With the new season 10 coming and the new fleet ships being released I just had to ask... I bought some ships and they are turning fleet version soon and my fleet isn't high enough yet for me to even purchase them. My question is how would I go about getting a hold of them?
I am sure I would have to leave my fleet for a short time but I heard from someone you have to wait a couple weeks before you can purchase the ships or something...

Hiya.
If you would like to buy a fleet ship, and your current fleet is not high tier enough for the one you want, you would need to follow these steps:
1) Make sure you have enough fleet credits and fleet ship modules to afford the ship you want.
2) Make arrangements in advance with somone in your current fleet to reinvite you after all this is done
3) Leave your fleet temporarily
4) Ask in nop public service channel for an invite to a Tier X shipyard to buy an X ship
5) Wait for someone to invite you. Sometimes it will take a while for somone who is able to do this to come on. All such invites are completely free - you do not need to contribute anything to their fleet/wait any probation period.
6) Once in their fleet, go to the Fleet Starbase and buy the ship you want.
7) Say thanks to the person that invited you, and leave their fleet, returning to your old one
8) Enjoy your shiny new ship
The channel is easy to join/use, but if you have any difficulty please don't hesitate to contact me in game (same @handle) and I can arrange whatever invite you need.
Thanks for the quick response I appreciate it. Good to know it's not as hard as I was told and yes I already have the channel added and joined so I've been watching people type in there to get a handle on how to type this stuff. Very nice to know that there is a channel like this out there. More people should know!
Without resorting to a long rant that nobody gives a TRIBBLE about:
The management do not even warn you if you break a rule unintentionally, and just kick you (and expect you to know what you did), therefore I cannot recommend their channel.
(What if someone is unaware they're breaking a rule, or their interpretation of the rules is different? What if someone needs a little clarification?)
The management style is very heavy-handed and anal-retentive.
(It doesn't take but a few seconds to personally contact someone and warn them, now does it? It's called people skills.)
I've known fleets that were like this, sadly to say.
I suggest others look elsewhere for their fleet needs.
^^ I'm hearing the petty sound of an axe grinding.
NoP is a great service! Some people say it's a Dental scam, or other folks with equally sinister motives, but the Truth is that NoP has never been but consisting of the most genuinely friendly, helpful people in STO. I used their channel a lot for Cell ship access.
I dunno STO politics (primarily, really, because I don't care to know). But I know NoP is legit, and I have nothing but positive to say about it.
The FED Fleet, Kights of Nimbus III will be providing 40 free Fleet Ship provisions in NoP Public service after the update, in support of this wonderful channel.
The sound of an axe grinding, yes but I have better things to do...
I wouldn't call it "petty", however. That's where we disagree. That's like saying I have no basis for complaint whatsoever.
I also sang their praises far and wide, up until now. I really liked the channel and what they stood for.
But it doesn't take long before you see people's true colours.......
Whatever though. It is what it is. Nothing will be accomplished by repeatedly bashing my head against a wall, now will it?
I have no quarrel with anyone who uses this channel. However, I will not be one of them.
That's all I have to say, there's no point continuing this.
Hey,
First off, to second Lago, NoP has one rule, you broke it.
Also, I know for a fact that you were warned about it, multiple times in fact, over several days.
You chose to ignore it, and override previous kicks afterwards, because it just did not suit you that you might be at fault for your own attitudes and actions and clearly deserve special treatment.
I have also seen myself, and heard from others, that you tend to just be a complete child while doing things like Defera runs, throwing fits over every little thing that you cannot either control or dictate.
While I admit that spamming the mod who kicked you this time (I know at least 2 others have previously, myself included, after you ignored warnings) with 4 mails in rapid succession (a few minutes apart) trying tactics ranging from guilting,denying, apologetic begging,to throwing a hissy fit, is absolutely hillarious, it sort of tells people everything they need to know about this situation.
My advice: Grow up. Read the rules. Listen to warnings. Deal with personal responsibility. Get over yourself.
Should you master the above, feel free to come back to the channel.

It's really nice seeing others do whatever they can for the community alongside us. Thank you kindly from NoP/SFD.
"Seriously dude", all you needed to do was talk to me. It's called people skills. Look them up sometime.
You'd be surprised what being nice and not uptight can accomplish.
PS: There are two rules, actually. Now who's wrong?
I do not care. I'm not arguing this with you.
If you had spoken to me in the first place, we wouldn't be having this lovely conversation.
(Like I said, sometimes people genuinely don't know they're breaking a rule.)
I'd rather be somewhere less stressful where people are kinder, and oh look, I've already found a place.
So your point is moot. If this is the way you treat people, I want no part of it, so is there a point to arguing? No.
I'm not the only one in the wrong here. You just refuse to understand that you're also wrong.
(I love people who think they're always right. There's just no talking sense to them. It's everyone else who's wrong.)
Have a lovely day.
To put it into context for everyone: You had one of your hissyfits in the presence of a mod. When he asked someone in the group to do something, which wasn't even directed at you, you instantly accused the group members of ganging up on you. You placed them all on ignore, and kept PMing them with rage tells.
This this is not the type of people that we desire to have in NoP Public Service channel. You may be allowed back if you change your attitude. However in your case you appear to be very self-absorbed, so I very much doubt this will happen.
Perhaps the lesson you will learn here is that you should always treat everyone with courtesy and respect, because you never know who you will come across.
Edit: There are very few people who have gotten banned for their extremely poor attitudes and generally childish behavior. This is something that is considered and discussed very carefully before taking any action. So you should understand just how terrible your conduct really was to have earned something like this.
I'm curious, and I want to ask now before I try and do so:
What's the channel's policy on anyone providing crafting services? Of course no payments like anything else. But I can't really afford to 'give away' things. As in, I'd ask for people to provide whatever materials are needed for whatever they are wanting me to make, as buying it would get very expensive, and I simply don't have that amount of resources to spare.
Would that still be too far, too against what the channel is about? I use that above with my fleet: They provide me whatever is needed for whatever is they want, and in turn I make it and send it back to them.
I understand that such a system has no end of potential abuses. That's why I want to ask and make sure right now, so there's no confusion. I mean, just in the fact that you can't guarantee what mods or rarity an item is already leads to a potential for abuse, let alone many other things that could be abused in this.
As another note: My fleet can also provide everything Fed-side, having a fully finished Fed base. I can't promise always being on or anything, but I will do what I can.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
1) No buying, selling or trading.
Breaking this rule, even once will earn you a mute and a kick. A warning may be issued instead at the channel moderators sole discretion. When we say "one rule" this is the one we mean.
2) Be polite.
This rule by it's very nature is a bit subjective. Violations are almost entirely handled by issuing a polite warning. Mutes may be issued if said warning is ignored.
Other guidelines:
If you break a rule and get called out on it simply apologize and stop breaking the rules. This will save you from moderation an overwhelming majority of the time. Do not double down. Do not try to lawyer.
Do not accuse the person calling you out of pretending to be a moderator. Any channel user that sees someone breaking the rules is allowed to call them out on it.
Don't try to get cute about rule 1. Using weasel words like "tip", "donations", etc to pretend you are not flagrantly violating rule 1 all but ensures that the channel moderators will forgo any kind of warning.
after talking with a few t5 fleets today, its pretty clear that, in the event of another two-track holding (like the embassy, mine, and spire), we will be dividing our efforts. we will pulling out all the stops and maxing tracks as fast as humanly possible. so if youre in a fleet that you think might take a while to finish up, urge your fleet leaders to prioritise provisions!

considering that the shortlived 'public service' channel had a featured blog, and the fact that this isnt a fleet channel, no.

Though if it helps I ask that anyone using the NoP remember this simple little trick.
NoP stands for both the name of the fleet/channel (Nerds of Prey) as well as the one rule, namely No one Profits.
If you are trying to make any personal gain on the channel, you'll get a warning, then you get das boot.
And a merry freaking Christmas to you too, Ebenezer.
