  1. I second this. I recommend this member for the Hall of fame. I was in Forced Induction when he was and I saw him split squads, spend thousands of hours in personal training with other members, recruiting hundreds of members, training future leaders, increasing activity on the forums by mentoring members, leading mentoring groups, and actively making sure every member felt like they had a place in this community. To be nominated for this I think a member has to have done things that have improved the community as a whole on a huge scale. Without a doubt he has drastically improved this community. There is no other member I know except Swag who has spent thousands of hours improving this community by all together recruiting, training, mentoring, and spending time with at a least thousands of potential members and hundreds of members. Those thousands of hours that could have been spent doing other things including work, school, personal life stuff he spent instead helping this community to become better. This isn't even considering the amount of people who he trained that have become leaders themselves and the amount of people they have helped. We are talking about 3000+ plus people being impacted by this member in a positive way by being recruited, trained, or spent time with. If that If that alone isn't worth being in the hall of fame I don't know what is.
  2. Hi! For some reason my message feature wasn't working. It won't let me add text to the message. Anyway, I am an old member from FI and wanted to say that you look exactly like an old member named KSI FatallyFoxy. You could be twins! She was also in FI with me for quite a while.

  3. Did you get involved in Clan Ops fully? I never thought I'd see that ! : )  Hope you remember me! - Plex 

  4. There are so many words I could use to describe the experiences I've had in KSI but I chose to say only one, and that is profound. This word is attributed to my experiences that were wrapped up in intense emotion, that were difficult to understand, and yet very deep and life changing.  I miss this community with so very much. But more importantly, I'm thankful for the lessons I learned, the memories I've made, and the time well spent. I hope to open up a new chapter in my life, including KSI, even if it is a few years later. Missing FI, missing my friends, and missing everyone that made my experience worth while.

  6. Terra has helped out on numerous occasions. She has given 10 dollar cards for CPLs to change their gamertags to KSI and has also bought 3 month xbox live cards for members who ran out of live and couldn't afford to renew their membership.

  8. This is going to be a long post so please bear with me. Shinobi is an outstanding leader. From the time I joined I've witnessed Shinobi sacrifice countless nights of sleep just so that he could be online with his members to help them out or to just be there for them, as a friend. Not to mention Shinobi works and takes care of his kids along with his newest baby. Even if he can't speak on the mic on some nights because of his newest born he will make sure to talk to us on kik or xbl messages. His selflessness is also demonstrated by his ability to stick up for our division even if it were to means costing his own rank. Shinobi has demonstrated an ability to be selfless by putting his division before his personal life via sacrifice. Secondly, Shinobi's leadership style definitely yields outstanding service. Shinobi makes sure that if the division is running properly that he will continue to check in on members, officers, gens, and fellow sevens to make sure the div is actually preforming well, firsthand. Shinobi, even as a div leader, involves himself with the lower ranking members as I have witnessed firsthand in my squad. There is no air of superiority or indication of rank in his conversation because Shinobi understands what is absolutely crucial for anyone to to receive this award which is that what sets KSI apart is that we are a family. Any outstanding leader in the community will recognize and contribute to our sense of familial commmunity and Shinobi does just that. Shinobi along with usually a full party's long night conversations (despite him having work with 30 mins of sleep) are a direct indication of that. Thirdly, Shinobi along with the other sevens have purged any disrespect or harassment. Shinobi makes our division a safe place for KSI members and that is something that should be considered. When members have told me that they feel safer in our division than they do in their own house with their own family, you know that div leader must be leading the rest of the members correctly. Without Shinoibi's low tolerance for harassment of any kind FI might not be a safe haven free from any type of hate. This is a direct result of successful coordination between him and our seven staff. My fourth reason is that Shinobi does not stifle leadership, he promotes it. Shinobi understands his responsibility for the division as the div leader but also recognizes that the lower ranking members "run" the division as they are the ones putting on day to day operations. Shinobi allows the seven's, gens, and officers to implement programs freely such as CPL Showdowns or the basic operations of our division's welcoming committee. He does not dictate our every move but gives us an outline of what would be best, allowing us to develop our own leadership from such guidelines. That is the definition of an outstanding leader. I must conclude with the fact that FI is almost the largest division in KSI. Without Shinobi's leadership and never give up attitude, I dont think this would be possible. He's a great friend, a great div-leader, and overall caring and outstanding person.
  9. Name: (Member-/-Squad-/-Division of the person you are nominating) KSI MFLSwagg21 - Ignite - FI Link to Forums Account: http://www.ksiforums.org/user/17174-ksi-mflswagg21/ Award-/-Achievement: (The award you are nominating this person for) Squad Splitter Reason-/-Evidence: (Please give reasons to why this person is deserving of the award you are nominating them for) Swag split Ignite as General and created Carbon FI. (Edit: I see that the addendum is that the new squad must grow by 25 members within 2 months of splitting. Is that 25 member growth after all of the members have been transferred over?)
  10. Madness recently assisted me in some questions I had regarding his squad, for training purposes.
  11. King Bear has been my personal mentor for quite some time helping me out with many KSI questions
  12. When I first joined KSI Sketch made sure to answer every question I asked. Once I gained a more basic understanding of KSI I began to ask him specifics like who the generals were, what his squad was like, and how to run game nights. Looking back on it, he answered those questions accurately and quickly.
  13. Im an ex-general of FI so I'd like to say that this post has credibility. I worked directly with King Bear with for quite some time as generals together. There so many reasons why he deserves this away, so I'll explain them. King Bear has, even after I was no longer able to be a general, kept up with and created a KSI welcoming committee. He was the main leader for this beside myself as he made sure to go out of his way as he held gamenights for new members and made sure to host CPL showdowns each week. He took charge next with the divisional gamenights but went even further with our own Friday night tournaments that operated on a divisional level complete with prizes and all. He is one of those members who assists every single squad when they need help as far as recruiting, morale, and training. I think what qualifies him even more so is his patience. His time for promotion went by quite slowly, more so than others who were promoted more quickly. Even though he had to wait such a long time, he did not give up and he kept on doing even more than his position required as I've mentioned above. He takes the initiative to establish multi-squad/cross-squad communications by organizing multi-squad/cross-squad game nights and training sessions which has so many benefits, one's I will not list as his actual preforming of such activities are much more important in regards to the award. Another thing that qualifies him for the award is that he intentionally gets to know and treat every single member of the division possible like family by developing personal relationships through one on one time in party chat and in game lobbies. A good leader will preform his duties as required but an outstanding leader will create a vision to constantly improve his or her division and act on that visions. As explained, King Bear has that vision and acts upon it.
  14. I can personally attest to having seen him give out name changes to privates and corporals, not to mention hosting many private-corporal showdowns and game nights.
  15. Member Assistance- Unicron Helped me out a ton when I first joined as far as filling in the gaps regarding knowledge and procedure. I take things very literally and am a by the book person but he helped me to find a much more relaxed and enjoyable style of leadership that poured out into my teaching and hosting events. OS LVL 1- He has withstood the test of time, as many have not, as far as sticking with the KSI Global program and waiting lengthy times for promotions. He goes above and beyond and an example of this is when he left his squad to go help out a dying squad that desperately needed help. Along with Azrael, they re-shaped the squad and brought it to close to splitting numbers within a month maybe two with a full officer staff. Most people would prefer to stay in the comforts of their squad and have some sort of security and comfort of mind that they are in a good squad but few would work hard to bring up another squad (especially out of a non selfish reasoning). Another reason he deserves this is due to the way he interacts with the members. I know few people in KSI who have the ability to tell people what needs to be said but do it in the most respectful, non-condescending, and strict/loving manner all in the same package. Because of the amount of disrespect i've seen in the community over my time, I love it when I am able to say I know someone who exemplifies all the qualities that a leader should have. That is important to the nomination because having those qualities is a NECESSITY to doing outstanding work. Unicron has provided name changes to members who could not afford such name change to KSI, he has partnered with me in the past to re-create FI's tournies, he has worked with me and with my previous squad to help build it, he has helped out by being an FI welcoming committee officer as well as hosting welcoming committee events, he has turned to upper leadership to receive guidance and training on how to be better in his position, he has given his time and money to KSI since he first joined and has not stopped since. For a non-profit position I'd say that's pretty outstanding service. I know it is often a sub-concious thing some of us do, but please do not give my witness statement less stature because of the fact that I am a sergeant, I was an ex-general, I know what i'm talking about

  18. Lieutenant Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) -KSI Its Anarchy (Lieutenant - FI/Torque Link to forums account http://www.ksiforums.org/user/21527-ksi-its-anarchy/ Reason why they deserve this: KSI Its Anarchy has recruited most of his squad after the split and has made sure that gamenights are happening every week, new officers are being brought up and trained, and that members are being gamed with and talked to. He constantly checks members' mottos and bios to make sure they are in uniform and he spreads the word about invite only parties and why we have that policy. He recently has a made a huge push in forums activity by constantly communicating with EVERY SINGLE division on a daily basis in order to reach out to all of KSI. He makes a point to host divisional gamenights every Friday as well as to join other divisions gamenights. I can already see Senior Director potential in this member with the things he does now. He goes above and beyond by doing the duties of a Captain while still maintaining weekly recruiting and squad growth. He is the reason that squad has thrived after their split.
  19. Acid, a quality div leader and a quality person. I think the two have to go hand in hand for someone to win this award. In order to lead a division one must be able to work alongside the members and leadership of a division. However, in order to lead a division well, one must be able to build relationships with every leader in the division and be able to properly guide them in their operations and decisions. This is exactly what Acid does by interacting with members of all ranks within the division. That's not the biggest reason for why he deserves this award though. The biggest reason is that no matter what FI goes through (and we've been through quite a bit recently) he is there to support us 100 percent of the way no matter if it brings harm to himself. That is a huge indicator of integrity and a huge indicator that he truly loves and cares for his division and the people within it. A mediocre div leader may or may not support his decision through every situation. An outstanding div leader will support and stand behind their division through good times and bad times, and this is exactly what Acid does. He is fair with his decisions, accurate with information, and always personable enough to be able to be spoken to about anything as a level of comfortableness exists when bringing things to him because he is approachable and fair - seen and told from a first hand witness who has been able to see Acid through all sorts of situations.
  20. Still Linkin Park - all the way
