Today marks our Tenth Anniversary

Hello One and All,

Today is a rather special day. Back on 7th November 2005 the Dreadnought officially started as part of Task Force 86 in Bravo Fleet. Today marks our Tenth Anniversary. An entire decade of operations.

Since we started, over that decade the Dreadnought has grown and continuously developed with the contributions, aid and support of an ever evolving roster of members. Together we have seen the ship start as a Galaxy X Class Dreadnought, before moving on to the Ronin Class and then, more recently, transforming into an Ascension Class starship. We have seen members come and go, each leaving their respective legacy in the simms history. Some of us have changed characters over the years to keep the interest and creativity going. Together, with these characters you have helped to create a huge tapestry of work, with almost six-thousand posts (and that's counting JPs as just one!) to twenty-five missions, with our twenty-sixth just beginning.

I'd like to thank everyone both past and current for contributing, investing time and effort to create characters, content and even missions for the group to enjoy. I admit I wondered for a while if the simm would reach its first year, never mind its second, yet here we are at the summit of its tenth. Some of you have been with the simm since the start and be it with the same characters or new ones, you have stayed through ten years of me trying to create new and devious ways to harm you, torture you and generally subject you to my evil whims. One of these days we are going to finally need a Counsellor before we start sniffing Warp plasma!

In all seriousness though, thank you all for being a part of the simm. It has had faced paced lightning moments, it has had slow times and people have come and gone. I sometimes even find myself reading past missions just to immerse myself in the ships history and remember old times. There are some things I hope to improve simm wise such as awards, promotions, art, graphics and such - more content other than just mission posts. Stay tuned.

I had planned to get a cake, the only problem was that you guys are not here to share in its deliciousness, therefore leaving it to me to eat it all and in my greying, progressive years I don't think I could handle all that sugar. :D

In any case, thank you all again for helping the simm reach this point, to creating content for others to enjoy, for sticking with me and my antics for this long. I hope that together we can see the simm moving forward over the next year and more - here's to another decade.

Kind Regards,

Teh Kitteh
