Hi everyone,

I’m moving the discussion of MOO to a separate thread here.

MOO currently reads:

*A Member’s club rank, below the rank of Captain, is defined as the highest role-playing rank that a Member has achieved since he joined STF. Club rank at and above the rank of Captain is determined by the most recent Presidential Edict. A Member at or above the rank of Captain may be recognized for exemplary role-playing and service to the club by promotion by the President in an Edict to the next highest club rank.

Character rank is defined as the rank that a Member’s individual role-playing character has attained.

No Member shall have a character with a character rank higher than the Member’s club rank.*

The original version of MOO qualified the last sentence as follows: “In the case of the ranks Captain, Fleet Captain, Commodore, and Admiral, no Member shall have a character with a character rank higher than the Member’s club rank.” Removing that when the rank structure at Captain and above has made it such that no members can actually be promoted, which is… clearly not intended. :)

My proposal is to add that back with this phrasing: “In the case of the ranks of Captain and above…”. :) We could additionally add a line that “Below the rank of Captain, promotions are governed by the Fleet Command and Other Mundane Matters Bylaw” (which is where it specifies that COs can promote people up to Lt Cmdr and blah blah blah).

  • Sarah, Prez

I’m not seeing a problem with the current wording.
