Pips

Hey, Salak, look at the discussion here. -Varaan 08:00, 5 December 2007 (CST)

The gold Captains pips I only added because someone was already using them and the pips were trying to be like mine, but looked horrible next to all the other perfectly good ones, so... not my fault, but I'll fix it anyway. What do you think of the updated Ronin NPC listing? :) Wasn't sure what to do with the Civies, but the rest were simple. -Jackford B. Kolk 09:06, 5 December 2007 (CST)

marine Ranks?

Hey Salak I just want to make a request that you and wolfie, and the gang look into this please.

Right now in Reality, the Marine Corps. belong to the Army, and have army ranks despite being involved with the Air Force and Navy! Now a good friend told me that SB:118 does not allow marine ranks. why not? aren't we suppose to make this as realistic as possible?

BFinfobase have the pip images and you can go on wiki, to see the comparative which is the following:

Ensign : 2nd Lieutenant
Lieutenant J.G. :1st Lieutenant
Lieutenant : Captain
Lieutenant Commander : Major
Cmdr. : Lieutenant-colonel
Capt. : Colonel
Commodore : Brigadier-General
Rear Admiral : Major-General
Vice Admiral : Lieutenant-general
Admiral : General
Fleet Admiral : Marshall

I think adding this to applicants form will also add a new dimension to our entire simming, and the department is known as "Marine Corpoarations of dettachment"

even Memory alpha have these ranks listed...

I hope you do accept this suggestion. :)

Some considerations

Hello there.

Salak, I've been talking with our good friend Zekyel about this.

Memory Alpha has a Comparative Chart for StarFleet Ranks and 21st Century Mil.

The discussion here is: Can a SIMMER use the 21st Rank structure for Marines and other Ground based military units on SB118?

As far as I know, StarFleet re-structured the entire military ranks, so the Marine Corps use the same structure.

Actually, Marine Corps are not officially listed as valid Post of Duty on SB118.


What do you think my friend?

Regards!

Lt. Julio Vannini

Jhen

No that was me! When I applied the character was called Jhan but I mistyped it as Jhen later on and it stuck. Hutch 04:55, 23 December 2007 (CST)

Boiler Templates

Whoops... forgot that *chuckle* DCody 08:29, 2 January 2008 (CST)

Ship Navs

I've been cruising the Help Section and familiarizing with what you, Varaan and Wolf have been doing and have a question: would it be easier for what remaining Fleet ships are left that do not have navs to create templates for the specific area (Active, Inactive, LoD) as was already done for the boiler templates? DCody 18:26, 4 January 2008 (CST)

  • Yep... that's the idea, in any case. -lol DCody 10:16, 11 January 2008 (CST)

StarFleet

Poo on you. I like StarFleet better! --Wolf /talk page 12:25, 13 January 2008 (CST)

Hiding boilerplates

I don't know how it works. You should find an example on Wikipedia, look at it's template page, see how it works, and try it here :) I don't think it has anything to do with javascript or HTML -- I'm sure it's a function built into the wiki. --Wolf /talk page 18:22, 14 January 2008 (CST)

SB118 Attached

I'm curious as to why you're listing the Constitution and Ronin as SB118 attached? Also, we can remove the Columbia, as that's really more just an Inactive ship. And I'd call these "Attached Sites" or "Attached Installations" or "Attached Outposts" or something similar, since they're not all ships. --Wolf /talk page 18:37, 14 January 2008 (CST)

Mainpage Pic

I'm trying to get a drop shadow in behind, and one extension makes it solid, another leaves it as a drop shadow but puts an ugly colour in the background that isn't supposed to be there, etc. Each one looks fine in photo shop, and crap when I upload it here! -Varaan 13:23, 29 January 2008 (CST)

Finally got one! BTW, what do you think of the new upper section of the mainpage I did? Good points, bad points? -Varaan 13:27, 29 January 2008 (CST)

RE: Template:Susan Banks

Hi Salak, I've been trying to get the menu on the left... period. Only have it on there. I finally figured a way to do it. I DID create a template. But when I put

at the top of the main page it didn't show up. So I did the next best thing I could think of: I put the entire code in. And it worked, too. I really don't want anything complicated. Just the two pages.

Instructions are not for beginners. I've found that once I learn how to do it, then I can understand the instructions. I really do want to learn this. I'm reading the instructions over and over again. Somehow I'm missing something. Susan Banks 10:01, 30 January 2008 (CST)
