  The Recruitment Situation: What You Can Do To Help
April 7, 2011 10:18:36 PM    View the profile of Luckystar 
As we all know, we are running short on Recruits, and we all know that I am the person in charge of their training as well as their placement into squads. But I cannot fulfill my duties as a CoT adequately if we don’t have very many Recruits to place and so I call on you guys to help me help you. I cannot bring in new guys on my own; we all need to make an effort in gaining people, whether they are fresh Greens or returning vets. If we all work together and each make an effort, doesn’t have to be a huge thing, I’m sure we can make our current situation a better one.

Ask someone you know who loves Star Wars and whom you think would be a great addition to the site. It can be a neighbor, a co-worker, a family member, a friend, someone you met at a club or event…The possibilities are endless!
And now for a reminder that we have a few options at hand, mainly sites but small steps can go a long way, right?

Sites you can recruit on include but are not limited to:
  • GAIA
  • IMVU
  • gamerDNA (note that the VE does have  a page on here so if you’d like to join, feel free to submit a request and I will be sure to accept it in the briefest of delays as possible)

And for you Facebookers, don’t forget that the VE has a Facebook page!

And now for the exciting par…MEDALS!!

OOC:

Quote: Order of Pellaeon [OPE]
Awarded to members who recruit 5 members.
Quote: Order of Thrawn [OTH]
Awarded to members who recruit 10 members.
Quote: Order of Palpatine [OPA]
Awarded for members who recruit 15 members or above.


And for those new Trainees who need a little extra incentive, I give you:
Quote: Letter of Recommendation [LoR]
Given to members who have shown fantastic displays of promise while serving in the Vast Empire Army Academy. It adds a 15% increase on the test to achieve a commission as an Imperial Officer. It may only be awarded by the Commander of Training.


So then what do y’all say, eh? Let’s get to recruiting, shall we?

All I want to add is be careful HOW you recruit if you're going to recruit on social networking sites. I'd suggest keeping it to something simple like adding a banner or link to your profile. You don't want to be obnoxiously recruiting if it will get you banned from the site, not to mention that it might give us a bad reputation on the internet and the whole point here is to GET IN recruits, not drive them away. A bad rep is not going to help that. Also, I'm going to add in a little incentive for you guys. Prove to me that you have brought in some form of an active recruit. I will grant you 500,000 ICs!

How do you do this? Simple. Bring in a recruit. They need to graduate the academy and stay active in a squad for 2-3 weeks. Your SLs and PCs will vouch on this for me I am sure. It's April now, so let's say the offer stays until the 15th of July. Happy Hunting!

I'll add another 100,000 on top of Rizzit's incentive. Imagine all you could buy/invest in with 600,000 ICs!

I say we get together, invest in some balaclavas and an ambiguous white van, and snatch unsuspecting bystanders from the street.

That's funny. I suggested the same thing with the next Star Wars convention.

In all seriousness, bring it up, especially if you know they're a fiction writer.

I guess I could make my return to IMVU to try and see if I can salvage and rebuild Drexhel's recruitment group that he gave to me once he retired. I'll try and do my best to get us some good writers. If you have an IMVU account PM me and I'll invite you to the group. That way it's a group effort. And we can try and recruit together.
