    Section 31 is still active however our fleet isn't immune to the loss of players either who became bored or disinterested in the game.

    Many players (and fleets) lost interest in the game over the months following launch.

    Section 31 and DOB were really active up until about a month or two ago.

    We used to premade each other along with a few Klink teams a lot.


    I won't speak for DOB but Section 31 is still active with at least 4 of our core members that I would on an "A-Team". 5 or 6 members that are decent players but haven't had the opportunity to play with the main group for training / tactics / strategies etc.

    The problem for us is getting all of our main guys on at the same time as my work schedule has increased lately so I have less time to organize them.


    Recruiting is one option however that obviously takes time.

    Tthere is a very limited pool of good PvP players and an even more limited pool of good PvP players that aren't in a fleet.

    Recruiting can be like a second job.

    I've always tried to keep Section 31 very small but competitive against the top players / fleets.

    Training players is like a second job and a third job but it is possible (obviously.)

    Well at least some players are trainable lol.


    There was a time in FvF early on where we had almost no competition until we started matching a fleet named DOB. All those matches were very close including our wins. Most of those fights came down to chance or one or two key situations that could have gone either way.

    We have good pickup groups from time to time including groups with members of 182nd and some other fleets vs. premades.

    I remember Faithborn playing with us a lot in groups when it was still pretty early on in FvF combat.

    It was a lot of fun but dwindling PvP content ultimately led to dwindling PvP numbers.


    A lot of fleets have consolidated and absorbed players from other smaller fleets who were dropping in numbers or leaving the game.

    182nd for example is a powerhouse now in terms of player numbers, skill, and overall PvP activity.

    However they're not a zerg they just have a large group of like minded PvP centric players that can field a few good teams on both factions.


    PvP is fun but it needs a lot more work in terms of areas of conflict, open PvP, additional objectives, etc.


    I am crossing my fingers that the 2.0x updates bring a lot more PvP content so the interest in the PvP side of the game picks up.

    SVK is still here, but we've had a serious (and sudden) drop off in our population in the past few weeks, but we're still here though.

    one of those things about fleets is that success breeds popularity (at least when recruiting). Then once the ball gets rolling and word of mouth spreads, people quickly come. But without that first striking success its pretty hard to get rolling.

    182 is about to go through it's second big recruitment phase too.

    CHC (KDF) we are mostly ground, but do a lot of space as well. We are on nightly and run premades nightly.

    This.

    Recruitment Visibility holds true for any fleet even non pvp dedicated ones like mine.

    Also good idea with listing the devoted pvp fleets Zorena, I do see peeps asking on occasion, so having a list or better yet a thread handy to point to is a good plan.

    12th fleet - did some nice stuff before but they do premades?

    Thanks! :D

    We do premades, but we are mainly casual with pvping. We have some hardcore players (like me), but we usually mix our hardcore players and casual players/new admirals while PvPing, except when we really feel like crushing skulls. :cool: We don't consider ourselves a PvP fleet, rather an all-around fleet.

    If we were to get a tournament set up, then we could produce a team or two (or three). We have the plenty of active players, and a good number of pvpers.

    Synergy Fleet has gone from strength to strength in the last 2 months. We are a large and friendly fleet that does almost anything and everything within and around the game. I lead the PvP wing of our fleet and am sure we can give most teams a run for their money. ;)

    9th Fleet had a PvP squadron, but due to inactivity, we've since cut it, although we still occasionally partake in PvP

    Knights templar and they are pretty deep on the fed side we were picking on this poor guy madmax for crying so much and he said I am calling my fleet. Now we though that was funny then about 12 of them showed up so that’s pretty active.


    PS we still smash them

    Careful, they have some very good friends in other fleets.

    The Tribble Tribunal (TTT) is a small PvP fleet that runs one premade. Although the past few weeks we've been working Klingons up to Tier 5 in our Klingon fleet Purified By Pain (PBP), so we haven't been on our Feds.

    Unrepentant has also put together a dedicated PvP group called the "Red Shirts" which is becoming more active. A few Klingons (pug and premade) have found them already. :D

    Honestly - we had a blast with the Kling premade we hit. Since they are more used to communicating, there was quite a bit of adjusting to tactics, and joking all the while. We both had a blast. Literally.

    If you mean that your ships kept blowing up and tapping are shields, then I guess your right :p

    We are a very active PvP fleet just ask around. But madmax was trying to get his daily done and you guys were camping the spawn which is not a problem. So you all dared him to call for help which he did. So when the numbers were even you picked us off 1 by 1 but then when we re spawned we started smacking you guys like fly's. We took the fight all the way back to your spawn as you cloaked and ran away. But the only thing that you smashed was our shields by your ships blowing up. We have pics to show it

    I salute -KT- and their responding to one of their fleetmates plight, in my estimation this is what fleets are all about.
    It was a good time and one of the myriad reasons that I enjoy Ker'rat, getting outnumbered and the possibly of true surprise in STO
