Hello,
I'm Guinan. Welcome to Ten Forward! Ten Forward is a lounge located at
the tip of the saucer section of the USS Enterprise E (the Federation
flagship). Here crewmembers gather to share their thoughts, to mingle
or simply admire the views from the large windows. Any topic is open for
discussion, within reason - we all know what happens when you provoke
a Klingon! The Enterprise is currently docked at Outpost
10F, along with the Klingon vessel Rotarran
and the Romulan ship D'Deridex.
All races are more than welcome to visit any of the ships docked at Outpost
10F.
Every member of Outpost 10F has a clearance level. If you decide to register you'll be assigned a clearance level of two. You'll have the same clearance level no matter which affiliation you choose. (You can participate in the chatroom without registering, but you won't have access to all of its special features.) As you become more involved in Outpost 10F's departments, activities and events, you'll have the opportunity to gain higher clearance levels. The highest a crewmember may be promoted to is clearance level eleven. In order to become promoted you must exhibit good behavior, follow our Prime Directives (listed below), and be respectful of fellow officers. As you work your way up the rank ladder you'll earn various privileges. These include general armory usage at clearance level four, HTML abilities at clearance level six, and special login features at clearance level seven. You can order drinks and meals for yourself and your fellow crewmembers from my bar. Officers with a clearance level of four and above have access to our armory, which contains various weapons. Some are used purely for entertainment whilst others are used to remove any unwanted guests. There are a few simple rules we follow at Outpost 10F, which we call our Prime Directives. We're a family-friendly and global community, so these Directives are for the protection of all our members. Please do your best to follow them, and feel free to ask another officer if there is something you don't understand. Prime Directives
A more detailed version of these directives can be found here. I'd like to introduce you to some of my friends that will assist you in getting acquainted with Ten Forward and Outpost10F. The Sector Commander and Deputy Sector Commander are both here to oversee chat operations, coordinate promotions, assist with special projects, and be available to the members to address their concerns. Please feel free to contact them at any time with chatroom issues. The Intelligence and Security Agency (ISA) is a group that helps in the chatroom in many ways. They keep us informed about the latest viruses and remind members of the Prime Directives when necessary. While these members do carry phasers and are able to remove troublemakers in the chatroom, their main goal is to keep our chatrooms safe and family-friendly. Another team of people who are here to assist you are the members of the Welcome Committee. You will hear from one of them when you register, and their job in the chatrooms is to be available to assist you as you get used to our systems and functions. Finally, I suggest you check out the following links. These pages contain information that will help you understand our systems and structure. The documentation site contains detailed information regarding various aspects of Outpost 10F. Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, our tutorial fish, has some information about using the chat interface. You can also read detailed information about the role of promotions at Outpost 10F and use the Profile Management System to manage your member data and view your access rights. Thank you for your patronage, and welcome to Ten Forward! Remember, I'm always listening. |
