What rank do I have if I join? Do I have to “sir” people?

Ranks are fictional and a reflection of your service in the club. This isn't the military, we never "sir" anyone! When you join, you are assigned a non-commissioned officer rank and you can be promoted from there. No one may use rank to order people around. Remember, we're here to have fun! You may notice most of our command staff is high ranking (Captain or above), this is due to their long service either on the Challenger, in Starfleet or both.
