I. YOUR ACCOUNTYour starting rank is Leutnant zur See, just as the historic U-Boot-Kommandanten usually commenced. This rank progresses exactly as your career progresses. In any case and especially for the beginning, make your Kommandant-thread your starting page. That is the page you are just now looking at. It is going to be the place from where you start as here you find
everything you need. Everytime you get lost, you can simply find it by opening your profile and then clicking on "
".
Your current USER-LEVEL is [
--=|DEF|=-- Newbie]. You now have full access to the forums except specific areas that are only available to contributing members or those who take part in development. You can upgrade your account by contributing to the flotilla or by
making a donation to the group. Also visit the
BUR - Buero des Flottillenchefs and pay attention where you can jump in and help!
II. YOUR DYNAMIC SIGNATUREYou picked it, we fill it with content! We expect that you wear it with proud! We run a program for AUTOMATIC-GENERATED-SIGNATURES that writes the text and awards into it. Everytime you report a patrol, your signature will be updated with personal data and medals etc., you will see. You MUST therefore use this following procedure PRECISELY. But it is VERY easy
if only followed correctly:

IV. IMPORTANTThis is not a child care center, this is an ELITE group. So present due diligence and act Elite!
We have made very bad experiences with ignorant members who did not bother to get things right, which is actually TOTALLY EASY because we provide you with everything necessary. The result of their ignorance always was that their threads looked abandonned because their pictures expired. N-O-B-O-D-Y wants to sit down on saturday evenings and spend extra hours to clean after people who are just plain lazy or careless - and you would not want to know how often people joined who habitually put that useless makework onto our tables - for nothing, no thanks, no donation, nada.
This might sound harsh and rude, but it has never worked in more "polite words": If done wrong and pictures disappear, because you ignore our help, we delete your thread. Easy as that. So get your act together, it is really easy and we do not want to "refry beans" here!
There is much to read and many new options to you. Take your time and remember we all make mistakes, I (Blitzkrieg) probably make the most. But in case you encounter any problems or have any questions, please use your own brain first and try to find a solution in the documentation that we gave you. In any case, do not write mails back and forth, come and talk on Teamspeak or ask in the Buero of the Flottillenchef.
V. TEAMSPEAKTeamspeak is important. Communication is essential! We expect that you talk to us and present considerate behaviour: Nobody is going to chop your head off if you burp once, but if you habitually and regularly do that, everybody else surely WILL get annoyed. The same applies to alcohol consumption, while we do not judge what you do at home, we certainly do not tolerate "liquored-up players" and drunkards. We have already survived Poske/xvii, Urmel/LSH and KapitanDeepblu/Deep Raiders. NO MORE! YOU WILL BE KICKED FROM OUR GAME-SERVER IF FOUND DRUNK OR HIGH!
VI. TOO MUCH? GETTING LOST?Some say our forums are a vast space and there is much to discover. We know. But we cannot do more than writing up help-documents and giving the forum a clean structure. There are lots of boards, but there is really a logic to it all, the most useful areas for you to get started are:
[HOWTO] - Collected Actual Help - Here you will find instructions, step-by-step-guides.
BUR - Buero des Flottillenchefs - Organization of the flotilla and where you can post questions
SP - Single Player Careers & CP - Campaign Participants and here particularly
Aktive KommandantenMP - Multi Player Wolfpack-Actions - where the real fun is...
That is it! There are lots of other boards too, but you can learn about those as you go along. Take a look how other Kommandanten are doing. If in doubt or if you have any questions, come to Teamspeak. Your appearance in the forums is not only highly appreciated, you are also asked to leave some personal foot-prints, so at any rate:
Welcome, enjoy and
show that you are active!
