  1. I'm making a temporary ISS Site because DeSylva probably won't have the main one back online until after his leave.

    It, for the most part will look just like the main one (a few differences, I have ZERO knowledge of html), i'm making it using web studio, i'm a little rusty using it... and I dislike having to upload anything... even with my cable modem. I'll post the address as soon as its ready.

    If the Fleet commander's wish anything to be posted on the news page, tell me... I've got to make the changes in web studio, and then re-upload the entire site (WHAT FUN! )

    later

    Ok, here's some ship names I can think of... this won't leave many good names left. I think I've used a few of them myself... but the ones I've used have been used in several novels at once so at least I'm not the only person.

    And please no one be mad at me if my my ship name coincidently happens to be the same as a ship-class of Freespace 2.

    HEY, AT LEAST I KNOW WHAT MYRMIDON MEANS!

    No way I was going to name my ship it if I had no idea what I was calling it, he he he.

  3. Hey, FC... I've just finished reading (oh and I printed the entire 50+ pages) the pluto insurgency. And I have one word to describe it!

    SUPERDOOPERMAGNIFICAL! (I couldn't think of anything else to describe it so I made that word up?!?)

    P.S. I've posted the RP Summaries in the InSystemSupport yahoogroup!

    seeya

  4. I guess every time I address you and DeSylva, I'm going to have to begin and end every sentence with, sir?!?

    [rp]

    "Sir, Insurgents detected in the Polaris system. We believe they are going to mount an attack on Galcom, sir!"

    [/rp]

    He he he

  5. Do you find you spend all your hard-earned money for the day buying a couple more units of radine to power your ship?

    Well, I have a tip for you that doesn't involve cheating in any way whatsoever .

    GET INTO THE MINING BUSINESS!

    As soon as I start a character, I send my shuttles down to earth and drop off the mining drones, call my shuttles back and then go out searching for some cannon fodder. Once you've been seriously hurt because you've just taken on a spacestation or something, go back to Galcom HQ and repair. You'll find that when you leave the station its been a few hours (because it takes time to fix things). Send your shuttles back down to the planet and retrieve the drones. Unload the minerals and sell them at Galcom HQ. Easy way to make something like 10,000,000-25,000,000 credits.

    Mwuah hah hah hah

  6. Why are most people I know like that?

    They see something, they shoot!

    My friends, they come over, they want to play a game, they don't know how to play, I put them into the training scenerio's... they shoot the instructor.

    IS EVERYONE ON EARTH TRIGGER-HAPPY?

    I hope so, that gives me an excuse to shoot everybody.

  7. Although DeSylva may be changing the fleet so there is no VFC. I do, like you, believe it's a good idea that 2 people have level 2 security clearance. Just for this sort of situation where DeSylva can't get to a computer because he's on a vacation or the like.

  8. Currently there is no need for someone of that rank is my guess.

    You need to be at least the rank of Fleet Commander to be in control of a fleet. So, all fleet leaders are Fleet Commanders.

    If the SC thinks he needs a person of that rank he'll promote someone and that would be that.

    Although I remember reading an old ISS Forum post, about Fltcmdr Ristar being promoted to Strategic Commander when SCID temporarily joined ISS.

    The more you control the higher the rank the SC gives you I guess?

  9. Unfortunatly, certain members have been unable to remain active due to their 'real life'. DeSylva said he was going to change the Fleet DB sometime in the next fortnight, those who are inactive will be moved into the inactive section and there will be only two wings from then on I&E and Defence.

    Btw, im glad you decided to join up!

    As Jamont would say:

    "Welcome to the war!"

  10. Hey Nick, I don't mind if your VFC. But that's up to DeSylva. If he thinks youshould be the VFC he'll tell you, stick you up there on that ISS Structure thing, and give you security level 2 clearance.

    However, we don't know what DeSylva's got in store for the structure of ISS... Up there's just my idea. DeSylva's version might not even have a VFC?

    Don't get your hopes up, pal.
