1. What is the Golden Rule of fleet bank use?
2. When giving to the bank, what Mark numbered items are NOT permitted?
3. What is the procedure for obtaining an energy credit loan from the fleet bank?
4. How many times did the resources department re-stock the fleet banks in 2013?
5. How can you help the fleet bank efforts?

1. Don't withdraw items form the fleet bank and sell them for cash (as a backup; no food tribbles common items or lockboxes)
2. MK I or MK II
3. The fleet does not loan EC as it is possible it would never come back tot he fleet
4. 104 restocks were provided by the Resources dept members
5. Follow the guidebook at all times and donate as much as possible.

1. Items not to be used for EC gain
2. I-II
3. There is no standard loan procedure :)
4. 104
5. Stocking up with quality goods/EC when it's low

F A C T O I D !

This Factoid is brought to you by the Fleet Resources Department, as part of the on-going, month long, fleet bank donation drive!


Did you know...?

That when the fleet banks become empty due to a lack of donations, they're re-stocked with items from the exchange and/or the personal loot of resources department members? In 2013, the department re-stocked the Fleet banks a total of 104 times, at an average cost of 1,000,000 energy credits PER re-stock, for a total conservative re-stock cost estimate of 104,000,000 EC.

Where does this money come from? Some of it is generated in our Forum Signature Shop, the proceeds of which are funneled into re-stock efforts, while the rest often comes from the personal inventories of our department members.


How can you help?

Be sure to follow the fleet bank rules, to ensure that the items in the fleet bank are being used appropriately, and also be sure to give generously of some of your quality loot to your local banks!

Thanks for yet another great event! It was first time attending Trek Trivia and while I didn't have a single answer I had a good time in chat making my best attempts at answering. It was great to see Traull in attendance and Dave....what to say....just WOW! The event was awesome!

and Andrew...my previous post says it all :)

My thanks to Voleron & Traull for hosting and working so hard on this awesome event! These events often bring us closer together as a community. (And, plus, there is cake!) I was glad to be able to provide the venue, but the cleaning crew is STILL trying to clean up the mess all you hooligans left behind! :P

Highly looking forward to the next! :woohoo:

Thank you for your hospitality. Your ship was nice and tidy. I did visit your Engineering section briefly to give it a quick white glove inspection. My report to follow. As for the carpets in your lounge....tsk tsk....

I see that my comedic stylings detracted from the main message. Next time, less jokes and more straight-faced information delivery!

It's okay. I think I figured it out. I went ahead and donated all said items to the Fleet Bank! Yay me!! The consumables tab was full though, so I went ahead put them in some of the other tabs. You guys should really stay on top of that. One question though, can I borrow 80 mill EC? I really want a Tuffli!

Voleron, I just watched your video. Let me get this gay. You want me to donate all my common items, lock boxes, tribbles, and food, especially [Cardassian Yamok Sauce], right?

So just shoving things in the fleet banks like i used to my closet when i was a kid and "cleaning my room"? :blink:

When I was a kid? crap I still do that...

Okay that was an amazing tutorial!!! as always Dave you are the best! Although there was some garbled communication that ended with Keston in there...

Always such a great experience watching your videos, and for the record while I would choose to keep Traull alive at all costs I realized that was the wrong answer immediately. :)

Hugs*

Wouldn't miss it!
