Due to the new method of officer recruitment, your previous applications are nothing (sorry, don't mean to make it sound that bad :) ).

You will have to apply again under these new rules:

  • You must be a regular poster.
  • You must be a veteran of Mass Effect, with at least two clearances of the game.
  • You must be a veteran of Mass Effect 2, with at least two clearances also.
  • You must be approved by the majority of other officers, not just me or a few of them.
  • You must be at least level seven on GameSpot.


When you have all these, you will be tested on your knowledge by random Mass Effect related questions. Of course, there might be an exception if you contribute massively to our union.

I would now like to ask all officers to comment on these new terms and perhaps make further suggestions.

It's like when you break GS's rules, and a mod or admin gives you some sort of punishment.

You must be a regular poster. (I used to use internet cafes, but now I am online I have been bloging 24 hrs straight)

You must be a veteran of Mass Effect, with at least two clearances of the game. 30 times not including what I had to do when my X360 crashed

You must be approved by the majority of other officers, not just me or a few of them. Thats up to you guys.

You must be at least level five on GameSpot. Lv 7

You must have a low moderation history. Don't have a history.

Hmmm... I approve, but you'll have to wait for the officers to give their opinions. Remember though, you'll still have to answer some Mass Effect related questions after you've been approved....

I do not own the books or DLC (I'll have to upgrade my modem for X360 support ) but as you can tell from your quiz I know a fair bit about the main game.

Id love to do it, but figured with my mod history...However, Im probably one of the few people able to keep an account from being banned for 5 years and still be a regular poster on system wars...thats tough.

.

.

Anyway, like I said earlier, I have a fair amount of experience. I was a co-founder of the initial shooters union. So, I know how do to everything that comes with being an officer. 

.

.

This being said, I still cannot promise how much time I can spend on the site come the beginning of the next semester.

Its up to N7, but you've been active enough to be worthy of promotion, in my opinion.

Every officer... but unfortunately anubis_realm has gone away and he doesn't know when he'll return. Delphanius is on holiday, I think.

Storms in Victoria are very fast. We have been in a drought for 17 years now. The thunder is going away slowly but we are only 35 mins from New Years Day and I looks like the fire works are canceled for my area. Hopefully any one partying around the ugly Federation Square will get clear skies, it looks like hell there all ready Lol :lol:

Thank you and yes I am, as a matter of fact my mothers side of the family comes from TAS like you and most of them live in Hobart. They immigrated there from Ireland and Scotland around 150 years ago.

I just found the union today, I meet every requirement, so when I prove my worth in posting around here for a few weeks I hope you'll consider me.  I like what goes on here. I want to keep it rolling.

For future reference, the officers are posters who contribute regularly to the union, and are thus judged to be deserving of the honor. We like to see dedication and regular posting in our officers.

Can we at least have ranks, Corporal, Lt, Commander, Captain, XO, and if you don't like the idea yet @N7v1K0 you'd be Admiral lol. This would separate us from the other Unions and look cool next to our names.

BTW N7v1K0 you would have to chose who would become of what rank.

Well are you prepared then to take on the 25 qs?

BTW, I don't see how we can do the ranks thing Falcon suggested, as this recruit,officer, and leader stuff can't be changed. Although... maybe we could do something like what I said in the very 1st post of the images thread...
