I'm a recent new addition to the STO fleet, and I'm wondering if someone could also invite me to the SWTOR guild? My name there is Ryyas, or just tell me who to find in game and I'll search for you there :) Thank you!

The possibility of this happening is exactly why I relented and Bought the pre-order at the start. It will be good to get back to my sorceror :)

Have to admit though that when I did play it the time gates did keep screaming at me that it was all set up for B2P from the start.

I'm still rolling the overall changes in my mind. I like the direction that it's going and may have more feedback later. But initially, there's some minor things.

we can not exclude the most vulnerable part of our community, that being under eighteens.

"that being under eighteens" I'm sure most understand the lines intent but it's a tad odd in word usage. I'd suggest ", those under eighteen."

Sometimes being in a leadership position can be trying but we will not allow this to effect our behaviour.

I believe that effect should be affect. Also, people in the UK spell it: behaviour?

Sometimes dealing with people from all of the world

Should this read "Sometimes dealing with people from all over the world"?

I might give it a try now. I liked Skyrim.

ever since my closed beta try and then landed in Elswhere. then i found out there was a sub :/ I might try again :)

I know that there are a few ESO topics already, but was unsure which one to put this.
Anyways, *beep* yeah:

I'll be playing again, who's with me?

Read this over folks, it takes merely a minute or two of your time!

I think it's simple and easy enough to understand. Looks good to me!

In my country there are so called integration schools where healthy kids and kids with light disabilities learn together. This is quite nice since those who are disabled can go to a normal school and learn normal stuff, and healthy kids get to be around wheelchairs and learn how to help those in need.
Now I imagine a school just for the disabled. And I don't mean those who are really mentally impaired but just on a wheelchair. We would be making a kind of ghetto and saying "Look, those kids oin wheels are different, they have to have a separate school".
The same is happening with this LGBT school. It shouldn't be a school just for gay people - it should be an LGBTQ FRIENDLY school but for everyone. This woulkd teach love and acceptation!

Hey guys, if you guys have a PSN account what is your name? maybe we can team up for multiplayer :)

I am just reviewing the Code of Conduct sections and i have noticed that

there are names of places that i haven't seen before or don't exist since transferring from Ventrilo to TeamSpeak "Quarks Bar, Quantum Cafe, Federation Fleet and Klingon Fleet".

If the Code of Conduct is a guide of sorts for the fleet to follow, then rephrasing sentences that have the intended effect as some people would view think that the Code of Conduct are a laughing matter.

I know this is nit picking of all things but it would be helpful to make things clear as well as straight forward for member to understand without confusion.

I like the WIP code of conduct it gives a straight forward approach of the intended behavior of members in the fleet whilst matching with the emojis as Ereiid has mentioned.

I wouldn't mind seeing a third bit as a general rule of thumb of all members in its own category referring to a more common sense and etiquette of behaviour when respecting those of different nationality, sexuality, gender, intelligence and so on. Maybe following the "K.I.S.S" method would be a good idea. (Keep it simple silly)

But in all i like the ways its going. Great work Halish.

Dax

I rather appreciate your approach taking the form of a contractual understanding.

And moreover, the third point - that members wearing the Stonewall tags are standard bearers for the fleet at large - is a welcome and important addition.

Thumbs up emoji here.

Some may see this as sanctuary, but be that as it may it will only do more to further segregate and distort the views of LGBT people.

Sure, it's extremely hard to look past being bullied and hated. A lot of kids put up with that shit because they are different in some way, so let's look at the big picture.

Look at it this way: In the US, we've seen more and more states adopt marriage equality in the past 6 years, while the courts meanwhile continue to strike down state laws that outright ban it. Meanwhile, the US Supreme Court will be taking up the matter once again this year because of those cases. Meanwhile in the UK, the issue has been settled and marriage equality is a reality.

Will these milestones instantly end hatred and bullying? Of course not. But my point is that views are evolving out there. With time, all of this will further end the worthless debates once and for all and help pave the way to a better future.

We have to be brave, and we have to teach our kids and the younger among our community to stand their ground. Because it IS getting better.

Courage is everything. Let's not step back now.

The reason for the segregation was to try and reassure members that it's not one way traffic.

When a member breaks the rules someone in a leadership position will immediately point to the code of conduct to show them their mistake.

The leadership has to be held accountable as well and I wanted members to have some reference point that they can point to if they feel the leadership isn't living up to their responsibility.

I think it goes without saying that the leadership isn't exempt from the "member" part of the code of conduct.

It certainly isn't meant to segregate in a way that "elite-ifies" the leadership. I may have to rethink the layout.

Edit: Sorry cal, almost forgot to respond to the second part of your post.

Detailing the processes for disputes and guides on etiquette are covered in other parts of the welcome centre and more specifically the members handbook (a revamp of which is also on my to do list).

I could try and put some links and maybe some "hint" style boxes to explain things at a glance. Something to think about.

nice borders! :) but does it feel like it segregates between membership n command?

"Always uphold the same standard of behaviour that is expected of you."
Always treat you with the respect you deserve.
- these are implied anyway by virtue of being a member too?


i like that it's been simplified a lot and yeap, common sense rules!!

explanations seem reasonable;
perhaps link further to more complex processes (such as how we deal with disputes) separately
expand to refer to the 18+ in those specific zones?

The Phantom, Scryer, Eclipse, Guardian, Pathfinder and Dauntless.

The 6 Federation T-6 Ships are some of the most powerful and game changing ships that has emerged. The biggest draw of these ships is their ability to use Intelligence Bridge officer abilities and the consoles that came with them.

The next livestream will be on Saturday 1/24 at 6:00 PM Eastern and will focus on outfitting and utilizing the ships in both PvE and PvP.

This livestream we will focus on:

The Intel Ships
The Phantom
The Scryer
The Eclipse

The Non-Intel Ships
The Guardian
The Pathfinder
The Dauntless

The Livestream Channel: www.twitch.tv/whiteonmyoji

If you want to review and get caught up on our past livestreams including our first one of the new season, they can be found at www.youtube.com/user/WhiteOnmyoji/videos

During the Livestream we will be giving away a prize(s?) that will scale in quality depending on the number of participants we have so to get the good stuff bring your friends into the Livestream. We has 24 people last time, 2 short of our record, lets see if we can completely smash that this time around/

The Tactical Readiness Dept have been working hard data mining, PvPing, plenty of trial and errors (more errors than anything really) and experimenting with different things. We are more than excited to bring this to you.

Pardon me being blunt but segregation is a giant leap backwards no matter how you try to spin it. Anytime you segregate it strengthens intolerance. The community has made great strides in the last 2 decades eliminating the hiding and fighting back the bullies. While it is still not paradise it is further along than I'd ever imagined it would be. I was not bullied in the 80's in school but I know people that were. You reading this right now may have been. I was buried so far in the closet it took me 13 years out of high school to figure out that I am what I am and I stopped hiding.

Hello All,

We've had our current code of conduct for pretty much forever and I believe it's no longer fit for purpose. I have, with the approval of the other community admins, been working on a simplified code of conduct that relies more on common-sense "general" rules than the broken down section-by-section of old.

I'd like to ask any of you that is willing to have a look at the below link and give constructive criticism.

http://fleet.stonewallgaming.net/code-wip-2014

Please feel free to speak your mind as we are very open to improvements in order to make our code of conduct work for us.

The current code of conduct can be found here:

Accessing Stonewall from Knights (SWTOR) or Vanguard (GW2)?

When you click the above link you'll be taken to the Fleet (STO) version of the website and will have to re-login using the same login details you'd normally use.

This is only temporary while working on it. Once it's finished and approved the final version will be ported to the other sites and styled to match.

Thanks,

Halish
