I remember it has been discussed on the old Discord and found approval back in the days but never really got continued, but I think a general 'Wanted' area might be beneficial.
I know the concept from many non-ST forums and found, that a lot of people browsing the site tend to look into a wanted section as one of the first things before deciding to make a character.
Those sections usually consist of an area for offering characters, and one for character/group requests.
I think a model that would work very well with the fleet might consist of:
- a board for
open positions, where players can check out vacant posts aboard the Amalthea and Katra and see what might be needed at the moment,
- one board for
character requests [Example:
Sirol looking for scientific lab assistant],
- and one section for
character offers, aka providing NPCs that can be 'adopted' by people. [Example:
Offering Astrometrics Ensign Murphy for adoption]
The entire are could maybe look somewhat like this:
