ARTICLE I: MISSION STATEMENT

1. The RPG was established on or around stardate 237106.01 (AD1994) for the sole purpose of organizing a non-profit role playing collective, simulating characters, plots and story lines based upon the Star Trek Universe created by Paramount Entertainment. The UFOP has reached a sufficient size by the date of this document and experienced such needs as herein discussed that this CONSTITUTION has become necessary for the continued efficient, fair and expedient administration of the group consistent with the above stated purpose.
2. The UFOP shall always remain a not-for-profit role playing organization, regardless of venue or membership, and regardless of what changes have been amended to this CONSTITUTION consistent with the procedures related herein. If at any point in the future the UFOP shall become otherwise than a non-profit organization or otherwise than a role-playing organization first and foremost, it shall have ceased to resemble the organization for which this document is intended and this document shall be considered abolished.
3. The group is bound to provide its members with a community experience, in which role playing is the primary goal. Otherwise, the group should also provide means by which its members can form friendly relationships on and off their crews. The group should always seek that which is most beneficial to its members, and that which provides the highest quality experience of a Star Trek community. If at any time the group ceases to provide a quality role playing experience, the members or staff are charged with the task of returning the group to its primary goal in a manner which preserves the main and original group, and does not seek to split or divide the RPG.
