people like you. And isn't that a damned shame?

IMO there is a Trek for Everyone.

We already have some 32nd century phasers too. I quite like them, the hand pistols look futuristic but not too strange - it's still recognisable as a phaser. Whoever designed it, did a great job at reimagining the hand-held phaser for the future.
We've literally just had this conversation in another thread. Yes it deserves to have one, but it will take up alot of development time to develop an encompassing story, because it's going to be another 'time travel', and program in objectives for them. This is a case of wait and see.
They could adapt something about finding Columbia in the Gamma Quadrant. I think other than the Destiny novels, the most commonly depicted fate of the NX-02 was MIA until she was discovered crashed on a planet in the Gamma Quadrant, I wanna say during the Dominion War.

A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

Discovery aren't the only ones, Romulan Recruitment is constantly being asked for as well, since Delta recruitment isn't exclusive to them,
What would a Discovery Recruitment need at least narratively, J'Ula was the villain of Discovery faction but there's no need for it since she's now a "good guy", Klingon recruitment covers some of J'Ula and is a bit Mo'Kai based, Discovery faction is also Temporal themed but Temporal recruitment dealt with Na'Kulh threats, just take different aspects from both Temporal recruitment and Klingon recruitment, and then add unique Discovery rewards like Kelpian Boffs or Discovery Saurian Boffs.
Would be cool to fight him in the Prime Universe, unfortunately Krall looks like a Discovery Klingon, there's nothing unique about him now.
Narratively a hypothetical DSC recruitment already has everything it needs, all that would be needed is to link it into Delta Recruitment via the usual "future self" cutscene. Mechanically it would probably be simple too, since it appears to share most of the 2409 tutorial (along with a handy snippet from AoY) structure on the back end.
Krall might not even exist in prime, in Beyond his backstory had a completely Kelvin universe style that would not sit well with what is known of Prime. That situation was probably a retrograde quantum ripple from the timeline split.
On the other hand, if they actually do use transwarp instead of regular warp in the Kelvin timeline the way the travel times and visuals imply, then Krall could be just beyond the Federation border in the current prime timeline.
Well... the issue is that the actual split between the Prime and Kelvin Timelines happened in 2233. The USS Franklin went missing sometime after 2161. So everything that happened before the branch point in 2233 happened in both timelines. As of now the prime USS Franklin is still listed as MIA.

Not necessarily. One of the writers of the 2009 movie mentioned quantum timelines in an interview and the way changes can ripple both ways on the timeline so it is not a simple branch. And that does fit with quantum timeline theory, where like a number of other bits of quantum weirdness, an effect can precede the cause.
Remember, in the Kelvin timeline you cannot go back in time to fix things like they do a lot in Prime trying would just put the time traveler on another branch, which also implies that it is not a simple, clean branching from a shared trunk too.
