Elwyn Eternity, our home server, is reseting when the weapons update lands as part of its efforts to reignite interest in the server. We have seen this as a chance to start anew, and restructure Starfleet. Therefore, until this has happened, and star fleet is back in a suitable position to accept members, we are closing recruitment. The current members and heads of departments are already at work planning the new systems, stations and protocols, several new ships are planned, and some are already under-development. A new department is being devised, with dedicated ships and roles across the server.
In the OP, we state:
We, being an inherently peaceful organization, do not actively seek out aggression with other factions. Our weapons are designed for self-defence. However, we will not hesitate to use them against others who would wish to do us, the server, or others harm.
This was not true, and we are sorry to the factions we did harm for mistakes, getting too close to our space, or just flying a ship that looked like a penis. Several factions on elwyn were founded to fight our oppression of the server, and we squashed them rather than listening to them. Many factions have a bad name for this kind of behaviour, and we are ashamed that we have developed the same bad reputation.
A post will be made when recruitment is re-opened after the Elwyn reset and we have set up the foundations for the new faction. No longer will Starfleet be the faction that shoots first, and laughs later. We are striving to build a new, more organised, better Starfleet.
We will be back, as strong as ever, but better suited to bear the name Starfleet.
