Well, the UFC is now going strong, and we've even engaged in a limited war with [TWC] and emerged victorious. That's always nice. 
BTW, Jafink, "Federation" is spelled with one "a."

Taillesskangaru got hit pretty hard, but we are in the midst of repelling the invaders. Long live Tigrisia!
We've also set it up so there's a kind of parliament-like aspect to it, for those of you familiar with that game.

I'm on the Alpha Server. Part of the The Brotherhood of Odd guild (ODD). They're cool, I've learned a lot. I got 3 research colonies set up and my bases are doing well. Problem is I'm not upgraded and my main colony, which is on a moon by the way is running out of area... FAST. Soon I'll have to build orbital bases and multi-level platforms (both not yet researched)

Anyone who is interested, please take note:
In a few months there is likely to be a new server created (probably in November) which will let us start from scratch. Now, you may be wondering what's the point in doing this if we're already playing. The answer is that you really can never catch up to the highest players once you join a server that's already been going on for a few months, so a fresh start would enable us to become one of the top 10 powers in the galaxy.
Therefore, the UFC will be forming a new guild in the new server (probably called Delta, following the alphabetic progression) shortly before the game starts. If you would like to join and make the Civ-players alliance into one of the top guilds, please visit our site at civunited.net or PM Equuleus or me.

I've joined ODD mostly out of safety reasons. They're the first guild I saw. One of their members saw me. They contacted me, being friendly and all and then I decided to join their guild, and now I feel safe
Five reasons to join United Federation of Civvers:
1. Close-knit community, nice friendly people
2. Democratically-governed
3. Good relation with most other guilds (notable exceptions being TWC, 42 and Odd)
4. "Attack on one, attack on all" principle in wartime. If you're attacked you can be sure to receive the guild's (and other guilds') full support.
5. Finally, our common bond, Civ!

Thing is though- I'm scared. I don't want to leave a guild. What if it's like Cybernations Initiative? You know, you can join, we want you to join, but if you leave, you're not going to in one piece. That kind of thing...

If there is anyone in the Beta server, please join the IDI.
I have just gotten another member, which brings the total to 3. They are friends of mine.
I am also trying to get NAPs with the guilds around me, so far I have gotten 2.

Hmm, Ok I think I'll join, but currently, it seems the Alpha Server will not load for me... I think its down for maintenance

Ah, Ragex. NPO would have horribly damaged them if it weren't for the Borg.

Borg wanted moneys.
Before the war, NPO was IIRC, 3rd in fleet, 2nd in econ. Borg was 2nd in fleet, 3rd in econ. LUE and Ragex, I don't recall their stats. But they were about equal.
Thus, Borg+Ragex declared war on LUE in like May. (and other minor allies, most either destroyed or hollow shells) Only Borg was fighting NPO though. I don't know their forum stated reasons, but it was pretty much for money. We had money, they had fleet, so they go and use it to take our money. And drop us 2 or 3 ranks.
The Borg kind of took NPO off guard, and quickly destroyed a lot of our fleet, scared off lots of newbies, dropped a lot of our econ. The first month was actual large scale fighting. Then by that time, bases became well defended enough to not be taken without horrendous losses. Generally. So it became a cold war. We kill each other's occupations, kill each other's fleet if we see it out in the open, hit a weak base, and don't do much otherwise. Then NPO declared on Ragex, and Ragex started getting destroyed a bit with pent up NPO fleets combined with LUE's fleets. And then more stalemate.
The war dragged on for the entire summer, only ending 2 weeks before September with a peace with NPO. Then about a week later, LUE establishes peace.
The end result is that NPO and LUE had to pay a 2 week occupation with no pillages. Immediate release of Borg and Ragex bases.

Cool, nice to know I joined a guild with a good track record. 
I mostly joined RAGEX because 1. UFC was too noobish for me 2. I wanted a guild which allowed a more agressive aproache to the game 3. It is strong.
I have a horrible fleet though, only about 225k, and I am desperately trying to increase it.
