I did re-apply and no, I'd never use my in-game name on this forum.
You are welcome! I will be sure to pass the word
From the onset - the DSSA itself was planned to have been an integral part in the DW3 Expedition (had it come to pass) and the Formorian Frontier was intentionally left empty - as it was to have played an important role at some point during the expedition...but that also left a fairly large gap in the northern galaxy (as we strive to have DSSA no closer than @ 5000 Ly from one another - but then also no further than 7-8,000 Ly apart)
The DSSA Council had decided that the FF region was too sparsely covered by DSSA FCs in general and with the cancellation of DW3 precluding any events there - decided in the fall of 2022 that we wanted to commemorate the DSSA Project by placing a 'flagship" DSSA somewhere fitting... so the DSSA-HQ Procul Umbra was quietly deployed at Luna's Shadow in late 2022 and we have since planned to add two DSSA locations in the eastern & western regions of FF as well....(The latter half of 2023 was busy for us in RL - and so we are still working though the backlog of some open positions)

A massive thank you to CMDR Green Gumby for the use of DSSA Pegasus
Greetings commanders,
Question for everyone. Getting back into the pilot's seat after a long hiatus.
I am the proud owner of DSSA Wanderer's Rest [NNT-W4Z] and feel it is time to refit her for exobiology, Pioneer Supplies, and naturally, a Bar after almost 3 years out here.
I almost have enough fuel for the 51 jumps back to Colonia and plan on purchasing enough fuel for the return trip to my station, Flyai Pre HR-V c2-1 in The Conduit.
The question is, where do I make the announcement that my carrier will be off station for the several day journey for 102 jumps? I was thinking here, naturally, and on the Fleet Carrier Discord, but not sure which channel to post it in. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
I plan on setting sail this Friday, about 11:00 in game time and seeing how far I get through the weekend. I am hoping to be back on station in about a week, give or take.
Fly straight and true,
o7

Greetings and welcome back fellow pinniped!
I sent you a message on Fleetcomm Discord - so we can discuss the details thereā¦We (DSSA Council) just want to ensure that the community enjoys the highest level of DSSA availability - but at the same time: thereās a long-term added benefit to your willingness to add the additional Odyssey FC servicesā¦.āGotta break eggs to make cakeā¦ā

Greetings from Glorious Dawn! It's been a while since Cmdr @Orvidius's last visit on the forum. I hope he's OK. Happy to say his carrier is doing fine, its services are still top notch and the view over NGC 7538 is as amazing as you can imagine. o7!

We have a report of FC with restricted access.
Inara link to squadron discord is broken. Karaya dont appear on FCOC, or Rock Rats reference. Frontier forum user Karaya1 was last seen in Dec'20, 6 months after deploying in the location. Maybe run out of funds.

9 days ago, we have a similar problem with DSSA Ronin: Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/1e3zgmc/if_you_need_to_find_a_fleet_carrier_in_teh_black/
And in March, I have a similar problem with Alice's Hope, in Dryman's Hope (Dryman's Point sector), but a quick talk with Alice Hope fix the lack of funds in less than and hour.
Can I ask a review of all FC? and if possible Legacy status to support the console explorers, the best activity in Legacy.
Thanks. I ask this because saw multiple reports in the last days, and had 1 problem.

@Luriant thank you for the feedback - we have had some RL changes to the make up of the DSSA Council (and I was out with Covid I think when you posted this) - but we are looking into getting things back on track as quickly as possible...I'll also post on your reddit replies - so feel free to ping me with any DSSA-related issues there...
FYI - the FleetComm Discord is still the official home for DSSA communications - but pinging us on one of these other channels should help regardless...

I want to thank the DSSA and specifically the DSSA Ttv Somdy (PZQ-24Q) in Lyed YJ-I d9-0. It's so nice to have a friendly place to land at the "Southern" tip of the galaxy!
Not sure if anyone's mentioned this before but the imgur link in the Carrier Travel and Equipment sheet is dead
Does the DSSA FC owner get his/her percentage of money if I sell exploration data at his/her carrier? I'm at a station at Soul nebula but if I can help DSSA pay its upkeep, I'll sell my data there.

Yes. I'm not sure how much, but a percentage of the money you're paid by UC, goes to the Carrier.
12.5 %, if memory serves.
Yes - Universal Cartographics always takes a 25% cut of Exploration sold at FCs - but half (12.5%) is shared back with the FC Owner (DSSA or Independent)....
Selling exploration data is the preferred way to say "thank you" to your neighborhood DSSA Cmdr
(As an aside: DSS / mapping payouts have been increased under Odyssey - with a 30% bonus over Horizons for the same body....So you are still basically still getting ahead - AND helping pay upkeep...)
