Rules and Regulations
1.
The
32nd Fleet is a jealous fleet; you may not belong to any other Star Fleet Command
(SFC) fleet/clan but her.
2.
When
any 32nd member enters or leaves a room, salutes (<S>) are exchanged. In addition,
the senior person present will say Attention On Deck (AOD) when an admiral
enters a room and has greater rank than any already present. [In the case where the
senior person present is not immediately able (typing a reply to a question, speaking a
reply via voice, or away from the keyboard), the first person to recognize the need may
say AOD.]
3.
All
members will belong to the fleets yahoo email group and the fleets forum group.
a.
The
e-mail group is for announcements or requests of immediate concern to the whole fleet. It
is not under any circumstances a discussion forum. Arguments,
discussions, excessive joking, and complaints are never appropriate and should be
confined to the proper channels.
b.
The
forum has many topical areas and members should confine communications to the appropriate
area.
c.
You
will use the Chain of Command (CoC) for official communications in the fleet.
d.
Requests,
criticisms, compliments, and complaints should all be handled directly and privately on Gamespy & voice chat or through direct email,
not on the general fleet mail group, or Public Areas of GameSpy or any public voice chat.
e.
If
a member is in doubt as to where to send or post a particular issue they should send it to
the people who need to see it individually.
f.
All
members will use, and be treated with, respect at all times on the communications systems.
Being abusive will not be tolerated. Remember that this is a family fleet so
all language should be appropriate for a family setting (members range from age 12 to 85).
g.
Always
sign your emails with your 32nd call sign so that people know who is speaking.
4.
All
members must maintain a proper uniform.
a.
The
standard uniform consists of the fleet designation, one space, rank and squad designator
(lower case), one space, and name. Example: 32nd cptk Officer.
b.
Members
of the Top Brass have no squad designator and their rank is upper case. Example:
32nd FAD Top Brass.
c.
Members
who are Academy Trainers may add the "Academy Instructors Badge" (^) to their
uniform after squad designation. Example: 32nd cdrr^ Academy Trainer.
d.
Members
who have earned the Gold Wings Award are eligible to represent the fleet in league play as
a Shadow of the 32nd and add s to the front of their uniform.
Example: s32nd fadf Shadow.
e.
Members
who are on "Reserve Status" will replace their rank with "res".
Example: s32nd resb Reserve Officer.
f.
The
cadets uniform is 32nd_rec_name till promoted to cadet then
becomes 32nd_cdt_name
5.
You
will hardly ever be ordered to do anything. This is out of courtesy and respect for
each other. We role-play a military organization, but we will not be ordering you
around all the time. If you are ever given a Lawful Order (i.e. it does not
contravene your human rights, violate International or local law, or violate these rules.)
by a superior officer regardless of squad then you are expected to follow that order. If the order is Lawful but you feel it is unfair
you may appeal to your chain of command at your first opportunity but are still required
to follow it.
6.
The
Top Brass must approve the return of former members of the 32nd to the fleet.
7. Officers will be moved to and from
"Reserve Status" by their squad admiralty. When moving to "Reserve
Status" an officer forfeits their current rank and when returned to "Active
Status" will be given rank at the discretion of their squad admiralty not to exceed
the rank forfeited. The awarding of the rank of Commander or above to individuals
returning from "Reserve Status" also requires Top Brass approval. Squads may not
exceed roster allowances when returning people to "Active Status."
8.
Any officer wishing to transfer from one
squad to another must ask for and receive permission from the admiralty of both squads.
9.
Officers
of the 32nd will be a member of one squad, and have one call sign. Multiple
personalities need not apply.
10. You will report immediately any member of your fleet who
is in major violation of these rules or the Code of Conduct. Anyone in minor
violation you will politely remind of the rules or code.
11. Have Fun. |
