rcassandrasaturn is back in STO, surprising absolutely no one.

http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline#/discussion/1216805/star-trek-online-information-revived

Some background: rcassandrasaturn is another Mentally Ill Pubbie (TM) who had a pretty wonderful meltdown during the last Risa summer event and "quit the game." He identifies with the character Korra from some Nickelodeon cartoon and created several X-rated website speaking as that character. Until last year he was usually found on Risa ERPing in zone, and when players inevitably told him to knock it off, he ran crying to the forums and Trendy saying that he was the victim of transphobia in-game. When Trendy didn't save him, he vowed to quit STO forever.

In this thread, he is using the SAME account as before, with the SAME sig, but seems to think he can play the "you're thinking of someone else" card whenever someone brings up his past.

I'd post links to his websites and blogs but I'm on a public computer at the moment.

Well they never left in the first place.

The only break they did seems to have been between January and now, but that was six months after the hiatus post was made.

EDIT: I don't know about Risa specifically, but I've repeatedly seen them hanging around Zone at the Sol System after they posted about their supposed hiatus.

Apparently OP's hiatus lasted all of 12 hours at best.

I noticed that when I went back through his forums post history. He's been more or less out of Risa and ESD zone chat, though, so I'll still call it a hiatus. I wonder if anyone is still in his STOAfterDark channel besides himself and five goon alts.

They're pretty popular on Reddit.
The new TOS Queue is on tribble.

The Doomsday device is on rails heading towards a Star Base, you pick up warp cores from a near by asteroid base commanded by Scotty

You drop the Warp cores into the path of the Doomsday slowing it down, once it reaches a certain point, a giant warp core is spawned at the Asteroid base that you need to drop in front of it which will kill it.

All the while you're attacked by either TOS era Romulans, Gorn or Klingons who will also attack the Starbase and the warp cores you drop, and if you're attacked while holding the giant warp core you will drop it.

When the giant core spawns they'll ignore the starbase and just go after it and who ever is holding it.

Can a single person carry the rest of the team? Because I'm not sure the general population of this game is capable of running queues that involve more than "shoot all the things".

If I got banned now after spending totes legit like a million bucks on this game I'd be so mad you guys, so mad.

Thing is I'm not convinced that these people will stay away after being banned, if anything they'll make a new account and buy all that poo poo again.

Streetwalker made that bio so we'd stop claiming he was an ERPer.

Also: that thread is getting pretty good tbh. I love the "well this pubbie HATES Dental so that means HE'S GREAT" comments because they obviously don't know how completely deranged rcassandrasaturn is. He spent hours in zone talking about his masturbation habits and once complained that his doctor told him to stop doing it because he was physically damaging himself.

It's more about how "active" their chat is. 16 players. Even at our deadest, we've got a good dozen and a half folks in our channel.
