Meeting People
Why
- Meet Admins who can help you later
- Lots of cool people
- It's human nature
- Everyone was new at some point. Don't be afraid if someone is a higher rank than you.
Where
Steam Group
We send out most alerts through here. Please
do not create your own eGO related group.
Events
Events are held almost every day and they are a great place to meet new people. You can find a list of upcoming events on the
calendar. The
TF2 Steam Group has a list of upcoming events. Make sure to join so that you are alerted automatically.
Ventrilo
Ventrilo is another way to meet other eGO members. You will often times find folks hanging around. You can ask your questions here or just hang out to chat.
Forums
Being active on the forums is a great way to know people. You might try posting threads about funny videos, great skins, stories about playing on the servers, or DIY TF2 costumes. Don't post threads like: "I miss the _____ server", or "GameME sucks".
For leaving/absence threads such as "I am back/sick or will be gone/afk until ___ because of ___": You may create a leaving/absence thread, but it will be closed after 24 hours. This should give people enough time to take notice and learn of your leaving/absence. It's recommended that you update your signature, and you can even include a link to the thread you made so people can see it.
Other Divisions
You are welcome to play with any of eGOs divisions. If you own other games, feel free to browse those parts of the forums, hang out in ventrilo rooms, or play on the servers. You can find a master server list
here. If you are an eG or eGO ranked member, make sure to
request access to their private admin forums, get your admin working, and keep up to date on their division specific policies.
Orientations and Clan Meetings
Clan Meetings are generally held on the LAST Sunday of every month. We also hold E Orientation meetings, administrator roundtables, and divisional meetings. To find out when, check the
calendar.
Event Coordinators, Admin Trainers, and Recruitment Hosts
There are three principle teams involved in the efficiency of operating the division. Event Coordinators host events for everyone's entertainment. Admin Trainers are responsible for teaching both the basics and the finer points of how to be a good, effective administrator on the servers. Recruitment Hosts chair recruiting drives and specialize in helping others build up their recruitment skills. Membership to any of these teams is a mark of distinction, reflecting one's maturity and potential as a future leader. To see the membership of these groups, check the
rosters.
Leadership
Need to contact Leadership? You can send us a message in the
DropBox or find us in
Ventrilo. Most eG and eGO members can help you too but don't be afraid to come to us.
Council is responsible for ensuring that all divisions within eGO run perfectly and that our membership is informed and happy. All policy is handed down to the clan by them either directly or by delegation to the Division Leaders.

Division Leaders are the highest level of leadership for each division. They are wise, trusted members whose opinions help shape policy within eGO. They report directly to the Council.

Advisors are experienced clan members, essential to keeping eGO running. They are the first level of clan leadership and are the GO-TO people in the event of a problem. They report to their Division Leaders.
