- Real name: Sami
- Age: 20
- Location: London, UK (GMT/UTC +0)
- Characters: Nat@notimefortacos (FED)
- Previous fleets: Federation Bushrangers (2013-2015), REDdit Alert (Sporadically from 2016-present)
- Why join the Mighty 44th? Since my first fleet’s main playerbase petered out around late 2015 along with my own playtime degrading over time, I have struggled to find anywhere to settle down into a community in STO,recently however I’ve picked STO up again, and I’m finally looking to settle down into a group. Belonging to a community is something I have wanted to to do in any game I play, and you guys look like the fleet I want to belong to.
- Tell us about yourself: Hi, I’m Sami (short for Samantha), a 20 year old trans gal from London. I’ve been playing STO since it went F2P back in 2012, but my mains have switched out more than a few times since then, I’m currently rocking a Fed Engineer, which is the only character I have that I can really say that I actively play on. My playstyle I would describe as casual, but I have a pretty strong build and lineup of ships to rock my gear, however I’m a little rusty on piloting. I’m down for almost any activity in the game though, be it helping new players through content, episode marathons, TFO runs or even a smattering of RP here and there. In terms of Fleets, back in 2013 I belonged to an awesome crew of Aussies called the Bushrangers, and I got to know them pretty well at the time, but contact has faded with all but 1. Since then I’ve sort of wandered around not really getting to know anyone else from STO too well, and I hope that’s about to change.
My interests outside STO include pretty much anything Sci-Fi, and, as I grew up in a Star Trek watching family, I’m probably one of the biggest fans of anything Trek that you’ll find (with ENT being my personal favourite). Also a long-time fan of Doctor Who, and my Dinosaur nerd days from when I was a kid have fortunately carried through to my adulthood. In terms of wider gaming, I’m a big fan of anything Bungie, with a pretty unhealthy number of hours in Destiny 2 xD. In terms of a work life, I’ve been in-and-out of a variety of jobs for the past 3 years, unfortunately since COVID hit I’ve been fresh out of luck finding something new, and am waiting with bated breath for the pandemic to settle down so I can get going again. Of course the upside of this is the incredible amount of time I have free at the moment, which I’ve been enjoying quite a bit :).
As for me personally, I’m a bit shy in terms of using a mic for comms primarily because I’m not a very big fan of my own voice. But in text chats I’m more than happy to go on for hours about stuff I can help with/am interested in. I’d like to think of myself as good-humoured and easy-going, and I’d love to contribute to the community you’ve grown here.
- Do you accept the rules and regulations? Yes
What do you mean I do have time for tacos?August 4, 2020 at 10:31 pm #427983Hello Sami!
Thanks for applying to the mighty 44th. You will receive your in-game invite next time you log in.
Join our 44th chat channel “44th-diplo” by typing the following into the chat window: /channel_join 44th-diplo.
This is used to communicate with our 44th Fleet, 44th Delta Fleet, 44th Gamma Fleet and our 44th Assault Squadron (KDF) – we don’t use the in-game fleet channel. We are four fleets acting as one.
As a new 44th Fleet Ensign you will be stationed for 6 weeks in the 44th Delta Fleet, (KDF’s go directly to our 44th Assault Sqn). For a promotion to Lieutenant and fleet store unlock you just need to meet 2 requirements:
1) Must have either logged into the game or posted on our 44th forum at least once during the review period of 2 weeks (which starts today);
2) Must be in good standing with the fleet.The fleet rank of Commander is earned after you’ve been with us for 6 weeks. Upon earning this rank, up to two of your characters can be transferred into 44th Fleet, and up to three can be put into 44th Delta Fleet at your discretion. Any additional characters can be placed in the 44th Gamma Fleet. Our promotion schedule is hosted publicly at our Trello Board.
Full access to the 44th forum has now been unlocked, feel free to look around. Please bookmark this forum to keep up with Fleet news, and see the most recent State of the Fleet to catch up.
Need some help with STO? Check out our FAQ, starting ship builds, and mechanics guide to help you on your way.
We are on twitter and use Discord for voice (not a requirement, but recommended).
As a mature, no-drama fleet the 44th caters to casual and hard-core players, so I’m sure you’ll fit right in.
Welcome aboard !

NP Ship-mate, wait until you get used to all of the Fleet. I think you will find a great deal of help when needed, humor and just plain fun.
