Too many years playing PBeMs?
Anthony seems to be destined to hang around forever!
VERY Brief Overview
It's a long, long, long tale too much to go into here, so... blah, 1997, blah, met someone in the FGN, moved 12,000 miles, married them, made Phoenix, Freedom, Utopia Planitia, SFI, Utopia Planitia+Bravofleet, Freedom again, met 15 or so other PBeMers around the world, including New Zealand, Hawaii, Canada, UK... still playing.
Made the website 6 times over, there will be no more! Ever! Stop sniggering Trout!
First and only CO was Arnaud Malhere, one of the original founders of the FGN, I made CO in May 1998. Thanks to Ian Walker, Phil Rothwell, Justin Smith and anyone else around from the old, old days (if you find this via Google, surprise!).
More fantastic FOs than you can shake a stick at, including Liz Gueken, Wendy Gibson, Wendy Keen, Jo Goodman, Katherine Mazurok, and of course, Alan Reading... go Alan!
Trained Liz in the Academy, go figure, she graduated in like 2 posts... always could spot the great posters! I never went to the Academy myself, does it show?
If it wasn't for Liz and Jeremy, there would be no Freedom, Liz was my original Squadron FO for Phoenix and my Squadron FO for Freedom... no Trout, and no website seeing he made 99.9% of the database and content and has been running Freedom better than anyone including me for years.
The game runs on its Academy and without intructors and a co-ordinator, there is no game, the position of Academy CO and FO has changed a fair amount of the years, but its running better now than I've ever seen it, thanks to Jeff's hard work and that includes back in the day when we had 12 holodecks running 6 cadets each, back in 1998 in the FGN.
Without COs and FOs making sacrifies and contributions to their ships, there is no game... being a CO isn't an easy matter, no matter what you see on the surface, COs work 100s of times harder than anyone else on their ships.
Finally, without players there is no, erm game... again. It's more to just post your 2 posts a week, the members who are always in the forums and members thinking up new ideas are a great asset to the game.
Easy to go on and on about the old days, but we have some great and new people playing now better than us old crusty people, not least, Kevin, Jeff, Charles, Alan, Calvin, Stacey, Spencer... and forgive me not for mentioning everyone! I'm not as around as I was!!
Purchased www.sfintel.com and then later one www.utopiaplanitia.net and then www.startrekfreedom.com, sfintel was always suppose to be a game based on Starfleet Intelligence, another idea were tried but we went with Utopia Planitia instead
