I'm still monitoring this as the info comes in, but wow. Sending prayers out, for sure. :(

AP is reporting 2 dead, 22 injured. Hopefully those numbers dosn't rise.

My heart goes out to those in the area...

Sending good thoughts to all those affected by this tragedy. ((hugs))

I am just outside of Boston, the marathon starts only 2 miles from my house.. I have so many friends in the city and several running the marathon.. Its really scary right now.

Sorry to hear that. I am glad you are okay. You and your friends will be in my thoughts. Be safe.

Just spoke to a friend of mine in Boston. This is a tragedy!

EDIT: Do we have any members in Boston?

I thought that old guy trying to get Clara to sing was a bit weird. His insistence on here singing "Hungry like the wolf" reminded me of Bad Wolf.

Looking forward to the continuation of the Saga!

I liked this episode better than the last as well. Yeah, it was faster paced, but I actually enjoyed that. The pacing was more consistent in this episode and it kept the tension up.

I think this episode actually benefited from being a one-off with no obligation to tell more about the Doctor or Clara. It was just a good romp where Clara got exposed to the more dangerous side of traveling with the Doctor.

It blows me away though that the Doctor STILL hasn't put some kind of remote control on the TARDIS...

The Intwined Saga will return after hiatus very soon. Please keep your eyes peeled for the next chapter returning to a Holodeck near you.

We are trying to fit the schedules around the average members play schedule as best as possible. Please vote to either keep the time at 5 PM EST on Saturday or select another option. You can also comment with ideas on scheduling if the options do not match your suggestions. It's important to show up for guild missions to gain rewards and guild merits to unlock additional mission types. We are current in the process of building the next tier which is guild treks.

Thanks guys!

I somewhat liked this weeks episode. Any time they bring a classic villain back I get weak in the knees. That being said, I thought the episode was too fast paced with not enough substance. The "bad guy" killed a bunch of people and the Doctor didn't seem to care. Which makes me kind of sad. We found nothing more out about Clara. How were they going to get to the South Pole? And for some reason I want to start singing "Hungry Like the Wolf". :-)

Aww... that sucks Gravitos. :( I did it four times now, two times with fleeties and two times in a PUG, but the beast went down pretty easily in all of them. But if everybody just warps out and leaves you there... that's bad.

*Here, have a cookie to make you feel better* :)

I've been meaning to play Mass Effect for some time. The big problem is that my TV is very small, and playing PS3 games on it is very rough because they're not optimized for an old CRT. I'll get a new TV whenever my ship comes in...

Tried it with a PUG before I went to work today.. UTTER DISASTER! Got it down to 20% and everyone freaked out when the next wave of Tholians appeared. They died and then quit. ugh!

I think this is a bit too easy now....Im expecting it to toughen up when the powers that be realise. PUGs have reported no problems so get in while you can.

That said it is FUN now...not the nightmare it was before

Hey, everyone! I figured I'd post here to say hey and hopefully meet new people.

I'm Adrien, and I live in New York City. I used to teach ESL in Japan, but after my last contract ended I returned home. I've been looking for work for several months, but so far nothing has panned out. I have a feeling this might change soon, but I don't want to go counting chickens before they hatch.

I'm in the process of going back to school to study Speech-Language Pathology. I'm most interested in speech disorders in bilinguals as well as transgender voice therapy. I'm really looking forward to starting school again this summer!

I don't have a lot of MMO experience. I played FFXI for about a month or two when it first came out. I have so far resisted my best friend's pleas to play WoW with her. I love Trek, so when I found myself jobless I figured I'd give STO a shot. It's been a lot of fun so far!

Most of my gaming experience has been with single-player RPGs like the Persona series, the Ultima series, and Planescape: Torment. I also enjoy forum-based and IM-based roleplaying. I used to LARP back in undergrad, and I've played a few pen-and-paper games but never had many good experiences with them.

Finally, I use gender-neutral pronouns (they/them/their) as I'm genderqueer.

Story is better on the imp side, best 2 are considered agent and inquisitor. As for single advancement, trooper/hunter knight/warrior are easiest. More fleets tend to play Republic.

I started an Imperial Inquisitor named Dravind.

Imp does have the better story lines. I've only got 2 Republic characters and 4 Imp characters all around lvl 40.

So I bought the expansion a few minutes ago and decided I'd better try it out again. I think I may delete my current toons and start fresh. Current toons are only level 11's and a few 2 or 3's.

Can anyone suggest which faction to play? I have played both in the past but want to settle on one going forward.

Also what about classes? Is any one class better at leveling So-Lo? It seems since I will be such a noob in the game that I will be solo for some time.

This is a sad day! I, too, enjoyed much of what the site gay.com used to offer. I hadn't logged on in some time and was shocked to see that it was not what it used to be!

I loved the idea that I could go to other states and talk with people that just wanted to talk as if I were not in the state, and they were aware of this, the chat would indeed be based on no other premises but the conversation itself!

Gay.com helped me to come out, too. I didn't know anything and was able to meet with people who to this day are some of my best friends. I started using gay.com in the late 90's.

I also know how important the site was for people dealing with specific issues to discuss them with others in specific chat rooms.

I will miss gay.com and what it used to be and what it did for me.
