Star Trek Online Reddit
Star Trek Online is the ongoing MMO from Cryptic Studios and has ties with the Reddit community, /r/STO. We talk with Cryptic Community Manager AmbassadorKael, /r/STO regular JRTD753, and /r/TrekRP moderator Pojodan about the game and the community centered around it. The Star Trek Online community is in uproar today after a popular subreddit was taken private by its mods in protest over problems with the game. Here’s the admin message on /r/stobuilds, a sub that helps players figure out how to build their toons, right now.

The Star Trek Online Gateway (or STO Gateway) was a means to remotely access Star Trek Online game information from one's desktop, tablet, or smartphone. It was publicly launched for the Tribble server on October 19, 2012 and to Holodeck on December 10, 2012. There were a number of additions planned for release in 2013. The STO Gateway was shut down on April 13, 2017.
