    APOLOGIES
    • Saelanna
    • WelshAvenger


    FLEET ADMIRAL UPDATES/ANNOUNCEMENTS


    Divisional Updates

    Federation Executive Officers
    • Community Administration:
      • Last three months FAB has had to deal with a few moderation incidents. Other than that, FAB has been quietly working away.
      • Will look to release the UFP’s 2020 financial statement before the end of the year but will wait a little longer so it reflects the costs we will be incurring in the next week or two.
      • Looking to 2021, in relation to moderation, I have recently found that we can at times be slow to react and inconsistent. With that in mind, in order to formalise my powers in moderation, I have agreed that I will be taking more independent decision making, effectively being the sole person responsible for moderation, except for a small list of exceptions.
      • Will also look at the makeup of my moderation team, with an emphasis on building it up with CL4 members. Please let me know if you are interested.

    • Community Development:
      • SFA requires a new XO, advert for the post is in the usual place.
      • The screenshot competition has concluded and winners will be formally announced on the day of the UFPAC, giveaways are continuing smoothly.
      • Otherwise, roll on Christmas.

    • Community Gaming:
      • Jestersmith has been chosen as the replacement for Mack’s Old job. With the current state of STO we’re looking for more permanent avenues to increase the UFP’s presence in other games. We’re gunning for WoW atm.
      • Wish Jestersmith the best. As always I’m always about to help around STO Command / STO + looking forward to work with Bedders. We have Holodeck giveaway going around as well as. The story competition ends on 15th, so please give Petrarch, WelshAvenger or myself a heads up and high recommend to submit it already.
      • We are seriously gunning for WoW, so I really suggest if you played it previously or considering to play/join to do so. It’s a UFP guild and you will get all the amenities a UFP guild offers.

    • Community Technical Services & Security:
      • Server migration happening during the christmas weekend from the 26th to 27th. Servers will be unavailable at some point during this time.



    Starfleet Command
    • Star Trek Online:
      • Jestersmith was made the new SFO CO, after Mack moved on.
      • Pedgio will be made second Special Forces Commander, and Redshift
      • Will be a new Personal Officer and Solace is our new Quartermaster this will be Jestersmiths first official announcements. This will happen soon
      • Starfleet Operations:
        • Nothing recorded in minutes
      • House of Kular:
        • Nothing stands out since last time, generally quiet, the year of the klingon has been a letdown as its been a bit of klingon and alot of wallet grabbing fed ships

    • Starfleet Holodeck:
      • WoW raiding has started! As you can see from Teamspeak, it’s well attended.
      • To aid the above, Rattlehead has been brought onboard as a Raid Leader. We wish him all the best and I’m confident he will be brilliant.
      • Giveaway happened with a few games being raffled off, thanks to everyone who took part, and those who donated the games.
      • Check the Events calendar - there’s a lot on this week as we build up to the UFPAC.

    • ARES Roleplay:
      • Player audit complete, one person withdrew due to RL issues.
      • Player handbook updated for 2020
      • January will see players invited to discuss ideas for the next mission and a new Captain character as Asteropax is no longer with the UFP. Captain’s log posts will also start next month to try and encourage players into posting character development stories during a lull in the story.
      • Hunt for a new XO will be given some thought in the new year.

    • Federation News Service:
    • Starfleet Academy:
      • Search for a new XO has begun, accepting applications till 01 January 2021.
      • Currently doing the second review of Academy Exams.

    Will anything formal be posted on what this would entail? I may be interested, but I'd like to know a little more about the needs, expectations, etc.

    Update: Never mind, saw the position had been formally added to the volunteer role page.

    Redshift is indeed correct, he's the new personnel officer in STO.

    Now, perhaps he does indeed wear a red shirt too, but I'm sure we can keep him out of harm's way for a few episodes at least.

    Now, perhaps he does indeed wear a red shirt too, but I'm sure we can keep him out of harm's way for a few episodes at least.
    So it means he's moving away from us at great speed? Or that he's an Amazon liaison?
