admin recruit?

Skill level has nothing to do with promotions. Maturity has everything to do with it. We would rather have someone who can barely play, is a lot of fun and carries with them a sense of integrity, than someone who is PWNTASTIC and acts immature.

In holding ourselves to a higher standard of conduct, we lead by example and it is more likely you will be kicked or banned for rule breaking than someone who hasn't joined the forums.

As a member of eGO, you are responsible for your actions in the entire online gaming world, whether or not you are wearing an EdgeGamers tag. This means that you could be removed from EdgeGamers for bad conduct on servers or forums outside of eGO.

Getting promoted to =(eG)=™ or =(eGO)=™ also has nothing to do with time in the clan. We cannot stress this enough. It is the effort you put into the servers and the contributions you make to the clan.

Some factors we look at include:

1. Your playing time in the servers and love of the game.

2. Your maturity and ability to make the correct decisions in the servers. (Are you ready to switch sides when needed, or do you instead just say "TEAMS"?)

3. Your forum activity - Do you contribute to the clan outside of playing the game? (Some members are promoted only on server time and not on forum activity. People are rarely promoted based on forum activity alone.)

4. Age - Our youngest member is 13, our oldest member is 58. We look at age and try to keep a good balance between older and younger.

5. Location - We might promote Hawaiians, Brits, Euro's and Aussies a bit quicker since we need admin coverage in off hours.

6. Donations do not guarantee a promotion, but they do get you noticed. People who donate are mentioned in the news, allowing others to learn your name quicker and so might watch to see if you meet the 5 above requirements a little quicker than someone who did not make the news.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DONATE TO BE PROMOTED. The vast majority of Admins are not donors.

7. Remember, at the =(e)=™ level, you are NOT an admin yet. So don't try to be. When an =(eG)=™ or (eGO)=™ member is in the server watch how he or she admins.

They will teach you if you just watch. Let them handle the issues on the server.

The Council and Advisors are always watching to see who is ready. We also listen to what other clan members think about a player.

The best way to NEVER get promoted is "ASKING FOR A PROMOTION". Just play and have fun.

From the main "instruction" thread in the recruiting section.

Simple version: Don't worry about it and have fun. If you behave, you'll get promoted eventually.
 
Hey Kel92Vader,

Here's what you need to do: the first step is to actually apply and become an eGO member. Just head over to the recruiting office (click here) and follow the instructions in their "Sticky"-labeled threads to get verified with your custom admin system (MAUL) and to formally apply.

Once you're accepted into eGO, play on our servers, join us in Ventrilo if you wish, and above all, have a good time. Promotions to admin levels occur when it is felt that people are ready for the added responsibility; we have to get to know you and know that we can trust you with admin powers on our servers.

Glad to see that you made it here; I look forward to seeing you ingame with that =(e)= tag!

Hmmm, how old is London? He takes a good bit of pride in being the oldest DOD:S player he can find.

Just doing the math, he HAS to be pushing seventy or is past it.
 
Well guys it's nice to be noticed and yes I am 70, but I have a birthday in April so you can start saving up for my present, only joking,
It seems like some young folk's think people over 40 should not play video game's but any doctor will tell you to keep your brain active to avoid becoming senile, can you think of a better way to keep your brain active than playing dod? I would love to retire but my house is 90 tears old and need's constant renovation's just like me. So my friend's I will see you all in Kalt but keep out of the sewer's they are mine. LOL.

Ha, I spend about as much time with my Dad's friends as I do with my own and some of them are a lot older than him, so it's pretty cool to see people who've been around a while playing games.

Also, as you get up there in years, it probably isn't very healthy to be hanging out in sewers ;D
 
lol i would ask to be admin but yeah lol maybe bans on records may change that lol, but im not complaining its an honor just being apart of this clan :D
