STAR TREK SIMMING AT ITS FINEST
The USS Potemkin is a weekly Star Trek simulation set in the late twenty-fourth century, currently nearing the end of 2395. The ship is an Akira class vessel, a powerful yet graceful class of starship seen in the movie Star Trek: First Contact, as well as in episodes of Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Sims are held on Discord and usually run between an hour and a half and two hours.
This simulation is a founding member of the Starfleet Legacy Alliance, an organization dedicated to creating a fun and interesting simming experience for all to enjoy. Anyone is welcome to join in and take part in making Star Trek become reality.
The Potemkin takes on a variety of diverse and unique missions in the Alpha and Beta quadrants of the galaxy. The crew is close-knit, and new members quickly become part of the family. The Potemkin strives to be the best simulation on the Internet. We invite you to learn more and see for yourself just what the Potemkin has to offer!
POTEMKIN HISTORY
The Potemkin has been simming continuously for the last 25 years. From its founding in 1994, it has seen five captains, dozens of crewmembers, and hundreds of missions. The Akira-class Potemkin-C is the sim's third and longest-lived ship, launched in 1997 by Captain Sierra.

Morning/Afternoon/Evening all! (As I don't know when you'll be reading this)
Just as a heads up: the Personnel page of the website has had a few tweaks. With all of the new people coming in, we are wanting to make sure that the filled positions are current. If you have character adjusting to do, feel free. I think I've got all updated that I can with what I have.
If you need help resetting passwords, let command know (it can go in the #general-chit-chat in Discord) and we will get to it as soon as we can.

Alrighty, the website has been updated. Please make sure to update your passwords as soon as possible! If you need a force password reset, lemme know. I'll be gone all week but can try to get to them if I see messages!

Posted on Fri Jul 9th, 2021 @ 6:42am by Commander Jayla Rollands in Website Update
Hey All:
Due to a security patch, the website will be down later this afternoon (or possibly my lunch not sure, likely the 2nd one due to file download times).
Once that is done, I'll post on the Discord as a reminder: but passwords will need to be updated. Not until the update is completed though!
Thanks in advance.

This is partly to test the new Discord bot but...
The website has been updated to:
~Show Rigo's new rank and title.
~Welcome back Garaht.
We are aware that Hotmail/Outlook is bouncing anything coming from the website, which is partly why the bot was added to bring in all posts from the site. It syncs (I believe) hourly.
The site should still be pushing things to the mailstring, but that doesn't mean everyone will get everything.
Plus a note about the site (I might have put this up before but...)
~If you work on a joint post, unless both people 'save' it on the website before it is posted, it will only show the person who posted it as being part of the post.
That means that if it is worked on externally (Google Docs/messengers) and one person copy/pastes it and posts it, only their name will show on the authors.
I think that's it!

Posted on Sun Jun 28th, 2020 @ 9:05am by Commander Jayla Rollands in Website Update
Hello everyone!
First announcement of the new site.
There were awards given to Warp, Arnet, Prax, and Bom years ago. Well, the awards still exist!
While Warp's is assigned to him, due to the other three only being listed but not assigned to a 'player', I can't assign the awards to them.
However, they can be viewed here. I am aware the full images don't fit into the skin, but can't re-size the images easily with how they were made.
