Starbase

If it is a fleet starbase, why is the only way to do a fleet starbase thing is to group up fleetmates and join a queue?

When the fleet starbase was being discussed, one of the things cryptic was going to do was
1) Have someone summon a fleet alert and it would show up in a UI to all online fleetmates and everyone who wanted to do it would join in.
2) You could have PVP at your starbase.

When starbases came out it was announced that those options hadn't been turned on yet but can "in a few weeks".

I don't know why the only starbase fight is a random starbase queue?
Should I start posting again after all this time?

    Its not truly random.
    The game picks a Starbase from one of the 5 queued players. If you join a queue alone, there is a 20% chance the StarBase being defended is yours.
    On the other hand, if you join a queue with 4 of your Fleet members, there is a 100% chance the StarBase being defended belongs to your Fleet.
    Cryptic set up a system that would allow all members of Fleets to participate, even if there were none, or few, of their Fleet members logged in.

    As for the PvP, I have no idea. I would imagine that PvP would need some work first.
