I saw in the Shoutbox where a new player was told that Open RP isn't canon. This is not the case and I want to clear up that misconception.
As I thought about how to explain it, I decided the problem was that, even after all these years of RP, we still didn't actually have a solid guide on how canon actually works in Star Army! It feel like this is big oversight on my part. So, I wrote up an article this morning that explains what Star Army canon is.
Star Army has different "levels" of canon. Stuff is canon if it is on the wiki, or if it's in the RP forums, and it's considered the MOST canon if those two types of canon combine in a Voltron-like manner to become "hard" canon.
Here's the article that breaks it down: Guide to Canon on Star Army
