CLAN OPS NOTES

 

New Director List/ Assignments
 

Below is the recently updated list of Directors and their assignments. HUGE congratulations to KSI Gruntier 7 (previously DM) and KSI HAVOC 7 (previously DW) on their promotions to Director!

KSI Gruntier 7 - DM

KSI HAVOC 7 - WD

KSI TexAngel 7 - DL

KSI Gary 7 - DW

KSI Ronin 77 (SR) - LS

KSI Gambit 7 (SR) - ES/SL

 

No Excuses

As a member of KSI, it is important that you hold yourself accountable for both your knowledge and actions on a daily basis. This fact however, rings especially true for all ranking members of SSGT or higher. The excuse of “I was never trained how to do this” is NO LONGER VALID. There are infinite resources around you via fellow officers, divisional leadership, senior leadership, and most importantly, the forums where all practices and procedures are documented for replication. If you don’t know how to do something, look it up or simply ask and those around you will help.

 

Holiday Meetings

Remember that Squad and Officer Meetings can be rescheduled if they fall on a holiday. With that in mind send one invite maybe two but DO NOT spam invites till they join. Our members and officers deserve to enjoy holidays with their loved ones.   

 

OMEGA Update

It is really important as leaders within the community to ensure we are making sure we are logging into the Omega on a regular basis. We have noticed a number of people not logging in days at a time.EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, once someone reaches the 7 day mark, unless you are on an approved leave of absence your Omega account will be automatically suspended and further repercussions shall occur. Warning 1 results in Rank suspension, strike 2 results in demotion.

 

Support Each Other

As an officer it’s important to show support for your fellow officers. If a fellow officer is hosting a game night and your online either by yourself or with fellow squad mates you can and should join the game night and bring the others with you. We all know what it’s like to have no one show up to a game night but we can support each other, we’re all in this together.

 

Recruiting Techniques

When we are out recruiting, after a while using the same methods and techniques can make it seem a little stale and sometimes we won't see the same results. Change your methods, try using a different message, perhaps jump into a recruiting party, there are numerous ways to alter the way you recruit. If you feel you are out of ideas, reach out to other members, officers and 7's.

Marketing

Activity - Moving forward into Marketing, we'd like to continue to push and encourage members to partake in the events of the community. Some events we'd like to see more participants in due to the differences in Popularity in said events, Weekend Warfare is a really popular Event that gets a lot of people playing each Week, Nomination events and Discussions aren't as popular but we'd like to encourage every member to go see what these events are, and the Officers/Marketing Reps, to encourage and take the members and do it with them. (Activity is not a Requirement to the degree you have to do everything, but there is a lot of Variety and events to experiment with and try.) Welcome to the Team! - Please welcome our newest Representive from SL, KSI YeetQueen! Please be sure to message her a Congratulations! If you have any Questions please message KSI Nebula 7, or KSI DropShot 7, or your Divisional Representitives! From, Marketing~

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. You can also receive various awards and a forums group.

Spirit Week 2019 Update

 

Spirit Week has been officially announced and all sign ups are posted! DO NOT WAIT until the last week to get all your tryouts hosted and sign ups posted as late sign ups WILL NOT BE PERMITTED. You have 2 weeks to accomplish this so get it done. There have also been some edits to the announcement found on the forums, as it was posted sloppily the first time so please revisit it if you have not already. Its Spirit Week y'all so get hype and encourage your members non stop for participation and to better their KSI experience!

 

Subscription Push / Donor Event

 

IMPORTANT: It is a huge, huge thing for us to have all the members who can subscribe/donate to our twitch channel (twitch.tv/KSILive). Subbing is only $5 per month or is absolutely free if you have Amazon Prime. All of the money donated goes right back into our annual events in the form of prize money, give-aways, and gift-cards. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SUBSCRIBED, please make sure that you have posted for yourself on the forums under the AAP section to receive your award and VIP access on the forums. This will be required in order to participate in any Donor Events for the foreseeable future.

 

Push for Community involvement Universally:

 

To all members in the community, specifically the leaders: Get involved in departments and Div Cup. These are 2 crucial components to this community and it is the duty of every member and leader, to at least try to get involved with them and if not, push those around you to do so. Again, why not optimize your KSI Experience by trying everything that you can to see what it is that you want to do in your career with us?

 

Transparency

 

Divisional & Squad Leadership - Please remember that although every decision may not be one open for discussion/debate, It is important to be as transparent as possible with the leaders and members beneath you. When making decisions about what direction a squad/division heads in or any promotions/demotions that may be received, It is important to keep those under you informed as to why these things are happening and why certain decisions are made. The ultimate way to reach a feeling of inclusion and family is for people to have their thoughts and feelings taken into consideration.

 

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.


 

Positivity

 

Make sure that when we as leaders are dealing with issues that we are not venting towards or creating an air of negativity. It is our job, as leaders within the community to handle and address issues as they come up, doing our jobs should never impact our members and their experience.

 

HSI Stats

 

Please make sure we are getting these done and back to your Directors in a timely manner. This is not a hard process to complete and we only ask for them once a month. This helps track your Divisions growth and History. We all need to work together to make sure our Divisions have accurate History for the future members of KSI to look upon.  

 

DEPARTMENT NOTES

Spirit Week 2019 Final Update (Keep Until SW):

You now have exactly 1 week to get all of your divisional teams signed up for every event! This is a big deal so PLEASE stay on top of hosting tryouts and getting rosters organized. Late Sign Ups WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. We understand that Divisions may not have a team for every event but that is not an excuse to not participate in anything!

Subscription Push / Donor Event (Keep Until SW):

IMPORTANT: It is a huge, huge thing for us to have all the members who can subscribe/donate to our twitch channel (twitch.tv/KSILive). Subbing is only $5 per month or is absolutely free if you have Amazon Prime. All of the money donated goes right back into our annual events in the form of prize money, give-aways, and gift-cards. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SUBSCRIBED, please make sure that you have posted for yourself on the forums under the AAP section to receive your award and VIP access on the forums. This will be required in order to participate in any Donor Events for the foreseeable future.


Professionalism: (6/12/19)

Please remember that in this community, we highly value respect between members regardless of rank or stature. It is important that during normal conversation (and specifically when having an issue with a member or leader) that professional tones and languages are maintained. Leaders: Just because you have a rank doesn't mean you can talk to members however you please. Members: Although you do not have a rank to lose, you are a member of this community and thus will show respect to each other. Any violations of respect or unprofessionalism should be reported to the proper chain of command.  

Push for Community involvement Universally:

To all members in the community, specifically the leaders: Get involved in departments and Div Cup. These are 2 crucial components to this community and it is the duty of every member and leader, to at least try to get involved with them and if not, push those around you to do so. Again, why not optimize your KSI Experience by trying everything that you can to see what it is that you want to do in your career with us?


Positivity (6/4/19)

Make sure that when we as leaders are dealing with issues that we are not venting towards or creating an air of negativity. It is our job, as leaders within the community to handle and address issues as they come up, doing our jobs should never impact our members and their experience.

HSI Stats (6/4/19)
Please make sure we are getting these done and back to your Directors in a timely manner. This is not a hard process to complete and we only ask for them once a month. This helps track your Divisions growth and History. We all need to work together to make sure our Divisions have accurate History for the future members of KSI to look upon.  

Discord COC Applys (6/11/19)

Please remember the the COC applies in your discord server. When chatting in there it is the same as being in a party. We don’t want to be breaking any part of the COC especially harassment of fellow KSI members. Remember if your having an argument take it into a private DM and please remember the officers are there to help resolve any issues that might come up.

Discord Uniformity (6/12/19):

We have been in the process of creating uniform Discord servers for every division for quite some time now. In the weeks to come some of these changes will be made towards achieving that goal. This includes but is not limited to:
Deletion of unnecessary roles
Permission changes
Deletion of chats and channels (Yes this includes the meme channel due to abuse on several accounts)

CLAN OPS NOTES:

 

Director Assignments:

Please give a Huge congrats to our newest Directors KSI xKing 77, KSI Skarzx 77, KSIfiremomma7

DW-KSI Gruntier 7

ES-KSI TexAngel 7

Professionalism:

Please remember that in this community, we highly value respect between members regardless of rank or stature. It is important that during normal conversation (and specifically when having an issue with a member or leader) that professional tones and languages are maintained. Leaders: Just because you have a rank doesn't mean you can talk to members however you please. Members: Although you do not have a rank to lose, you are a member of this community and thus will show respect to each other. Any violations of respect or unprofessionalism should be reported to the proper chain of command.  

 

Push For Community Involvement Universally:

To all members in the community, specifically the leaders: Get involved in departments and Div Cup. These are 2 crucial components to this community and it is the duty of every member and leader, to at least try to get involved with them and if not, push those around you to do so. Again, why not optimize your KSI Experience by trying everything that you can to see what it is that you want to do in your career with us?

Positivity:

Make sure that when we as leaders are dealing with issues that we are not venting towards or creating an air of negativity. It is our job, as leaders within the community to handle and address issues as they come up, doing our jobs should never impact our members and their experience.

 

Discord COC Apply's:

Please remember the the COC applies in your discord server. When chatting in there it is the same as being in a party. We don’t want to be breaking any part of the COC especially harassment of fellow KSI members. Remember if your having an argument take it into a private DM and please remember the officers are there to help resolve any issues that might come up.

Discord Uniformity:

 

We have been in the process of creating uniform Discord servers for every division for quite some time now. In the weeks to come some of these changes will be made towards achieving that goal. This includes but is not limited to:

Deletion of unnecessary roles

Permission changes

Deletion of chats and channels (Yes this includes the meme channel due to abuse on several accounts)

CLAN OPS NOTES:

 

Forums Down: (7/2/19)

Over the 4th of July weekend the forums will be down for maintenance. During this time period it is not expected to post roll call, game night attendance, ect… All regular activity will resume after maintenance. Please enjoy the holiday and we apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

 

Communication (7/2/19)

It is important to keep in constant and open communication with your fellow officers. The officer staff can and should be a cohesive unit working to solve any and all problems that might arise. It is crucial that you maintain open communication by posting in your perspective officer chats, private messages or by getting in party's together. You guys and gals are a team and should always be working together toward the greater good for your squad/division. To be patient with each other and work together toward a common goal of better Communication with everyone.

 

Chain Of Command: (7/2/19)

I know most of you Divisions have new or newly promoted Directors. Please understand they are there to help you and be apart of your team. If you do not allow your 7 staff to reach out to them for help then it can and will cause issues. Jumping over ranks is not healthy for a division either. If your issue in anyway could cause another issue because it could involve the rank above you then you can jump to the next rank. 

Also be patient with newly promoted officers of any and all ranks. As we all know you don’t always know everything about the rank till you are sitting in the rank. 

 

Cleaning Up Recruit/Squad Clubs & Tags: (7/2/19)

Please ensure that members promoted to PVT are being removed from your Recruit Club/Tag. When members are promoted to PVT, please ensure that they are being added to their squad club/tag at the time of the promotion or shortly after. This is to ensure that your tag is always up to date and accurate. This will also ensure that recruits are being promoted, and you are fluffing anyone overdue for promotion as they may no longer be interested in KSI. Generals and 7’s staff should work in unison to ensure that their clubs/tags are accurate and clean. 



Omega Sign Ins (7/2/19)

Please ensure that you and your staff are signing into the omega. There should be no reason why multiple 7's and generals are going offline for 4, 6 or even 7 days. Please remember that we do get notified when you are off for 4 days and when you hit 7 you will serve a rank suspension. 

 

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: (7/2/19)

KSI TexAngel 7 Leadership Development Class Sunday July 7, 2019 8pm EST. 

KSI Gruntier 7 Leadership Development Class Sunday July 7, 2019 8pm EST.  

KSI Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Class Monday July 22nd, 2019 7 p.m EST 

All sign-ups are on the forums under the Education tab. 

(Signs ups for Skarzx’s Class will open on July 15th and close on the July 21st)

 

OPEN DOOR POLICY: (7/2/19) 

The Open Door Policy is your way as a member or officer to go to a specific rank in your structure that doesn’t necessarily follow the appropriate chain of command. In this RARE instance, this takes place only because you feel that utilizing this would get you the best fix or solution for any issue you have. This is not to be abused or mistaken for skipping chain of command for every little issue you come across because it may be convenient for you at the time. In most scenarios you should utilize your chain of command properly and if you are unable to get a response or solution to the problem after 24 hours since the initial contact, you can then go to the rank above or to the rank you feel could help your situation.

DEPARTMENT OPS NOTES

HSI

Upper Leader Notes: 

Clan OPS Notes:

 

Officer Ratio: 

One of the biggest aspects of growing a squad is developing and teaching new officers that will grow through the ranks and be the next generation of leaders. Please ensure that you are actively searching for and teaching SGT that want to move up and be an officer within their respective squads. Due to recent changes to clan ops and the structure of squads , the member requirement is less which means trying to maintain the officer to member ratio during healthy growth is difficult. We as leaders need to strive to provide our officers and potential officers an avenue to discuss questions, ideas, concerns etc to help ensure they are not losing motivation and being burnt out. Game plan ideas with your directors, 7’s staff members as well as generals on ideas to help find the next generation of officers. 

 

Disagreements on Discord 

Please remember the the COC applies in your discord server. When chatting in there it is the same as being in a party. We don’t want to break the COC. This means Officers especially, you should be setting an example for others to follow. If you have a problem with something posted by another officer. Don’t argue about it in the chat. Follow the chain of command and to take care of the issue. Remember we praise in public and scold in private.

 

Private to CPL: 

Please ensure that you are keeping track of your private’s and their promotions. Ideally members who go past the 2 week mark of their CPL promotion eligibility should be sent a message directing them to either get a hold of an officer or they will be fluffed out of the squad. As squads continue to prepare and approach splits, it is ideal that you have NO overdue CPL promotions. 

 

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: 

KSI TexAngel 7 Leadership Development Week 4 Class Sunday July 28, 2019 8pm EST. 

KSI Gruntier 7 Leadership Development Week 4 Class Sunday July 28, 2019 8pm EST.  

KSI Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Week 2 Class Monday July 29th, 2019 7 p.m EST 

KSI Ronin 77 Leadership Development Week 1 Class TBD.

 

Upcoming Squad Splits: 

As we are approaching a lot of upcoming squad splits due to the recent changes to the squads/officer requirements we will be working on a format that will be used as a template for all further squad splits. This template will be used to ensure that all squads in the process of splitting do so under the notion that everything that is required and needing to be done is completed before actually splitting. 

 

Division Transfers:     

Although no Div Leader wants to lose members we as leaders can not deny a Div Transfer. Each member of KSI has the right to move divisions if the division is not working for them anymore. It is unhealthy to keep people in a division if they do not want to be there anymore. Also there should never be ANY stipulation on any transfer for any reason. Understand that your Dir can and should brief the other Div Leader and their Dir of the member they are taking. 

 

Change Is Good 

Change can be difficult at times but it is a necessary step in KSI’s progression. We know that sometimes changes happen and you might not always see completely the reasons for said change, if that is the case it is best to ask in a civilized way the reasons behind the changes instead of jumping to conclusions. As KSI moves forward with a progressive mindset it is important to keep an open mind when it comes to trying new things. 

 

Forums Sign In 

If your having problems Signing in on the forums you can have an officer message Riot on the forums or you can message him on Xbox KSI Riiot 7 and he will be more than happy to help you out.

 

Donors 

Please make certain to join the VIP section by applying for the donor award. In order to qualify for this you just have to have spent 10 dollars by either subscribing to twitch tier 1 for two months (free with amazon prime) or tier 2 or tier 3 sub. One can also qualify for the donor award by donating bitcoins on twitter or by donating directly on the forums you just need to include a photo with proof of your donation. We have a special 3 day donors only event coming up next month where only those in the VIP section can participate. This is KSI’s way to thank all of you donors for helping out our community. 

 

Be respectful 

Please remember that all of us come from different walks of life. Please treat everyone with dignity and respect that you would like to be shown. Also you should know your audience and if someone doesn't like where the conversation is going or if you step over the line you can apologize and move on to a different subject. Remember we are all here to game and have fun with like minded individuals.

 

Members and Officers on LOA 

Just a reminder any member or officer that is on an LOA are not allowed to do anything related to KSI. This includes Omegas, Gamenights, meetings, and/or events. If their Omega is suspended during their LOA get with your Div Leader and they will get the Dir to unsuspend it. 

 

Pride 

It is good to have pride in your squad/Division but having too much pride can be as bad as having little or no pride. It is good to get in the spirit of hyping yourselves up but not at the expense of your fellow KSI members we all get in a bit of a funk squad or division wise but with hard work and dedication it is only temporary. We should show our support and solidarity as a community

Also went over the squad will still eventually split. Mentioned keeping squad moral up and continuing to have fun and grow as a squad. ( I believe is happening at a great rate)... Went over us having SSGT position opening.

Clan Ops 

Maintaining the Omega (Generals) (7/30/19)

Please make sure squad members game-types are set to the correct game-type to the squad they are in. It is also essential that we are ensuring that Privates are being trained and moved up in a timely manner. Once a Private reaches the 2 week period, you need to be asking yourself, "Is this person fluff?". It is also just as important we are ensuring all Corporals are active in some capacity and not just fluff.

Part of maintaining your Omega is making sure it matches your squad tag. Keeping on top of the Omega and the squad is part of your job as GENs and its part of the 7 staff to make sure you are maintaining them properly. It is a good habit when you add or remove anyone from one remove or add them from the other right then. 

 

 

Donors Event: (7/30/19)

Is set for August 16-18, 2019 some games may change, but at this point this is the schedule as it stands for the event. Remind your members that you HAVE TO be a Donor and MUST HAVE the Donor Award on the forums. You still have time to make a donation and get your award. 

Donor’s Event Schedule 2019

Day 3: Doritos Crash Course/Black Ops 4

 

Doritos Crash Course-4:00 PM Est

 

Black Ops 4 Free For All-7:00 PM Est


Utilizing the Forums: (8/6/19)

It's important that we are making sure we are being active on the Forums and pushing all members to also be active. The earlier people are introduced to the Forums the better. It gives people a chance to get familiarised with the layout and general navigation on the forums as it can be daunting at first. Then when they become an officer they will already know the basics.


Member Retention (8/6/19)

Every rank from RCT all the way up is important! Too often do we see CPLs and PVTs getting lost within the daily doings of the community. As leaders and members of the community it is our job to ensure all members are being included in all activities within the squad and division. If there is a member you haven't spoken too or seen in the a squad meeting for a while, reach out to them, see what's happening. Ask them what kind of games and activities they want to see in the squad.


Disagreements on Discord (7/23/19)

Please remember the the COC applies in your discord server. When chatting in there it is the same as being in a party. We don’t want to break the COC. This means Officers especially, you should be setting an example for others to follow. If you have a problem with something posted by another officer. Don’t argue about it in the chat. Follow the chain of command and to take care of the issue. Remember we praise in public and scold in private.

Squad Tag Messages: (7/30/19)

For a long time our Squad Tag messages that needed to be sent out weekly has been 3. After a lot of discussion we have made the decision to lower the message requirement to 2 messages a week. Try to make the 2 messages one a positive message and the other something related to the squad. For example a game night, the squad meeting, or a workshop.  


Observe and Report (7/30/19)

Open and honest communication is important when we see something that is wrong. Sometimes people make mistakes that they don't know or think they are making but we as officers or members can help point it out to them or those above them. That way they can be corrected before it continues on for too long and becomes a problem.


Know Your Limits (8/6/19)

It is important that when dealing with KSI issues that might come up not to take on more than you can handle. Even though you might think that you have things handled, it is easy to bite off more than you can chew or burn yourself out. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, it's not a sign of weakness it’s knowing your limits. We are all here to help each other out.

Clan Ops Notes: 

Cleaning Up Recruit/Squad Clubs & Tags: 

Please ensure that members promoted to PVT are being removed from your Recruit Club/Tag. When members are promoted to PVT, please ensure that they are being added to their squad club/tag at the time of the promotion or shortly after. This is to ensure that your tag is always up to date and accurate. This will also ensure that recruits are being promoted, and you are fluffing anyone overdue for promotion as they may no longer be interested in KSI. Generals and 7’s staff should work in unison to ensure that their clubs/tags are accurate and clean. 


 

Professionalism: 

Please remember that in this community, we highly value respect between members regardless of rank or stature. It is important that during normal conversation (and specifically when having an issue with a member or leader) that professional tones and languages are maintained. Leaders: Just because you have a rank doesn't mean you can talk to members however you please. Members: Although you do not have a rank to lose, you are a member of this community and thus will show respect to each other. Any violations of respect or unprofessionalism should be reported to the proper chain of command.  


Member Retention 

Every rank from RCT all the way up are important! Too often do we see CPLS and PVTS getting lost within the daily doings of the community. As leaders and members of the community it is our job to ensure all members are being included in all activities within the squad and division. If there is a member you think you haven't spoken too for a while, reach out to them, see what's happening.

Poaching

Please remember that poaching other people doesn’t just apply to other communities it also applies to your fellow KSI members. Sometimes we might hear our fellow members from another squad or DIV complaining about being unhappy. When this happens we can offer the advice of talking to their General. A lot of times the General doesn’t know that your not happy and given the chance they might be able to help improve your KSI experience. It’s not 

Training Officers/Potential Officers - 

Please make sure when training SGT and/or training SSGT - CPT , that you are covering every aspect of what is expected of an officer. Utilize all the educational materials at your disposal such as Recruiting workshops, CEP workshops etc. This will allow you to ensure that the next generation of officers are being prepped and trained properly and that will create the foundation that you squad and division can use to build upon for long term success. (Workshops can be found in the “Performance Operations and CDC” section on the main page of the forums; use the sub-section to find the CEP workshops or contact your PO rep)

 

Back to School Time -

Just a reminder school is starting all across the country so with that in mind please be understanding of our school age members. Make sure they understand that communication is the biggest tool. Let them know that they need to inform their officers of their sport schedules and any other schedules anyone has. 

 

Trust and Truth -

Part of being a member of KSI is having Integrity. A large Part in having a successful squad is always telling the truth and trusting that those officers above you can help out. We know that trust has to be earned (as it should be) but it is important to remember that those above you have been through said situation or know someone that can help. Withholding information hoping that it gets better or that I can quietly fix it later before someone notices is not healthy. Officers are here to help and can only help if they know what’s going on.

Communication -

It is important to keep in constant and open communication with your fellow officers. The officer staff can and should be a cohesive unit working to solve any and all problems that might arise. It is crucial that you maintain open communication by posting in your perspective officer chats, private messages or by getting in party's together. You guys and gals are a team and should always be working together toward the greater good for your squad/division. To be patient with each other and work together toward a common goal of better Communication with everyone.

Notes from upper leaders:

Clan OPS Notes:

Support Each Other 

As an officer it’s important to show support for your fellow officers. If a fellow officer is hosting a game night and your online either by yourself or with fellow squad mates you can and should join the game night and bring the others with you. We all know what it’s like to have no one show up to a game night but we can support each other, we’re all in this together.

To be patient with each other and work together toward a common goal of better Communication with everyone.

KSL Tags 

All officers please remember to create KSL tags of yourself.  That way other hostile gaming community's can't trick unsuspecting members into joining their party's. Creating a KSL account only takes a few minutes and if you need any help creating one feel free to ask your Gen or one of your 7's. They will be more than happy to help.

Stay Safe 

Please remember to be safe and check party invites. It's a really good idea to check the profile of people especially if it's someone you don't know or somebody that doesn't usually invites you to party's. A few things to look at that are dead giveaways would be a 0 gamerscore, also look at the number of people following them. 

If it turns out to be a fake account just block them and move on once they are blocked they can no longer send you party invites or messages and you can safely go back to playing games and having fun.

KSI TexAngel 7 and KSI Gruntier 7 will both start a new round of classes the first of September.

 

Positive Morale:

 

Please make sure that we are always providing a positive environment for all our members. Sometimes there is a big focus on members who have a desire to be an officer or is in the process of becoming an officer and not to say we ignore the rest but we should ensure they are getting just as much attention. Giving shout outs to your members during squad meetings, encouraging SGT to host their own game nights;Ultimately just spending time specifically at some point during the week with your CPL and your PVT not just your SGT or higher. 

 

Training Officers/Potential Officers:

 

Please make sure when training SGT and/or training SSGT - CPT , that you are covering every aspect of what is expected of an officer. Utilize all the educational materials at your disposal such as Recruiting workshops, CEP workshops etc. This will allow you to ensure that the next generation of officers are being prepped and trained properly and that will create the foundation that you squad and division can use to build upon for long term success.

Creating a KSL account only takes a few minutes and if you need any help creating one feel free to ask your Gen or one of your 7's. They will be more than happy to help.

Be Happy:

 

Please remember to have fun and be happy with what your doing with KSI. Whether your being an officer or a member remember that it is your KSI experience and it's important to remember to balance ones responsibility that we take on and to remember to have fun and be happy with our time in KSI. If we are all work and no play then it can be easy to forget the reason why we joined KSI in the first place. Always try to take some time for yourselves and find a balance between work and play. 

 

Yearly Events:

 

Just a reminder we have 2 more major events this year. With that said let's start talking to our members and getting a line on players. We all know Halo is a game that is and will be played at every event. Remember this is a VOLUNTARY community and we as leaders can not and will not force our members to participate in these or any events.

Posting Sign Ups on the Fourms:

When posting a sign ups on the forums for ANY event in KSI, please remember you can edit them until the cut-off. So with that being said DO NOT message a member of T&E or a Sr Leader to delete your post. Simply go back to your post and slap the edit button and make your changes. FYI you can edit any post you make on the forums. 

KSI Survey:

Send your members and officers to the forums and participate in the KSI Survey. This is a survey to put your thoughts out to the community and leaders. Be honest with your answers and give information that could and will help KSI to the future. 

Reching Out:

Sometimes when being an officer within the community situations can come up that you may not have the knowledge or abilities to handle. There is no shame in reaching out to someone to ask a question or get some advice. There are many people within the community with a plethora of knowledge and advice they can share with you! Don't be afraid to reach out.

Positive Moral:

Please make sure that we are always providing a positive environment for all our members. Sometimes there is a big focus on members who have a desire to be an officer or is in the process of becoming an officer and not to say we ignore the rest but we should ensure they are getting just as much attention. Giving shout outs to your members during squad meetings, encouraging SGT to host their own game nights;Ultimately just spending time specifically at some point during the week with your CPL and your PVT not just your SGT or higher. 

Communication:

It is important to keep in constant and open communication with your fellow officers. The officer staff can and should be a cohesive unit working to solve any and all problems that might arise. It is crucial that you maintain open communication by posting in your perspective officer chats, private messages or by getting in party's together. You guys and gals are a team and should always be working together toward the greater good for your squad/division. To be patient with each other and work together toward a common goal of better Communication with everyone.

Be Happy:

Please remember to have fun and be happy with what your doing with KSI. Whether your being an officer or a member remember that it is your KSI experience and it's important to remember to balance ones responsibility that we take on and to remember to have fun and be happy with our time in KSI. If we are all work and no play then it can be easy to forget the reason why we joined KSI in the first place. Always try to take some time for yourselves and find a balance between work and play. 

Yearly Events:

Just a reminder we have 2 more major events this year. With that said let's start talking to our members and getting a line on players. We all know Halo is a game that is and will be played at every event. Remember this is a VOLUNTARY community and we as leaders can not and will not force our members to participate in these or any events. 

Get Involved:

Did you know that you can get Division points for chatting in your respective Divisional chat. It's an easy way to earn points and have some fun with your fellow KSI members. While your there you can do some exploring you never know what you might find. There's a lot of good info on the forums and if your having problems navigating the forums there’s a new forums workshop with a new award if your interested ask your officers about it.

Nominating Officers for Outstanding Service Lvl 1: 

Outstanding Service Members Lvl 1 is an award that can be received by an officer in the ranks of SSGT to GEN. Most all of the Divisions 7 staff have their OSL1 but forget that they are not the only ones that can be or should be nominated for this award. We all know that there are several members in every division that should be nominated. So with that said I encourage you to nominate your Outstanding members.

 

2019 Divisional Cup

KSI should be a fun place for gamers to enjoy, not a stressful monotony of different requirements to fulfill. We heard your voices in the recent and ongoing Community Survey and we’ve heard your voices in parties. As of Sunday, September 15, 2019, the KSI Board of Directors agreed on a revamp of the Divisional Cup and additional areas. Please read about these changes here: https://www.ksiglobal.org/div-cup-changes/. This is the first step to reshaping KSI into a better image from the feedback you’ve provided us.

 

Department Notes

Please congratulate KSI December 77 on his promotion to Chief Department Manager.

We’d also like to congratulate KSI Scotland 7 on his many years of service and his extensive contributions to KSI Global. Originally recruited in the Fall of 2013, Scotland has been deeply involved in both Clan and Department Operations over the course of his KSI career. It is with a bittersweet heart that we wish him the very best as he starts his well-earned retirement from the KSI Board of Directors.

Divisional & Squad Leadership - Please remember that although every decision may not be one open for discussion/debate, It is important to be as transparent as possible with the leaders and members beneath you. When making decisions about what direction a squad/division heads in or any promotions/demotions that may be received, It is important to keep those under you informed as to why these things are happening and why certain decisions are made. The ultimate way to reach a feeling of inclusion and family is for people to have their thoughts and feelings are taken into consideration.

Fall Classic Winners 

Division Leaders those that won 1-3 place for your divisions. On the ops server under claim prizes there will be new channels created in the next couple days to claim your winnings. 

 

Fall classic over 

With another fun and exciting fall classic behind us it's time to get back to business as usual by getting back in our usual routines and having fun playing games, recruiting, promotions etc…

 

Encouragement: 

Remember we as leaders are looked up to by our members and officers, so taking 5 min to give a member or officer a good job goes a long way. Asking and not demanding is such a better way to get your Div moving in the right direction. An officer telling a RCTing member that they did a great job on there last RCT can lead to more positive growth. Kindness and communication is a great tool for our members and each other.

Teamwork is key to success. Everyone should be working together with their staff and making sure that the day to day operations are being fulfilled. If someone or multiple people are struggling, reach out and see what you can do to help. WE ARE A TEAM we're not just here to kick back and let everyone else do all the work while we watch and play games.

Please remember to do security checks on your members at least once a month. As people come into the community or leave the community sometimes you see some individuals on your members friends list that need to be removed (referring to blacklist or security risked members). This will help keep your division secure and safe.

When your officers come to you with issues please be understanding and work with them to fix the issue. We have to make sure we are on the same page as we teach our newer officers do these checks.

Communication 

It is important to keep in constant and open communication with your fellow officers. The officer staff can and should be a cohesive unit working to solve any and all problems that might arise. It is crucial that you maintain open communication by posting in your perspective officer chats, private messages or by getting in party's together. You guys and gals are a team and should always be working together toward the greater good for your squad/division. To be patient with each other and work together toward a common goal of better Communication with everyone.

Teamwork 

Teamwork is key to success. Everyone should be working together with their staff and making sure that the day to day operations are being fulfilled. If someone or multiple people are struggling, reach out and see what you can do to help. WE ARE A TEAM we're not just here to kick back and let everyone else do all the work while we watch and play games. 

Transparency 

Divisional & Squad Leadership - Please remember that although every decision may not be one open for discussion/debate, It is important to be as transparent as possible with the leaders and members beneath you. When making decisions about what direction a squad/division heads in or any promotions/demotions that may be received, It is important to keep those under you informed as to why these things are happening and why certain decisions are made. The ultimate way to reach a feeling of inclusion and family is for people to have their thoughts and feelings are taken into consideration.

Blacklisted/Security Risked Communities

Please remember that members and communities designated as Blacklisted (or Security Risked) are on a strict no contact policy. This means you are not to message them on any platform, join their parties and have discussions, etc. These individuals are designated as blacklisted for a specific reason; mainly it is to ensure the safety and security of all our members and the community as a whole. If a member of these communities reaches out to you , you are to screenshot the message , block the individual and report it to your Divisional 7’s staff. Please remember to always check who is inviting you before joining a party; Check Gamerscore, Following/Followers, if they are in your squad clubs, etc. Be Safe!


Blacklisted/Security Risked Communities are as followed:

           TSB, VoS, BEG, GRM, J2H, MEA and XDG

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: 

KSI Gruntier 7 week 4 class will be held on Oct 27th at 8pm EST. There are currently spots left open.

This will be the last Leadership Development Class of 2019. After the first of the year we will start the classes again.

 

New Log Channel (Gens and up) 

You might have noticed a new useful channel in Discord server. It is an audit log of all deleted/edited messages. This channel Will help the Gens and 7's staff maintain and monitor what happens in their prospective server. If something was said in a channel but you were busy or at work this channel let's you know exactly what was said so that appropriate action can be taken to ensure a better KSI experience for all the members. 

Posting of screen shots and other info that needs to be filed for the division can be posted in this channel as well. I think it will be easier to look back on them and find them. Also GENs and up are the only ones with access.
 

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.


 

Member Retention 

Every rank from RCT all the way up is important! Too often do we see CPLs and PVTs getting lost within the daily doings of the community. As leaders and members of the community it is our job to ensure all members are being included in all activities within the squad and division. If there is a member you haven't spoken too or seen in a squad meeting for a while, reach out to them, see what's happening. Ask them what kind of games and activities they want to see in the squad.

    Turkey Bowl & Holidays (10/29/19) - 

    This year has been a long one for most of us but we have roughly 2 more months left to finish strong. Keep in mind we have Turkey Bowl coming up in late November (11/29/19) so be sure to spread the word and get your members signed up! Also with the holiday season coming in full swing, let’s make sure we are gaming and having fun with each other and head into 2020 with high morale and excitement for a new year of GAMING!!!!

    For more Turkey Bowl 2019 information check out the Link on the Main Page of the Forums under the Divisional Cup & Events section or via the Link to Turkey Bowl Announcement & Schedule - https://www.ksiforums.org/topic/47146-turkey-bowl-2019-announcement-schedule/

     

    Support Each Other (10/29/19)

    As a member  it’s important to show support for your fellow officers. If a fellow officer is hosting a game night / meeting  and your online either by yourself or with fellow squad mates you can and should join the game night / meeting and bring others with you. We all know what it’s like to have no one show up to a game night / meeting but we can support each other, we’re all in this together

     

    Be respectful (10/29/19)

    Please remember that all of us come from different walks of life. Please treat everyone with dignity and respect that you would like to be shown. Also you should know your audience and if someone doesn't like where the conversation is going or if you step over the line you can apologize and move on to a different subject. Remember we are all here to game and have fun with like minded individuals.

     

    .Join/Rejoin Applicants: (10/22/19)

    Please remember when you send members to join/rejoin area to post an application , the following things are completed:

    • Member must create a forum account. If they already have a forums account they must use that to post application. IN THE EVENT, they forgot the password/email for the account then contact your divisional 7’s staff to help get in touch with a forum mod. (DO NOT TELL THEM TO CREATE A WHOLE NEW ACCOUNT)
    • The application is completed accurately and correctly (DOUBLE CHECK)
    • Make sure the member is keeping an eye on the application in case of any questions that need to be answered. 
    • Lastly, NO ONE besides the applicant, the join moderator and 7’s staff members should be posting on any join/rejoin applications. 


    Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: (10/29/19)

    KSI Gruntier 7 week 5 class will be held on Nov 3rd at 8pm EST. There are currently 8 spots left open.

    This will be the last Leadership Development Class of 2019. After the first of the year we will start the classes again. 


     

    Relationships (Officers and up) (10/29/19)

    There is nothing wrong with dating a fellow KSI member we can't help who we fall for. It is important that if officers enter into a relationship with a member or fellow officer no matter the squad both are in. It is always a good idea to let your Gen or 7's staff know about said relationship. You don't have to go into details just have to say "hey im dating so and so" that way if there is any drama that might affect the squad or division , then the GEN or 7's staff can get ahead of the situation.

     

    Mentoring: (T10/29/19)

    Please remember to mentor our officers correctly and effectively. These future leaders depend on us to help them and guide them to be successful in the future for KSI. The biggest part of being a leader in this community is to be approachable and humble but also being the leader they and your members need.

Reporting Issues: 

Members and officers encountering issues that need to go up the chain of command need to be sure they are going up. Having an issue in the ranks of your division and not reporting it to the leadership can and will become very toxic. Withholding issues because “I did not want to say anything” is a problem and needs to be corrected immediately. We don't want it to wait and fester. Instead we want to get ahead of any issues and correct any issues before they become big issues resulting in rank suspension or removal from KSI. Waiting until an issue gets to where squads and divisions are losing members and officers is not healthy. 

Turkey Bowl & Holidays

We want you! 

Are you interested in becoming an officer? Squads are always looking for more people to help out and give back to this wonderful community. If you have some extra time on your hands becoming an officer is fairly simple. You can host game nights, promote people up maybe even help recruit someone and show them the KSI love. If your interested you can ask one of your officers or your GEN about it. They are always looking for more people to help out and they would certainly appreciate the help. The more helpers the lighter the workload.

Clan ops Notes 

 

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

 

 

Squad Tag Security

 

  • Please remember when we are recruiting new members that they DO NOT add the squad tags during the recruiting process. This could create a security issue for the squad and its members. The recruit clubs/tags are used to weed out and are a second line of defence to keep those who would try to get into KSI and create issues for the squads. The Squad tags are not to be added until they are promoted to PVT during the training portion. 

  

 

Reporting Issues

 

  • Members and officers encountering issues that need to go up the chain of command need to be sure they are going up. Having an issue in the ranks of your division and not reporting it to the leadership can and will become very toxic. Withholding issues because “I did not want to say anything” is a problem and needs to be corrected immediately. We don't want it to wait and fester. Instead we want to get ahead of any issues and correct any issues before they become big issues resulting in rank suspension or removal from KSI.

Ask them what kind of games and activities they want to see in the squad or how things can be improved to make things better for them.

Dirty laundry

 

  • When airing one's dirty laundry or a beef with someone don't post it in the casual chat on discord. Be an adult and discuss it with either the person you might have a problem with or bring it up to an officer. The casual chat is there for people to chat and have fun. There is no need to bring negativity into the chat that just ruins everyone's day.

 

 

Treating Your Officers Right

 

  • One of the biggest things we have as leaders is the ability to treat others with respect and communication. Treating your officers like team members and working together will be more productive for the squad and division. If your team can succeed together and fail together it builds a bigger and better team. Keeping all lines of communication open with each other good or bad helps that team build strength and divisions.

Treating your officers like team members and working together will be more productive for the squad and division. If your team can succeed together and fail together it builds a bigger and better team. Keeping all lines of communication open with each other good or bad helps that team build strength and divisions.

Proper Use of Chain of Command : 

The Open Door Policy allows members to speak with leader's on any issues or ideas. However, if the topic of conversation is related to a squad issue or altercation then it needs to be handled by the appropriate leader (according to the chain of command) . Officers in the staff should be initially notified. If the issue cannot be handled by them then that squads General needs to be contacted. Then it follows to the Co-Founder, Founder (If Applicable), to the Divisional Leader. The first point of contact will need the time and opportunity to handle the issue so until that occurs do not continue to skip rank. 

 

Work continues (officers on up)

We are nearing the end of the year again and things naturally start to slow down a bit. It is important to remember that there is still work to be done in order to help maintain our squads. It is really easy to start getting a little too relaxed and forget the little things like posting role call and doing promotions. So please as always have fun and continue helping out when and where you can we are all in this wonderful community together.

 

Change Is Good 

Change can be difficult at times but it is a necessary step in KSI’s progression. We know that sometimes changes happen and you might not always see completely the reasons for said change, if that is the case it is best to ask in a civilized way the reasons behind the changes instead of jumping to conclusions. As KSI moves forward with a progressive mindset it is important to keep an open mind when it comes to trying new things. 

 

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups:

This will be the last Leadership Development Class of 2019. After the first of the year we will start the classes again.

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups:

 New class signup' s will start next month (Jan 2020).

Let Them Learn:

Sometimes we tend to cut corners and just go to someone higher up that you know has the answers or might feel more comfortable talking to, but in doing so it inhibits the person that if following the proper chain of command to learn and grow from experiences. That is the way that people learn how to handle situations if they don't know the answer they will find out and that is how people learn, that's how the people above them learned and know all that they know.

 

Bye Bye Numbers:

We  continue to grow and mature as a community and strive to improve ourselves. One of those areas is to get rid of old antiquated ideas doing it because that's how it's always been done. As of now there will no longer be a number cast system for LT's or CPT's the only 2 ranks in KSI that has had them. The numbers don't matter a LT is an LT but sometimes people get the idea that a 1st LT  is better than a 3rd LT but that isn't true. 

This system will make things a lot easier for Gens when it comes time to promote someone up because it doesn't matter the amount of time someone is at said rank or their number it only matters who is doing the most work as it should be. 

There will still be max one GEN, 3 CPT's, 3 LT's, and of course 3 SSGT's per each squad. In short, we hope that this will promote the ideal that the LTs and the Cpts are all equals and teammates without anything that could cause a divide among them.

Leaders Members and Department Members (T/S12/17/19)

 

 

Please understand that KSI is a gaming community and not a dating service. Not everyone is on xbox looking for a soulmate. It is widely inappropriate to ask personal questions such as relationship status, personal information etc. These questions can create unwarranted problems and potential harassment claims which can/will result in disciplinary actions. Be respectful!
