The growing requests to bring Elites back
Whether it be for achievements, costume unlocks, or simply about
having a challenging STF that rewarded properly, The Borg Elites are

“Now, I'm a big supporter of the “Cryptic isn't Blizzard” reasoning,
people like to bring up games like WoW all the time and compare them
with STO, which I do find insulting to the devs. You can't put a company
that has 10x the entire employment roster of Cryptic as a whole just
working on one game in the same playing field. The same finesse and
balance will never be achieved.

This week in Trek:
Nichelle Nichols meets MLK at an NAACP fundraiser. He convinces her
to remain on Star Trek. (Not sure of the date of this incident but since
it was Martin Luther King Day on Monday it was was worth a mention) http://www.npr.org/2011/01/17/1329424…
