ah right sweet, if it becomes official will that mean our own characters will sport the colors or is it like the guild tabbard in WOW, where a small nominal fee will buy us the outfit
Not actually sure. I think it might use up the actual fleet outfit slot that you get when you join a fleet. It should be free since that slot itself you get is free.

@Hero_Swe: how do you get the uniform? or is that just custom gear?
For now it's custom gear, until Legend promotes me or makes the uniform official and fixes the ranks :P
I'm far too lazy to do all this hard work! :) Are you online now, Hero?
Going online now :P

I too am wanting to joining the fleet. Akyho@Akyho55
Error inviting to fleet, make sure that it is your character@handle
I will be off STO for today, If anybody else wants to be invited send a friend request to either Garrin@SamuraiGarrin or Kringle@Zombienutz
I will be on later tonight (around 11 pm est.), so feel free to friend me (Kringle@Zombienutz0). I can toss anyone an invite needing one. Also, congrats to @Hero_Swe on the promotion.
@Legend: @Hero_Swe: Heyo, glad to see some more activity in the forums! :)
I got an invite no problem once people came back during the F2P livestream, but ever since then I'm still at Softshell. Sent a note to Jeff about helping out, but they're drowning in PMs and he was deep into the Trackmania server... Would appreciate a bump to a regular member who can invite, and once classes calm down a little I'll be on more often to level up this new F2P character (Wox@Brackynews). He's a dapper and spindly fellow.
In my main's fleet (Proteus) I am a rank 5 officer responsible for banking and crafting, so I've been spending most of my game time there being useful. ;) The fleet leader would be happy to vouch for me if that's of any benefit later on. Cheers.
Will send an invite right as the patching finishes and then I'll go to bed. 5:00 am here :P
EDIT: Found and bumped up Wox. You can now invite. Tried sending invite to Proteus@Brackynews but it didn't work. Sorry @Brackynews
How active is the fleet? I am thinking I'll ditch the crew I am with at the moment. I have been with em for about a year but it's turning into a troll-fest.
I've always seen at least 3 to 4 people online whenever I log in. I was playing a few minutes ago and decided to turn it off after I kept getting killed in the Sharien's Swords mission. That damn I.R.W Esemar keeps killing me with it's Super Torpedo combo >_<
After I was done with the ground mission on the station I thought it would be easy, but man, I must've died 7 times by that thing. No matter how much I widdle it down it'll do that tractor beam/shield drain thing and then demolish me with those three torpedoes. It's frustrating when the auto-attack doesn't let me attack the incoming torpedoes because it's still attacking the ship.
Could I get a fleet invite? Welshy@clevver (that's two v's, btw). I've been getting way into this game for some reason and I want to see if we can get a starbase rolling.
Any officer lobsters still playing relatively regularly? My wife and I want to start doing stuff with the starbase, but, as Softshells, all we can do is stand in the main concourse and admire the view. :) (I'm Buzzkill Hanrow, and she's Cameron.)
How is the new fleet stuff? I haven't played since any of the season 6 stuff was added, but I might be convinced to finally join a fleet if there's actually some purpose to it now.
I was reading the official forums, but they seem to do nothing but complain about lock boxes over there.
So I heard through the grapevine that someone had stolen everything from the fleet bank and the fleet has broken up. Is that true?
@Arrested_Developer: My wife's online now, and there's still a fleet and there's still stuff in the fleet bank. I haven't been able to reach an officer though since we were invited in a couple of weeks ago.
@Mageknight: @Otogi: If you have not already been invited, I will do so shortly. :)
@Arrested_Developer: I never saw anything happen when it happened, but Cryptic has been really good about restoring banks, due to the account hacking by gold farmers. I don't know if that's actually what happened in SNL's case with "Mike" but I do know there are fleet leaders who had their accounts hacked and everything stolen. With the new security it shouldn't be as much of an risk. Without knowing the situation, I think any 2010-2011 massive theft should be given the benefit of the doubt; hacking was rampant and Cryptic was clueless.
@WinterSnowblind: I like it. They launched the season broken of course, but it's looking better now. Give it 2-3 more months. lol "Purpose" is relative, it's a resource sink, so you need to want the benefits that a starbase will offer, which will not be superior to DS9 or ESD. The way the system is designed, it is entirely possible to fleet hop to buy higher tier items.
@Arrested_Developer: Got you.
@ZagZagovich: Don't have your character name! Need the full thing. But I do have you on my Steam list, so catch you sometime.
@NakAttack: @kristov_romanov: Sup duders, thanks for posting the notes here, I saw 'em. Sorry for the absence. I promoted a couple people up so they could manage projects as well. Just can't log in as regularly while I'm swamped.
Also great job with the push at finishing projects. Totally threw off my estimates. ;)
Just a note that the Season 7 Tribble test weekend is on now. Looks like they're just asking for 1 hour spent? Good because that's about all I have. lol
Is anyone else getting into the Winter Wonderland stuff this year? I am, they have added a fair bit more than last year. Plus.... BREEN SHIPS!!!!! THEY BE FREE!!!!
Sorry to be away. Just too busy, and trying to give my SWTOR characters a little more love (meaning ~5 hours a month instead of 0 ;).
Last time I was on, Hero was a bit more active. If y'all need something I always check my user profile wall ahead of any inbox @mentions.
Is this still a thing? Me and a friend started playing Star Trek Online a couple of days ago and would love to join you guys. Invite me - kallekovacs@mordecai :D
@nasos100: We still have our main starbase grinder, and a few folks here and there. Me, I just popped in to get my 3-year anniversary ships. Have a bit of time now that it's uni break week and I'm not travelling.
@fruitcocoa: If you're not already in a fleet, I will invite you. Should be a pop-up window right after you log in, so don't decline it. ;)
Edit: Game isn't recognising the userid you gave. Feel free to send anyone who's online in the fleet a PM for an invite.
So does the crew still exist? I logged in and wasn't a part of it any more, and I couldn't find it in the fleet search, but I seem to remember that thing never really worked that well.
@michaelbach: @heavyduty32: Sorry to have missed your posts until now. If you're not already invited since you posted, just send a note to me in game, or PM your character@account name on my wall here. The fleet finder *should* work, but you're right it's fussy.
Any further requests or inquiries to join GB's STO crew should go in this newer thread. Thanks!
