Xean in his fleet thread used the term "trek league."

If I'm not mistaken a goon owns the fleet "trek league."

Xean should be warned against trying to co opt the name of a dental network fleet if he is unwilling to pledge fealty.

If he wants to mooch off our good name, he needs to bend the knee first.

Have you seen these posts?
They're pretty popular on Reddit.
Some dev quotes from reddit


You can control donation input by type, or by project slot.
So you can allow or disallow any particular item, like Dilithium, Expertise, Duty Officers, etc. And you can also control whether the project slot is up for donation, so only your immediate fleet could donate to it.



Every Fleet in the Armada gets a dilithium discount on their fleet projects. However, the size of that discount changes based on the position of the Fleet in the Armada. Alpha Fleets get the smallest dilithium discounts, Beta Fleets get a bigger discount than Alphas, and Gammas get the largest discount of them all.
On the flipside though, Alphas get the best skill point bonus, and Gammas get the smallest.

Honestly, inviting him to put together a fleet league is the final piece standing in the way of selling the info we've been gathering for years. With this, we'll *finally* get that pay day on egpal we've been waiting for.

My cut is still .0002%, right? I collected some contraband and gave it mondian one time, I think. I mean, not gave. He paid me.

This is the OC-TBirds-XTERN1TY-Galactic-Good Guys & Allies original Trek League, not yours. Fine one you are to complain when you're the guys who copied our Fleet of the Future motto without permission. And don't confuse us with your fake XTERNLTY alt fleet either. Fake it all you want, you'll just have to settle for second. It'll always be our original motto, just as this is OUR thread where you, your fleet and your trolling are not welcome. See the thread title? It says XTERN1TY not Dental. Learn to read.

You should go in that thread and tell him if he wants to be part of the Trek League he needs to actually pledge fealty with the armada thing to the real Trek League fleet or else cease and desist using your fleet's name without permission.

Oh huh. While it's irrelevant to almost everyone, the D'kora gets access to the type 4 Ferengi skin if you have the Nandi. That's unexpected and nice, even if it's obsolete. :toot:

EDIT: Also I love that Cryptic's solution to multiple [W>S] mods on warp cores not stacking is to just convert all cores that have it at rare to [A>S] instead and not have [W>S] appear on non-epic cores. :ughh:

Hey, so I'm confused, as this thread exists, yet the Starfleet Dental thread under the Private Game Servers thread says it has nothing to do with the current SFD in STO. So how on Earth do I join? I've given up looking at this game with a serious cynical eye, and just want to dick about; this seems like the right place.
