That said, Masters, at least explain your change with a post to CatPhone so people will understand your reasoning.
Ooops
Normaly i change the Starbase MOTD, forgot it this time.
Sorry!

Well, I only changed it because I did not know who was doing it. Know that I know, I am leaving it alone.

Depends on the contributions, with all 3 1k projects running i think military will be first, a few days later engineering and years later science.

I have a little fleet related news. I won't actually announce anything official until we have decided which direction to take. Until then, we are taking comments and suggestions. We will use this information and decide on a course of action.
I want to be perfectly clear: NOTHING IS CHANGING AT THIS TIME. We remain a Ferasan-only fleet.
That being said, news has come out that the Romulan "faction" will not have a fleet system but rather will align with a faction and access their fleets (sounds more like a guild than a faction, but I digress). At this time, the actual founders of the fleet (a.k.a. those of us from day one) are considering allowing limited Romulan alts. We are not allowing anything yet. We are merely considering the possibility.
Before we decide whether to open the issue to a fleet-wide vote, we need your comments on the matter.
So, should we open the fleet to Romulan Alts and what should the limitations be?
I have my opinion, but we want to hear from the fleet.
Again, until further notice we are a Ferasan-only fleet!

I think that we should remain Ferasan-only, because after all it's the Ferasan Shadow Force. With only Ferasans, that has meaning. Unless they come out with a cat species, that's my opinion.

Dilemma Time again! When I get my Fleet Advanced Escort, I will need a great deal of materials to get it functional.
1. The XII Phased Polaron weapons went from under 700k back up to 4 million each (:mad:)! And I still need 4 DHC and 2 Turrets, all of which need to be [Acc] [Dmg].
2. In addition, I need either the Aegis Set, or the materials to craft it.
3. The problem is that I only have 7 million across all my characters. Ideas? Suggestion? Anyone?

My suggestion:
"Model 1"
Limited Romulans are allowed (some king of adoption, they have to swear a fealthy oath, also Maximum:1 per Career option, and for every romulan in the FSF you have to own one maxlevel FSF-cat, to said maximum of three Romulans).
Never more than 25% Romulans in the fleet (Romulans have to enter their species in the "Member Comments" Textfield).
Suggestion "Model 2":
Only allow Romulans (except romulan cats!) for the first Two Weeks, so only current members of FSF can join with a romulan, same restictions as above, no more rom's than FSF kittys.
I do not really like the idea of another fleet, i certainly would not do the starbase grind again.
Edit: Evil Suggestion 1: Dependant on Starbase Contributions, for Donations of 1.5 mil Fleetcredits (Masters are exempted) or above you are allowed to join the FSF with ONE Romulan.(Well, im not absolutely serious with the last one, but on a second thought..., why not reward top contributors like kess, 1'st, targoss, i'zira and others? this would prevent a flood of our green blooded friends)

I can't really help you with the weapons, but the Aegis stuff shouldn't take you more than a week to accumulate using just one character and the biggest challenge will be obtaining enough dilithium to hit cap every day.
For getting non-dilithium materials quickly it's best to head into Klingon space and go to the Azlesa expanse - the regular one, not the one that's for LG/VA characters only - as a Fed. Once you're in all the spawns in there are data samples. IIRC you only need 40 of each kind and you should be able to get the needed traces while you're there. The biggest problem I see you facing is having your crafting at the appropriate level.
Edit: 10:04 CDT 3/31/13
Suroo I've sent you the schematics and materials needed to craft the Aegis Set, but I was mistaken about the amount of Unreplicatables needed. Each piece needs 18 Uncommon and 15 Common Unreplicatable Materials to craft so that's, 18,150 dilithium per piece. So it'll require a full week at max refining for a single character.
So, should we open the fleet to Romulan Alts and what should the limitations be?

My thought are simple - we're a Ferasan fleet.
We're pure, and we've had lots of people with alts unable to get in, and lots of others have been booted/made to leave for not being Ferasan.
We're not a farm for Fleet/Starbase access based on the conversations seen with those that let their friends (Ferasan and non Ferasan) in to buy things from our accomplishments.
No need to pollute the core principal of the fleet for a cosmetic avatar and some new quests/ships. Some might not want to start over for one reason or another, but many of us joined FSF knowing it was Ferasan _only_
We have lots of friendly fleets, or make a new friendly Romulan fleet, if they have Cat alts, join the cat phone.
While running Cutting the Cord on Tribble, I was wondering what the heck I was doing to the Romulan ships to make them die so strangely. Now I figured it out. Since they don't have warp core breachs (no warp cores... duh), they get sucked into their quantum singularities (forced quantum singularities... duh). It looks like a green version of the rift caused sometimes by high yield tricobalts. It's very awesome.
EDIT: Oh yeah, and it's followed by a huge explosion that looks and pushes ship like a green photonic shockwave, without the momentary disable.
M'vore fears that he may just have to pass on his dream of defection for now, he wanted to join the true green side, not the yellow or cyan side , he was hoping to be in a faction independent of the dogma of either the federation or klingons. He will only compromise now if a feline species is added so he can truly remain a fitting species for the FSF on the other side.
Well, it would appear to be pretty one-sided. We are a Ferasan-only fleet and will keep it that way.
Thanks for your input.

That was awesome.
Now we just need CSE and KASE videos to complete the STFs.

I third this; however, I'll have to read that part of the Q&A again. I don't remember seeing this in there.

Also, I believe that this fleet should have other species too, we cannot survive with only Ferasans! (check the date before replying please)
