If boss is passed to you, either as a result of you volunteering or being "ninja bossed", the Fleet Advert window will pop up on your screen.  Verify the Advert settings are correct as specified above and select the the "Submit" button.  This will update the Fleet finder with the fact that you are the new boss and allow other pilots to join. Save the fleet setup from the Fleet windows setting menu for future use, if you have not done this before.

Here's how to join the Standing Fleet:
  
* '''Passing Fleet Boss to Another'''
+
# Open the Fleet window by clicking the icon [[File:Fleet.png|x24px|alt=The Fleet icon: three chevrons pointing up|link=|The Fleet icon]] on your [[Neocom|Neocom panel]]. (If you removed Fleet from your Neocom, click the Neocom Menu at the top left of your screen, then Social > Fleet.)
If you are ready to leave fleet and are the current boss, you must pass the boss position to another in fleet first. Ask for volunteers in the Fleet Chat and/or Mumble. Make every reasonable effort to pass boss to someone who is active. Once you have your volunteer, make sure that they are safe, as becoming fleet boss will give them a 10-second session timer during which they cannot jump through a gate or dock at a station. Then, pass fleet boss to them by right clicking their name in chat or the fleet window, followed by a left click on "Make Boss".
+
# Click the [[Fleet interface#Fleet Finder|Fleet Finder]] tab in the fleet window. Under that tab, click Find Fleets.
 +
# Look for the fleet named ''PC9 Standing Fleet''. Glance at the character who's fleet boss and check that they are a member of Eve University. (If they aren't, it's a bogus fleet and you should not join it.)
 +
# Double- or right-click to join . You will automatically be added to the fleet; there is no approval needed.
  
* '''Being the Fleet Boss'''
+
Tips:
The main job of the fleet boss is to move people in and out of Fleet/Wing command positions when asked to do so.  Also, they are responsible for adding/removing new Wings and Squads as needed.
+
* If you don't see the fleet in the Find Fleets pane, try searching again with the Scope set to ''My Available Fleets''. The fleet is supposed to be listed as being open to corporation and alliance but sometimes people set this wrong.
The fleet boss is not the FC, nor in charge of anyone by default.
+
* If the Fleet icon has been removed from your Neocom panel, you can drag it back there from the menu.

The NSC Standing Fleet

Main article: Fleet interface

Provided you are in comms and are not away from your keyboard, always join the Standing Fleet when near or traveling to the Null-Sec Community. Here are some basic information about the Standing Fleet: how to join it, and how to successfully create one if it's not up.

Being in the fleet makes communication easier, it makes organisation easier, and it enables us to try and save you if you are caught.

Joining the Standing Fleet

Here's how to join the Standing Fleet:

  1. Open the Fleet window by clicking the icon The Fleet icon: three chevrons pointing up on your Neocom panel. (If you removed Fleet from your Neocom, click the Neocom Menu at the top left of your screen, then Social > Fleet.)
  2. Click the Fleet Finder tab in the fleet window. Under that tab, click Find Fleets.
  3. Look for the fleet named PC9 Standing Fleet. Glance at the character who's fleet boss and check that they are a member of Eve University. (If they aren't, it's a bogus fleet and you should not join it.)
  4. Double- or right-click to join . You will automatically be added to the fleet; there is no approval needed.

Tips:

  • If you don't see the fleet in the Find Fleets pane, try searching again with the Scope set to My Available Fleets. The fleet is supposed to be listed as being open to corporation and alliance but sometimes people set this wrong.
  • If the Fleet icon has been removed from your Neocom panel, you can drag it back there from the menu.

How to set up the Standing Fleet

If the PC9 standing fleet is not active, double check on Mumble or the Nullsec (EVE Uni) chat channel that the fleet is down. If there definitely isn't a standing fleet, follow the instructions on Standing Fleet to create one.
