    This has become very very annoying. I usually buy fleet marks since I can fill in the rest of the requirements usually by myself. However Its hard to get 5k fleet marks a day for projects solo. So I buy them, but now I can't buy them since I can't invite them to my fleet after they left their fleet. Please fix this so the starbase can grow again! :(

    Hello Guys,

    have the same problem. Left my fleet this morning, cause I wanted to buy a ship in another fleet. Got the ok from my boss and left my fleet. Got the invite to the other fleet. Pushed accept, nothing works. Only ?Error inviting to fleet: I am already invited to a fleet?.
    I asked in the German Forum. No suitable response.
    Getting crazy right now :confused:. Tried the /unhide thing, changing my private settings, no success.

    My last idea was to write a ticket to the support.
    Will see if this works (lol)

    Regards from Germany

    Having this same problem trying to invite someone to the fleet. Tried the /unhide, log off, log on, used the chat commands to clear /guild_acceptinvite and /guild_declineinvite to no avail.

    How about a dev response to this?

    Same issue. Have filed ticket, as well. So far, no response, as the PWE support page isn't loading properly.

    Dropped guild to join another, got invite, accepted, nothing. Repeat a dozen times or so, every other time giving the "already invited" error. Toon was set to visible to friends only, so I unchecked all the privacy settings and used /unhide to be sure, but get the same thing still. Invites have been sent from multiple other users, so it's not limited to just one person who cannot invite.

    I just lost the ability to join any fleet, including my previous existing one. I left my fleet to join one of our auxiliary one to purchase Fleet weapons, when I self-invited my own toon to the Aux fleet, I accepted and nothing happened, nada, zero.

    I submitted a GM Support ticket in hopes of resolving this issue, so I am hoping it gets resolve soon since its severely hindering my toon progress.

    Hopefully the issue will get resolved today, since there is a message on the launcher that the server will be brought down for emergency maintenance.

    Keeping my fingers Cross - Meanwhile I am going to play Neverwinter until the issue gets resolved. That way I will keep myself busy.

    Hope everyone gets their issue resolved as well.

    Seriously, I really thought this morning emergency fix was going to resolve this issue, are we going to have to wait until this Thursday to have it fix? If it is at all addressed.

    May a Dev, someone from Cryptic give us some news regarding this bug. This is making Fleet gameplay undesirable - any response with some news would do.

    I think there has been 3 or 4 emergency maintenances now without this being addressed. Considering its been close to 2 weeks since i first saw this error hoping for it to be fixed in Thursday's patch may be overly optimistic.

    I honestly think this is releated to the server loads Cryptic has been experiencing because of the extreme loads they have receiving.

    Someone in my fleet said they saw a lower level toon (-35 levels below him) in a recluse. I thought you could only use those ships at level 45-50? I don't think it was a holo emitter since I don't think there is a recluse holo emitter.

    Something to do with server queries might be messing everything up (due to loads) including joining fleets....

    Sucks either which way you look at it though...

    This all did start right about the time we started having server crashes every other night.

    Yes and I think this problem will be ignored like many other problems in this game. Ingame support is useless and in the German forum I think I am alone with this damned bugg. And I dont get any useful response there.
    This makes me a bit sad.

    I am still having the issue of joining a fleet. I can see the invites, click on accept, no go. I am not, repeat, not on the roster of my old fleet.

    Hi, I'd like to formally file a complaint regarding this bug.
    Cryptic or whomever is in charge of support is now ridiculously evasive
    I opened a ticket a month ago asking for support on my fleetless main character unable to rejoin the fleet or any other fleet.
    A WHOLE WEEK later a response was produced telling me to provide MORE information.
    I sent DETAILED information to whoever needed more info is probably a moron who should not be answering tickets.
    That aside, after 12 days, 12 DAYS i received the following response: this is not a problem we can solve, you need to send this to the BUG team filing a BUG report withing the game.

    There is NO BUG TEAM feedback, as after 3 MORE WEEKS I have no response.
    What the heck?

    I am eagerly awaiting the launch of LoR and the impending **** storm that will be caused when a good chunk of the newly created romulan characters are unable to join a fleet. This bug has nothing to do with leaving a fleet and joining another, this effects even newly created characters that have never been in a fleet.

    Lovely.

    Well hopefully the devs at least read the forum even if they don't reply and we can get this fixed soon.

    This is intolerable. Something as fundamental as this can't be broken.

    Wow, this was a bigger problem than I thought.

    Any devs reading this thread, this absolutely must be addressed before LoR launches next week. There will be many Romulan characters wanting to join fleets. I really hope people won't have to restart their characters... :(

    I posted earlier on this fleet page. I was able to get back in my fleet. Being the fleet leader, I had my members continuously send me invites. After about 3 days, I randomly re-entered... and guess what... I am about to have someone kick me from the fleet.. .again to see if Ican get into another for a ship. I'll let ya know how this works out. XD

    :Results:

    I had one of the members kick me... and no suprise... I can't join the fleet I wanted. I suggest if anyone tries leaving their fleet... do it, immediately sign off, and them come back. This might work.

    I just got help from a nice guy, trying to fix the problem: Logging on, logging off, changing ship, changing private settings, force file check etc.
    No success at all. This makes me so tired of STO, I cant explain.

    im one of those people that have a few alts, and will drop an alt out of my fleet to help some new players form their fleet. I done this last night, dropped an alt, tried to help a person form their fleet, once we done that, i dropped from his, and tried to get back in to my own fleet, but, same thing as everyone else, get invite, hit accept, nothing happens, or, send invite, get error.
    The other person i tried to help, told me it didnt work, someone else was made leader of the fleet and himself, well, he was still fleetless.
    I submitted tickets, but, typical of cryptic, they never reply. As we can see, 2 weeks on since this topic was first posted and the problem persists. Wtf? And they want to release LOR next week? I say, fix the friggin bugs first, then worry about the expansion. Cause i aint spendin a dime on this game again until all these friggin bugs are fixed!
    I believe God created the universe, because he knew we wanted to explore. So, he made us a playground...

    We are aware of the issue, unfortunately it's not consistent. Any further info would be helpful, such as specific character names and handles, the number of times you've switched fleets, if the character was online when the invite was made, or privacy settings. Any info of this type would be helpful in tracking down the problem.

    I can't rejoin a fleet on a toon I had since I started playing, which was 2011.

    The last time I successfully switched fleets was in October 2012.

    Previous to that, I don't remember.

    Recently (May 14), I attempted to switch fleets, but I got stuck unable to accept invites just after leaving, and never made it into the other fleet. Character was online for the invites, privacy settings:

    Search Visibility: Visible to All
    Allow only friends and fleet to chat: off
    Allow only friends and fleet to email: off
    Allow only friends and fleet to make team invites: off
    Allow only friends and fleet to tell: off
    Allow only friends and fleet to trade: off
    Allow only friends and fleet to issue challenges: off
    Allow fleet invitations: on
    Allow others to view your character on gateway: on

    Jehm Gryphonkin@whytelyon (T'ran magically fixed herself)
    Not hidden
    Left Task Force Specter about a week ago, that's when I got bugged and unable to join my old fleet (S.W.O.R.D.)
    Tried online, offline, from multiple characters and fleets.
    Switched fleets roughly 5 times in the last couple years, mostly to buy fleet ships.

    -- EDIT

    I apparently can't zone into fleet starbases either. I was invited to a group by a fleetmate, and attempted to zone into SWORD's starbase from Eta Eridani. The option was there, I clicked it, and I didn't zone,a nd the option reappeared.

    --- EDIT 2

    Was able to zone into starbase when invited by a fleet member. When accepting an invite, the prompt disapears and people get errors trying to send you another invite, tho that error can be cleared with the /guild_leave command; that gives you an error where you can't use the command because you're not in a fleet, but it allows another invite to be sent regardless.

    -- Edit 3;
    Stranger and stranger, got another invite from a friend of a friend, and got this error;

    [Fleet] Myshella has invited you to join STO Academy.

    [Fleet] Error accepting fleet invite: you are not in a fleet.

    My characters name is Zander@fltadmiralzander. I have switched fleets with this character maybe 4 times total. This character has been both online and off line when invites were sent out. I have had fleet mates try to invite this character and I have tried inviting myself several times. All of my privacy setting are open so nothing is set to block any type of invite for anything.
