I'm am deeply disturbed to see a fleet that once claimed to be an open community become so closed off and totalitarian.
Between this and Xeanu's increasingly homophobic and disruptive trolling of the Trading Channel and Zone chat I am afraid I can no longer support this failed fleet. I am hereby suspending all future aid efforts to Xtern1ty and it's allies.
Hmmm Xean. Your latest status update on the progress made by the Xtern1ty Armada is interesting - looks like you guys have managed to get a large group of fleets together are really making something of it! I wonder whether you have any slots still available in your armada for those that might be interested in joining?
Holy TRIBBLE the trolling is OP. How is this not locked yet or banhammer? LoL mods slacking off ^^.
Trolling is OP, pls nerf! LoL
... I get to block their messages on my end so it doesn't bother communication with members and friends; a nifty feature with the new forums. Remaining open just adds to their lengthy list of fails on our group and others. They get an ego boost by thinking they've manipulated the system if closed and would just follow to the next one to repeat. Another useless empty trophy to mount on their waiting room wall. In the end, admins will do what they know is best, but I'd rather it remained open for the time being as it's a very busy time for us and we've lots of new developments in store.
For fleets looking for an active group to partner with, our slots on fed are mostly filled in but we still have room. The advantages of partnering your fleet with our cooperative network is among other things:
- You get active players to team with for both PvE and PvP.
- As a solid armada, you're assured of good boosts from the onset even as beta and gamma; greater than just being in an armada with one or two fleets, even if T-5. Initial boosts will rise higher in future, once our gamma t-4's reach t-5.
- Being an established long-term community, you have the assurance we'll be around to accomplish future team goals.
- With both teamspeak and raidcall access, as well as a unified in game channel with over 700 members, your members can participate in events and help nurture a thriving community.
- Unlike most other Armadas, our group is a true STO community-run cooperative. No monopolies by a single overbearing fleet, no alpha telling you how to run your affairs. Leave any superiority complex at the door. Here we are equals, no matter what position your fleet is in the armada.
- Players can link freely between any fleet in the network to enjoy the game and leaders of fleets in the armadas help manage the network itself from the Alpha fleet as leaders partnered towards common reachable goals.
- By participating in our community-run network, you get to work together with other gamers and leaders on a project you will be able to look back and be proud of being part of, while enjoying the time you spend on STO here and now.
If this sounds like a great idea and you want to learn more, drop us a message. We look forward to hearing from you!
NOTE: We are looking for one more T-5 beta and t3-t4 gamma's for fed and T3-T5 fleets for the KDF Armada partnership. Our slots are filling day to day, contact us to reserve one.
I don't know enough about fleet tiers to answer this

To be honest, I haven't been at this long, but if I had to answer, I'd say the shoot 'em portions.
•» Are you a new or established player_
New. My brother-in-law told me about it and I thought I'd try it out.
•» Are you a regular on these forums_
No, and I don't think I will be, either. From what I've read so far, it's a pretty divisive community and I have no intention of getting in the middle of it.
•» Are you a crafter_
No, but then I've just started.
•» What are you looking for in our community_
Sanity and a little help. The chat in this game is off the rails and the few times I've asked for help of one kind or another I've been to told to do things to myself that I'm pretty sure I can't repeat in these forums
•» Are you a fleet builder_
I don't know what that is yet.
•» Will you be a regular fleet donor_
I don't know yet what I need to donate to a fleet, but if I'm told and I have it, then the fleet can have it, I suppose.

None. New player.

Our final beta spot on fed has been claimed. On KDF, we are open to all t-3+ fleets.
If you have a minimum t-3 level fleet you want to team up for armada, we have 2 non-reserved gamma slots on fed available. Due to our unique community-led armada arrangement, our slots are in high demand. They may fill at any time, if interested be sure to contact us to reserve a spot at your earliest convenience.
Your application is currently under review by our admins. You will be contacted by in-game mail within 24 hours with the resulting status of your application.
Thanks xtern1ty. I actually got an invite to a fleet shortly after posting here, but there was only 25 or so members in it and it wasn't called xtern1ty so I left it about an hour later. If that was you, I apologize for leaving and would certainly want to come back.

Denison should be in touch with you @keracaulk , if he hasn't been already. Currently we do not accept new non-level 60 players in the alpha fleet, but we have a variety of tier-3 to tier-5 fleets you can join. Denison's fleet, Encrypted Data, has been one of our close allies for a long time and is a member of the Armada; which he also helps lead.
Long before Armada, we've been an extended network of cooperative fleets and leaders. Regardless which you are part of, once in a network fleet you will get access to the main channel XTERN1TY or in teamspeak or raidcall. You can ask to team, for advice and help or get access to free services like fleet gear. Feel free to chat with us anytime we are available, our members and I are glad to be of assistance.
It is my humble privilege to announce our mutual partnership in armada with longtime allies Orion Cygnus, Thrasher Command, 9th IDIC, The Good Guys, DOFFJOBS and Encrypted Data; as well as Xiphias, Starbase 001 and other fleet friends. Together we comprise STO Alliance Network, which continues the fellowship of the first community-led mainstream collaboration between small fleets and large ones started by fleet XTERN1TY long before armada.
Please see our KDF thread here for the announcement of our KDF partnership.
Fleet XTERN1TY, a mainstay of STOAN from pre-armada times, is an integral part of the partnership and continues to collaborate with Orion Cygnus, Thrasher Command, 9th IDIC, DOFFJOBS, The Good Guys and other fleets and armadas to further expand and perpetuate one of the most enduring functional networks for regular players on STO.
Together, the fleets of STOAN are home to approximately 3,000 players, in over 20 fleets. For players with voicecom capability, we feature both teamspeak and raidcall, along with a troll-free, in-game, multi-fleet, teaming/free service/chat channel for players who request an invite.
Among the STOAN Fed fleets are:
Thrasher Command
9th IDIC
Orion Cygnus
Xiphias
The Good Guys
DOFFJOBS
Encrypted Data
Starbase 001
XTERN1TY
If you are a fleet or armada leader and want to team with STOAN, even if you don't join our armadas; feel free to message us here or preferably in private anytime. Some of the advantages of networking with STOAN are:
- Combined teaming. If you're fleet is not as active as it was, you can team with us, start and lead teams in our main channel without having to leave your fleet.
- Building opportunities. Have too many marks? Got purple gear you'd like to stock up a fleet's bank with? We have the room and welcome donors. Similarly if you need marks or help building, teaming with our community of helpful players lets you avail of help from a more reliable and larger array of donors than you can find in public channels.
- Events. Reap the rewards of community-led gaming when you partner with us on multi-fleet network events, such as giveaways, recruitment events, parties and PvP.
Collaboration makes all that and more possible. We look forward to meeting you. Haec victoria et pace in felicitas vobiscum.
Regards,

in collaboration with hawke, lyssel, caitlyn, Frank, Mike, Zero, gamersaint, bubblesandteia, Savage, Mereille, euclidese, Droog, levi, jaydawg, Denison, esteban, many others and most importantly you; the extraordinary team players of STO, without which this would not be possible. You are the real pillars of the community.
I was just kicked from your channel (I know it wasn't you as you wouldn't do something like that). Did something happen? Could I get a reinvite please?
Starfleet Dental would like to announce the recent acquisition of fleet XTER1NTY! If you are pleased with this news, give yourself a pat on the back because we wouldn't have done it without you! The current leader has stepped down from office where their private secretary has stepped in. I am also pleased to announce that Funball Fridays will be returning soon, so get those low-level blasters ready for the weekly pvp matches against your superiors! This will be a great way to let your frustration out against your drill instructors while still providing a fun, safe work environment!
When Cryptic releases the new Klondike Class ship, we will be able to have Snowball Sundays! For anyone who wishes to join fleet XTERN1TY, please contact Glutes@blueweak. As a reminder, this is a FED fleet. If you would like to join the KDF fleet, do not hesitate to contact Xean@xtern1ty in-game!
One of the XTERN1TY channel leaders was yelled at for trading in a non-approved trade channel and called a spy. They responded by kicking hundreds of people from the XTERN1TY channel, everyone they had permissions to.
