As I said in another post somewhere lost in the forums, I'm updating old information on the UFS main website. The STO fleet page shows old information and needs to be updated so I needed the new information. Thanks.Wolfton Foulsbane wrote:I am the new Commander. Is there anything I can help with?

Very good. Also, Tranquility needs an update as I am no longer the CO there. Captain Shran ((Jamie.Czavicevic)) assumed command on Sunday.
I have made many changes to the Fleet Ranks in STO and I want to take a moment to explain them to you. The STO Fleet is like many other guilds in Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) games in the wild. It allows the members to be affiliated with one another without all having to be logged in at the same time. We become, much like the main United Federation Starfleet groups in each grid such as Second Life, 3rd Rock Grid, and New Bineland Grid. The United Federation Starfleet group (Fleet) in Star Trek Online is roughly equal to the main groups in each of those grids, in that it is a place to belong, to log in, and to interact with one another. Unlike those other grids, however, we are not (yet) a Colony. We are a Ship of the Line called Starbase One, like the USS Taylorholic Durant, USS Protector, or SS Tranquility. You can even transfer to Starbase One just like any other ship.
But you do not have to be assigned to Starbase One to be in the STO Fleet, contribute to the Fleet's Holdings, and benefit from such contributions. You may join the fleet as a Cadet - anyone - including Cadets - can invite members to the STO Fleet. Members above certain ranks can even promote people within the STO Fleet in order to unlock certain abilities. I have included a list of these ranks, their explanations, and their privileges below.
These are not set in stone. As we grow and learn what works best for UFS as a whole and for the Starbase One Crew, we will make changes to this if needed. Some of you need to be promoted/demoted to your proper ranks so please allow me a week to get that sorted.
Rank 7 - Commander Starbase One
This is for Fleet Admiral Mike Calhoun, his designees, and whomever the Joint Chiefs of Staff appoint as the actual Commander of Starbsae One.
Currently, Captain Will Thrasher ((Wolfton Foulsbane on Second Life/3rd Rock Grid/New Vineland Grid or Wolfton@Wolfton on any Perfect World/Cryptic Studios game))
These are the Joint Chiefs in UFS - no matter which sector/grid. This group here serves to help identify your Joint Chiefs when they are on, but also serves to allow them to promote/demote the Commander Starbase One, as appropriate.
These personnel are those who have stepped up to the plate and are the lead coordinators for a specific Fleet Holding, such as the Dilithium Mine, Spire (Solonae Dyson Sphere), Research Lab, or Embassy. They will coordinate the
These are the members who are assigned to Starbase One as a Ship of the Line - like those assigned to Starbase Tranquility, Starbase Astraios, or USS Davy-Crockett. To be Rank 4 - Starbase One Assigned Crew, the character cannot be assigned to any other ships or stations in UFS. The character must at least be a graduate of the UFS Academy and is also expected to participate in our scheduled role-play events and/or events. These are the personnel for whom the Commander Starbase One (Captain Will Thrasher ((Wolfton Foulsbane)) and/or First Officer Starbase One (Lieutenant John Aries ((Grooveshark101 Resident)) will submit promotions and awards requests based upon event participation and contributions to the Fleet Holdings.
This is a member of UFS who, like a Rank 2 Alt, is verified in the UFS Database, but this character is their main (or sometimes only) character associated with their database name. As with Alts, we can trace your contributions to your UFS Database character name if you wish to earn the awards and credit for promotion Admiral Mistwallow spoke of when he was Commander Starbase One. An easy way to help with this is to write it in your comments. We will see it there, and put it in Officer Comments, which only Starbase One Crew and above can see. If you wish for an Alt to be registered in this way but do not wish for everyone to know who that alt is tied to, just email a crew member, Task Force Commander, Joint Chief, or Commander Starbase One and we will let you know when it is logged. These are the personnel for whom the Commander Starbase One (Captain Will Thrasher ((Wolfton Foulsbane)) and/or First Officer Starbase One (Lieutenant John Aries ((Grooveshark101 Resident)) will submit awards requests based on event participation and contributions to the Fleet Holdings.
An alt is one who is verified as a member of UFS in the UFS Database and has already graduated the academy but is not using their main STO character. This is not the same as an alt in SL. Alts may contribute and buy from the Fleet Bank, but unless we can trace your contributions to your UFS Database character name if you wish to earn the awards and credit for promotion Admiral Mistwallow spoke of when he was Commander Starbase One.

A Cadet here is one who is a cadet in any sector of UFS. To be promoted out of this rank, you MUST graduate from any one of the UFS Academy Campuses, whether in the UFS Database, Second Life, 3rd Rock Grid, New Vineland Grid, etc. We are looking into options to have an Academy Campus in STO, but that is a long way out - if it is even deemed feasible.

Just to make a minor clarification, we do not currently have a TOS Fleet. You can play Agents of Yesterday in either the 23rd or 25th Centuries. But our fleet (Starbase One) is bound to the 25th Century incarnation.

You don't need a TOS fleet...When you hit Level 10 on your AoY char, they become temporal agents and then you can join the fleet. Just hit level 10 with my AoY char and she became a Temporal Agent. Sent myself an invite and got it. Just in case anyone else is trying to figure out how to get their Temporal Agent to trigger, you have to work through the starter missions on the AoY story arc.

They weren't very clear about the whole thing. I had given up on creating the Temporal Agent and then hit level 10 on my AoY char...figured it out then. YwWolfton Foulsbane wrote:Thank you for explaining that.

During a meeting with the Joint Chiefs we discussed the name of SS-001, Starbase One and the JCs decided we should rename to SS-389, Starbase Yelchin. Additionally, the colony is the Aldebaran Colony, named for the sector in which Starbasee Yelchin is stationed. The registry number SS-389 comes from March , 1989 - the month and year Mr. Yelchin was born.
Another item discussed was others starting Ships of the Line in STO. I am working on a guide, but if anyone is Interested, please let me know so that we can discuss requirements.
