Heya everyone,

How's tricks lately? Anyone up to some michevious activty in the ghettos in their cities? If so, count me in, lol! Anywho, summer's almost over (some of us are thanking God for that, an others are probably angry becuase of it...) and I'm looking forward to September coming back to us.

At this time, I'd like to welcome Ensign Eric Jericho, Assistant Chief Security/Tactical Officer; and Lieutenant JG Ryan Worthington, Chief Engineering Officer to the sim. All oriental delicasies are available for you to munch and slurp down on! :D

Also, I've now been able to deliver some well-deserved promotions over the past year. Please join me in congratulating Commander Chae-kyung Min, Lieutenant Brynr Lutan, Lieutenant Chance Berdas, Marine Captain Samantha Harrington and Lieutenant JG Alice Rose on their ups in the ranks! Also, Alice Rose was departmentally promoted to Chief Security/Tactical Officer as well. Very well done guys, I'm so very proud of you all! xD

In other news, Shoreleave has officially begun! Everyone is encouraged to start their vacationing on Qo'nos and have a good time with it. A message will follow on the OOC list regarding specific events that we're planning, so please be on the lookout for that. ;)

Please make sure that if you're not on official LOA, that you remain active. I realize that it's summer still, but I need everyone's help in maintaining the focus and drive of the sim...I can't do this alone. Please start increasing the frequency of your tags in JPs and don't be afraid to seek other simmers out to indulge your own creative ideas. Let's keep the game as it should be, a fun place where everyone cares about each other and wants to see success happen, rather than the sim just being a burden to keep up with. :P

And that's about it for this news item. Thank you for reading; I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed typing it, lol. I'm going to go back to posting now, but don't be afraid to contact me or Commander Min if something's on your mind. Peace! :)

Cheers,
+Stephen

Hello!

I hope everyone has had a pleasant July, I know I had a nice vacation! I just want to apologize to those I was in the middle of writing posts with for my longer-than-anticipated leave of absence. But I'm back and better than ever!

I'm sorry, I had to do it. I very rarely get the opportunity to use that Austin Powers line. Anyway....

Hello, everyone. I just wanted to officially introduce myself OOC to you all since I hope to be simming with each and every one of you during my tenure here. My name is Patrik and I, as you may or may not already know, portray Eric Jericho the Assistant Chief Security/Tactical Officer.

I love meeting new people and am always willing to do a JP if asked, I will very rarely turn anyone down and if I do, I usually have a very good reason. So if you would ever like to sim with Eric, just send me a PM and we can get one rolling.

I have a decent amount of RP experience and have one been on a Star Trek sim on two different ocassions. The first was two maybe three years ago and I can't even remember anything about it. The most recent was, as some of you may have already put together, was at the beginning of the year as 2LT Stone. I apologize for my sudden disappearance, but my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer at that time and it was a very hectic time for the entire family and I couldn't get back into simming.

Since then, he has pulled through and is doing quite well and I have finally managed to sit back down and get time to myself. Just so you know, I don't just disappear like that without prior notice so it will not happen again.

Anyway, I just felt the need to let you all know who I am and that I am here and willing to sim with all of you. LET'S HAVE FUN! That's why we are all here for anyway, right? :)
