First, you'll notice there have been a few changes to the forums. Mostly these are just QOL updates, some renaming and reshuffling to be more clear/easier to navigate, but there is one important change. We've combined the roster tag and alt application into one consistent form. There will now be a single thread for each character in the fleet, in the character registry subforum.
The character registry thread documents certain official information about your character. It's used to keep the fleet roster up to date and to ensure that info and updates are handled properly. Any changes to this information (including transfers and promotions) must be requested by posting a reply to your thread.

Next, please note that we put out an overhaul of our AAR format. A guide can be found stickied in the Reports forum, but the gist of it is that we've added several fields to fill out. This should help give everyone a starting point when writing a report, as well as make them easier to read at a glance. There's also a spot to include OOC information, such as who the GM was, and what kind of follow-up is needed.

We've also made some tweaks to the Awards & Medals. A few of the existing graphics have been updated, and we've added a new category of Service Awards. Some of you have been asking for these/making up your own for a while now, so we thought we'd go ahead and provide an official set.
Spoiler: For those of you checking your dossiers, these are the awards with altered graphics:Show
- Christopher Pike Medal of Valor
- Starfleet Citation for Conspicuous Gallantry
- Starfleet Decoration for Gallantry
- Prentares Ribbon of Commendation
- Grankite Order of Tactics
- Zefram Cochrane Medal of Excellence
- Sotarek Citation
- Starfleet Citation for Conspicuous Gallantry
- Starfleet Decoration for Gallantry
- Prentares Ribbon of Commendation
- Grankite Order of Tactics
- Zefram Cochrane Medal of Excellence
- Sotarek Citation

If you haven't done so already, we'd really appreciate it if you took a few minutes to respond to the Argo Fall 2017 Feedback Survey, to help us continue to grow and improve as a fleet. We're considering a follow-up survey for more information, so keep an eye out for that as well.

Finally, just one more reminder about our policy on new/current STO content. We know there's been a lot of new stuff coming out, but we're asking for your continued patience so that we can make sure that when we do canonize this stuff for Argo, we get the most out of it for you to RP that we can.
Thanks for reading and, as always, if you have any questions feel free to reply here or ask a staff member.
