Hey Cryptic folks:
You may need to consider putting an encyclopedic function in-game for players to access, both as a motivational and informational tool about the nuances of the game such as the Doff system, Crafting etc.

Like what Lt Laurel opens up for display on all the ships for you at her vendor at ESD Stardock but have this graphic honey pot readily accessible on the ui so everyone is one click away from really interesting and informative, motivaional eye candy! ^^

This kind of thing not only helps motivate and inform the seasoned players, its certainly would benefit the new and keep their play goals fresh. So bring on some decent eyecandy there for folks and you have halfway sold them a commitment to playing the game longer, more often and better too with less frustration.

It could include things like:

The full details of how to work the Doff system and its awards for each tier could be one page by page installment filled with decent graphics and info of what kind of wonderful rewards there are and how to go about getting there to obtain them.

The path to 2409 (yeah I know there is a History thing you got going on there at Academy but each component achieved from it could fill in a "sticker" book page of color, graphics and text to the story instead of sitting in an accolade box).

Have a medal rack for your accolades there with info on the benefits of achieving each accolade.

All in all you could call it something like The Captain's Log and he presto something really special for STO to help new and old alike! :)

LOTRO for example has a MyLotro which I imagine is a working example of the possibilities that help players out in a very informative and motivating way.
