And eGO was his name-O.

How does this whole rank earning system work? I.e., how does one become an eG, eGO? And I don't mean the stock management answers, like "Well Craig, through hard work and perseverance...".

I'm speaking of things like, do the O's take notes? Do they have a gigantic spread sheet of naughty and nice? Is there a behind the scenes point system? Does taunt killing them and basically ruling their world get those points deducted. Does this thread get points deducted? Will a ten spot to the right person make me special? How about 20? (j/k, I know there's a donate button around here somewhere.)

I've looked around and haven't found info on this. I've heard the coffee in the eG lounge is way better too. :drool:

Thanks.

eG lounge is where the party is at. and thanks for directing netmare to that blog spitfire'd
 
Thank you, and now I will answer your question.

There's not really a set system for the promotions. Just be active in our servers, in our forums, hang in our Vent channel and be yourself. Have fun. Help contribute to the awesome environment of our servers and do your part to ensure that they stay the best servers in the world.

You'll be noticed for doing that, and when the time is right you will be promoted. It might seem to take a long time, but remember this is a huge clan (15,000+ forum members I believe) so the leadership likes to make sure it gets a good read on people before giving them the responsibilities and privilege of free admin.

Hope that helps!
 
eG is acquired by showing dedication, leadership, and maturity over other members. We would rather have someone who is mature, a leader, and is dedicated to eGO then someone who dominates other players on Dust2.
 
It's not really a "stock management answer"; the repeatedly stated values and ideas are really what determine things, because it's how eGO runs. Of course, don't forget rules 1 and 2:

1.) You do not talk about promotions.
2.) You DO NOT TALK about promotions.

The only "legitimate" time you can is when you are congratulating somebody on their own promotion.

Just so you know ;)

Basically, eGO is about having a good time, getting to know people, and playing the game. That's really it; admin is nice and all to solve problems, but we are NOT here to police the servers. We're here to have fun playing our games together as a group.

You mentioned notes...I have eight pages of them, plus three bookmarks. But I need those as an admin trainer to do my job; they aren't necessary for anyone else. That's the great thing about this clan's embracement of Ventrilo and Steam; if you have a problem or need a hand, you can ask for help or a second opinion.

We don't have tables of right and wrong; there are a few rules that we all agree need to be enforced, but we don't like to "define things", because 90% of problems are "gray areas" to some extent. We just don't do it.

Play the game and have a good time; that's what this clan is about. You don't get to enjoy it quite as much when you have to stop every few minutes to take care of a problem, and almost everyone will agree with that, at least to some extent.

Yes it does, thanks :) .

I didn't come here for promotions, I came here because I really liked the vibe on the eGO servers, that and Blackmesa :D . But then again, I don't like doing things half-heartedly, so... Now let's play some TF2!

Just so everyone's aware, my initial post was meant in a light hearted manner.

you be active on the servers, be active on the forums, help out the admins by TELLING THEM about people who are doing something wrong, and just be respectful on the servers. OH, and have fun. :thumbup: :)
