TBH this should just be the new award system. Master recruiter? Get a card!

Good evening,
I am humbly requesting KSI formalize my title at KSI Greeting Card Czar.
I have an extensive portfolio of greeting cards made to improve morale and formalize greetings and reinforce good behavior (and discourage bad behavior and naughty thoughts.)
Some examples I have are:
love letters to animals promotion announcements positive outcome reinforcement silly little jokes to keep things light eviction notice and many more Evidence of creation attached.
I have tagged my character references and hope to have good feedback as I believe my greeting cards are the missing ingredient to the stew you got simmering on the stove.

Thanks to Impys cards my wife and kids came back, im no longer bald and grew 3 inches taller

I can attest to this statement as I have received multiple cards from Impy. The card quality is always superb, and card messages are one of a kind. No complaints. 10/10 would highly recommend.

Award-/-Achievement: Monthly Donor Award (LGTBQ thingy please)
Reason-/-Evidence: Image is attached. Bane told me my 1,000 bits donation counts towards a monthly donation total and I can claim the LGTBQ award for donating. If this is wrong, please give me the award anyway and ban Bane from providing bad advice in the Department Discord server. I’ve been a good boy and think I deserve most of the awards.

Honestly, looking over my 6 year KSI career it’s really boiled down to 3 people.
 
First, it would be @KSI Nick 7  aka Mr. Big Earrings. Although he’s not around anymore, he was the guy who sparked the fire in me to join the community to begin with and worked with me in my time in Legendary Warriors. He was instrumental in my growth as a Clan Ops leader and took me under his wing. I will forever be grateful for him.
Secondly, @Impy. Impy played a big part in getting me involved in the Department Ops scene back in the day. I was a News Writer for him for awhile during his time as Department Head and he was over me as Chief Department Manager when he promoted me to Department Head of History. He was always there to help guide me in the right direction and made me feel like a valued member and leader in this community.
Third and Finally, @KSI Airborne 7 . Airborne has been my mentor since day 1 of joining the AAP Department. He pushed not only myself but the whole department to be great. He helped revitalize and enrich my department leadership skills and it always readily available to lend a helping hand or just have a casual conversation. I owe this man a lot for believing in me and taking me under his wing. I constantly bounce ideas off him and gameplan stuff with him to ensure that the AAP is constantly evolving and catering to recognizing members through all walks of the community. I credit my success to this man. Without him, I would not be the leader I am today.
 
Thank you all for everything you do.

My usual go-to is the Fennec, and I’m offended it wasn’t listed.
I also switch between Octane, Breakout, Merc, and Scarab depending on how I’m feeling.
Every car of mine also has the Bunny Ears topper just because I like them.

Having read through the other replies, I can’t help but agree that Drop deserves this award.
He’s been in KSI longer than most, and his influence and contributions are a testimony to his dedication and commitment to the community.
When I was still active within KSI, Drop was a leader who led by example. He took charge at Leadership Council meetings and made himself available for mentorship and conversations that would help grow better leaders around him and improve KSI for all members.
He led T&E through a period of remarkable growth and consistency and he’s been a hallmark on the Forums, helping making community members’ online experiences fruitful and positive.
Drop is a model leader and community member and he has long deserved this award. I will always be willing to go to bat for this man because of his high character and positive influence to KSI. KSI as its known wouldn’t exist without contributions and sacrifices from Drop, and to have that type of influence is rare and deserving of praise.

We will be pushing more out through Clan Ops meetings this week and in the future.
To comment on your concerns though, the new Divisional Cup is just an award for points gained during our major events. For every major event, we produce a scoreboard. Only the events on that scoreboard go towards Divisional Cup.
As far as Division of the Year, we will be looking at options for that. The two most likely options are either 1) work off of accomplishments, Leaders, improvement, and other criteria to determine which division has performed the best while being an example of what KSI should stand for or 2) allow nominations and testimony from members to make the argument for Division of the Year. A hybrid of those two may also be considered.
But there is no longer going to be any type of scoreboard mechanism for Department or Forum participation in naming a Division of the Year. We don’t want people doing things or feeling pressured to do things for points or to make their Division look good. We just want people to participate in the areas they personally want to. 
Long term events may be factored, but we do not have any on-going so we won’t commit to their inclusion until a groundwork is laid for those events.
So the underlying, and very clear message is, do things in this community because you want to. Not because you have to outwork everyone else. We want people to have fun, and it became evident through survey responses and communication with leaders that 3 more months of the previous system would have done more harm than good.

King's history in KSI and long and full of accomplishments. He's a determined leader who has battled adversity to get where he is now.
While he wasn't always the ideal member, his perseverance and dedication to trying to improve as a leader and a person is admirable, and sets a standard for the commitment to excellence that KSI members would be wise to follow.
Every division he's been involved with has become stronger from his participation and presence, and I'm not sure there's a greater indication of cause and effect. While those divisions often face their own challenge -- what division doesn't? -- King's attitude and determination rubs off on those around him. He brings out the best of those leaders and members he works with, and they often have effusive praise about his knowledge, leadership, and empathy.
King absolutely deserves an award of this magnitude. He's been through a bunch in this community, and he's always trying to do more. He has risen to the top through those characteristics, and it's those traits that make him deserving of such a big award.

For being a donor to KSI, here is a sneak peak into Spring Break 2019. The penalty for sharing this schedule outside this area is... non-existent. But what's the perk of donating if the perks are shared?
Spring Break Schedule:
Friday, March 22nd:
8 p.m. KSILive: Spring Break Town Hall Friday, March 29th: 
Spring Break Poll 8 p.m. KSILive: PUBG Customs (4v4 - 2 teams/div) 8 p.m. KSILive 2: Halo 5 (4v4 CTF - 1 or 2 teams/div) Following PUBG: 7s GTA V (Sumo - 2 reps/div) Saturday, March 30th:
All Night: Trivia Night through Discord Chat* 8 p.m KSILive: Rainbow Six Siege (3v3 Bomb - 2 teams/div - Single Elim) 8 p.m. KSILive 2: Overwatch (4v4 TDM - 1 team/div) Following R6S: 7s Prominence Poker (2 reps/div) Sunday, March 31st:
6 p.m: BoD Closing Ceremony and Divisional HoF Inductions 6 p.m. KSILive: CoD Black Ops 4 (4v4 TDM - 2 teams/div - Single Elim) Following the TDM: 7s CoD Black Ops 4 (FFA - 2 reps/div) *- The Trivia Night will be decided on the most correct answers made by members in chat from the respective divisions. Each member can only be picked as the correct answerer once, so the more members in chat, the better the chance of winning points for your division. Answering a trivia question correctly does not win you a money prize.
---
Prizes for the gameplay tournaments will be $10 codes, given out to the winners of each individual event. Total prizes for the competition will value ~$220.
The Twitch Sub Drawing will happen on Sunday evening. Anybody who subscribes to KSILive before 6 p.m. that night will be entered into the drawing for a larger prize. We may do more than one drawing, depending on Subscriptions. (Reminder: All Subscription revenue is used exclusively for prize pools for events, and the more Subs we get, the more prizes (and the bigger the prizes) we can offer.)
