Promotions & You
Skill level has nothing to do with promotions. EdgeGamers promotes on the basis of a member's maturity. 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 immaturely.
Getting promoted to =(eG)=™, =(eGO)=™ or Leadership has nothing to do with your time in the community. It is the effort you put into the servers and the contributions you make to the clan that are factored into all promotions.
Other aspects 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. Location - We might promote members who live in time zones outside of the USA quicker since we need admin coverage during all hours.
5. Donations and Dedicated Supporter status do not guarantee a promotion, but they do get you noticed.
6. Get in Ventrilo. That's where friends are made.
Leadership is always watching to see who is ready, but the best way NOT to get promoted is by ASKING FOR A PROMOTION. Just play and have fun.
EdgeGamers Rank Structure
All =(eG)=™ and =(eGO)=™ members have server admin responsibilities. =(eG)=™ members are considered "admins-in-training" while =(eGO)=™ members are senior admins. Each higher level of clan membership has greater server admin responsibility.

=(e)=™ members do not have server admin abilities. Remember, at the this level, you are NOT an admin, so don't try to be. To learn how, let =(eG)=™ or (eGO)=™ members handle issues on the server and watch how they admin.
Some =(eGO)=™ members are Advisors, Division Leaders, Council, or Community Managers. They comprise the leadership of EdgeGamers. Please review the leadership roster for a list of these members.
To send a message to the admins you open up teamchat (Default: "u" key) and start your message with an @ symbol.
It would look like this:
