View source for RPG:Admirals Handbook

Admirals may post in various forms, and their posting requirement is different. It is imperitive that they are able to support their ships that they oversee. As long as they are performing this duty, their actual posting can be variable. If a ship that they oversee, for example, has a captain who has been unable to post, it will be the Admirals responsibility to maintain that ship at the time. This means that they must post at least three times a week to ensure that the ship is able to play without that captain until a new one is assigned or the old one is able to return to posting. We strongly encourage admirals to have at least one character that is posting minimum on one of their overseen ships as a point of presence and to maintain interest in the game and its universe.
