welllllll im a young adult, (aged 27 now) and recently spending time with people younger than I am. i see myself censuring myself to check if i say something i...
OM: Since it's been very quiet around here lately... At various times in my on-line roleplaying adventures, I've noticed that sometimes there's a game that is...
To be honest, I think it's very good that GM's label their games as to being of an 'adult theme', thus letting people know that the content is going to contain...
Another thing that we do in some of our sims is this. There is one I co Mod. It is set with a Risa flava,but rather than a planet it is set like the Love...
Hello, I'm a newbie to this group. I have been a CO in variouse places for more than 8 years, though my time is mostly spent in the Vanguard Fleet of AQSG. I...
Welcome to the Captains List, I have an extensive list of Recruitment sites I'd be happy to share with you, just drop me a note. Captain Marissa Williams CO ...
I am writing to warn people about a player by the name of 'rabrazeau' - aka Bob. He has in the last several months done nothing but cause issues among our...
Greetings Captains and GMs... I thought maybe you would be interested in this event. I am directing one of the seminars on Tuesday and am GM2 on the Stargazer...
Back in the 90's, my sim the USS Bonaventure would regularly do cross-overs with other ships. Since this helped flagging sims with just a handful of crew able...
O.K., since things have been veeeeery quiet around here lately, here's something to discuss. While I have my own viewpoints on the subject, I'm interested in...
I must say that I am of the opinion that the rank should suit the background of the character, the players ability and their role on a sim. I have no problem...
In our game, Star Trek: Freedom, EVERY new player starts out with the rank of Ensign (junior grade) on graduating from the Academy (where new players learn our...
Wouldn't it make sense to ask them to write a sample post and decide on the rank based on how well they write? I would start at a lower rank and see if they...
I want to know how many of you who have switched characters have found yourself under attack by members of your own crew? In Bravofleet, when players change...
Frankly, **ANYONE** has a right to change a character if he/she is not enjoying the character or does not think the character is working out. Now.there may be...
I have, in the past, switched characters, though not quite in the way described. Some years ago I became the CO of the ship when the previous CO stepped down,...
I've also switched characters as well as a CO. A couple of times it was because I, like Liz, was taking over the sim from someone else, and I felt that the ...
Thanks guys, I just wanted to share with you my experiences though this. It seems this new generation of players think they can tell their Captain’s what...
Star Trek, games and writing in general are all about having fun. If you can't do that, and you can't switch characters to one you -will- have fun with. what's...
Interesting topic this one... Whilst I totally agree with what has been said thus far, it may be worth considering why some people get so irritated about a...
I’ve made it pretty clear to people why I got rid of my old character. He was never designed to be a flag officer which is what I got promoted to recently,...
Why does the game host always have to be a captain or an admiral. One of the best games that I ever hosted (although years and years ago) I hosted as the...
Everyone has different command styles in my humble opinion. If the GM is promoted to a flag rank by an organization they should have the right to take that...
... I am one of those who does play a captain as his CO character whenever I get to pick the rank of the CO. I do that because it seems a logical rank for most...
By all means, take your promotion if you earn it from a Fleet/Org/Asso. I did and I'm dammed proud of my accomplishments over the years. Most of you on this...
Having an 'admiral' as a CO is annoying enough to me that I don't allow it. In fact, we have no PC Admirals. Everyone in Flag Country has a PC, no higher then...
... It can be undestandable if you've got a flag officer in charge of a major facility - they would then be the ranking officer within a specified area of...
It also depends on what you're doing. Trek was always very loose in how it handled rank, though this got better in the later series like DS9. In a strict...
