When is the release?

I feel this is a great decision, which I fully support. Thank you Officers. Thank you Nick.

Awesome :)

Thank you Nick and thank you to the rest of the leadership for this decision.

Starting Monday, December 9^th, we'll be enabling the "Purchase from Fleet Store" permission to the Member rank in Stonewall Fleet, Deep Space Stonewall and House of Nagh reD. This will allow Members to purchase items from the Fleet Store on the Starbase and Embassy in all of our fleets. As well, we'll be lifting the previous limits. We only ask that Members consider the needs of their fellow fleet members when purchasing items in large quantities.

The rank progression will then be as follows: Recruits can neither donate to Projects or purchase from Fleet Stores, Cadets can donate to Projects, but not purchase from Fleet Stores, Members can donate to Projects and purchase from Fleet Stores.

If you're currently a Cadet and would like to become a Member, please make an introductory post in the Start Here section of our forums. After that, if you've already had a character in the fleet for two weeks or more, upon request, we'll bypass the normal two-week waiting period and promote you to Member.

In the event that we drop below 25 Fleet Ship Provisions, Engineering Personal Provisions or Science Personal Provisions, we'll revert back to the current system while our supply builds back up. We're aware that we're currently below that limit for our Embassy provisions and we hope that with the assistance of our membership we can quickly build one up for all members to enjoy.

On another note, I want to thank everyone who made their position on this matter clear in the "A Gentle Reminder" thread. You're thoughts and positions on matters that affect the fleet are always important to us. Although, a debate of that magnitude is not necessary to elicit change in fleet policy. Bringing attention to the issues that may trouble our membership and possible solution that you'd like to see only need to be brought to our attention.

I wanna check out the Foundry. :P

The Japanese trailer is interesting, especially the "your family" part.

I hope this doesn't bode ill for our GW2 players.

Is anyone else gonna be interested in this?

The trailer does look good. At first I could have sworn that voice was Patrick Stewart's which would have been kinda awesome. I am still getting a rather strong Dark Knight Rises vibe from this trailer though but I'm sure it will be good. If only Abrams would apply the kind of plot intricacy that he goes into Fringe we might see something a lot more true to Trek but still entertaining to a general audience.

My favorite Star Trek movies seem to always be the even numbered ones:
2: Epic and the best revenge plot ever.
4: Lighthearted, funny and with an important environmental message.
6: A perfect example art imitating life in that it mirrored the USA's change in its diplomatic stance against a recently collapsed Soviet Union who had been viewed as an enemy for generations i.e. Federation + Klingons = Khitomer Accords.
8: Bitchin new Enterprise, Borg got a revamp, an awesome space battle that brought us some of our favorite ship ship designs and imho a much cooler-looking uniform.
10: Still good plot, Tom Hardy was a good villian and really did look and sound like a young Picard. Who's jaw didn't drop at the capabilities of the Scimitar?

Watching the Trek reboot always makes me think of seeing a brilliant, kind, charming friend with someone completely wrong for them, that's changed everything about em.

I've used vent for a good while. It's always had good quality audio and been very dependable, I don't personally think we require something else. But that's me.

Having watched the trailer now, I must say I am quite excited to see the new movie. I agree with what a lot of you have said in that Trek seems to have been dumbed down and that there's too much focus on the action nowadays and not enough on the original premise of Star Trek.

I would honestly prefer a film that has a more intellectual appeal, that delves more into exploration and has a good balance of military fiction vs science fiction. But, with that said, I'll hold back judgement until I've actually seen the movie, though I'm sure I will enjoy it like I did the first one.

Has anyone of you guys seen the trailer?

I got really excited when I saw this one. the next 6 months should be make its way real quick!

Profitable but forgettable perhaps? I've seen the '09 film a few times and it's like eating sweets in that if you ignore that it has very low nutritional value it's actually quite pleasurable but does that make it a good?

I'm not 100% sure about the validity of it but I heard that Abrams is only doing a trilogy and then they're going to moth ball Nu-Trek too?

ST The Motion Picture was okay, it had a strong moral about love and it tied into the series too, but it was a little drawn out and special effect heavy. I might be being a bit controversial here but I thought the later TNG films weren't the best, they had stupid ideas like the joystick driven Enterprise in Insurrection creeping in and to me the nu-trek stuff seems like the stupid ideas won over the interesting plot. I guess there's only so much you can milk from the Borg, especially after they were rendered toothless in Voyager, but there were plenty of stories they could have told in a film.

vent info is near the bottom of the link

I guess I may not have done too well in my search, but where exactly is the Vent info? I couldn't find the server info or password anywhere. :side:

NICELY DONE DoctorDisaster! I love the rainbow colors on those posters. Really makes them stand out. :cheer:
