You mustn't unless you wish to join the Blessed Darkness Assault Fleet. Only members of the fleet can have access to the fleet's services. We're planning to provide some services to members of friendly and allied units on conditions and in quantities defined by the fleet's Diplomatic Corps.

  Loyalty to all members and unquestioning obedience to the Command Staff's orders.

  Every decision on the matter of multiclans members stands upon an individual member. Do not forget to inform a person recruiting you about your intention to become a multiclans member. Under no circumstances members, which are hiding their true identity will be kept within the fleet whatever their reasons for the information hiding are. We do not like spies and are not limited by any moral codes in dealing with them. If you are wise enough you will take this as a warning. You won't get another.

  By filling out the fleet's Join Application. You'll be asked to confirm your registration with a confirmation code sent on your e-mail address before your join request will be authorised by a recruiting officer.

  If you became a member of the fleet after 2002 your record should still be in the current system's databases. Search in the Reserve Personnel roster and submit a request through the Return to Active Duty form.

  The system blocks submitting of any form that's not originated from the fleet's server. If you're getting the "Referer Failed" error it's very likely you've got a web cashing program, one of those advertised as "Internet Access Accelerators" and which are storing all the browsing contents on your HDD. While you are using such programs all submitting forms are not located to the server but on your HDD. Check also your firewall and antiviruses programs which may produce the same effect.

  Every field must contain valid data. For example any word-boundary chars in a numeric field will trigger the system blocking. Also check name fields (including Call Sign) for titles (such as "Emperor", "Admiral", "Darth", etc.) in them. All titles are automatically displayed at the Order's pages depending on a member's rank and command positions.

  Check your e-mail box for a confirmation code and instructions. If you've confirmed your registration (Confirm Registration option) you may request transfer to a specific Sector/Division by using the Select Destination option.

  Joining a Sector or Division dedicated to the game you're playing is the best way to speed up your application's authorisation and becoming a full member of the fleet.

  Leaders of the fleet's Divisions may want to know more about new recruits before to allow them to join. When you select a Sector/Division you may be asked for additional information. Different Divisions may have different sets of questions. Also you'll have to provide your application's number and password you used during the registration. As soon as you answer the selected Sector/Division's questions the Division's Command Staff will be notified about a new recruit.

  We've got obligations to no one but to our members. The members' information won't be given to anyone whatever the reasons for a request might be.

  As soon as your join request is authorised and a member's ID number is assigned you will get a notification on your e-mail address. You will be able to log in with the member ID and password you used during your registration.

  No, you cannot. An application's number and member's ID number are different matters. It's not completely impossible that a member gets an ID coinciding with his application's number but even if it's the case you won't be able to log in until your ID is assigned and your profile is activated after authorisation by the fleet's recruiting officers.

  Your very next step after registration at the fleet pages should be registration at the Plexus. It's where all news are coming from. Also it's a good place to keep in touch with your division's mates and find even more new friends. The posting is allowed only to registered and authorised members there. Use the name you entered in your application or your call sign so, the administration can distinguish you from the cattle of spammers trying to get through.

  Make sure you're using the Plexus' name and password, not the fleet's ones for loging in. Enable cookies in your browser. Check if the Plexus' URL (or cookies) is listed as blocked by any firewall software you're running on your machine. Some of such software may consider the script's readdressing to be a pop-up and block it.

  "Not actually an oxymoron. It's the color past ultra violet. The technical term for it is infra black. It can be seen quite easily under experimental conditions. To perform the experiment simply select a healthy brick wall with a good run up, and, lowering your head, charge. The color that flashes in, bursts behind your eyes, behind the pain, just before you die, is infra black."
