Fleet leadership: Difference between revisions

Line 22:

Note that Squad Commander counts for the membership of his squad, but the wing commander and fleet commander do not count toward any squad. This means that the maximum fleet size is 256 pilots.<br>

There is one important ~~leadership~~ position that does not appear in the leadership hierarchy, that of fleet 'boss'. While the name ~~of the role~~ may imply a leadership ~~and or command~~ position the role is ~~in fact~~ purely administrative and ~~can~~ be ~~filled by any pilot in any position although~~ the default fleet boss is the person who ~~first forms~~ the fleet. The fleet boss is the only person who can promote ~~other~~ people to ~~the wing~~ and ~~fleet command~~ positions ~~as well as~~ edit the fleet's ~~Message~~ of the ~~Day~~ (MOTD) ~~and~~ post an advert for the fleet ~~that will appear~~ in the fleet finder ~~part of the fleet window to all pilots who meet the requirements specified in the advert~~.

There is one important position that does not appear in the leadership hierarchy, that of fleet 'boss'. While the name may imply some form of leadership position the role is purely administrative, although it is entirely possible for the FC and fleet boss to be the same person, with the default fleet boss being the person who originally created the fleet. The fleet boss is the only person who can promote people to Wing Commander and Fleet Commander positions (people cannot self-promote like for Squad Commander), edit the fleet's message of the day (MOTD), or post an advert for the fleet in the fleet finder.

The term "fleet bonus" has been used so far, however a better phrase would simply be "bonus", since there are different levels of bonuses for each level in the command structure. EVE uses the terms "fleet bonuses" (and "fleet boosters") which can be confusing.<br>
