During the past weeks I've done massive updates to the SWAT Portal and sites which belong to it.

Our new Star Trek Online section which soon will hit 300 active players has got its Fleet website a few weeks ago at Phoenix Legion XII | The Star Trek Online Fleet of the SWAT Portal
While meanwhile complete and fully functional I can not exclude that further changes to the website will be done in the following weeks as I am currently discussing optional features with the game developers -> automatic member management and fleet statistics.

Since Bloodguard returned to active duty and I expect that this clans starts to play a bigger role again the BG Clan page got replaced with a new modern one.
Bloodguard

On the Portal itself more than 30 updates were done to fix bugs and improve the features.
Just to name a few changes:
- access problems to the ticketsystem should be fixed now
- members can apply for usergroups already when they register
- better protection against spam bot registrations

2012 was a very weird year.

The world did not end, eventhough mass effect 3 was a catastrophy.

Looking back at the year which is almost over I unfortunately have many negative impressions in mind... more negative than positive actually.

Community members which prefer to argue than to work together, the loss of a clan, conflicts between communities, players which complain about every shit instead of making use of what they got and not fulfilled objectives for the year.

Most of the above mentioned stuff had negative impact on the portal.

The lack of help and support aswell all the troubles generated by the players have thrown back the development of CF2.0 by many months. Even worse, it nearly killed the motivation of the team.

I remember 3 times when Huor requested help and got not even a reply.... and I know that people had the knowledge and ability to help. Probably its best if I dont mention how many times I requested help and got no reply during the past year.

It saddens me that

The SWAT Portal wishes you all a Merry Christmas, an always save space dock and a Happy New Year.

Quote from Crossfire Features

Clans play a very big role in Freelancer. So they do for Crossfire. Clans often keep the roleplay running or initiate new roleplay situations. They help new players and those which belong to their members. In other words "they are important". It is time to give something back to them.

Quote from Crossfire Features

Crossfire is known for an open and free Roleplay environment. Doing roleplay for years we have kept it simple and without enforcement. Motivating players to do roleplay appeared to us to be the better way. With the introduction of Crossfire 1.9 the server sided roleplay massively gets improved....

Quote from Crossfire Features

Every version of the Crossfire mod introduced a new part of the Crossfire story. These Story parts leading from one version of the mod to the next are covered by the Crossfire Story Chapters. Together with the Crossfire Short Stories and the Crossfire Ingame Story they cover the full Crossfire Storyline. These three story elements are completely linked with each other.
