That awkward moment when...

1. You buy a new Cstore ship.
2. You strip it of all of its original equipment, then install just an impulse engine with the intent to bring it to Memory Alpha to craft new equipment for it.
3. Along the way you see a Borg Alert and respond to it... only to realize you're completely unarmed and get blown up in your shiny new ship...

Yep... I've done this more than once...

...when you're trying to google Photonic Shockwave builds (a la "STO PSW",) and instead spend hours reading about the PSW.generic2.STO virus, because you're just nerdy like that.

...when you get all of your boffs spiffy in new costumes, but since you only have 3 of each kind and not 4, you get some no-name troll crew member on your bridge in the standard uniform just mocking you and your hard-earned, creative costumes.

...when you realize you might just be projecting your own issues onto STO.

...when you get the entire crystalline shell set in a matter of hours, and as you're equipping each piece, you lament the broken and failed attempt at a maco set that's been "a work in progress" for months.

Between birth and death.
My name may say "PWE member", but I will never be. -NEVER Forget the Screwups and ignorance made towards the people who supported the game through 2011
Don't look silly, don't call it "Zen-Store" - I would have used the 1000 Day forum title, but since everyone and their mother can now, I won't.

Ever the optimist! I can reassure you that as you get older it stops being awkward, and instead becomes really, really uncomfortable.

...when your fleet is full steam ahead with the starbase, but you can't contribute because someone called in sick at work and you have to cover.

...when you come to the forums for information on that exciting new BOFF ability you picked up, but instead just get bummed out by reading a "Doom!!! Cryptic is da Debil!!! eleventy-one" thread and do something else instead.

...when you're feeling great about how well you're healing the civillian freighter in "No Win Scenario," others compliment you on it, and only then you realize that no one's healing you this wave and you're about to die.

...When you accidentally walk into PvE with an EV Suit on.

...When you take so long to respawn even after the respond timer because you have to change the camera focus.

When you realise that Starbases is just a resource sink with little benefit ... and you hurry to throw your resources at it .... but it's all full.

... That awkward moment...

When you're parlaying with the Klingon commander of the ship you're opposing and he's on your viewscreen...

and you don't want to tell him his fly is open...
