    LOA Policy & Proper Use:
    Although we take our KSI duties seriously (and as we should) it is definitely not uncommon for things to come up in our real lives that prevent us from doing KSI work. This is when the usage of an LOA is permitted. As of recent, however, there has been a spike of members that abuse this policy simply to shirk responsibilities. All LOA’s need to be approved by the proper chain of command meaning General or higher. Feeling “burnt out” is not a justifiable defense for taking an LOA. If you are granted an LOA yet you’re online playing every day with people more than you were off of LOA, you will be liable to face punishment and a possible rank loss.
     
    Integrate Recruits:
    It is important that when bringing in new members off of  certain games, we as officers need to remember to help integrate and play those games with them. It does no good to recruit and dump them off with other people/squads all the time. It is our responsibility when we recruit someone of quality (somebody we want to play with) to hang out with them and show them the KSI way.
     
    Invite only parties:
    It is important to remember that during peak hours officers should not be in invite only parties. It sets a bad precedent for our members and might make them think that we don’t want to include them. Sometimes we have to be in invite only parties for meetings and lockdowns but for the most part we can and should be in open party's interacting with other people.That is the reason why we joined KSI.
     
    KSI Live Twitch Channel:
    Don't forget if you haven't already and if you are able, subscribe to the KSI Twitch channel! If you have Amazon Prime you can get one free $5 subscription. Doing this will put you as a VIP and will enable you to take part in the various raffles that are held during the KSI seasonal events such as Spring Break, Spirit Week, Turkey Bowl and Fall Classic.

    ThaHomieRonin reacted to Awoken Lucifer in Self Reflection...Article on lucilux   
    Well no idea Where the hell im gonna post this so im sticking it where ever.......
     
    Okay So in one of my rare self reflection moments and open moods Im Deciding to share somethings about Myself and my life that I ordinarily Keep Closed and undiscussed because I don't enjoy people knowing much about my life outside of KSI im choosing to Do this with the hope it answers somethings about me and why i do what i do.
    My parents are divorced and have been since somewhere in the early 90's (its long enough i honestly don't remember the dates) but it would have been around then because as a child I remember being told i made a classic question relating to "home alone" because i looked ALOT like the kid when i was younger.#
    My father Had been holding in his anger for along time and would have blow outs the same way people who know me know i will sometimes explode with Rage.
    He re-married a wonderful lady who has been a better mother than my own in terms of the emotional and affectionate level and support. Which frankly the womans a saint for being able to handle me and my father lol.
    Now as much as i Love my mother....she Suffered quite badly from depression and extreme shifts in mood and personality before and after the divorce, she has over the years gotten help and is more happy with herself in life as shes aged...and growing up in a household where you never know if your mum is going to be happy and awake or sedated and a home help aid who was paid for by the doctors to effectivly make sure myself and my two sisters were clothed and fed......IS NOT easy and is one of the reasons I dont open myself to people much.
    After the divorce my mother became an english teacher and moved me and my sisters half way up the country..then made the fun mistake of being a disaplinary nutjob to place her own kids in the same school she taught in...so needless to say anybody she disaplined would find me at lunch or after school and beat my ass up for it....yay mum of the year. Then we moved house again down near to the bottom of the country again...each time moving us further away from my father to make it harder for him to spend time with us. She later re married a man who was Born in palestine in the middle east...and hes a decent man who has been a positive influence on my mother and myself.
    After i finished my School education i found work in retail.....i moved in with a self absorbed asswipe from work who was using drugs and had a drinking problem and also was the reason i got into alot of trouble at work when I raised that he had been stealing money, sleeping in the office and had also brought drugs to work before. (the store chose to punish me for "investigating" money losses without management approval despite having proof on the camera's Clearly showing all the things he was doing).
    Now this is where My Health and Stress and anger management and Caffine addiction issues Kicked into high gear. I was working 60 hour weeks. Sleeping maybe 4-5 hours a day max and thats assuming i even bothered to sleep. I had some pretty epic Bouts of depression and Self harm and alot of Physical damage from my job that was escalating and causing more problems than anybody in my family was aware of. 
     My older Sister around this time had already had 2 children (their dads were morons...lol) and my Eldest sister who..well Quite frankly sums up the C word perfectly after she had gone to a university in whales england.
    The eldest Sister Chose to cheat on her long term Boyfriend who spent probably 2/3rds of his paychecks on her and bent over backwards to visit her every single weekend. now the best way i can describe the guy she cheated on with while at university in whales is this simple scale: She went from being with "henry Cavill" to "jason voorhees" unmasked....(thats the most accurate thing i can word this for to show the downgrade in quality lol...incidentally the guy she cheated with just HAPPENS to come from a family who just by PURE coincidence come from money....hmmm funny that)
    Now Skipping ahead.....Eldest sister got Pregnant by the moron....she married him. I didn't Go to the wedding because i was working. Nor did i see my new nephew for 9 months due to work or simply being to broke to travel across the river by ferry and to then get bus tickets up to theirs. Who also btw never bothered to come near my workplace either so meh. 
    Nearly 9 full years ago I had a Dispute going on in my family that had been going on for about 5 years at the time leading back to roughly 2005-2007 between my two sisters, which i was trying to work out what was going on while i was visiting Family in the USA after I had had a FULL breakdown and nearly overdosed on pain killers.
    My Eldest sister Opted at this time to Tell me I was being disowned by her that I officially didn't Exist in HER childs life since I had nothing to offer her or her childs existence and that I couldn't even Do a overdose correctly and screwed that up, that her having a "degree" in Psychology, a husband, a son and a car made her a better person. that everybody in the family thought I was a useless waste of time who would probably end up in jail.
    This led to me learning to Hold nearly Everything inside and not being open with anybody about how i felt or how my life was going and Honestly cause me alot of harm with work, love and life from not being able to be open with people.
    What Got me thru this was a group of people i had never met once in person at all a group called KSI. When i was recruited the time difference made it hard yes..but The people i had around me pushed me to be better over time. While I am Open about why i Chose the name Luci (LuciferLux) because of the wrath and rage and the desire to punish people who wrong me or those i care about..Chaos, Queenjess, Rags, Fuzzymeep, Riiot and Greg are just a couple names...who began fixing me.
    I Moved up in ranks inside Last Strike: LS and Left that division thru my own screw ups and issues. I got into Trouble for Stupid things that i could have avoided.
    After one Particularly bad Incident I was removed from clan ops....which Led to me Creating a division named after myself. LightBringer: LB which to date was possibly one of the best and worst ideas i ever put forward. The idea of LB was to contain people removed from divisions or coming back in from making issues and remold them into better members by correcting them....basicly it was the Prison division and surved that purpose under me.
    I moved up to being a director after a while and had LB LS and i think DM. I left that role also due to my own inate issues.
    (Laffy then Screwed the pooch on LB moaning about being called the prison division and got it renamed to WI "Wicked Intent" <<<like that sounds less bad lolololol. )
    People who took me from being Lucifer to Luci and brought just a little light into my view of people and the world.
    ===================================
    Now go forward 9 years.
    Now im 32 years old...my only drug addiction is smoking.
    I no longer self harm.
    I no longer Drink.
    I have no suicidal thoughts.
    I am Now a house owner with extended family in the USA.
    I have NO children that i have been made aware of.
    I made it all the way to the BOD and became the User support Admin and am a former head of the AAP.
    I have recently started working in retail again and already making progress for potential promotion to a department Head in the store in less than a month of being there because of the amount of work i try to clear and how many positive comments i have had made by customers about how helpful i am to my bosses. 
    I Talk to both of my parents when i can and have plans for them to visit my new house when able to (separate for obvious reasons lololol)
    I have 1 sister i talk to when i can check in with her. (shes working on her 4th kid now)
    I have 1 Genetic Relation with 3 offspring whom despite living in the USA has to date not bothered to try to make amends or even try to make contact in the 3 years i have been here. (but i have since realised that I dont need a sister who Would rather manipulate people around her to feel superior and to marry somebody for money)
    I still Hold in alot of my issues with people and life but i now have people i can open up to and talk to when i need to seek advice and help.
    ==
    ==
    So the moral of this post...I am a broken individual, yet KSI has been putting me back together for 9 years and has done more for me Than I can ever hope to admit or repay....and is STILL helping me and other people who have problems that hold them down.
    sincerly: KSI LuciferLux7 -/- KSI Luci Lux 7

    ThaHomieRonin got a reaction from That Guyy in Outstanding Service Award Level 3 VeRiiTaS 7   
    So I'm going to skip the first 6 months I knew Rita because they weren't very pretty. Like at all. I'll fast forward to after we became cool.
     
    I can personally attest to much of my Director knowledge being only so knowledgeable due to Rita's presence and ingenuity. When I was promoted to such a rank, I had to learn a lot of stuff on the fly. My main resource was Rita, due his activity and our new patched up working status. He provided a lot of adversity to the current things that were happening. Between being on super late at night and active as well during the morning and mid afternoon he was super easy to catch up with. Being on Speed Dial for the community was tough and very few during the time were accomplishing it; but Rita was the best of both worlds. He could spend accurate amounts of time nestled among the BoD during crucial discussions as well as being active (problem and game wise) with the divisions who needed help. This diversity was unique and provided a lot of people with support for all of their endeavors, including myself. The bond between us became very strong as I fought to establish my own leadership.
    Aside from Clan Ops Rita also took the road less traveled by and brought back Marketing. With the plans in mind to reboot the department and let it grow it sustained very quickly. This endeavor has allowed things like the "Div Cup" to flourish with a stable support group. This helps KSI's diversity and member enrichment overall by increasing participation. 
     
    There's more to say, but my mind stopped working. I may come back and edit this if I remember more stuff.

    ThaHomieRonin got a reaction from KSI Havoc 7 in KSI Havoc 7 Outstanding Service Level 2   
    I never really knew Havoc when he was last in the high ranks, so for those accolades the other witnesses will have to suffice. What I do know is that when Havoc came back in to KSI there were a lot of high hopes. His reputation and experiences, from the past, we're utilized in helping DW keep its stability going as well as enhancing the divisions enrichment. Due to Havoc's presence a lot of the division found it's solidarity amongst the 7's staff which included not having to force certain promotions that (at the time) would cluster crowds unecessairily. Goal setting and divisional enrichment arose upon Havoc's return which helped the division move along smoothly; all of this occurring whilst being active within PO. Being able to balance these 2 has probably become second nature but can only add to the diversity of DW and KSI as a whole. I definitely look forward to Havoc's future
