The Way of the Warrior tlhIngan maH - We are Klingon We are a collection of RPGers from around the world who, for the most part, are Klingon at heart. We have formed our own house where we dedicate ourselves to The Way of the Warrior. Honor Loyalty Duty And Glorious battle! Klingons who follow the Way of the Warrior, the belief system developed by Kahless the Unforgettable, value honor above all else. Warriors who die an honorable death are said to join Kahless, the first Klingon Emperor, in the Black Fleet in Sto-Vo-Kor, a paradise where battle and feasting can eternally be shared and won. They can even command a Black Fleet Ship in which they endlessly wage glorious combat, against worthy foes who have also entered the ranks of the dead. About the Alliance Sto-Vo-Kor [SVK] is an alliance created by Aga Memnon for former members of the Klingon Black Fleet that were unhappy with the May 2010 scandal involving unapologetic cheating by several members in leadership positions of KBF. In an attempt to play the game fairly and with honor, Sto-Vo-Kor was created as the new home of the Black Fleet. Alliance with great camaraderie Council of Officers that vote on key issues, currently lead by Mophius Bi-annual Leadership elections. Members help each other with advice and in-game assistance "Ask the Experts" Q&A Forum that is always answered and never rejected with "go read the wiki!" Our NAPs Do to the limited number of players in the game SVK is no longer accepting NAPs. However should the player base again increase the below lists the conditions of any and all NAPs. We value Non-Aggression Pacts and honor them in perpetuity. The terms of our NAPs are as follows: No member of either alliance shall probe or attack an active member of the other alliance. Inactives are fair game. Resources acquired from an inactive player will not be repaid if that player later becomes active. This Agreement does NOT require any member of SVK to defend any member of the other alliance or vice-versa. This agreement is NOT a Mutual Defense Pact. Any defense offered to the other alliance is wholly and totally an individual decision by that member. This Agreement prohibits members of either alliance from participating with their allies in a group attack upon members of either alliance. Any violation of this clause will constitute a violation of Clause 4. All members of each alliance in this agreement shall abide by this Non-Aggression Pact or face expulsion from their alliance. The failure of the alliance leadership to expel a member who knowingly violates this agreement will render this agreement void. An attempt can be made by the Aggressor to make 125% reparations (of the losses) and formally apologize to the attacked as well as the Leader of both alliances in an attempt to show remorse. This addresses the potential for people to be unaware that a NAP existed. All members of both alliances agree to the rules (written or implied) of Starfleet Commander by Blue Frog Gaming and shall not use loopholes in the rules to excuse dishonorable conduct. Any member of either alliance who becomes aware, or is aware, of any rules violations by any player in the game will immediately inform their alliance leadership and Blue Frog Gaming via a support ticket. The alliance leader or his/her designee will inform the other alliance leadership of the rules violation. This agreement will continue in force in perpetuity. Both parties agree that no hostile action will be taken by either party upon the other without 24 hours written notice to the leadership of the other alliance of the intent to revoke this agreement. NAPs will be reviewed every 6 months to see if they are delivering value / mutual assistance in some strategic or tactical way. This can be as basic as ongoing commitments between members located near each other, or as entwined as joint operations against common enemies. Membership - Recruitment New recruits: Should be ranked about 2000. Must have a reason for wanting to join. Meaning you know an SVK member and were invited by them to join. Membership requests must include the following. Planet Locations Who Referred You Any Prior Alliance When applying provide the indicated information. Failure to provide it results in a request to provide answers to those questions. Any Officer can handle a recruitment it depends on who is available and in the mood. They're simple questions with simple answers. They don't need to have a profound justification. These conditions are what leads to the camaraderie we've developed in this alliance! Rules Some general guidelines on a code of conduct following the Way of the Warrior as prescribed by Kahless the Unforgettable on Star Trek, TNG, DS9. We will not tell you who you can or can't attack as some alliances do. Role Call: There will be a thread that must be signed upon login so that members know who is available to assist. A simple "SaH" (verb) be present (not absent) is required. Peace is acceptable to the Klingon Empire. NAPs WILL be honored and so will ceasefires. Warriors breaking either will be expected to make reparations to restore their honor. Members cannot put unofficial NAPs in place at an alliance level. There is no way of tracking it. Members can however recommend a particular alliance and it will be investigated by the Officers and voted upon if the other side is willing. If attacking a player, don't pound them into the ground. Hit them once and if they contact you asking you to stop, consider honoring the request. Help them back to their feet. You can make a friend this way and friends are better than enemies. Show respect especially to those within the alliance. If responding with criticism to an idea, be positive & constructive! Not negative and destructive!! If you can't suggest any alternative, then you probably don't have anything to criticize! Respond not with nasty words to an enemy or a member of the alliance. Try rising above it and taking the moral high ground and reasoning with them. If that doesn't work out, ignore them. No need to be a jerk to jerks! Farming inactives is fine! (i)(I) You may attack any inactive player, including our own, without permission. If you do attack an inactive SVK SuvwI', you are honor bound to help them get back on they're feet if they return. Attacking "active players" that have left their fleets at a planet is fine, since their warships shoot back it is indeed honorable conduct! Don't come crying if you forget to FRS, No Fleetsave = No Fleet. Play how you want. You want to be in d mode? Fine, no questions asked. No criticism given. There are more than enough Warrior Spirits to do the heavy-lifting and from time-to-time we all need to go into d. Leadership The Leadership comes up for re-election every 6 months. The ranks in Sto-Vo-Kor are based on game rank, not some popularity contest based on how you kiss the Leader's ass or play politics. Anyone can become the Leader through hard-work and service to the alliance. Officers All Officers share the same duties, there are no people in charge of recruiting or diplomacy or this or that. No bureaucracy. The Officer dealing with an issue is in charge of that particular issue and it doesn't matter what it is about. The Officer presents his findings to the Council, the Council votes. A decision is made. Done. Alliance Ranks Ranks are not handed out by winning a popularity contest they are attributed by your hard work only and reflected by your Game Rank. End of story!
