Line 9:
* [[Broken Base]]: Rifts have formed over whether it's a credible addition to the [[Star Trek]] universe, or simply a flash in the pan and not long for this world. Rifts have formed within the game as vocal Klingon players clamour for content, among other issues. Basically it's the same as any other MMO.
** The Lockboxes and their related Shop Items, the Master Keys. It's basically a lottery, where you recieve random loot whenever you open a box, ranging from awesome rewards (Cardassian Galor or Ferengi Marauder Starships) to near useless Junk. Most people seem to consider it a blantant rip-off, while others scramble for the shops to purchase Master Keys by the crapload. Discussion over that matter can turn very heated in short time.
** The first has, obviously, long since been proven untrue (the game's on five years and counting, pretty respectable for any MMO), the Klingon faction has gotten a complete overhaul and is now just as story-based and filled-out as the Federation (if not quite as wealthy in ships, but it's close), and the lockboxes are generally just sort of regarded as another part of the game. (It probably helps that those who don't like them can always just sell them on the Exchange and get energy credits for them, meaning that you can get something out of them without spending any zen.)
* [[Complete Monster]]: A couple here and there:
** Most minions of {{spoiler|the Iconians}} are [[Brainwashed and Crazy]], or at least implied to be. Colonel Hakeev of the Tal Shiar, [[Big Bad]] of the 'Cloaked Intentions' series, signed up with them of his own free will because he thought that exterminating and enslaving the 'lesser races' at his 'Dark Masters'' side sounded really, really awesome. Then he made a start on the Remans, and the rest was history.
