No one at cryptic likes the design it seems.

If anyone wants to donate items to the Stonewall fleet's PRIDE weekend event, send your items to this guy: @nicholasjohn16

Pubbies are absolutely furious that this event is even being held without GM/Dev intervention, so that in itself should be all the incentive we need to make this year's STO Pride fest the best year YET.

Yeah, they replaced most of the remaining Typhoon spawns in missions and such too, didn't they? Outside of the one sitting in battle group omega, which is a map that I'm pretty sure Cryptic has forgotten even exists.

Yeah, 99% of the NPCs have been replaced if they were from the dreadnaught group.

Any that were placed manually or what ever are not.

They are legit. They are a real LGBT fleet and their open invitation to join their sixth annual pride weekend has been hijacked by pubbies who hate the idea that a pro-gay community exists in their game. I attended a few of their events today, and they're pretty alright as far as pubbies go. They have another full day of stuff tomorrow, I believe.

Their event schedule: http://fleet.stonewallgaming.net/pride

Not only that, but if you call them out for their stupid opinions, they simply respond with "oh, you DON'T like equality/freedom? :smug:" All around horrible group of people.

FYI, Stonewall fleet were the people who brought us the official Enemies List back in the day, with denalts and suspected denalt names featured prominently. I have no idea why; I can't remember doing anything to them. As far as I know, we've never trolled an outright LGBT fleet on purpose.

Ah, that was them? They were nice enough to me yesterday and one of them apologized to me in PMs for judging our fleet too quickly. Yeah I don't remember explicitly doing anything to their fleet in the past.

I remember this, but I don't think their fleet was anything to do with LGBT at that time. It was because some of them ran into Dentals on Drozana/got blown up repeatedly in the PvPs back in the day if memory serves.

If the fleet was named Stonewall, they were LGBT. Stonewall's a reference.

It has reached new heights in buttery. They somehow managed to make it briefly good, but then they drove that progress into the ground and began spewing previously-unheard of levels of poop.

Nobody plays the game. PvP is completely dead thanks to the power creep, PvE has a lot of poo poo at end game but everybody only play the same 3 or 4 maps, goon chat is often quiet for hours at a time and with the summer event ending there won't be very many people to annoy in a convenient place. The people getting the best results barely even log on, it's all stuff that happens on the forums or here because some lunatics religiously check up on goons because of paranoia and who knows what else.

It was the second one. Some Stonewall guys were what started the complaining about fireworks lagging systems in ker'rat, back when then fartcelsior was still relevant.

If they revamp the DS9 missions, I hope they have a Mirror Universe mission where you face the mirror version of yourself. We know they can clone us on NPCs with different outfits, we saw it with the Delta Recruit stuff.

Anyone else watching this one pubbie completely melt down on the forums over the pride event? Think he has about 12 or so spam threads up in General Discussion.

EDIT:

Caught this private message from Xean to Askray whilst perusing recent forum activity. Looks like someone got in trouble in his own fleet thread.

quote:

@askray, I appreciate the words of advice you have given and have tried to talk to you about problems with these individuals before. I try to uphold the rules, I WANT to abide by the rules, but what do you expect me to do when they are openly breaking the rules, harassing us on a daily basis in game and trolling us in the forums? I did not sign up for STO for bullying or to be bullied, so what do you expect me to do when they are pushing people around then telling everybody that they are "Pillars of the community with devs in their pockets"? I like my account to remain nice and clean. Whenever you ask me not to do something, I am glad to comply without you telling me twice. But for goodness sake's, uphold the rules on those whose habit it is to make a mockery of them. Do something about trolls stalking my threads, or is it only my behavior which breaks the rules because I speak out against rule-breaking behavior in the first place?

Virusdancer is in the thread telling people that the "no posting of private information" clause in TOS includes gay people. People shouldn't openly refer to themselves as LGBT because that's private information.

Never mind that the clause clearly refers to doxxing, not one's preference or lifestyle, if we can twist the TOS to keep gays off STO - despite the mod team all being outspoken members of the LGBT community - so be it.

Wasn't virus banned temporarily for freaking out about the lesbian Klingons and bluegeek's probation? Glad he learned his lesson.
