Well I have to say I am suitably impressed so far, I have yet to get a new ship yet and i'm playing Tactical specialistion as I like to blow stuff up. I want a Cheyenne class!

Also my screen name is my name (How Orginal!) It is Conner Jai Bentley and my ship is called the USS Expedition, sounded spacey but I may start a theme soon with Warships particuly those of type 45 destroyers.  :evil:

Eh, that's the kind of small whoopsies you get with small teams.

And I agree with the sentiment in that post, the Phoenix should play "Magic Carpet Ride" when launched.

EDIT: Killa, I did naming themes for both of my Feddies.  For my primary character, they've all been legendary weapons, though I was also able to keep to the theme of Luna-class starships being named after moons.  I named it Hyperion, both after a moon of Saturn and Seifer Almasy's gunblade from Final Fantasy VIII.  For my secondary, they're going to all be based on Tolkien themes.  For my Klingon character...they're all going to be random cause I don't know any Klingon. :P

Killa, you might want to go with an escort if your a tac.  They tend to go together much better than a tac (born to dps) and a cruiser (built to tank)

On another note my first toon had his ships named after British submarine classes but my latest one hasn't had much of a theme.  Some named after characters from Shakespeare, 2 have been named for places (Cardiff, Dunkirk) and 1 possibly 2 have been named for famous engineers.

As an RN aficionado I quite like the names of the T45s
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

1800 09/04/12 STO server seems to have melted. Nothing is working, game, launcher even the forums are displaying "We'll be right back"

Something big is going down.

Hehe, I've just realised that my ships registration number is a bit borked.  it's displaying USS AUDACIOUS 98709870987098.  And that's it.  Akira class.

Mine's been like that ever since I got the Akira class. Same registry number as the one you've posted actually.

Managed to get it fixed. Just had to pay a visit to the ship tailor and fiddle with things.  It seems to be an old bug that was fixed back in '10 that has re emerged.

Had a horrible kerrat run just now.  Some goon called "K'lar@frogman77" (VA) decided to be a tough guy and take on a group of lvl 25s exclusively.  Sure it's a warzone but shouldn't you have some restraint?  Everyone from both sides was yelling at this dude to have some self restraint and take on other more suitable to his level.
A few other lvl 50 feds decided to stick with us to see what this guy would do.  Predictably K'lar went as quiet as anything and ran away from people his own level.  Once they left this guy de cloaks and starts off again with his barrage of torpedoes and a tirade of abuse hurled at the "f**king n00bs ruining my zone".  What cheek!
Not like he was much good anyway, he had a load of rainbow guns on his bop!

Am I crying about this? As much as it sounds like I am I'm not.  If I were in his position I would have left a bunch of lvl 25s be.  

EDIT

This sounds interesting but my head tells me it's just a rerun of the cardie lockboxes  :hithead:
