Re: [Poll] Should we change the Fleet Uniform?

February 08 2013
I vote a strong no. Our uniform is sleek, true to the look of trek, a part of our history, and stands apart from generic uniforms.

[Poll] Should we change the Fleet Uniform?

February 08 2013
Our Fleet Uniform has been the same since the games launched. Some feel that this is a piece of our history and should not be changed. Others feel likes its time for something new and fresh. What do you think?

If the majority of our membership votes to change the Fleet Uniform, we'll begin a fleet-wide contest to decide a winner.

It should be noted that many of the newer uniforms will not be able to be used in the Fleet Uniform due to limitations within the game. Please keep that in mine when voting.

Great idea Nick! Here are a couple of immediate thoughts... first of all, complete list (as far as I can tell) is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LGBT_holidays

Ah! Thank you. I was searching for that list everywhere on wikipedia, but couldn't find it anywhere.

Stonewall Riot (June 27) - Do we explicitly celebrate this date over and above the general Pride celebrations? By rioting I guess? Might be nice to have an event specifically tied to it (or at least a MoTD) if we don't already.

Pride celebrations are Stonewall Riot celebrations. That's why we have marches, to reenact the original riot. We don't celebrate it exactly on that date; we plan our celebrations for the weekend and try to avoid the same weekends as other major cities celebrations so as many people as possible can come to ours.

World AIDS Day - Awesome idea, would love to see ideas to increase AIDS awareness both within and outside of the fleet.

It'd be great if we had better education and awareness on HIV/AIDS in and out of the fleet. I'd like to see a mix of all kinds of celebrations for these events, in game, on the site, and in multiple of our games.

Thank you everyone who responded! We are all very excited about adding this new component to the Fleet.

As such, we are currently working out all of the specifics of this new venture.

Keep an eye out in the Holodeck forum for an announcement with more details soon to come!

Any update on this topic?

On a side note, I submitted a piece to the official forum for Literary Challenge #38 (entry #6). I'd be curious of feedback if anyone wants to give it a read.

alright alright alright.....gotten off topic a bit yes?

I love stonewall because we all share Gene's vision for a future where we are all free, equal, and treated fairly. And there are tribbles.

Ok where is Judy's Birthday (June 10th)?

In more than a few Gay chorus circles we actually celebrate this as Icon's Day, a day we celebrate and give gratitude to all the fabulous gay icons that have supported us and fought for us...it's also a day to totally indulge in Cher, Madona, GaGa and others with out any guilt whatsoever.

In Stonewall Fleet, we've celebrated Pride every year and that's great, but there's a lot of other glbt holidays out there than that. Just that come to mind are:
  • World AIDS Day
  • Day of Silence
  • Coming Out Day
  • Transgender Remembrance Day


Great idea Nick! Here are a couple of immediate thoughts... first of all, complete list (as far as I can tell) is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LGBT_holidays

The two that caught my eye as being the easiest to build some momentum:

Stonewall Riot (June 27) - Do we explicitly celebrate this date over and above the general Pride celebrations? By rioting I guess? Might be nice to have an event specifically tied to it (or at least a MoTD) if we don't already.

World AIDS Day - Awesome idea, would love to see ideas to increase AIDS awareness both within and outside of the fleet. For example:
  • External awareness - Change our uniform insignia to red ribbons? Promote discussion while pugging? Post relevant message on the forums?
  • Internal awareness - Do we have anyone who's poz and proud who could help lead this? I would love to have more open discussion about this within the fleet in general and it'd be great to be able to refer new members to poz role models who can provide support as needed.



Great initiative!

Cummon.

This is Stonewall.

It's more of a Discreet Orion Slaveboy Escort service, than anything else.


The House of Nagh reD DOSE Service? I could get used to that.

Some like supplying signatures, others supply Orion slaveboys... Any more volunteers to join the house? :-D

As for that jealous mocking from those miscreants in the PvE department (did I say SECOND best department? Pfft), obviously they're hiding in the PvE world because they're not lizard enough to talk like that in PvP. :-p

You're sure we can't shove you in a Chel Grett? Even temporarily?

GLBT Holidays & Events

In Stonewall Fleet, we've celebrated Pride every year and that's great, but there's a lot of other glbt holidays out there than that. Just that come to mind are:
  • World AIDS Day
  • Day of Silence
  • Coming Out Day
  • Transgender Remembrance Day
It'd be great if we could start celebrating some of these other events as well. To get that started, we should create a list of the most important events every year. Many of these events are usually country specific, so I figured I'd ask our multi-national community, what events should we celebrate?

Re: Update 1.7- Reputations

February 07 2013
Thanks Sean! You beat me to it. :laugh: :) Looks like an interesting system, I guess most players are near or at the end of their legacy leveling so devs had to come up with something for them to do with their time. My question is, what missions are those with lots of level 50s going to do to level the various reputations? There are only so many dailies available..... :(
