"...Because we choose to."

It has been a very long road for us, and I would like to take a moment and thank everyone for what they have contributed in creating and maintaining this fleet. However, I must announce that on April 15th, the Project Navras fleet will be merging into a larger fleet, which consists primarily of members of STARFLEET, The International Star Trek Fan Association, Inc.

This is a decision that has been made due to the severe inactivity in Project Navras, and the lack of interest shown by members regarding the Monthly Fleet Meetings. It is my hope that by merging the remnants of Project Navras into this larger fleet, we will be putting ourselves around a much larger group of active individuals, which will in turn result in an increase of our own activity in-game.

What follows is a few notes that all members should be made aware of, regarding this merge, and what it means to you:

1. On April 15th, the Project Navras forums will be shut down and locked. ProjectNavras.com will be redirected to the USSNavras.com website, where forums will exist for those of us who play Star Trek Online to continue our communications.

2. The 'House of Navras' KDF fleet will continue to exist, as it has, prior to now, along with the Navras XMPP chat channel.

3. Those of you who wish to follow the merge, and join the new fleet, will be required to send me an in-game mail, to Roger Frost@Solipsis, so that you can be invited to the new fleet once the merger is complete. If you do not wish to follow along with us during this merger, then we will certainly respect your decision and wish you well in all of the endeavours that you strive to pursue.

4. Anyone wishing to join the new fleet will NOT be required to join SFI, or the U.S.S. Navras-- however, as we have always done in Project Navras, members will always be ENCOURAGED to join SFI. Making the plunge will be your decision, and you will not be griefed into it.

5. Upon merging, the entire contents of the Project Navras Fleet Bank will be transferred to the fleet bank of the new fleet.

6. Once the merge has been completed, I will no longer be in charge of the fleet. Subsequently, all Fleet Officers of Project Navras will be removed from their positions. Should any positions in the new fleet become available, I will happily provide a recommendation, based on the work you have done for me in the past.

In short, ladies and gentlemen, it has been fun-- and as much as I would like for us to revive to the status that we had in the past, I do not see it happening. Regardless, something inevitably has to change, and I see this being the most positive change that we can make. I do sincerely hope to see many of you wish us, once this merge has been completed, but if you do decide to jump ship, I will completely understand.

Thank you again, and Live Long and Prosper.
