Hi Starfleet. Just wanted to say it brings me joy to see SF alive and kicking after all these years. I first joined back in 2001, and it was a very different place back then supporting only Star Trek games, and due to the technology of the day was mostly forums-based and small games over TCP/IP rather than voice chat and always-on servers. Nevertheless, I still see in this SF signs of that original spirit which made this Fleet such a pleasure to be a part of. I also see that despite so much time passing, some of the people I knew back then are still around today. Your Fleet Admiral has become himself a relic, I don't think anyone in the community has served as long in a leadership position as he, and in my estimation he is a big reason why SF is still around when so many other great fleets have faded into the sunset. I see in the officer lists of SF some familiar names, including from places like FC and UFP, fleets with long and rich histories of their own that simply have come to a natural end. But not SF. Keep up the good work SF, and all the best for the next 25+ years. Peace.

Hey Felix... Goodness it's been ages. Nice to see you again. I've been well, at the tail end of my PhD. Really busy with that and work. It is truly a gift to see SF still around and kicking. So many Fleets, so many pillars of the community have gone. All I see is SF and a sea of fickle STO Fleets. How have things been around here?

Picard speaks for us both, and we would quite like to give SF another try. I don't have a great deal of time for the next month, finishing off my thesis... but over the summer break I wouldn't mind catching up on 12 years of missed SF. I'm not really active in gaming, but I'm pretty decent web and graphics designer and could help out there. Though if you guys like star citizen.... gaming might be back on the table. Hope to hear from you soon!
