So, been toying around with STO for a few days... and I cannot figure out how to do *anything.* I mean, I can fly the ship, and kill the baddies, but I don't know how to level, how to get more crew members, what good all these drops do for me, etc... I don't even know how to find what level I am.
HELP!

I will help you captain. To level all you do is hit the k button, then click on your captain, from there you allot the points into the skills you want. For the bridge officers there are different ways of getting them, one is from the z store, 2 is from the bridge officer request to ESD. Third is from the market on ESD or Kronos.
The drops if you do not want to keep them you can vendor them, this is pretty much the only way to earn EC.
The level part is you captains rank so if you see LT 5 you are in a way level 6.
Btw if you need bridge officers I can give you some, rares and very rares :). I wont be on until tomorrow. I can also invite you into the fleet I am in, called Paragon (I forgot the rest of the name)

That'd be sweet... I got invited to a fleet, and joined, but I am a little uncomfortable with it and would gladly quit to join an ex-CoH cult, er, fleet. (The one I joined has "Confederation" in it... Making me a little uncomfortable)
I got a mission to help train some cadets, with the reward being a bridge officer of some kind, but went off to do other things and it seemed to disappear from my choices.
Odd.
OK, this helps a bit, but this game has a pretty steep learning curve. Well, to me, anyway. Might be helpful if i knew anything about Star Trek at all.

I just started it myself last week. It's rather confusing, though I'm level 14 already, which means I have a spiffy new ship that's not quite as terrible as the one I started with. (I probably should have gotten an Escort, so that I could end space battles more quickly, but I went with a Cruiser instead, because I couldn't resist having a ship that looked like the original Enterprise)
Your XP are "Skill Points", and can be directly used to increase your captain's abilities. There's also "Expertise", which is something similar to that, but for your crewmen. I haven't figured out how to learn new abilities for them. (Keeps telling me I need training manuals, with no indication of where to get such manuals)
What confused me the most is that the missions seemed to stop for a while when I hit level 10. I had to do some PvE-queue things before I could resume doing story-ish missions. And then I started fighting vampire ghosts in a spooky haunted basement.
I'm kinda enjoying the game, but I'm not really excited about it.
Anyway, I'm Lt. Commander Drakar (of the USS Righteous Indignation - well, Rgts Indignation. The full name was too long) @ zazelby.
