Seeing as we had no meeting this week, I have waited until today to make my report on the comnet. This way, you guys will get some kind of an army report (seeing as Wildcard makes up most of the army anyways
) Anyways, so count this as the army report for this week
Things this week have been an average week. I have had my own share of things to do, as well as all of you. School has started, so we will tend to understand a bit more when you can't do something. This does not however get you out of your duties. We will continue to progress as we have been, and I am going to be looking for more volunteers to help me. On the average, I am satisfied with what went on, but I am not completely happy. I think we can do much better than this, but I'll accept things for this week.
For those who have not checked their e-mails this week, there has been a new behavior policy issued in light of the recent quarrels between DarkDragoons and Raiders. This is getting out of hand, and any further conflicts of this nature will result in the guilty parties being punished in some way and having to take this matter up in #VE_Court. See your SL for more details if the need should arise. We don't expect you to get along with everyone in the VE, its darn near impossible: however we do expect that every VE member be given the propper respect. Don't take your jokes too far! Respect one another and have fun; and nothing will happen to you
That's all I have to say on that subject!
Posting has been flowing in at a steady pace I would say, but I'd like to see some gaming. There hasn't been any gaming that I know of for a long time. To combat this issue, I am moving up gaming nights so that they start this week on Thursday all-day. Gaming will be taking place in a Ladder form, and ladders will go throughout the month. At the end of the month, the winners will recieve a prize based on the amount of games played, people in the ladder, how their standings were, and so on. Tomorrow I will make a topic with more information on what we'll have for ladders and more details on gaming night. In the meantime, I need people in there all day. Anyone willing to help me out with this problem, please e-mail me at

On a side note to all you SLs and such. School has started up, and as promised I'll begin the Platoon Meetings every week. I took a good look over the time schedules that you all sent me last time, and monday looks to be good for us to do this. I'm going to make it earlier, so our friends outside of the U.S. and Canada time zone can make it. So let's shoot for mondays this time. I need all the SLs and ASLs to send me their available times for monday nights. If there is no possible way to make it on monday, please give me a list of other nights and times that you can. To those of you troopers that are interested in coming: I will be making an announcement so that you can come if you are on at the time and your SL does not have a problem with it. Remember, the SLs are required to come or send their ASL. There should be no excuses as to why you cannot come. I prefer both of you to be there, but if you can't: you can't.
I would also like to focus a bit on recruits. We've had quite a number of recruits come in, but we only see like 10% of them actually say hello and such. Anyone care to venture a guess why? I'm guessing its because they joined either because of a fly-by attempt on the site, or they just weren't recruited properly on the zone. To resolve this matter (and because its about time we did this again) I want to start getting our recruiting staff active again in shifts. For the time being, I want all current members of the recruiting staff e-mailing me ASAP informing me if they will still be able to recruit with us on the zone for a period of time. Shifts will be anywhere from 3-5 hours at a convenient time for you. Also, I want anyone interested in joining the staff to please e-mail me ASAP. You will definately have to spend time on the zone, but you will get paid for it. We'll try and work things out for the best.
Lastly, I want to talk about your activity and make some notes to the squads.
Dark Dragoons: You're doing great this week. Try and make a slightly better attempt on gaming though, and I'd say you're golden. Reports are good, posting is dominating, I can't say too much more than that.
Raiders: I'm actually a bit disappointed in you guys. Considering the people that you have on your squad, I should see more posting than I am; even though some of you are on leave.
Wraiths: You have also been doing a good job this week. I know I normally complain about you guys, but this week I'm really pleased. You almost came close to tying DD this week, which is saying a lot.
That's about all I have for this week. Remember to take care of the gaming nights e-mails, the recruiting e-mails, and the meeting times e-mails. Do that, and I'd say things'll definately be looking up!
