Standard threads are commonly seen threads used to coordinate activity across the ship. Usually the person starting a thread is also taking charge of the associated activity.

The first post on a standard thread might only contain the title, such as **Pilot Thread**. On ships with new players, the first post should also contain a few basic tips and advice. The examples below include such advice, taken from the pages on Main_Page Mushpedia.
