Star Trek Online DIVISION
&
STAFF TEAM

The purpose of this thread is to explain the hierarchy, responsibilities, and structure of the STO Staff team. This thread has been created to help educate those interested as to how we operate. As many of you may already know, sometime in 2017 the divisions of SFO & HoK were merged to create the Star Trek Online Division. After Delta Rising expansion things had changed and it was time to make changes on a community level along with it. Many other internal changes were also made within the staff team ranks, hierarchy, and operations since then which significantly set the division apart from how it previously operated. This change helped continue the enthusiasm for Star Trek Online as a whole to date.

Division Command
STO Commanding Officer (CO) : Novalance - @aipomdude
STO Executive Officer (XO - STO Fleet Operations) : Morris @Captain Morris
STO Executive Officer (XO - STO Fleet Operations) : Jestersmith - @generaljester
STO Executive Officer (XO - Armada Operations) : Bill - @drbillmd

STO Command team directly oversees and administrates operations of the division and the staff team. Feel free to approach anyone from the STO Command Team regarding your STO experience in the UFP or to discuss any issues. Sharing experiences and feedback always helps.

The STO Command Team report directly to the Head of Community Gaming & Deputy Head of Community Gaming.

Quartermasters
Sul-Mutuul - @lordsteve1
MrNeal89 - @mrneal#1113

Quartermasters are the senior staff of the STO Staff Team who are entrusted with managing the fleet bank, fleet funds, and the fleet shop. They keep STO Command apprised and up to date, while also being mentors for the new staff members and setting them up with relevant access. They are also responsible for slotting UFP Asset projects in a timely fashion. Finally, internally they mentor and assist Personnel Officers with processing invites and promotions while also providing insight to the Command Team.

You may contact the Quartermasters regarding fleet bank, fleet shop, and project slotting.

UFP Assets consist of UFP 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5th Fleets along with The House of Kular, Taku, and Metak all other Armada affiliates are not considered fleet Assets and do not fall under our remit of control.

Special OPS Commander
Miles - @aldea#1478
Rastilion - @rastilion
Remsus - @karsten2013
jammers195 - @jammers19

Special OPS Commander rank is a re-brand of the Event Officers staff rank, along with some changes and a new communication interaction focus. This staff rank helps run all Special Operations activities of the Star Trek Online division and monitor the activity of Special OPS Veterans / Order of Kahless. Special Operations are anything related to STO events, be it themed events, ad-hoc events, weekly events, forum events, or CL3 hosted events! The mission of the Commander is to coordinate & execute all these activities to drive community engagement and make sure everyone playing STO is always involved. New Special OPS Veterans are selected by STO Command when advised by the Special Forces Commander. Everyone is invited to attend these events (and to host more events even as a CL3). Should you also choose to build interest and advance your knowledge in the game and builds - the Special OPS Veterans will help you with the same.

Special OPS Commander reports directly to the SFO Commanding Officer & HoK General from STO Command Team.

You may contact Jestersmith, Novalance, or Morris regarding STO events and activities. Be it ideas or willingness to host events.

Personnel Officer
Brunocsf - @benvindo
T'Tan - @tytan47
Sythe - @sytheeverblade
Remsus - @karsten2013

Stormy - @stormymaverick

Personnel Officers help manage the fleet rosters for invites and promotions. More than that, they are always around to help around be it on the forums or in-game chat.

You may contact the Personnel Officers for assistance regarding fleet invites, promotions, or questions you may have!

While each staff rank has a specific role, we all operate as one team and help each other where we can. Every current and past staff member holds credit for the smooth operations of this division.
