    Yeah, i feel much better being a contributing member than a lieutenant jg.

    Assuming that's what i was of course, never really bothered to check except everytime there's a post like this one.

    I'm such a lemming.

    Does this mean that now we are not in the admiralty we all have to drop our insane plans for world domination?

    I really liked the old Starfleet ranks.

    Something like
    Ensign
    Lieutenant JG
    Lieutenant
    Lieutenant commander
    Commander

    These ranks are kind of... impersonal

    Hmm.... I'm not really all that new either. I just lurk... like the creature from the black lagoon, I guess.

    And it was all part of my cunning plan to be a cadet for four years to represent a true cadet, such is my dedication to Trek authenticity....

    ..or that's my excuse.

    Love to see the Starfleet ranks returning ...

    Also, the new ones make us sound like UFP members ... it says that I ... participate... what does that mean? am I important enough to have a Sovereign assigned to my defence then?

    I sense a Conspiracy (TNG episode with evil admiral) or even Insurrection (another TNG movie with evil admiral) and I am a human, not even psi sensitive ... where are all the Betazoids, what happen with our first telepathic line of defence ...

    Hey that would be an idea. Let's "trekkify" it :

    Human
    Ship's Captain
    Calamarain
    Olympian
    Organian
    Prophet
    Q (=moderators)

    I am dead. As of this moment, we are all dead. We go into battle to reclaim our lives. This we do gladly because we are Jem’Hadar. Remember, victory is life.

    Cool

    Hey if the purpose of the ranks name change is to make the forum less Trek-specific because of an upcoming LOTR RPG section, why not merge the two universes in the ranks names ?

    Wich would give us something like :

    Hobbit Cadet
    Human Ensign
    Dwarf Lieutenant j.g
    Elven Lieutenant
    < Whatever Gandalf is > Commander
    < Something else I have no idea about because I don't know LOTR well > Captain

    The Moderators could also get cool names like :

    Nazgul Commodore
    Balrog Admiral


    etc...
