KSI SHIFT FI CHAT (SQUAD)


Skillz 7

Recommended Posts

What's up Knights!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I'll be serving your squad as Co-Founder, as well as Savage, Malice and one other.

I know the squad is young, only a few days old, so this is a prime opportunity for you guys to make sure you build a solid group and make the experience for yourselves and everyone in Knights enjoyable.

I have some suggestions for recruitment tactics that I ran by your General KSI Skillz OG last night, and he seemed to love them. So, with his permission, I'm authorizing Knights to implement the following procedure and REQUIREMENTS for recruiting into the Knights squad (I will post them below separately). This recruiting procedure will help you guys build a solid squad and help you guys raise your wins and KD's.

Guys, I am here for you. If you want to move up, and you feel you want more knowledge or advice on something... use me. I will help you impress your General so you are in a position where he feels you should be promoted, if you are mature and willing to show dedication to your squad. Don't hesitate if you need me.

We are going to start having some fun weekly activities that will be announced shortly, so look forward to that.

Hit me up, and I'll see you guys in game! And keep the forums active, we're going to be doing big things here too.

DL all the way!

This is the RECRUITING STANDARD for KSI KNIGHTS DL:

ALL SGT's should be taught to follow this procedure:

1. Play a few games before even bringing up KSI to the recruit, make sure it's someone you and everyone else would like to play with EVERY DAY. Look for a 1.0 or better K/D, good teamwork/communication skills and maturity. If you see somebody like this, invite them to play with you and see how it goes. If you hate playing against them... don't get mad and talk trash... get them on your team!

2. Verify recruit is age 16 or up. For 15 or lower, your General or a Captain must meet and approve the recruit before you do anything.

3. Inform recruit about KSI basics (KSI stands forknowledge, strength, integrity), we are a gaming community sponsored in the past by Treyarch, sponsored currently by E-Gaming and likely soon to pick up other sponsors, 3400+ members, split into divisions (ours is Dark Legions), which are split into squads (yours is Knights).

4. If they like what they here, let them know due to the structure of our community and sponsors, we abide by a code of conduct. Read them the below, and make each point your own (dont just skim over them super fast, if you talk a little bit about each part they will understand and remember this better).

KSI's CODE OF CONDUCT

In order to maintain the high standards of membership in KSI, and to continue to represent the KSI community, all members MUST understand and abide by the following "Code of Conduct".

1. Every KSI member must read and understand the Xbox Live® Terms of Service and Code of Conduct.

“Obviously, you play on Xbox Live and had to agree to the terms of service in order to participate in XBL, so it goes without saying that we expect you to follow the guidelines outlined thereinâ€

2. KSI does not tolerate discrimination, racism, or harassment, by or towards, any member of KSI in game lobbies, chat forums, or gaming situations of any type.

“When you are participating in the forums, XBL or any other activity that is part of the KSI community, you represent KSI, even in non-KSI related games if you have changed your gamer tag, and you should represent KSI in a positive fashion. You made the decision to be part of this community and you should, by example, encourage others to do the same. Do not make fun of anyone because of their race, gender, religion, region of the world, accent, etc… Treat everyone with respect.â€

3. Leaders within KSI are responsible for: the organization of all squad matches and practices, posting match scores, maintaining professional game play during squad matches, and oversight of performance and behavior of lower ranking members.

“This doesn’t apply to you yet, since you are a new recruit, but it should inspire you to gain higher ranks so that you can start to take part in the employment of these activities as a leader. Additionally, this also gives you a guideline of what to expect from your leaders so that you can, politely and with tact, help them make sure that they are setting the proper example and leading effectively. If you see something that seems “off†then you should work to get promoted so that you can have more influence in taking care of your other members.â€

4. A KSI member: NEVER LEAVES ANOTHER KSI MEMBER BEHIND.

“This is pretty self explanatory. If a member goes down in the game and can be revived, then revive them. It also applies to other situations though: If a member has a question, concern, or other issue that you can help them with, please do so. We like to think of KSI as being a family and the way that we promote that way of thinking is by taking care of each other.â€

5. All members have an "Open Door Policy" to speak with Leaders and Founders on any issues or with any ideas.

“You, as a member of KSI, have the right to talk to your leadership about issues, both your own and ones within the squad/division/clan. However, please make sure that you follow proper protocol and take the issue to your LT or CPT first so that they are aware of the issue. No one likes to be blindsided with an issue and it is respectful to let your immediate level of leadership know/try to help before it must go higher. Additionally, you can post any issues on the forums, which are an invaluable resource and tool. Check out my bio for the address and make sure to sign up for the forums. You will be able to meet other members and build connections with hundreds of other players on XBL. Once you register, make sure you check your email and validate your logon so that you can start posting.â€

6. A KSI member takes pride in his or her membership and is encouraged to change their gamer tag within 60 days.

“You absolutely do not have to change your gamertag in order to be a happy and successful member of KSI. Many players are just casual gamers that want to have a large player base to associate with. However, if you want to get promoted to the rank of SGT or higher, then you will need to change your gamertag in order to reflect your affiliation to KSI. By changing your gamertag, you are advertising KSI in any game that you play on XBL, even outside of the regular KSI games. This is a good thing! When you change your gamertag, you are saying “I am proud to be in KSI and I want everyone to know that KSI is awesome enough to add to my gamertagâ€. As long as you continue to represent KSI positively, this will lead to people asking you about the “KSI†in your gamertag and that will give you the chance to talk about KSI and possibly get a new recruit!â€

7. KSI members must maintain a professional manner and attitude during play as well as within lobby chat.

“If you are in a lobby and someone starts cussing you out or talking trash, MUTE THEM! Show that you are the better person and just use the “Mighty Mute Buttonâ€. Not only does that show the other person that they have no power over your emotions, but it also shows the other players in the lobby that members of KSI maintain a high standard of conduct, which will possibly lead to people wanting to join and then you will be able to recruit them! You also need to make sure to maintain proper conduct when using the forums.â€

8. KSI members are not permitted to be a part of any other gaming league unless they are within the alliance of KSI affiliated leagues.

“Once you get logged onto the forums, you will be able to access the thread about our affiliates. Make sure that you associate only with our affiliates and if you have questions about other possible affiliates, feel free to use the Open Door Policy to ask your leadership questions about it, but definitely get on the forums and check it out too.â€

9. All KSI members must be the age of seventeen on games rated M (Mature) ESRB RATINGS

“Any exceptions to this rule need to be run through your General and they will bring them to the proper authority for permission.â€

10. The list of prohibited activities includes, but is not limited to: Illegal Drugs, Software and other forms of piracy, Racketeering, Money laundering, Blackmail, Murder, Child ****ography, Prostitution, Bestiality, Incest, Slavery, Fraud, Cannibalism, Theft, Vigilantism, Harassment, and Acts of Treason. ALL KSI MEMBERS ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND KSI's "CODE OF CONDUCT."

“If you are doing anything in your personal life that violates these rules; KEEP THEM IN YOUR PERSONAL LIFE. We are not trying to control your personal life, however, we maintain a positive and uplifting environment in our forums and game sessions. So, please, don’t talk about eating people in our games LOLâ€

“Do you have any questions about anything that we have gone over?â€

“Do you agree to follow the Code of Conduct of KSI?â€

“Welcome to KSI!â€

(NOTE: It is good to have another member or two in the party with you as they will be able to cheer for the newbie too and really make the new recruit feel welcome.)

Once this is complete, walk them through the steps of Updating their motto and bio and make sure that they add the Recruit tag (KSI DL Recruit) to their friends list. Make sure that you verify their motto and bio before you go back to playing. Inform them of the squad meeting time and day and explain the importance of them being there (meet more members, get the latest information and get information about upcoming events, etc...)

Explain to them that the recruit tag is not a person but a place we store all of the incoming recruits for the division.

Let the new recruit know that at some point, in the next few days, a KSI trainer will pull them into a party and conduct their new recruit training so that the new recruit can get promoted to PVT and get started moving up the ranks! Make sure they understand that the may be trained by someone other than their recruiter. We have had recruits refuse to join parties for training, even after being sent messages informing them of the intent of the party.

Make sure to tell the recruit who their 1CPT and General are and then inform them of the significance of KSI members that have a “7†at the end of their gamertag. (Note: our 7s are key to our operations and should be respected, make sure that the new member knows and understands that 7s can kick them out and ban them from the clan/forums. We want to avoid new members being unaware of what having a 7 means and then making out-of-line comments/flaming our 7s)

Additionally, make sure that for the next few days, you play with your new recruits and introduce them to other members of your squad so that they can build new friendships and a lasting positive connection with KSI.

Have recruit send KSI Skillz OG a friends request (your General) and also:

Your Captains, Lieutenants!

Add them as a friend to your own list, encourage them to add Knights members to their list and MAKE SURE TO PLAY WITH THEM whenever you see them on during their first week and each time you invite them, INTRODUCE THEM to your friends in the squad and make sure everyone adds them to their own friends lists!

What's up Knights!

I'm VERY happy to see so much activity here from you guys. Keep it up, keep your members coming here. Remember this forum site is the key to the future of KSI, and to unlocking awesome stuff for all of us in the future.

When this Chat forum hits 5 pages, I will do something special for your squad and have a signature picture made for you guys to use.

Also, starting this coming Thursday, I am implementing a Chill Day every Thursday. No recruiting, no training, no dealing with administrative squad stuff. We will do big lobbies and do fun games like Gun Game, Drop Zone, One in the Chamber, Infected, S&D, CTF, etc all just Private Matches for fun. People can challenge each other and do grudge matches while the rest of us spectate.

We are going to do it big guys. Remember I'm around to help you guys if you need anything, but also remember to use your rank structure as much as you can.

I'd like to see you guys hold a recruiting workshop with the new Recruiting Standards that I posted on the first page so all of your Sergeants are on the same page. I'll be happy to be there to explain the reasons and give it an extra authority, if you'd like.

Hit me up for whatever, I'm here for you.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday guys! I'm just letting everyone know I'm going to be running a lobby concurrently with the SuperBowl, so if you're interested in watching the game at home with your friends and family, and also partying with Dark Legions, send me a message half an hour before coin toss (about 5:30). I'll have 18 spots in the lobby so it will be first come, first serve.

See you guys there, come root for your favorite team and be RESPECTFUL of everyone else's opinions! So come ready to eat, drink and have FUN!

Knights!

What's going on gentlemen.

You guys who are being active on the forums are doing great, I'm really pleased to see that.

Just wanted to check in and make sure all is well with everyone, and remind you guys to hit me up with whatever issues that your rank structure isn't able to handle, or if you have administrative questions, or if you just need to talk and ask me whether I wear boxers or briefs.

Later guys, keep it strong and hit me up for some games!
