Eternal Protocols

Check In Regularly: Members are expected to periodically check the Eternal Discord and respond to messages from leadership. Silent dormancy weakens the whole.
Minimum Participation: No regular activity is required unless you sign up for an Eternal operation. That said, we encourage you to stay engaged—strength comes from unity.
Voice Channel Presence: If you are playing Star Citizen with other Eternal members, you are expected to be in the Eternal Discord voice channels. Visibility helps us grow, and scale is essential to our mission.
Comms Standards:
A working headset and push-to-talk are required while in Eternal voice channels.
For Organized Ops:
- Teamspeak – used for fleet-level command channels
- Discord – used for squad-level coordination
For Casual Play: Discord alone is fine.
Combat Vessel Readiness: Members participating in Eternal PvP operations are expected to maintain at least one of the following ships in a combat-ready state:
Mirai Fury (~780,000 aUEC)
Gladius (2,383,000 aUEC)
Hornet F7C MkII (4,900,000 aUEC)
Other ships may be used with approval or as needed by command.

Follow the Chain: Orders from your direct superior must be followed. If you disagree with a directive, address it through your chain of command. Jumping ranks disrupts discipline and will not be tolerated.
Comms Discipline: Speak clearly and keep it brief, especially during operations. Avoid unnecessary chatter—every second counts in combat.
Stay Informed: Keep an eye on official messages and updates in Discord. If you're signed up for ops, you're expected to stay current on any changes.

Training & Certification: You’ll need to complete training and earn certification for any role you want to perform in Eternal operations. This ensures cohesion and readiness across the fleet.
Role Assignment: Roles are assigned based on your certifications and experience. Flexibility is key—you may be asked to step into other roles as needed.
Skill Growth: Regular participants should attend practices, review performance, and continuously sharpen their skills. Eternal strength comes from collective discipline.

Professionalism First: We operate in a mature environment. While camaraderie and humor are welcome, behavior must reflect respect, professionalism, and emotional maturity at all times.
Team Before Self: Eternal operations are about coordination, not personal glory. Individual showboating undermines group success. Victory belongs to the unit—or not at all.
Temper the Edge: Strong personalities are welcome, but toxicity is not. If your input adds heat without clarity, consider staying silent. Everyone knows when the line is crossed—don’t be the one to cross it.
Zero Tolerance for Harmful Behavior: Swearing is fine. Discrimination, harassment, racism, sexism, or targeted abuse are not. Violations will be handled decisively.

Ongoing Skill Development: All members are expected to continuously refine their skills—whether it's ship handling, fleet tactics, or broader strategic awareness.
Post-Op Debriefs: After every Eternal operation, a structured debrief will be held. Constructive criticism is encouraged but must be delivered with respect. Team leads will conduct internal debriefs and forward insights up the chain for analysis and improvement.
Mentorship Culture: Higher-ranked or more experienced members are expected to guide newer operatives. Share knowledge freely—every member raised strengthens the whole.

Commitment Matters: We don’t require constant activity. But if you sign up for an Eternal operation, you are expected to show up—on time—for the operation and any associated training, briefings, or debriefs.
Enforcement Protocols: Violations of Eternal rules will result in disciplinary action, scaled appropriately—from warnings to temporary suspensions or permanent removal from Eternal operations or the organization.
Report Issues Promptly: If you witness a breach of conduct, report it up your chain of command without delay. Silence enables decay—discipline preserves strength.
