Melman,
This has come up over and over again in the threads in probably every division over time. The best way is to be active in the servers, forums, and on Ventrilo. Ventrilo might actually be the best way to get your name out there and to show your potential ability to help lead as an eG level admin. My advice would be to also get the "e" tag added to your forum name at the moment along with probably the DoD:S divisional tag. Then, just get out in the servers and meet people.
Lastly, don't do these things just to become an admin. Your objective should be to have fun first, and then lead by example being yourself. Don't change who you are in attempt to become an admin, and don't suck up to admins either. Be a real, genuine person who demonstrates leadership potential and I'm sure you'll be promoted soon enough.
Hope this helps. Other members should chime in on this as well.

Tony covered it well, but I always feel like my opinion is valid no matter what so here is my 3 cents (yes 2 because Sumac= +1).
From a sticky in the DoD forums,
1) MAUL verification (you have no idea how many potentials aren't verified)
2) Server Activity
3) MAUL history (demotions, Leadership notes)
4) Application date (as opposed to forum join date)
5) Forum Activity (2 posts in application thread = not active member)
6) Last visit to forum (Over a few weeks, and it's useless to promote)
7) In game name (Must match forum ID, no house tags, no inappropriate changes)
8) Vent Activity. (If you're never in Ventrilo, we do notice)
Tony touched on all these points, the main ones being server/vent/forum activity. Within that, simply getting to know other members of eGO and the division.
You have to consider there are so many members that Advisers/DLs won't notice you unless you are hanging out with others within the division. Also, vent/forums are a great place to lean about how different admins handle situations.
Lastly and Tony covered this as well, just play to play. eGO doesn't have packs of admins roaming the servers looking for problem children. We have gamers who play and enjoy their time playing and simply help keep servers fun and enjoyable for themselves and others when they are on.

You must be active on the forums as well as the servers. Must be fun and a mature player.
As you have only 8 posts in 1 year I believe you need to be more active.

Btw you say you are a member for 1 year now but i've never seen you playing on one of our servers before, never seen your name on the forums, and never seen you in vent. Those are things you have to work on, like said above
Thank you guys so much!
I got everything you guys said, i played many times against SUMAC and i killed him a few times hahahahahahahaha!
Thanks guys!
Blackbird, i think i?ve seen you in donner, most of the times i?m playing there! I think i killed you a few times too hehehehehehe!
That?s okay guys, your answers were very very important to me so i can understand how things go.
I just asked couse i got a friend, from Brazil too, he?s not active in forums, vent and anything else, he just plays as often as me on EGO servers (like donner) and he logged on forum and than BAAAM, people invited him to be Eg! Hehehehe!
THANK YOU GUYS!

Yeah while playing. Your name should display the =(e)= tag. then we know your in eGO xD. This makes sure that other admins see you. So they then could suggest to leadership that you have what it takes to be another good admin
but you don't need to change your forum name to have the Tag. To be honest I don't know how you get the forum "tag" under your avatar, Maybe ask leadership? anyone know?

Yeah guys, we don't need to repeat the exact same thing somebody else said. Link the sticky with all this information and let him read it. If he has any more questions he can simply post again.

You have absolutely perfected the art of trolling, it's so subtle and it makes me lol hard even though I'm the victim, nicely done, again.

As a PSC member I feel like it would be better if you posted a new application. This way you will be updated with eGO policies and you will further understand our tag and what it means to be an eGO member.

Your tag is the "=(e)=™" tag next to your name when you play. This identifies you are a member. Once you are promoted you get the G then the O.
I would also recommend you add the "e" tag under your name so the leaders will know you are a member.
