I joined the other day, but was unsure on what to do next....
Thanks for the Post SJ

I enjoy logistics, what would you recommend?

Sounds like you'd want to be transportation minister.
High profile Posts like that are filled already, of course, so you may have to wait for an opportunity.

Being a military officer could be what you're looking for, also. Command of a ship/fleet and all.
You will need to have an instant messaging client, such as IRC, MSN, AIM, ICQ, etc in order to actually do the tactical combat part, but that is not required.

We are now on Turn 2400.9!

There are currently 3 openings for planetary governors, and we have two more colony ships flying through space at the moment!

I would like to take one, if that is all right.
Please, explain, how I should get started.
I am Registered, and I have the MSN mess...

How the orders are posted? Normal .plr file or how? I'd like to join to the game and if there still free planetary governors spots open I'd like to get one.

The game is based around the forum at
http://www.invirtuo.cc/se4/index.php
Where we discuss what we want to do and vote about it.
Everyone then sends in their orders to SJ who runs the turn (The others don't see Your orders so you might do things you're not supposed to...)
The orders are delivered by a hidden post on the above forum.

Then you download the turnfile and check the results and plan your next orders.
We civilians need more people to give us an balance against our oversized military.
(In this game I'm an overentusiastic pacifist)

I haven't got any reply to my message in game's forum so I ask my question here. Are the turn orders send by plain text, for example "Build research center at planet Dertran VI"? And where I can receive the newest turn?
