The fire at Safal Pegasus, in which 12 people got injured, has raised an age old question of implementation of fire safety norms at high rise buildings in the city. Shocking as it may seem, only 15% of high rise buildings in the city have proper functional fire safety system. Meanwhile, the Ahmedabad fire and emergency services (AFES) has stopped commercial use of the building and asked them to set the fire safety system right.
There are 1,245 high rise buildings in Ahmedabad. As per fire and emergency department's record, only 254 buildings have proper operational fire safety system.
Not just this, the fire department officials say that there are many other buildings like Safal Pegasus which have faulty designs.
MF Dastoor, chief fire officer of AFES, said that the fire safety NOC of Safal Pegasus has been revoked and its commercial use banned. "Once they restore their electrical fittings and fire safety system, a proper inspection will be conducted. Only after this will the NOC be re-issued," he said.
On the question of why an NOC is given in the first place to buildings with faulty fire safety system, the fire and emergency department of AMC pointed out that the NOC is granted to a new building only after proper inspection.
So there is no question of new high rise buildings not having fire safety system. However, once the building is handed over to individual owners or cooperative housing societies, they fail to maintain the system resulting into problems, the officials maintain.
Meanwhile, the state government has been in the process of forming Fire (Safety and Protection) Act and matter is also sub-judice in Gujarat High Court.

David Best's Temple
Golden Archway
Miniature Golf
Peace - by Tony Labat
Ecstasy by Karen Cusolito and Dan Das Mann
Adaptations by Mark Baugh-Sasaki
The inaugural installation at Patricia's Green in Hayes Valley , June 2005, was a 40 foot tall
David Best Temple
. The temples of celebrated artist David Best are slowly making their way from Burning Man into the mainstream. This temple was made from leftover plywood cutouts from a Bay Area toy factory.
Golden Archway
" constructed of steel scaffolding and gold colour pieces of fabric hung in the style of Tibetan Prayer Flags.
Miniature Golf
came to Patricia's Green and to the adjoining vacant lot. Complete with a mini clubhouse in the park and sets of handmade golf clubs, the mini golf course was a reflection and tribute to the history of Hayes Valley. The golf course was the creative vision of the collaborative team of Scott Constable and Ene Osteraas-Constable. They have been creating public art in the Bay Area for more than a decade. Please visit their website:
4. Koilos
, the 16 foot high steel sculpture by Bay Area artist Michael Christian, was installed in our park May 2008 to November 2008. Michael is very well known for his art installations around the Bay Area, at Burning Man Festival and at Cochilla Music Festival. Koilos was first installed on The Playa at Burning Man 2007 and is now installed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
For more information on Michael, please visit his website:
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Peace Symbol, highly regarded Bay Area artist Tony Labat, installed his
Symbol. Constructed of powder coated steel, his Peace Symbol is 10 feet in diameter.
Tony Labat has received many awards and grants for his art, including two from The National Endowment for the Arts.
This installation was sponsored by The San Francisco Arts Commission.
Bay Area artist Mark Baugh-Sasaki created a "site specific" installation for our park. The working title is "
". It is constructed of welded steel and the limbs of trees trimmed and/or fallen in Golden Gate Park. Please visit Mark's website:
by Karen Cusolito and Dan Das Mann
First displayed at the Burning Man festival in Nevada in 2007, Ecstasy is one of the eight monumental metal figures of the artists' masterpiece, Crude Awakening. In Crude Awakening, these eight figures surrounded a 99-foot tall wooden oil derrick in gestures of prostration, worship and exaltation. The figures represented the 'faithful'; the religious peoples of the world in their various postures of worship, all joining together in homage of the ominous symbol of the oil derrick. The installation culminated in a massive firework and fire display, and in the burning of the oil derrick. It was the biggest and most memorable burn to date at the Burning Man event.
Alone, Ecstasy embarks on a hopeful journey. Instead of throwing her head back in reverie to the oil derrick, she gazes wistfully into the open sky as she steps forward into the future. Her name expresses a sudden change of attitude and belief in hope; an moment of being overcome by passionate optimism in a future beyond our culture's dependency on fossil fuel.

LOS ANGELES — A former teacher and athletic coach at Royal Oak Middle School in Covina, who pleaded guilty to producing child pornography and using the Internet to entice a minor to engage in sex, was sentenced Monday to 23 1/2 years in federal prison.
John David Boyle, 52, of Glendora, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Stephen V. Wilson. At Monday's hearing, Judge Wilson said Boyle's crimes were "horrendous" and that "the damage done to the victims is incalculable."
The charges are the result of a probe by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC).
Boyle, who in addition to teaching was also an athletic coach, pleaded guilty in March to enticement of a minor to engage in criminal sexual activity, admitting that he molested a 14-year-old boy whom he met online. Boyle also pleaded guilty to production of child pornography, distribution of child pornography, and possession of child pornography.
Boyle "spent years collecting child pornography from the Internet, traded child pornography over email, participated in sexually explicit conversations in Internet chat rooms in which he enticed underage boys to engage in sexually explicit conduct, and personally molested multiple underage boys," prosecutors wrote in a sentencing brief filed with the court.
During the course of the investigation, Boyle engaged in online chats with an undercover agent, believing the undercover agent shared his sexual interest in young boys, according to court documents. Boyle set up an in-person meeting with the undercover agent in his classroom at the school on a Sunday, believing the purpose of the meeting was to engage in sexual activity while watching child pornography together.
After being confronted by authorities in June 2013, Boyle allowed them to access several of his online accounts. Investigators then discovered that Boyle had used one of his accounts to distribute child pornography. Following Boyle's arrest, further investigation by agents revealed that Boyle had abused at least one other underage victim in the late 1980s.
"Simply put, defendant is a sexual predator, who has avoided detection by law enforcement for many years and poses an extreme danger not just to the community, but also to the most vulnerable in it – namely, young children," prosecutors stated in their sentencing brief.

text: The countdown before Lakers training camp remains a little more than a week away. The countdown before Dwight Howard returns to the court remains another story. The Lakers have already announced the Lakers center will miss at least the Lakers' preseason opener Oct. 7 against Golden State as he rehabs from back surgery. His workouts beginning last week with the Lakers training staff included core stabilization, upper and lower body strength, light running and shooting. He's not expected to participate in training camp beginning Oct. 2. And in his introductory news conference last month, Howard acknowledged he may miss the season opener Oct. 30 against the Dallas Mavericks if it means ensuring his back becomes fully healthy.

Article Summary
For most air travelers, turbulence provides nothing more serious than the odd moment of extreme panic, but it costs airlines hundreds of millions of dollars each year in injury compensation and aircraft damage. There are various different types of turbulence, but the most dangerous, because it is invisible and extremely difficult to detect, is clear-air turbulence (CAT). A new CAT detection technology that could help pilots choose a smoother route is now being tested as part of a European joint project called DELICAT (Demonstration of LIDAR based CAT detection).

Expansion of Bridge Officers
Many great suggestions have come from players and devs regarding expansion of bridge officers. One thing I'd love to see is an expansion of their functionality. Many times while on an away mission I feel like I as the captain am doing everything and the BOFFs are standing around until it comes to combat.
Perhaps we could have the ability to issue non-combat orders to our BOFFs, such as asking them to scan the area for lifeforms or for atmospheric content, or scan something specific in the environment. Tactical officers could be given orders to secure the area, which would cause them to patrol the immediate vicinity of the away team. Eng officers could analyze and repair items or damaged parts of a boarded ship...etc etc.
Would also like to be able to issue an emote command to a BOFF, it would be an awesome roleplaying tool.
Thanks! :)
I'd like to be able to promote one or two (depending on my rank, one at rear admiral, two at vice admiral) to the rank of captain, assign them command of one of the old lower tier ships I've got laying around, and call them in as backup during a fight every five minutes or so. (All equipment on the ship should virtually downgrade to captain level (mk VIII) while they're in command, so they're not too tough.) They'd have no BOs of their own so they'd be limited to their own BO abilities during the fight, and could no longer be used as regular bridge officers, assigned to consoles on your ship, unless you demote them back (not presently possible).
Yes indeed, City of Villains. I remember ordering my soldier henchmen to stand for inspection, make them do pushups and jumping jacks while I yelled at them...great times!
I really like this idea too. Being able to ask my away team to fan out and search for objectives would make some of the maps much less tedious. It would also give me a reason to change up my away team. For instance on a research mission I might take more science BoFFs if they could scan for things on their own.
I'd also like to be able to give non-combat commands while in combat. Maybe telling a team member to operate an objective console I'm trying to get too while I provide covering fire for example. Or ordering one to resuscitate a fallen group member rather then relying on them doing it themselves.
I've been thinking about some ideas for the whole turning a bo into a npc pet captain, as this would definately give your admiral characters something to literally justify their rank within the scheme of things.
But there should be some stipulations, for example for a commander boff to be eligable for promotion he should have the experience required so it should be limited to boffs that have been at commander rank for at least 60 days or someother reasonable amount of time the training process should take a day or so to represent the boff going to sf command and getting a ship and running shakedowns with the new crew. The ships in heneral should probably not be as powerful as your own the idea of everything for the boff captain being capped at mk viii is perfect for this.
And occasionally you should receive hails from your boff captain about situations that his ship has ran across think of it as a sort of oregon trail type method. You are presented with a situation and a status report and then tell him on which method to proceed and depending on his ship and traits have it calculate some form of reward or loot table for him and his crew or adversely a penalty.
For example let's say capt davenport was your former chief engineer and was recently given command of one of your garage cruisers a galaxy for instance. He hails in repirting that he has run across some orions trying to run a blocade into cardassian space gives the status of his ship at 100 percent and presents the following options, intercept the orions, inform/assist the blocade or scan the orions .
Let's say you choose to intercept the following occurs: the capt boff's traits, ship type, and efficiency/health status are all calculated into a matrix and averaged against the orions with the choice to intercept providing some modifiers and a result value is generated and a decision given based on where it falls in the table.
For example capt davenport reports that he was able to intercept the orions and in the ensuing combat was able to disable 2 of the 3 ships however his warp engines are damaged and he needs to return to starbase ds9 for repairs. Result: gained random loot items, exp, and capt davenport cannot be used for 8 hours due to repairs
Just some random thoughts all typos due to RIM making far too tiny keys on blackberries
I'm surprised this thread has not received more attention given the potential application of what it's discussing.
It should be pretty straightforward ... say a resuscitate option to make them resuscitate the select avatar and a second one based on class.
I'd suggest:
i think that is too much potential clutter on the interface... but one simple work around would be the ability to switch your point of view to a boff, with limited abilities
abilities you can do: walking/running, firing -for defense-, setting movement waypoints, selecting items, using special ability items
stuff you cannot do: switch weapons, pick up dropped items, transport out
for example,
1. you select the BOFF from your UI team options. once switched, you have the team members on the side panel as normal, giving you the ability to switch to other BOFFS if needed.
2. you begin positioning, walking or running BOFF # 1 to a certain location, issue out a set of incremental commands, (such as attack this selected bad guy, waypoint to this location, then activate that selected console, and then attack this selected bad guy.)
3. an "execute orders" button pops up. now you can either switch (through the UI) to another BOFF, or select the "execute orders" button. once selected, your point of view auto switches back to your main character as all BOFFs given orders would carry them out in sequence. this would be very useful in tactical strikes and investigating.
or maybe the "execute orders" button appears once you switch back to your captain.. might make more sense

Darkness has a bad name. For almost all of us, darkened cellars, corners, and shadowy streets are frightening, to be avoided unless absolutely necessary. But according to spiritual author Barbara Brown Taylor (Leaving Church; An Altar in the World), the lack of light, like nighttime, is a natural part of a cycle; a stage that can be approached without anxiety. In fact, she asserts, God works in the darkness too, even when we can't see Him or sense His presence or wisdom. Learning to Walk in Darkness is an evocative book that succeeds in calming us even in the midst of uncertainty.

#14 Mercer Upsets #3 Duke in NCAA Tournament
March 21st, 2014
by JOEDY McCREARY, AP Sports Writer
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Daniel Coursey scored 17 points and Mercer pulled off the biggest upset in the NCAA tournament so far by knocking off Duke 78-71.
Jakob Gollon added 20 points for the 14th-seeded Bears (27-8).
The Atlantic Sun champions — the same league that produced 2013 tournament darling Florida Gulf Coast — shot 56 percent.
The Bears were simply too much for a Duke team with stars Jabari Parker and Rodney Hood.
Mercer scored 11 straight points during the late 20-5 run that clinched the biggest victory in school history. It's the second one-and-done in three years for the third-seeded Blue Devils.

Clip Reel: Rudy Fernandez
Don't let him catch you slippin.
What is "Clip Reel?"
Rudy Fernandez is having a helluva rookie year. The 24th pick in last year's draft is averaging around 11 a game, but he only plays 25 minutes. When he's on the court you can pretty much assume there will be a backdoor alley oop thrown down over some unsuspecting victim. Now, this week, he's been voted into the Dunk Contest as the fan's pick. We'd though we'd give you a history (via video) of some of his filthiest moments so far.

Rehabbing Julius Randle close to recovered for LakersMay 29th, 2015, 4:42 pm by BY BILL ORAM
EL SEGUNDO – Two Kentucky Wildcats could anchor the Lakers frontcourt for a long time. All it would take is for the Lakers to settle on Karl-Anthony Towns, hope he drops to No. 2, pair him with Julius Randle
Voila, an impenetrable Wall of Wildcats.
"It wouldn't be bad at all," Randle said, laughing, on Thursday.
He made it clear he wasn't making an outright endorsement of Towns, the stalwart center who followed in Randle's footsteps as a one-and-done player at Kentucky.

Euro-area finance ministers blessed the next disbursement of emergency aid for Greece, highlighting the goodwill that led to the unblocking of loans last month for Prime Minister Antonis Samarass government.
At a meeting on Monday in Brussels, the euro finance chiefs gave the green light for the payout of 9.2 billion euros ($12.3 billion) to Greece this month. Of the funds, 7.2 billion euros in bonds are for the further recapitalization of Greek banks and 2 billion euros in cash are to cover the governments budget needs.
The trouble-free payout of new loans for Greece indicates greater European political confidence in the ability of the government in Athens to press ahead with budget cuts and market- opening initiatives outlined in the nations international aid program. That in turn has helped lessen speculation that was rife last year about a possible Greek exit from the 17-nation single currency.
We perceive a greater commitment to keep Greece in the currency union, if it complies with the program, London-based Morgan Stanley analysts including Daniele Antonucci said in a report yesterday. Many transitory support measures have already been extended, more will come.
More time
The disbursement for January is part of a 49.1 billion-euro tranche that the euro area approved last month for Greece through March after revamping the nations second rescue. Policy makers gave the Samaras government two extra years until 2016 to meet budget-cutting targets. Europe split the whole tranche into sub-installments over four months to allow more oversight of Greeces progress in curbing expenditure and overhauling the recession-hit economy.
We noted with satisfaction that the milestones for January have been achieved, Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean- Claude Juncker, who led the Brussels meeting of euro-area finance ministers, told reporters afterward.
Greece received 34.3 billion euros last month, including funds for banks. After the January disbursement, the country is due to get about 5.6 billion euros for budget obligations in two separate payments in February and March. The International Monetary Fund is contributing a separate amount to Greece of about 3 billion euros this quarter.
Two bailouts
These sums are part of a 130 billion-euro rescue package approved early last year after an initial 110 billion-euro bailout in 2010. The second rescue also included the biggest write-down of privately held debt.
The euro areas rescue funds, the European Financial Stability Facility and the European Stability Mechanism, will probably clear aid payments to Greece, Spain and Portugal in a week as the final step in the disbursement, according to Klaus Regling, who heads the EFSF and the ESM.
Loans for Athens were frozen last June after Greek opposition grew to fiscal austerity thats a condition for European and IMF aid. Greece held two elections in which anti- bailout parties gained and Samaras emerged as the head of a three-party coalition in favor of staying in the euro while seeking more time to meet targets for narrowing the budget deficit as the economy shrinks for the sixth year.

6 (1 ounce) squares
semi-sweet chocolate
1 cup
unsalted butter
1/2 cup
light corn syrup
eggs, beaten
1/2 cup
walnuts, chopped
1 (9 inch)
prepared graham cracker crust
This was absolutely fabulous. I followed others recommendations and added 1 tsp. of instant coffee, 1 tsp. of vanilla and dusted the nuts with flour. For my own personal taste I used (4) squares of semi-sweet chocolate and (2) squares of bittersweet. It was dark, rich and decadent. I also served it with fresh sweetened whipped cream. Will be making it with pecans today, may try it with macadamia nuts too.
I didn't think this was that great. I made 2 of them and neither turned out that well. The center took a long time to cook, much longer than 35 min. and the edges were a little hard.

Even better the second day, if that is possible, deep rich chocolate flavor, so easy to prepare! I used chopped pecans coated with flour so they would not sink, 1 tsp vanilla, and 1 tsp instant coffee, I only had unsweetened chocolate squares, so just added granulated sugar to taste while cooling - this is a keeper! I made 2 and froze one for later - but that may be very soon!
Super yummy :) Added instant coffee and vanilla and topped each serving with fresh whipped cream. It's very rich and chocolatey. Will definitely make a again.
Made this for my son in laws birthday, I have never tried Mississippi Mud Pie, went with this one. Added 1 tsp instant coffee and 1 tsp vanilla. It was good, but got a 'thumbs up' from the SIL !!! YAY !!! Thanks for sharing !!!
I made this for dinner with friends and was very dissapointed. Too much butter and not enough chocolate taste.
I couldn't believe how easy - and so delicious. I left out walnuts due to a nut allergy. Added vanilla ice cream on top and it was a huge hit for Thanksgiving!!
This was great. I added a Tablespoon if instant coffee for a little kick. My husband loved it!

Chevalier Ernest Thorn
From MagicPedia, the free online encyclopedia for magicians by magicians.
Revision as of 05:43, 17 March 2010 by Philippe billot (Talk | contribs)
Chevalier Ernest Thorn (September 22, 1855 - May 21, 1928), born in Jaroslau, Austria, was a touring magician and inventor.[1]
After first being an assistant to Bellachini, he made extensive tours of Europe, America, and the Orient.
His act called "An Hour in Dreamland", introduced a number of his creations. Among his innovations was the cremation illusion in which his assistant vanished in flames as she stood within an asbestos curtain. Another was "Noah's Ark" in which a model of the Ark, first shown empty, produced various animals, climaxing in the production of Noah's wife.[2]
Thorn died in Leipzig, Germany.

The emergence of independent Belarus
Following Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev's initiation of more moderate policies in the mid-1980s, the Belorussian S.S.R. acted somewhat less vigorously than other Soviet republics to break away from the Soviet Union, although there was a steady growth in national separatist feeling. Amid the crisis of central authority in the U.S.S.R. in the early 1990s, the Belorussian S.S.R. declared sovereignty (July 27, 1990) and independence (August 25, 1991). With the collapse of Communist Party rule and the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the wake of the failed coup against Gorbachev, the Belorussian S.S.R. changed its name to the Republic of Belarus and joined the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), a free association of sovereign states that were formerly part of the Soviet Union.
Legislative elections in Belarus in 1990 had resulted in a communist-dominated Supreme Soviet that delayed the implementation of a market economy and vacillated for some three years before adopting a new constitution in March 1994. That document created the office of president, to which the pro-Russian Alyaksandr Lukashenka was elected in July 1994. Legislative elections followed in 1995, but, owing to the strictures of the Belarusian electoral system (to be seated, candidates had to capture 50 percent of the vote of a turnout of 50 percent of eligible voters), four rounds of voting were required before a quorum was reached in December 1995 (even then, more than 60 seats remained vacant). Many members of the legislature were independents; indeed, the largest voting block was not a political party per se but a group that supported Lukashenka, who increasingly sought to dominate the Supreme Soviet. In a referendum in November 1996—the legitimacy of which was widely disputed—Lukashenka won approval for a constitutional change that granted him near-absolute power and extended his five-year term. The parliamentary opposition sought to impeach Lukashenka and to eliminate the office of president, but the opposition's efforts were countered by Lukashenka's signing of the revised constitution, which closed the Supreme Soviet and created a new legislative body (from which the opposition was excluded) with greatly reduced powers.
In contrast to much of central and eastern Europe at the time, Lukashenka set Belarus on a course of isolation from the West, maintaining the economics of market socialism. Support for the government's efforts to establish close ties with Russia was widespread but not without opposition. In 1997–99 Belarus entered the Union State, a political and economic union with Russia that had initially been negotiated with Russian Pres. Boris Yeltsin but was recast by his successor, Vladimir Putin, who lessened the burden his country had initially agreed to bear in the partnership. Although disputes arose between the two countries over the union's impact on issues such as defense and natural resources, they agreed on the goal of a common currency, an idea first broached in the early 1990s. With Belarus firmly hitched to Russia's fortunes, its economy responded accordingly—for example, stumbling in 1998 as a result of Russia's financial collapse. Though Russia had long been Belarus's main trading partner, the volume of their trade expanded in the early 21st century as Belarus experienced modest industrial growth.
Many international observers were critical of the Belarusian government and of the essentially authoritarian role Lukashenka adopted beginning in 1996. Relations with the European Union (EU) were particularly strained. Widely considered the most repressive regime in Europe, Belarus staged undemocratic elections, suppressed political opposition, and silenced the press. Leaders of the political opposition often agitated from exile, while antigovernment figures who arose within Belarus were occasionally beaten, jailed, or "disappeared"—seized by the authorities and never heard from again.

Both Soda Tax Initiatives Failed in California
Today on The Daily Meal
Recipe of the day
Looks like New York City will continue to forge the lonely war on soda by itself, as the two soda tax initiatives on the ballot in California failed to pass.
Report the Huffington Post and the Los Angeles Times, a whopping 76 percent of the population voted against the soda tax in El Monte, Calif. In Richmond, Calif., 67 percent of the votes were against the ban. The votes may not be a total shock, considering how much money the beverage industry spent fighting the bills. HuffPo reports that the American Beverage Association (ABA) — an outspoken foe of the New York City soda ban and the proposed taxes — spent $2.5 million in Richmond, Calif., and $1.3 million in El Monte, Calif. (It was the most expensive campaign ever in El Monte, Calif.)
Many are disappointed that the soda taxes won't be put into effect considering the two cities' growing obesity rates; they are among the highest in all of California. Still, it looks as though the ABA will continue to dominate the war on soda — until they get to Bloomberg, of course.

ITC clocked an 18 per cent growth in net profit in the first quarter ended June 30, 2013, at Rs.1,891.3 crore against Rs.1,602.1 crore in the same period a year ago.
The cigarettes-to-hotel major, witnessed top line growth across all its business segments barring hotels, which saw flat growth. Net sales from operations increased to Rs.7,338.5 crore from Rs.6,652.2 crore.
In a statement, ITC said that the results came in the backdrop of a challenging environment of a slowdown in private consumption expenditure and steep increase in excise duty on cigarettes.
The revenue growth was driven by agri business (Rs.2,188 crore against Rs.1,691 crore) as well as FMCG businesses, where non-cigarette business grew to Rs.1,750 crore from Rs.1,473 crore.
Weak global macro-economic environment and high levels of room inventory in key domestic markets continue to impact the performance of the hotels business. Paperboards, paper and packaging segment revenues increased by 9.9 per cent aided by new capacity addition. However, high input prices (of wood and coal) have impacted profitability, the statement said.

Even so, this is mostly to Cryptic as a whole, and Mr. Stahl. I do like how he made such an excellent post and actually making some honest, positive changes after so long.
I'm also making this on a bit of faith that has been restored by all this. I'm willing to keep it civil and well-mannered if in return, it means that feedback will be taken more into consideration.
All this is more for Mr. Stahl though. I hope I might be able to at least slightly explain why this happened as it did, why there was so much anger, why people left, and so on. It won't need any game or coding work, just some time to read.
Alright, this is gonna be partially psychology, partially feedback, and partially my opinions. I might sound like an ass at some points, but for the most part I am gonna try and keep this straightforward.
I will start with the release of season 7. People got mad, people were infutiated, I was too, I won't deny it.
Now, if the game up to this point had been totally a-ok, no slew of bugs, no unbalanced PvP, equal factions, and people then started to leave en-masse because of season 7, yes, it would be extremely childish, rude, and they would need to learn manners.
But, they were not just merely mad because they didn't agree with the changes. They were mad for a reason, and they left, for a reason. If nothing else, season 7 did show us that people are willing to only take so much, and that the 'line' was 'crossed', in whatever reason the person felt.
Primarily I think this involves one or more of the following:
1. No time to adapt. There were a HEAP of changes done, primarily to dilithium. Thing is, these were all done in one fell swoop, and thus people had no time to adjust.
Some psychology/sociology: People, regardless of what they might say, DO adapt their lives to do things more efficiently for the most part.
An example in this game would be running Infected space on one toon, then switching and running it again, over and over, to build up dilithium. That's just how some might choose to best use their time. E
ven the Foundry exploit was pretty much just the best using of time for a reward. An exploit, I won't deny it at all, but an efficient means of using your time.
As such, when ALL these changes suddenly hit in one massive upheaval, people got very, understandably, mad.
Even then, they still did adapt. They started running Fleet actions, since they rewarded dilithium, by doing something like SB 24 so fast, that they could get it done in a couple minutes, then just switch toons.
2. Feeling 'ignored' about season 7. This is kind of an umbrella one. Or basically, a lot of people felt ignored about what they said to you devs, especially in the Tribble area. People gave a LOT of info about things that were clearly wrong, yet launched with season 7 as well.
Now I know part of this was obviously that TOR was being made F2P, deny that or admit it, the timing was too close to be 'coincidental'. BUT there was time, there was a chance to fix at least some things before it happened.
Often times, the feedback about the exact problem or exploit, or bug, or balance issue, or anything else, was just simply...ignored. Now yes, there WILL always be loads of 'you need to fix this because I say so', or 'I want this for this reason, and that's all the reason I need', etc.
But sifting through that, there IS plenty of stuff out there showing precisely what a problem is. Plenty of threads down in the ole PvP section which show exactly why something can be overpowered, or show a major exploit (like the old Voldemort one). Even putting aside that, the Omega conversion, regardless of you never posting the exact conversion rate.
In simpler terms for this part: People in this game, can...will...and DO figure out things. It is up to you, both individual devs, Mr. Stahl, and Cryptic as a whole to use it. You cannot say that we need to provide feedback or show numbers, etc, because players do it, and they do it often, for the better of the entire game.
3. Repeats of the past. The players of this game, have dealt with a lot of lies, lead-ons, deceptions, etc, about things in this game. Now some of these can be just overzealous talk, like a dev long ago once said he wanted to make like 9 FE's a year or something.
But, some things can be excused up to a few times, human error and all that. However, when the same things continued to happen over and over, they can understandably start to lose trust very quickly.
Like...the Federation recently got both the Vesta bundle, and the Steamrunner with season 7. Yet, not only has the KDF not gotten a brand new ship since the flagships were released (C-store ships I mean by this, not fleet ships, not lockboxes, and not the 1000-day ships), on top of that, you are already talking about the NEXT Federation ship (the Andorian one). Plus, all the while, talking on how you want to improve the KDF while still not doing anything as of yet.
With all that combined, can you honestly, and I do mean honestly, blame them for being sick of you 'feeding the Fed cash cow' so often? Even the Federation side gets tired of being 'milked' sometimes.
I know that is a rather cold way to view it, but that is how the players feel sometimes.
4. The minorities.
This is going on more on the lesser groups of the game, but certainly more vocal ones: KDF players, and PvPers.
Before anyone says anything: I will ignore all anti-KDF and anti-PvP in this thread, this isn't the focus, DON'T start it.
Here is some of the basic reasoning why they are mad, from what I can generally gather:
KDF: As stated above, they see more and more going for the Federation side of the coin, while little to none being for them. Even if you do include all the new ships this year and season 7's content, the proportional amounts of ships and content remain exactly the same.
Klingon players do not want a greater portion of the game for themselves, they want the game to feel like it's equal between them and the Fed-side. They want to be able to make a Klingon character from level 1 (and as their first toon), play unique, Klingon story missions (sharing the FE's of course). End game can still pretty much be the same on both sides, they just want the earlier stages to be Klingon, not just a Fed rehash.
PvP: PvPers for a long time have probably been the most angered, and most vocal part of these forums. They also seem to be the most ignored. Now, is this good? I don't think so, since so many have left because they were ignored time and time again. They were vocal because they cared, not because they were just complaining for the sake of complaining.
Plus they would generally try to kindly show problems (most of the people here do as well), and how they might get fixed. But most of the time (again, not just PvPers got ignored, look at how long the Foundry exploit stayed), 'being nice', got them ignored. So, they raised hell, 'whined and moaned' until they finally were listened to, and by that time, they were seen as just 'whiny PvPers' by a lot of people.
Now this is kind of seperate, but something worth bringing up about those two minorities:
KDF players are apparently 16% of the playerbase, and PvPers are .02%
Let's pretend the game has 100,000 players, and they only play one side, Fed or KDF.
That means, 16,000 of those people would be KDF players. Of that 100k, only a mere 20 people would PvP, and 3.2 (due to remainders left on the fraction) would be KDF players PvPing.
Now, whether or not those numbers are correct at all means little, instead...
Do not use those numbers, Mr. Stahl, other devs, Cryptic, as a means to say 'Well, because so few people play this, we don't want to put resources into it'. Instead, ask yourselves, 'so few people play this, how can we potentially get more people to play it'?
It is a 'build it and they will come' approach you need to take, but you also have to be willing to take that very leap of faith, or else nothing will improve.
The game will only ever be as strong as it's weakest link.
Well, I'm done for the time being. This is probably the longest single post I've ever written, and btw, no 'TL;DR' comments, because you chose to look at this, knowing the title had the word 'psychology' in it. There's nothing EVER short about something involving psychology.
As a casual pvp player, I have to admit that 90% of the threads in the pvp subforums are overestimating some issues. Most of the time, it's just because they have to change their build because something changed, a new ship has been released, and they hate changing their old stuff and habits. If the pve forums is the kindgom of rookies complaining about supposedly OP borg ships and romulan warbirds, the pvp ones are the realm of moaning because your neighboor got a new toy that will affect your game experience.
There are critical bugs and issues, and they don't affect pvp only (the current doomsday machine bug, allowing you to slot 2-3 commanders is also pve related, mind you) but overally pvp is very playable as long as you're not willing to keep your 2 year-old build and willing to adapt when there's a new doff or a power change, even if it means giving up your super mega OP combo. Most of the time, pvp complaints are just "scis got a new doff/power/ship, nerf it now because i don't like not being able to do what i want to do on the map". :D
And it's not being anti pvp to say that hardcore pvp-ers are often overestimating issues. When i see improvements for a specific boff power, i'm trying to figure out how i could take advantage on it instead of complaining about it because i don't want to change.
"People, regardless of what they might say, DO adapt their lives to do things more efficiently for the most part. "
this is the one sentence that is totuted as psychology /socialoy in the whole thng
and its not psychology or soicolgy
its a made up statement that van be refuted by about every psyuchiatrist on the planet
thanks for the post
Drop a frog in a pan of hot water it'll jump out.
Put a frog in a pan of cold water and very slowly increase the heat, the frog will sit in the pan and let itself get cooked to death.
Cryptic timed it just right, they dropped us into season 7 and slammed the lid on to the players, they where quick :P
sorry I had to.
I play to socialise, climb cryptics maps and tag Epohhs.
On topic though the original post is pretty much on the mark, I was a subber stopped subbing after Season 7.
the Original posts comments about the KDF are spot on though. I have one KDF toon, I thoroughly love flying around in my B'rel Bird Of Prey. instead lack of story content and lack of costumes takes me back to my main Fed toon... just so I can satisfy my tailor addiction.
I can't say the OP said anything I don't agree with, to some extent or another.
Spin it however you want, call it efficiency or laziness, but it's an interesting way to look at the exploit, especially if, as the OP did, you put the common argument/excuse for Cryptic's fed-focus a few points down from it. I'm suddenly reminded of all the times I went on the defensive in the KDF complaints section (usually set off by some frustrated comment about Fed players, cause I really have no horse in that race) to explain again and again that if there's 50 KDF ships sold for every 100 Fed ships, but the cost to create it remains the same, unless they double the price for the KDF ships, then it's only understandable that Cryptic would choose to focus on the latter.
And yet, it is a bit of a one-way street we're expected to accept. They really didn't extend any such understanding to us, when it came to the clickers and to B'Tran. They caved on the STFs, then right along with that they nerfed Fleet Actions back to 480 dilithium and the PvE dailies got gutted.
So yeah, maybe they shouldn't look at those numbers quite so often. I'm starting to feel like I'm on the wrong end of a game of whack-a-mole. :rolleyes:

What happened next? That's what most readers ask.
The stories I write about keep evolving, and I keep my eye on them.
So did the cops ever catch the three guys lurking around backyards on the east side of Santa Ana Heights?
And speaking of Santa Ana Heights – what's next for the Village Crean and its new owner Jim Glidewell?
What's the status of digitizing the old "At Home on the Range" shows?
You've asked – I've got updates.
On Oct. 4 I reported that three suspicious men had residents in the equestrian neighborhood of Santa Ana Heights on high alert.
Multiple calls to Newport Beach police in a week's time didn't lead to finding these guys.
Coincidentally, after the column ran, there were no more sightings of them in the neighborhood.
Newport Beach police Lt. Tom Fischbacher, the area commander, told me last week that he feels the suspects have "moved on."
He's had no reports of them anywhere else in Newport, and reminded me that no crimes were actually committed by these men – they just spooked neighbors.
But he did hold a neighborhood watch meeting at the Santa Ana Heights Fire Station on Oct. 14.
Having never held one of these meetings in this area, Fischbacher says he was very impressed by the standing-room-only turnout.
"It's one of the larger neighborhood community meetings we've held. It's clearly an involved community and that doesn't happen in every neighborhood in town," he said.
At the meeting, police reported there has been a significant reduction in vehicle burglaries in Santa Ana Heights. In fact, all theft-related crimes were down compared to last year.
"In Santa Ana Heights there's been one burglary since January," he told me. "Last year there were eight or nine. This is what a community can do when they pay attention."
He said neighbors should continue to be diligent by locking cars, not leaving valuables in plain sight in vehicles, and keeping garage doors closed when at home as well as doors and windows locked.
"As a police officer, I want people to feel secure," Fischbacher said, "but criminals come to Newport Beach because there is good stuff to steal."
He suggested residents go to the website for more crime prevention tips.
But the talk in Santa Ana Heights isn't all about crime and creepy men lurking in the shadows.

There is Catherine's hilarious liaison with a paragon of bad manners and boastfulness; her disastrous friendship with an unforgettably crass coquette; and a whirl of cotillion dances with their timeless mortifications. A visit to ancient Northanger Abbey, the ancestral home of the novel's handsome hero, excites the irrepressible Catherine's hopes of romance amid gothic horrors. But what awaits her there is a drama of a different kind, in this most youthfully exuberant and broadly comic of Jane Austen's works.
©1818 Public Domain; (P)1995 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"Austen Stretching Her Wings"
In the movie "The Jane Austen Book Club" Riggs says that Northanger Abby is a book about writing books. The young authoress Jane Austen stretches her wings and tries to find her way through the air. At first, I thought that she was taking a shot at the famous author of the day Mrs. Anne Radcliff. Now, I think that in Northanger Abby, Miss Austen was paying her respects.
This a fun book and has become my favorite Austen book with the qualification, my favorite Austen book is usually the one I am reading. Northanger Abby is great when one doesn't want to be bothered with any deep thoughts. Austen's leading ladies are quite different from one another but are very strong women with definite guiding principles and boundaries which they will never cross. I can easily imagine falling in love with any of them (except Lady Susan) and being very happy.
Catherine Moreland is no clever witty Elizabeth Bennett, self controlled Elinor Dashwood, long suffering Anne Elliot or rich beautiful Emma Woodhouse. Nope, Catherine is "almost pretty", naive, not overly well educated, not at all clever but she is sincere, straight forward and I easily understand why Henry got swept away by her. A man cannot resist a decent looking woman with good sense who is in love with him. (That's an Austen paraphrase.)
One observation, Catherine Moreland is a naive unworldly girl but she "ain't" the only one. Pay attention to the very worldly John and Isabella Thorpe and General Tillme. Just as Miss Bingley never had a shot at Mr. Darcy(even without a Elizabeth Bennett), John Thorpe never had a shot at Catherine but was self deluded into thinking she was his for the asking. Isabella was so interested in the bird in the bush that she let slip the bird in the hand and lost both. John and Isabella Thorpe are case studies in how to do everything wrong while trying to captivate a member of the opposite sex. This book is a feel good tonic.
"Better than reading the book!"
Although an Austen fan this was not one of my favourite books, however the audio was free with the ebook, and I have to say the narration made the story so much more enjoyable. Would listen to this narrator again. She did the Thorpes very well. Good range of voices for the different characters.

In a nearly hour-long speech on Monday, Jeffs argued that the entire trial was infringing on his religious freedoms and he defended the practice of polygamy. He also read what he called a statement to him from God, which demanded officials halt proceedings, saying, "I will send a scourge upon the counties of prosecutorial zeal to make humbled by sickness and death." Judge Walther removed the jury during Jeffs' speech and warned him not to repeat the claim in front of jurors.
Walther and Jeffs have repeatedly clashed during the course of the trial. Walther was the judge who approved the 2008 raid on Jeffs' compound that eventually led to his arrest and the current trial. Jeffs called her a "woman of evil intent," and has tried three times to have her removed from the case. All three times his attempts have been denied.
This sexual assault trial is over charges leveled against Jeffs following the raid on his sect's compound in the small town of Eldorado in west-central Texas. A call to a domestic abuse hotline spurred the raid and resulted in the removal of more than 400 children from their homes on the ranch compound. That led to the current charges against Jeffs and 11 other FLDS men.
Jeffs' sect broke off from the mainstream Mormon Church 72 years ago, and has more than 10,000 followers who consider Jeffs a prophet who serves as God's spokesman on earth. Sect teachings emphasize polygamy as a key to exaltation in heaven, and Jeffs paired up women and girls with men on the compound in "spiritual marriages." The religion also teaches that young girls and women must be obedient to their husbands.
Jeffs is set to face a separate trial on a bigamy charge in October.
