Happy Birthday, 15 Years Old.

Hello One & All.

Today is a special day for the simm, it turns 15 years old.

It's been a long journey especially for those that have stuck with it since the start and a massive thank you to those that have stayed through thick and thin, the death antics I subject you to all the way to the quiet times of activity. From starting in a Play By Forum set up and moving to a Nova many, many years later, from one fleet to another, it's continued in one class or another to what it is now.

Recently the simm was relaunched with a fresh outlook, new perspective and an even keel in terms of focus when it comes to missions, content and character development. I'd spoken to the player base who said they would stay so massive thank you for the dedication and loyalty that's been shown. Some of the additions will be awards, IC promotions, better encouragement for crew to interact with others as well as plot development opportunities for character development outside the norm. One change I am keen to do is play more on what the ship can do rather than it be just a generic 'ship'. The Valkyrie class has a lot to offer and can do a lot in terms of content but has not been fully used in any meaningful way for a mission or a long term plot arc.

I'd like to change that.

It's my hope that with a more involved hands on approach, a renewed eagerness to write I can not only continue to present a setting in which to create content on, but also develop the characters over time with the knowledge that the simm will not vanish out of the blue. Last month we broke 20 posts, which was exactly what I was hoping to do so already we are off to a good start. I know I have said before it's not about numbers but content however there needs to be content, doesn't look good if the Fleet XO's Flagship is not content creating.

Thank you to all and let's see what another year of the Captain trying to kill people brings.

Regards

Steve
