Your rank and access were restored by Fleet Admiral Picard. Since he is retired, he could not actually restore you're rank and even stated that in your return post. Council voted on the rank of Fleet Captain. I thought someone would have told you, but I'll make sure officers are notified in the future.

the first negative so far

Ahh i see now. Understood.

Perhaps these may be communications that can be dispatched by the the DOP.

Why? That seems totally unnecessary.

Here's why:

Random Council Member: "Hey Random DOP Officer, can you tell Officer X that his returning rank is Fleet Captain?"

Aforementioned Random DOP Officer: "Why Certainly Sir, right after I go make a sandwich and finish watching my show on Hulu. I'll get to it by tomorrow, maybe."

That Same Random Council Member: "Okay, cool "

Two Days later a post is made informing the returning officer of his rank reduction. This delay in the officer being informed will most likely cause more posts like this one.

Here's how it should be:

Random Council Member: "Welcome Back to [UFP] Officer X, the council has voted and your returning rank is Fleet Captain."

Returning Officer: Thank You Admiral, I must say it is nice to be back, and Engineering certainly has been doing an amazing job. At everything.

Maybe securitys job could be that so we can confirm who it is

Things do happen around here

Whoever starts the poll should be the one to inform said officer when voting is completed. Simple
