Current welcome email

This email was rewritten 16 August 2007 by Licah Fox and is the first email sent to new members.


Greetings (character name)! My name is (Primary Instructor's name, no rank), and I'd like to welcome you to the Rebel Squadrons.

The purpose of this email, along with welcoming you, is to confirm your contact information and get you started with us. Please click the link below to activate your Rebel Squadrons profile.

You can then login to our site. The first site you should visit is one you may have seen already -- our welcome site, located at http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/welcome/ . It should tell you most of what you need to know to get started. Here are two other important links that will help you to start communicating with other Rebel Squadrons members:
RS Forums (message boards): http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/forums/
RS Chat (IRC): http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/chat/

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via email ( (PI's email address) ). I've been assigned to be your primary instructor, which means I'm the first person you should go to if you need help or have questions about anything.

Welcome again, Cadet (character name)! I hope you enjoy your time here in the Rebel Squadrons.

Old welcome email

This email was written by Rahj Tharen and served as the welcome email for a period of time.


As you sit at your local cantina enjoying a brisk Corellian ale,
you cannot help but notice all of the unsavory characters that also frequent the
cantina.  You take another sip, and think to yourself, "I cannot wait to get
off of this rock..."  As if to answer your wish, your datapad instantaneously
comes to life with a burst of beeps, notifying you that you have an inquiry.
Immediately, you pick up the datapad and mutter, "Thank the Force...," all
the while wondering who it could be...

     Still slouched down over your table, you carelessly hit the answer button,
not bothering to sit up, half expecting it to be one of your friends.  "What
is it?"  A face appears on the projection screen: an imposing figure in a crisp,
clean uniform clearly indicating a military officer of high stature.

     "Greetings, Recruit (character name).  I am the Rebel Squadrons
Training Officer.  On behalf of the New Republic and the Rebel Squadrons, I
would like to thank you for your desire to protect the ideals and citizens of
the New Republic.  I am pleased and ready to inform you that you have been
accepted into our officer training program. Please click the following reply link
to complete your application process and join the Rebel Squadrons!

please remember to contact me with any questions at to@rebelsquadrons.org.  May the
Force be with you and may the pride and honor of the Rebel Squadrons carry on within
you!"

     At the conclusion of this message, you find yourself finally excited to get off
of this planet and start your new career in the Rebel Squadrons!  You think to
yourself, "Well, time to begin my training…"  And with that, you put the datapad in
your pocket, pay the bartender, and exit the cantina with a new world ahead of you…
