Promotions 2012 - Batch 2

[[DtK] [Jedi] Fishy]

Promotions 2012, Batch 2.

As has been hinted to on forums ranks have been assessed again. We used the same rules on what it takes to get promoted as in April, before then , you didn't have to do much and could still get promoted. Which left us with an odd balance and more Veteran bans than Troopers??????

ALL Neophytes were reviewed as their rank is strictly probationary, and IF they had shown consistent activity in game they have been bumped up to Members, the exceptions being those who got their tags less than 3 months ago, those who had numerous or significant infractions/bans, and those whose behaviour was deemed questionable by the review team and are being kept in the Neophyte rank to be watched.
If you are/were a Neophyte and you find your tags removed it WILL be for one of three reasons, 1.) You’re in game and server activity has been non-existent of late (it does say on the joining ‘Read Here First!!’ page that you must remain active to earn your keep. 2.) You have some significant or numerous bans/infractions. 3.) We made a mistake, I’m not going to lie, this can happen and is why we have left a time period open for protests.
If you were not promoted or lost your tags and you are/were a Neophyte there is a 28 day period from NOW to protest the decision. If you wish to protest you must private message ME and only ME on forums with the following format or your protest will be ignored. Even though I'm on a break, I will log in to check this




STEAM ID: STEAM_0:0:1337
Reason for protest: Because I posted a going away thread link HERE.

(Or whatever your reason is, keep it short and sweet, abuse will also be ignored and an infraction added against you.)





MEMBERS, TROOPERS AND VETERANS!
The M’s, T’s and V’s were approached the same as last time, you have all had since April to nominate those you think worthy (INCLUDING YOURSELVES) and since the only people seeing the forms are Staff it is anonymous and there are NO excuses for not getting yours in. Also on top of that a set of requirements were put in place with what it takes to become a Trooper or Veteran as it was just way to easy to get to Vet. If you had a nomination and did not get a promotion it is because you did not meet these requirements which at this point shall remain a closely guarded secret of the Staff.

So even by reducing our workload so massively it still took almost 12 hours of Skype calls and many hours/evenings of work after to go through this batch. I would like to CONGRATULATE the members who got a promotion and encourage those who didn’t to keep up the work as a lot were oh so close.
We aim to have all the tags updated within 14 days. It will take time as there is a fair bit to be done behind the scenes. Now without further delay, the lucky promoted list!

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL THE VOLUNTEERS WHO HELPED!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS GUYS!!!!

[[DtK] [V] Nandos]

thanks for the promotion

[BigDel]

Probably time on game, mostly active in forums, play a bit of SMDM
Now an then, I'd play more conquest if it stops crashing.

na i dont thinkso its the game time....not sure how they do it...i guess its hard for staff to pick every1 out of a now big dtk group so there is a possibilty that you slipped their list

the post talks more abt neos becoming member, whats the criteria for members becoming troopers?

Congrats to all that got promoted good work guys

how much was my gametime fishy?

[[DtK] [Jedi] TC_TopCat]

Congrats to everyone who was promoted (esp Burlesque)

And thanks to all who helped this plight.

[[DtK] [Jedi] Fishy]

I know its low because as i stated ages ago in the forums i dont play css much, and if i do its on a pug server.

The only thing is its a community so why is it just server time?
Not complaining Just saying.
if DTK ever move to new games is it always just going to be depended on how many hours have been spent in game? i dont know how many hours id have on the forums Lol.

IF that could ever be counted i want to know!.

Both count, But its a gaming community revolving around its gaming servers, thats why it counts, we spoke about your forum activity but when you have <25% of the required server time its too much leeway to give.

Criteria is
Bans
Infractions
Gametime
Joining date (neo not forum joining)

The numbers beside those categories however, are a closely guarded secret Not even the helpers know. :P

BigDel i don't know your hours, you were not nominated I can only bump the nomination thread so many times before I need to cry myself to sleep in the foetal position under my desk :P

Does also time with dtk effect your chances?. Ive been with dtk not even a year and i got ttrooper after like 4 months. So for me to get V i would have to be joind dtk for longer?

[MDnK]

So then,

I'm going to be member forever because I stopped playing CSS because I became an epic rager.

Is there a point to me being in DTK then?

I remember when we would actually get promoted on making contributions to DtK, not just commitment on the forums and servers :/
MDnK has made a massive contribution to the GFX section, he's even on the team, very active on forums.....surely that would deserve T.
Maybe next batch of promotions, hopefully.

Log onto minigames, choose a team, go afk for 30 mins, next map, repeat from choose team.
