Since somebody found it funny to alter their display name to abuse the privledge of having the ability to change it, it's been revoked from everyone cept staff and above. (Considering I never realized it was active in the first place hehe) While it's quite hillarious posting as someone else, its going a tad bit overboard and is confusing for everyone involved. So... you all suck ^^

Depending on my lovely schedule (gotta install an intake manifold in a car lol) the website will be offline tomorrow around 8:30-9pm PST to upgrade the site to the latest greatest toy (ie the latest version). Nothing will be loss downtime should be like 5 minutes blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda Questions can be posted here on this thread. Comments an go into the shoutbox, complaints an go into Jason's head.

What the flying fuck?

Yes they are.

Pretty much

Welcome to star trek folks!

Yeah i'm not too sure about this myself but I'm willing to give him a shot.

Section 31 obviously had their own fleet. This was apparent in Deep Space Nine when Bashir was taken by S31 to be interrogated and pretty much made an operative. If they designed the phase cloaking device or not is up in the air, most people believe that they did. I don't know it's probable. As for WMD's - Any torpedo can be turned into a WMD so uh yeah, obviously they have it

Would explain a lot.

Ugh god damn kids.... Happy bday

I can review it just don't take anything I say too personally... people tend to do that a lot >.>

Great story bro.

So long story short, we hate the way vBulletin is going and the fact there is still quite a few bugs involved. So, we are moving to IPB once again. A new skin has been picked (that is just uber sexy), new shoutbox ready, and the works. All posts, user accounts etc will remain and shouldn't be effected. When will this happen? This weekend! YAY! Probably tomorrow at around 3pm PDT since I'll already be doing updates to my minecraft server. The downtime should only last around 10-15 minutes because I know kung-fu. Also, because I've done this change many times on many sites. Any questions can be posted in this thread. Comments can go in the shoutbox to be laughed at. Concerns can either go in the shoutbox to be ignored or posted on this thread and I may respond if I'm not bored.

With what else those spoilers say, if it's all true I might be sadly sadly disappointed. I'll obviously see it for my own eyes but yeah I'll loose hope in them pretty fast.

You may commence with the drug reference jokes.

I'm taking this with a grain of salt. What Braga wants is one thing, but until we hear CBS saying okie dokie shit aint goin anywhere.

I voted the way I did because I wanted to. There is my explanation.

In the past, there has been a lot of debate (internally not directly on asvs) about if STO is canon or not canon in the ST world. I was at first told it's soft canon with really no explination involved beyond that point. Recently, I was given a chance to get further information then had to wait for it to be publically released before I could comment on what I knew (due to NDA's and such). Basically it comes down to this - Star Trek Online had the opportunity to be full out canon. However, out of their own choice, they went with the "soft canon" label with CBS approval over majority of their work due to the simple fact they wanted to be able to provide a story without having to really STRICTLY adhere to canon (not to mention it'd be 100% boring as shit to play ^^). All storyline ideas must be approved by CBS. The Path to 2409 was approved by CBS. Ships are, for the most part, approved by CBS. So in most ways, STO is more canon than most books, games etc out there (as they are keeping CBS in the loop and asking "Daddy can I?" on almost every step where as books and other games really don't at all). So after some discussions with Tyralak, we have decided that the STORYLINE OF EVENTS can be used as a source in debates. What is not considered allowed to be added is any actions done by a player. The reason for this is even CBS wouldn't allow a players action to become anywhere near canon or else.. well lets just say there would be a lot of sexual actions going on ^^. Also, if a series/movie overwrites the 2409 timeline (from STO), that then becomes canon STO becomes non canon. Therefor, as of this point STO is considered "canon" for debate purposes, until a new series takes place after the events of nemesis (STX) which would then change the timeline as written by STO. So yes, if jason ever popped back up I guess he could have his damn personal shields now lol. As such I should mention that the power levels are designed for a game, not for canon so those will not be allowed to be added into debate as a source.

Normally there is only a few things that cause double posting. Either internet lag from you to the server, or the mysql server lagging up. I did do some updates to the main system recently that may have caused the mysql server to go ZOMG WTF BBQ and crap itself. I've looked over the forums today to see if anything has cropped up but I don't see anything double post wise so it might of filtered itself out. If not, there are a few other things I can look at, and if need be, do crap to the forum software to knock it in the butt.

The shoutbox has been reactivated and no lame ass sounds as they have been removed. Enjoy!

The shoutbox in all its awesomeness, uses an UNGODLY amount of cpu/ram to keep running as much as you bastards need it too. Simply put, it's crippling a server it shouldn't be I've taken offline for the next few hours (at least until early Monday morning) till I find an alternative that won't cause leakage of nasty stuff. Any questions, comments concerns or stupid crap just post on this thread. If you wish to really complain hardcore, e-mail Ty *runs off*

So sup losers After 2 months, and a lot of bitching at coders, the update I've been waiting for is here and as such the shoutbox will be going back online once I'm back from the store (which should be about 20ish minutes)

...Why did i look at this?

I would just like to add this

This is true. (the above is) there is talks of them doing a show in the 25th century, there is talks of them doing one later in AGT time line, etc. However they could never touch the jjabrams universe due to how licensing is. Personally I wanna see one based on romulans especially after the destruction of their home world but that's just me.
