Hi there. I have been following this MMO for a long time and saw your guild and its website mentioned on http://www.tentonhammer.com

BillyHelms recommended coming here and posting in the recruitment thread.

My old guilds website for reference: http://www.exodiaguild.com

Yes, my last MMO was World of Warcraft which I had played for over four years. Our guild (A Roster of 60+maybe 20 friends that did not raid) was seventh in North America out of the seven million who played on a server of 60,000.

By the time I left the guild and quit the game (For reference if anyone here plays/played WoW I quit in 3.0, we had downed Kil'Jaeden already) I was the 2nd longest member by seniority.

The guild was created the day the game came out. Everyone in the guild got along really well, joking around was the most important thing to keep everyone together when trying to defeat difficult encounters (Voice chat was essential for everybody) I really love working to make the guild the best on the server(Which we were - by a long shot). But in this case there is only one server from what we're told :)

I'm a long time Star Trek fan, was even a First Contact-Era Captain for Halloween :)

If you're all willing I'd love to join the community. Command Division.

Well, welcome to the process. Someone will be by to explain the process to you. Looks like you have your sights set fairly high already which I guess could be a good thing or a bad thing. ;)

Good luck either way.

Great Job making it here! I am Commander Helms of the Exploration division. Just head to STO to meet with other members and those who can get you in the right division. Download GSC if you don't have it so you can do voice chat.

we shall wait for the fleet admiral to look you over! we can use you here at 12th, but the fleet admiral will determine your begining rank :) also you should take a look at our fleet thread on sto fleet registration station...the 1st page has description of divisons in the fleet. YOu could rise faster in the newly created JAG corps :)

JAG or Diplomacy seem to be pretty appealing departments of Command :) I was planning on leveling up through the Cruiser ships before dabbling in the Escort or Science Vessel flavors.

The USS Sodaprise will see plenty of the final frontier!

Looking forward to hearing from you guys Ajescorcia, :D


Edit: I'll grab GSC, since I'm used to Ventrilo I didn't have any other programs for voice chat.

Welcome! Friend of Billy Helms!!! :) Very nice to Meet you! Im glad to have you in the fleet! :)

Just on a side note your starting rank is up to Arsinoe. I would like to suggest you take a look at this link though. It is a thread I started a while back. I think everyone is happy with the earning system of ranking up.

Greetings, Unfortunatly as you might have been told we never give high positions to new members. We strongly believe that everyone needs to prove themselves before they are given a high rank.

Therefore the highest I can offer you is Lieutenant-commander. If you join the JAG division there is little to no competition and plenty of time to work your way up through the ranks and prove your worth :D

Starting from the same rank as Worf, not so bad! :)

Thanks very much Arsinoe and everyone else for the warm welcome!

Now I need to get the USS Sodaprise out of spacedock.

JAG subdivision sounds like the way to go.
