The VKF is recruiting Vulcans and other races who use cold logic, insightful analysis, and superior intellect to defeat our enemies, protect the Federation, and support our fellow Fleet-mates. If you desire to belong to a formidable force in STO, join the VKF! If you wish to belong to a Fleet that actively allies with other Federation forces, come to the VKF. If you wish to have Fleet-mates who will help you in-game and offline, who will watch your back and be there in the crunch, and who will share their knowledge with you (as you will too), then the VKF is your Fleet!
Visit
www.vulcankolinahrfleet.com and open hailing frequencies. To our friends, allies, and Fleet-mates, we say Live Long and Prosper. To our enemies, know that we will Live Long and Subdue.
From Fleet Admiral Kuhr:
The year is 2409. You will be entering a hostile time in Federation history. The Course is set. War is the answer for our time! This is taken from "Episode Missions Explained" and I do quote:
"As the story develops, the stakes increase. While Episodes later in the game don't take longer in terms of time or the number of in-game objectives, plot itself accelerates to a dramatic pitch. The threats you'll face are as great as any you've seen in the Star Trek movies. That's not to say early missions are anything to scoff at, however; the early Episodes are designed to be intriguing and dangerous, too.
The Episodes are based on conflict, much like the main storylines in the Star Trek franchise. Conflict drives drama - will your negotiations with the captain of a Klingon Bird of Prey break down and come to blows? How far do you need to go to apprehend a spy on another vessel? 2409 is a time of war, which means even the most resolute captains will need to make tough choices and come to blows to ensure the survival of their faction.
We do, however, want to make the battles you fight believable. You can make diplomatic overtures toward characters in Episodes, but on the front lines it's very rare to avoid confrontation when dramatic forces have guided you into hostile territory with combat-ready antagonists nearby. While there are missions in Star Trek Online that don't feature combat at all, Episodes will by and large demand your abilities as a tactician be put into play."
Even if your by nature a peacful race, you will be engaged in this time period. Their is no neutral ground. You must choose your destiny. VKF is seeking Vulcans who wish to engage their true essence in their blood. To be the best in the sciences, research and War! We need Vulcans who do not fear the edge or the unknown. Logic dictates what action we must chose....VKF choses aggression. Many say we Vulcans are peacful. That we are weak. To much into our logic and beliefs. A change has come. VKF, an all Vulcan Fleet will specialize in Universal Warfare! Total Domination! Complete Annihilation of the Klingons dungy Houses that fester the known Quadrants of Space! Who wish to join VKF on this Epic Journey into a new era of Enlightenment? VKF is organizing the greatest Vulcan Fleet known to VULCAN! Brothers! Will you be part of this? VKF doors are open! At this time, other species may join us! Its up to YOU! Come! My Brothers! Go through this door which is open to you and take hold of your true DESTINY!

Some info to help you decide:
We are medium RP. We respect RL considerations and don't enforce constant group activity. We only require that you provide valuable contributions to the Fleet, in terms of information on gameplay, career progression, mission tips, resource hints, and any other information that you or any other Fleet member would find useful and helpful. Your Fleet-mates will help you with everything from basic concepts to complex tactics and battle strategy, to help you progress in the game and have a thoroughly enjoyable and enriched in-game experience.
We are worldwide and have players in many timezones. We actively pursue alliances with other Federation Fleets. Plus, we all game at varying schedules, so there's always a fleet member (or ally) available to team with in-game.
Our Fleet is organized for matrix management:
We have Four Wings:
Fleet Matters Wing
Administrative Wing
PvP Wing
PvE Wing
Our Fleet is headed by our Fleet Admiral, Sybok Kuhr.
Our Fleet Matters Wing is headed by our Fleet Admiral and is where we discuss game strategy and tactics, as well as internal Fleet Management and Leadership.
Our Administrative Wing is headed by our Fleet XO, and is where we discuss issues such as career progression, recruiting, foreign relations (including alliances with other Fleets), Intelligence, Fleet Forum management, and Supply.
Our PvP Wing is where our Battle Group Commanders and Strike Team leaders and Fleet members discuss PvP activity.
Our PvE Wing is where our Task Force Commanders and Patrol Team Leaders and Fleet members discuss PvE activity.
For most Fleet members, you will report to the officer in charge of your career field, plus the officer in charge of your PvP group, and the officer in charge of your PvE group. This matrix management is set up to help you progress in your career field, and enrich your in-game experiences in both PvP and PvE. Fleet members can choose whether to focus on PvP or PvE, or work both. Our PvP and PvE Wings are primarily for in-game activity, but you'll find lots of good information on their forums that can help you whether you are in group play or playing solo.
Fleet members can also rely on the officers of the Administrative Wing to assist them with all aspects of STO. You'll get good intel from the Chief Intelligence Officer, access to the Fleet Bank and lots of game resources from the Chief Supply Officer, and of course elp with your career field progression from your Chief Engineering Officer, Chief Science Officer, or Chief Tactical Officer.
We hope this information helps you to decide that the VKF is right for you. Visit www.vulcankolinahrfleet.com today!
Thank you Subcommander! We are hearkening back to Vulcan's ancient days, when our race was more like Earth's ancient Spartan civilization structure. We are readying a new Fleet forum, and will be working our alliances to help enrich all our in-game experiences.
Live Long and Prosper cousin!
Visit us at www.vulcankolinahrfleet.com and see a formidable force in 2409 - join us as we take shape in the sectors of STO. Live Long and Prosper!
I'm looking forward to meeting the rest of the fleet in game today. Let's hope the login ques are not too insane. (And if they are, I guess I can always try to finish "Dragon Age" while I'm waiting.}
Valrek
PS: I thought I read that fleets can build their own Starbase?
We will be building our Fleet starbase at some time in the near future, that's still a game mechanic to be worked out. If you find any good intel on that, please post in our forum so everyone can benefit, thanks!
For folks looking for a Fleet to join, consider the VKF! Read a few posts here, or pose some questions and we'll answer 'em. We're not large, but are growing fast - there are leadership positions if you want that, or just mates to team with in STO - we aim to have the Fleet be what you want (not the other way around).
We don't require much from our members, just some participation (on your terms, not ours), and sharing of knowledge in all things STO or Fleet-related. We are readying a new, better organized Fleet forum and will unveil it soon - to help you find the info and intel you want and need, quickly and without having to spend a lot of time reading posts. The VKF exists to enrich the in-game experience of our members. We are logical, analytical, and have superior intellect (imho). We don't camp, grief, kill steal, or do anything that would diminish the experience of any STO player. We are honorable and will defend the Federation and the highest ideals of the ST genre, this MMO, and fun gameplay for everyone. That includes engaging in glorious PvP battles with enemies, to the mutual enjoyment of all.
To our members, our allies and our friends (and any Federation player), we say Live Long and Prosper! To our enemies, enemies of our allies, and anyone who wants to diminish another's in-game experience, we say Live Long and Subdue!
If you are looking for a Fleet, look to the VKF - our goal is to enrich the in-game experience of our members by providing mates to work with in-mission, good intel on game mechanics, mission tips, and locations of good resources, an in-game Fleet Bank were you can upgrade your weaponry, defenses, kits, etc. (and donate your old stuff to new members), and much more!
The VKF answers all Federation hails, and will team with our allies to help each other get the most from each mission or battle. Join the VKF and see the galaxy!

The Fleet old website will be shuting down as soon as the transition is done and will be put into the Archieves. Any further questions please Contact Commander Keysailor.

Fleet Admiral Kuhr V'las Sybok Kuhr

Good to see you makeing Commander! Did you get promoted to Captain yet in STO?
I've been leisurely making my way to Lt. Cmdr., ran a few early missions a 2nd time with new fleet members, and am almost ready to trade in my Constitution-Class for a new ship - but I'll miss it! Have collected a few Mark IV items to start my new rank off right (hopefully).

Do you want a rich experience in-game?
Do you want to fast-track your character, and find resources quickly?
Do you want to know what traits, skills and equipment are best for your character/career?
Part of our Fleet's pre-Launch activities was to plow through the mass of information on this forum, released by Cryptic, and available elsewhere. We culled the important information to create tight and informative game guide info and tips for each profession. It can take you many hours to go through everything on STO, trying to extract fact from conjecture. Let our forum at http://vulcankolinahrfleet.com help you zero in on exactly what you need to advance quickly in STO. Of course, you must be a Fleet member to see this!
We are actively recruiting for like-minded individuals who crave the positive aspects of collaborative gameplay. We have a Ventrilo server in place, our members are world-wide, and you will always have a Fleet member available somewhere for support and group efforts. In group work, our Fleet coordination will be unparalleled, and we will decimate our enemies with dispatch. We will explore and discover everything STO has to offer, and share our findings with our Fleet members so all are enriched.
Join us and move into 2409 armed with the best intel, the most specific and targeted body of knowledge about STO, and a group of Fleet-mates who will be there with you in the crunch. Live Long and Prosper!

________________________________________
Our comrade and Fleet-mate, Weed743 has passed away, and we will observe a moment of silence during his funeral. Weed743 was our Chief Tactical Officer, and joined the VKF in June of 2009.
The funeral wil be held on the Gold Coast of Australia at 8AM AEST (GMT+10). At that time, wherever we are, we will all cease our activities and spend a moment reflecting on his life, his passing, and the meaning of existance. HIs brother advises that bagpipes will be playing at the funeral in honor of his Scottish heritage.
Weed743 spent some of his last hours in STO open beta, and also helping us build the Fleet beforehand. His RL brother said that he constantly told him "its better to burn out then to fade away" and that Weed743 lived and died by this philosophy. HIs brother has asked us to please help to keep his memory alive . We shall do so.
To ensure our tribute is timely, please note that 8am on the 26th in GMT+10 is 10pm the night before in London (GMT-0)
For the benefit of our Fleet and STO, here are some times for the moment:
In Belgium, 10pm on February 25th
In London, 9pm on February 25th
In New York City USA, 4pm on February 25th
In Los Gatos, CA, USA, 1pm on Februry 25th
In Alaska, USA, 12 noon on February 25th
I believe I've gotten all the times right, if anyone has corrections or additions, please pm me and I'll update this post.
UPDATE: For any VKF members, allies, friends, or anyone wishing to pay tribute, we will be assembling on Vulcan for a short moment of silence and tribute to our fallen comrade. If you need to get into the right instance, feel free to team with Keysailor@Keysailor before you beam down. Once you are in the same instance, you may leave the team so others may follow. Once on Vulcan, proceed to the bottom of the stairway, where we will be gathering just beforehand. We will then proceed to a nearby hillside for a short moment of silence and eulogy service.
Regards and condolences to the family of our comrade Jack Marshall.
I'll be honest about it. I didn't know him. In fact, I only heard of that person today. I can hardly say his death is going to touch me in any noticeable way.
On the other hand, I can relate to how his relatives feel. Hell, I've lost a couple of loved ones myself.
I won't give you my condolences, because that would be just an awful lie. I'll just say that all of us will die eventually. There's not much we can do about it.
It's best to come to grips with that inevitability sooner than later, before it's too late. Say goodbye. But then, it's best to move on.
I'm still working on that part myself in regards to my grandparents, so it's more of a 'do as I say, not as I do' thing. I really hope they won't die for another couple of years.
I'm not exactly satisfied with how I worded this, but it'll have to do. I do wish all of his relatives the opportunity to properly say goodbye. That is what everyone deserves.
Aw hell. Not good with words, I am.
