Recognition of Ranks

In STARFLEET on the USS Renaissance, ranks are symbolic achievements earned through accomplishments, devoid of real-world significance. Each crew member is a crucial part of the team, and promotions are based on a point system earned through active participation in events. To seek a promotion, track your points and present them to the Executive Officer (XO) by month-end, with final approval by the Commanding Officer (CO). Field Promotions, granted by the Captain for exceptional service, contribute points toward the desired rank, but earned points must still be used. New members start as Crewman Recruit (E-1) or SFMC Private (E-1), and transferring members retain their previous rank. Moving from enlisted to officer rank requires passing the STARFLEET Academy’s Officer Training School (OTS) exam. Points are spent, not cumulative, and Officially Sanctioned Chapter Events (OSCEs) earn promotion points. Keep in mind, a crew member is limited to one promotion per month. In STARFLEET, it’s about teamwork, recognition, and responsible use of earned ranks. Use our spreadsheet to track and calculate your promotion points.

See Section 04:02 – Ranks and Promotions in the handbook.

Transferring Members

Any member in good standing transferring to the USS RENAISSANCE from another STARFLEET Chapter shall retain their previous rank and position whenever possible, and earn the minimum number of points allotted that rank upon presentation of proof of having earned that rank through legitimate means.
