Member Categories

Members of the USS Dauntless are welcome to choose their own level of involvement. To help the volunteer team manage all the different choices available, the members of the crew are divided into five categories:

Active Duty Members

Members who are actively involved in USS Dauntless activities. All Active Duty Members are required to comply with the Dauntless Privacy Policy.

Duty Station holders

Volunteers who are prepared to be actively involved in the running of the ship.

We hope that all members will choose to be Duty Station holders. For this reason, these members are awarded rank promotions and other accolades at a higher rate than all other members, in recognition of their efforts. Volunteering is prestigious, and we endeavour to make sure it's never thankless.

Standard Position holders

Members who want to be actively involved, but don't wish to carry any responsibility.

We understand that not everyone is able to commit to serving in a Duty Station. Members who still wish to be a part of the Dauntless family are always welcome. Standard Position holders are invited (but not obliged) to earn the necessary qualifications to perform a Duty Station role at some point in the future.

Recruits

Crew-members who have yet to request assignment as either Standard Position or Duty Station holders.

Intended as a temporary status, Recruits are expected to choose a Department to serve in, so they can transition into either a Standard Position or Duty Station holder. Recruits are expected to make this choice within 30 days of joining the crew.

Non-Active Duty Members

Members who meet the minimum requirements of membership, but are not actively involved. While considered members of the crew in principle, they have very limited access to Dauntless systems, and are thus not functioning members in any practical way.

Non-Active Duty Members have the right to reactivate their memberships at any time by completing this form.

Passengers

Members in good standing of STARFLEET International who have selected the USS Dauntless as their chapter of choice, but have not completed the Dauntless on-boarding process.

Reserves

Crew-members who meet the minimum requirements for Dauntless membership and have completed on-boarding, but who do not participate in ship's activities.

This is a category for members who choose to be entirely passive in their Dauntless membership. Active Duty Members may opt to stand down and become Reserves. As a Reserve, their only obligations are:

To remain subscribed to the USS Dauntless Discord server;
To check in with the Second Officer a minimum of one time per calendar year.

Reserves have limited access to Dauntless facilities, but are welcome to participate in Dauntless activities as appropriate.

Reserves are free to return to Active Duty at any time, if eligible.
