Commander ZIX Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 I'm new and allowing for that, I have a new Idea. How about a fleet that only recruits newbies. that would give them a good chance to join a fleet that shares their perspective. Of course, being the one who thought this up, I was kinda hoping that I could be the fleet's commander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epsilon 5 Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 Sorry, but i don't think it would be useful... I mean, why a new fleet? The existng ones can hardly prepare campaigns with their effective (for now anyway).You, FC? No offense, but you are a newbie. You cannot pop out of the dark and say "I WANNA BE A FC! ... sorry man. Thinking about t, SC! I want to be a strategic commander, NOW! quote:that only recruits newbiesNooo... don't tell me... I suppose Orion recruit only veterans? Duh.Sorry, I don't approve you. Thanks you, try again! [ 06-09-2001: Message edited by: Epsilon 5 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 Fleets can only be created with Derek's permission... and I think it's safe to say you most likly won't get the permission. quote:From Zix's profile: Crushing Egos Guess What? We do that as well. Course we like to nail it before it even starts to grow.[ 06-09-2001: Message edited by: Eclipse ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blades Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 You dont wanna be a FC, Zix. The works hard, the hours lousy, you get no appreciation for you efforts and as a rule, you should completely re-develope a new website every six weeks or so. Other than that, a fleet for newbies would serve no purpose.You wanna be in a position of authority someday? Well then, join a fleet, stay active, do as you are told and above all else, learn from the people here as to what it's all about. Knowing how to play the game is one thing, understanding your place in it is another. Right now, we're more politics than firepower - both have a very important place in future and should not be overlooked.First piece of immediate advice, sort that sig out. Welcome to the war.

Yeah, my intel guys are watching you, Blades. quote:I get it. But theres ne thing i still dont get. What is the purpose of CL's post.I don't get it either.Now, as for your signature, ZIX, a few things need to be noted: there are NO clans, here. You are NOT a clan leader. We have fleets and fleet leaders. All of the fleet leaders are long time contributers to the game and community. If you want a position of responsibility, you must work for it - asking won't do.

Epsilon 5 Posted June 10, 2001 Report Share Posted June 10, 2001 But I think that if you find people for it, you could create a squadron, just a little group of people banding togheter and roaming the BCM/GCO mp world. Unofficial, but you could be the leader.What career (caste) are you interested in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Lindsey Posted June 10, 2001 Report Share Posted June 10, 2001 My post explained:Original proposal. We need a newbie fleet.My answer expanded. Prime is the default fleet you are assigned to when you join Galcom. This applies to forum members as well as to future multiplay. If you don't make the special effort to be an insurgent, join one of the specialised Galcom fleets, or be an independent or other race you are by default in Galcom Prime Fleet. Since a lot of the members who come here need time to make a decision (they are still a newbie) I would consider Prime as the newbie fleet & basic training so to speak. If you decide to stay in Prime and make a sig you are out of the newbie part and into the main force. Is that better or did I just insult all of Prime?Same for Insurgents. Mike just reminded me of the procedure in Spectre. That's where you go till assigned. So Spectre is the "newbie" part of the Insurgents. Hope that's better.But everyone else is right. There will be no new fleets. But I see you understand that already. Uhmmm, don't forget to have fun and welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lockjaw Posted June 10, 2001 Report Share Posted June 10, 2001 Hey Zix.Why would you want a fleet of newbies? Its not like you will be a newbie forever.But if you feel like you need help most Fleets give you training.If you are interested in joining a fleet, post questions here and we will answer them for you.If you are interested in being in the strike fleet then Orion is for you.Here's Orion's site if you want to lookOrion Fleet[ 06-10-2001: Message edited by: Lockjaw ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
