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

Performance Operations Weekly Advice "POWA"

 

Micromanaging seems like a good idea at times but it actually proves to be detrimental in the long run. It’s very easy to assume control but if we do, it prohibits officers and members from learning from their mistakes. When we advise members in the decision making progress, it allows them to grow as leaders within the community. Remember to not take control when they make a mistake and do not abandon them but rather help them pick up the pieces again.


Squad notes:

Please go and congratulate if you haven’t done so already to KSI ToXin 7 aka KSI Sinikon on he’s Promotion to Co founder.

KSI Itachii, Templar’s new gen would like to thank everyone in Templar for being so welcoming in the last 2 months and making this my new home and I can’t wait to do amazing things with this squad and improve it every day and is looking forward to hanging out and gaming with you guys if he hasn’t done so already as he is sure he hasn’t met everyone yet. Feel free to hit him up on Xbox or discord at any time my door is always open to all of you for anything you guys need.

We would like to see more of our members active in our discord, if you are not in our discord then please contact an officer or KSI Itachii and we will get you in. Discord is a great way for communicating with more members in our division, look for more members to game with, have jokes with other members, post gifs and make new friends because that’s what KSI Is really all about but obviously still know you’re limits and the C.O.C. still applies in the discord.

With now the split officially done and the squad is starting to grow again, positions for new officers are now open! If you are interested in being an officer and moving up in the KSI ranks then please contact any officer or KSI Itachii and we will train and guide you the best we can. Being an officer can be daunting and quite tough at times but can honestly be so rewarding so we definitely recommend giving it a shot if you’re interested

If any of you would like to host a game night please contact KSI THEZOHAN or myself, schedules for game nights and workshops are posted in the Templar announcements on the discord

With our squad being mainly based around COD and a few R6 siege. We would see all of members in the squad receiving attention and not feeling left out. Head to the Templar club and add members you haven’t met before. This is a great way to a boost retention in the squad and lower fluff.

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.

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.

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.

Squad notes: 
The squad is doing great. I would like to thank all the members again for being part of this great squad, without you guys this squad won’t be successful. Gaming with all you’re members and hanging it in parties with them is really what makes a squad strong and successful. 
I personally thank you once again for having me as you’re new gen and making me feel settled in my new role, I’m loving seeing this squad grow and get stronger every day so thank you!

If any of you are still interested in becoming an officer in the squad and maybe one day have the chance to run you’re own squad then please hit up KSI Itachii or KSI THEZOHAN and we will get with you and work with you the best we can.

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.

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. 

As an alternative posting you can post and pin in the squad clubs.

KSI Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Week 5 Class Monday Aug 19, 2019 7 p.m EST 

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

 

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 Division 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 the member isn't happy and given the chance they might be able to help improve their KSI experience. It can be considered poaching if we encourage them to come to our squad "we'll gladly take you" or "you will always have a home here". We wouldn't want someone poaching our friends from our squad. Lets extend that courtesy to our fellow squads/Divisions.

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 1:
 
Brawlhalla  (8/16/19) 
 
Brawlhalla Free For All- 7:00 PM Est
 
 
Day 2: Uno/Halo 5 (8/17/19) 
 
Uno: Online (via unofreak.com)- 4:00 PM Est

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.
 
Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: 
KSI Gruntier 7 Leadership Development Week 6 Class Sunday Aug 11, 2019 8pm EST
KSI Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Week 4 Class Monday Aug 12, 2019 7 p.m EST 
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.

Squad notes: 
The squad is doing great. I would like to thank all the members again for being part of this great squad, without you guys this squad won’t be successful. Gaming with all you’re members and hanging it in parties with them is really what makes a squad strong and successful. 
I personally thank you once again for having me as you’re new gen and making me feel settled in my new role, I’m loving seeing this squad grow and get stronger every day so thank you!

If any of you are still interested in becoming an officer in the squad and maybe one day have the chance to run you’re own squad then please hit up KSI Itachii or KSI THEZOHAN and we will get with you and work with you the best we can.

We strongly advise that you do not join any party invites for people you don’t know, if you unsure that you know someone who is ending you a party invite please contact any officer

We are trying to get more members active in the discord as that is one of our main source of information and a great way to meet new members in the division. It’s where you will see the squad weekly schedule for game nights and workshops in the announcements, our squad and divisional (casual) chat and also community updates and upcoming weekend warfares which all members can take part in.

And lastly squad meetings will now be held on a Saturday at 8pm est so that way one week KSI THEZOHAN will host and the other KSI Itachii will host. And also as most members are on at the weekend it will help get more members involved with what’s going on in the community/division and the squad.

Division Leaders Meeting Notes Sept 3, 2019


 

Clan OPS Notes:

 

Leadership Development Class Sign-Ups: 

 

KSI Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Week 1 Class starts on 9/9/19 at 7 p.m est. Signs up will be opened Thursday (9/5/19) at 5 p.m est. 

 

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. (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)

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.

Divisional Goals 

Divisional leadership, your goals for the month are still being monitored and checked on in terms of steps taken and movement towards the goal. When the new month timeline roles around, new goals are to be posted and updated on every week. Please stay on top of this for the benefit of your division and maintaining accountability.

 

Posting Sign Ups On The Forums: 

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. 

 

Reaching 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.

 

Get Involved 

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.

 

Event Channels 

Event channels for every Divisions Discord will be up and running within the next 48 hours.

 

Fluff: 

As our Divisions Leaders it our responsibility to make sure our squads are actively fluffing. Send out a message and give them a few days to respond. If no response after 3 day then send another message stating they only have x amount of hours till they are fluff. This process should take 7 days from the first message to the last fluff message.


 

Did You Know?  (officers only)

Did you know that a 1st LT and a 3rd LT are both the same rank. They are both LT's the numbers don’t matter, same thing with Captain's numbers we're all in this together to help. You are all officers volunteering your time to help KSI and it’s members further up in rank one goes just means they have more responsibility and can help out more. 

 

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.


 

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.

 

AAP Department Notes

AAP Department Staff Applications will be open until September 20th, please apply in the Join a Department section of the forums if interested.

Divisional Leadership, AAP Divisional Of the Months will run until September 27th. Please make sure to participate and get your members recognized for their outstanding contributions to your respective division.

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.

Division Leaser Meeting Notes

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 Skarzx 77 Leadership Development Week 6  Class starts on 10/14/19 at 7 p.m est. 

KSI Gruntier 7 week 3 class will be held on Oct 13th at 8pm EST. There are currently 3 spots left open.

 

Omega Sign Ins 

Please make sure 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.

 

NEW GAMES OCTOBER & Be Careful: 

This month we will be enjoying 2 new games being released on Xbox, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare & Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: BreakPoint. Recruiting tends to be very active especially with the new Call of Duty dropping. As always, make sure we are looking for active individuals with good personalities and be aware of any potential blacklist or security risk individuals trying to sneak into KSI. WE ARE INVITE ONLY community, if you are reached out to about getting recruited; direct that individual to join/rejoin section on the forums. 

 

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.
 

Join Area 

Please make sure your members, officers, and generals know that the join area is for 7's usage only. There should be no reason why anyone besides the 7 staff of that respective division is posting. 

 

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.

Division Leader Meeting Notes

Security Checks  

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.

 

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.

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 3 class will be held on Oct 20th at 8pm EST. There are currently spots left open.

 

Omega Sign Ins 

Please make sure 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.

 

NEW GAMES OCTOBER & Be Careful: 

This month we will be enjoying 2 new games being released on Xbox, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare & Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: BreakPoint. Recruiting tends to be very active especially with the new Call of Duty dropping. As always, make sure we are looking for active individuals with good personalities and be aware of any potential blacklist or security risk individuals trying to sneak into KSI. WE ARE INVITE ONLY community, if you are reached out to about getting recruited; direct that individual to join/rejoin section on the forums.

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.

Join Area

Please make sure your members, officers, and generals know that the join area is for 7's usage only. There should be no reason why anyone besides the 7 staff of that respective division is posting. 

 

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.

Clan Ops Notes

Join/Rejoin Applicants: 

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. 

Security Checks : 

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.

Good evening squad, I want to say that me and the rest of the officers appreciate you being apart of this amazing squad and community. 

I know it's been a bit of a slow week with activity and I understand that with the new call of duty dropping, and the holidays around the corner activity might drop off a little just remember to try and keep your officers in the loop or put in a loa. To prevent the possibility of being fluffed. 

Just a friendly reminder that we are still interviewing members interested in becoming officers. if you have any questions about what being an officer is all about please message any officer for more information. 

If you have any ideas, questions, or concerns. Please feel free to message any officer, we are here to help make this a fun experience for everyone involved. 

Just a reminder to all of you to keep an eye for security/blacklisted communities, we want everyone of our members to have fun and be safe while gaming.

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!!!!

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.

Squad Notes:

Good evening squad, I want to say that me and the rest of the officers appreciate you being apart of this amazing squad and community. We had good week of recruiting and had quite a few transfers come in so make sure to check out the templar club and discord to find some new friends to game out with. Turkey bowl is coming up late November. Holidays are coming up so if you need to spend time with your family get with an officer about putting a leave of absence in, so you can have fun and not worry about possible fluff from squad for inactivity. Be on the lookout for blacklisted and security risked communities sending out invites. We want everyone to stay safe and have fun gaming this holiday season. So when in doubt check discord to see if they are on there, or ask an officer can never be to safe. We are still interviewing and looking for potential officers. For more information reach out to one of your officers. And to close off tonight's meeting. I would like say congratulations on helping our squad grow by over 12 members this past week. And Please congratulate KSI KillerGOD on his promotion to 3CPT, KSI LeviMOFB on his promotion to 2CPT, KSI SLAPPING 69/ KSI demon 666 on his promotion to 2LT, and welcome our new 1LT KSI Gh0st66.

Division Leaders Meeting Notes Nov 6, 2019

 

Clan OPS Notes:

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.

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 or how things can be improved to make things better for them.

Notes from squad level:

Good evening squad, I want to say that me and the rest of the officers appreciate you being apart of this amazing squad and community. We had another great week of recruiting we have grown by another 10 members. Please keep up the amazing work. I want everyone to remember that we have the open door policy if you have questions comments or concerns, please get in touch with an officer to express them. Our main goal is to have fun, so don't be afraid to speak to an officer if you see anything we can improve or help you or a friend solve. The turkey bowl is coming up I'd love for us to show everyone how strong we are in our division and KSI as a whole. We will have tourneys for bragging rights and first place prize includes a $10 MSP card on 11/29-12/1/19 events include: brawlhalla 2v2 brawlball

For any questions about signing up ask an officer and we will help you get signed up.
With the holidays approaching we understand everyone might be offline to spend with family and friends or get them overtime hours, just remember to communicate with your officer core ahead of time so we won't fluff u for inactivity. Just a reminder that nobody gets left behind. this is a family and we are here to support each other. Remember code of conduct applies in party chats, and discord as well. We are always looking to train possible officers, so if you would like to help our squad and community grow get with an officer for more info.

Leaders 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.

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.

Respect 

When in party's and on discord/forums please remember to respect your fellow KSI members boundaries. It is always fun to joke around with each other but sometimes we can cross that line unintentionally and we never would want to do it intentionally. It is good to know our audience and not get so rambunctious or lude discussions that we start making people uncomfortable. They might be afraid to say anything and we want to keep it somewhat family-friendly and COC appropriate.

Notes from squad level:

Good evening squad, I want to thank everyone of you for being apart of this clan and community. A slow week understandably with Thanksgiving on this coming Thursday. I'd like to stress our open door policy, and keeping in touch with your officers about potential extended time away to spend with family or other personal responsibilities. We get every one has a life outside of gaming. We want to be their if you need anything, which is why I stress this so much. Because I've been where u are now, I'm constantly fighting my depression. It took me a minute to warm up to the idea, but wht got me sold was no more randoms on blackout because just wow. And I remember everyday I hopped on my Xbox someone would always reach out or message me to party up. We are still interviewing members interested in becoming officers, if you want more information on how, message me or one of my officers. I want to remind everyone the C.O.C. applies to all KSI based chats. If you or your friends are having trouble with a fellow member, or have any kind of questions please bring it to an officer so we can properly address the issue. I'm a firm believer in second chances, but I also want everyone here to have an amazing time gaming with others in our community, I will not tolerate blatant disregard of the C.O.C or toxicity towards any members. I havent seen any signs of toxicity in our squad and I want to keep it like that.

KSI Div Leaders Meeting Notes

Dec 4, 2019

Clan OPs

 

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.

Squad meeting notes

Good evening, Templar. I hope everyone is having another great week. Thank you for being apart of this great squad and community. I just want to remind everyone of the open door policy, if you have any ideas, questions, comments, or concerns please get with an officer, so we can resolve it asap.
One amazing opportunity is ahead of our members the chance to compete against other communities in a modern warfare 5v5 tourney against 3 teams from KSI, Xiled Syndicate, and EGS will play in professional/competitive rules tourney. So do the afriad to grab 4 of your best squad mates and participate in the preliminary tourney held on Friday December 20th @7pm EST. To determine which 3 teams will represent KSI against XS and EGS in the very first inter-comunity tourney in a very long time. But keep in mind the code of conduct is strictly enforced when representing KSI, so no toxic or unsportsmanlike conduct is going to be acceptable in the preliminary tourney or the real tourney on Friday January 20th 2020. Also just a heads up leadership development classes will start signups in January 2020.
Also please use chain of command when you have any questions, so everyone has the opportunity to grow as a leader, I know sometimes it tends to be easy to go to the person you know has the answers but by skipping a rank you inhibit that officers potential growth and chance to learn something new.
Just want everyone to know things change in life, but I'm going to be doing my best to keep Templar one of the best squads out there. December montage and clip submissions are open now. Productions are looking for members that want to get involved with streaming KSI events and your gameplay.
We are currently interviewing candidates for potential officers, if you want get more involved with the squad and help give back to the community. Please get with an officer for more information. With Christmas and New Year's right around the corner I would like to encourage everyone to get with an officer, to put an loa in if you are going to be offline for more than 3-5 days. From December 22nd to January 2nd, it is not mandatory to be on, it's the holiday season spend it with your loved ones. I want to thank you all for attending the squad meeting, have a wonderful rest of your night.

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!

Clan OPS Notes:

Motivating Growth 

In KSI it is important that squads have a healthy ratio between SGTs+ and CPL and below. We should achieve these healthy ratios by positive interactions and mentoring our members at an early level in their career. But, in no circumstances should we be giving ultimatums to our members to change their gamertags. Not only does this leave a bad taste in the member but it is a great way to lose their interest forever. 

Cupid’s Clash 

Don’t forget about Cupid’s Clash coming up real soon. The event takes place from 2/14 to 2/16 and is a solo sign up event. You will sign up and the Tournament and Events staff will be pairing you up with your partner. The following game type will be played in the tournament are 

                       GTA 5 2v2 Sumo

                       Uno (Xbox edition)

                       Brawlhalla 2v2 

                       COD MW 2v2 Gun Fight

                       Minecraft Build Off

If you have any questions or want more information check out the Cupid’s Clash area on the forums via: https://www.ksiforums.org/forum/453-cupids-clash/

Relationships (Officers and up)  

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 or division they are in even including the same division. It is always a good idea to let your Gen or 7's staff know about said relationship as soon as possible. You don't have to go into details just have to say "hey i'm dating so and so" that way if there is any drama that might affect the squad or division, the GEN and/or 7's staff can get ahead of the situation.

Don't Shame Games  

We all joke around with each other but sometimes we can cross the line and give certain games in party's or the discord chats a hard time by saying one game is better than the other or that game is trash. This is something of a personal opinion. People can and will enjoy playing what they enjoy and if we are actively bashing a game is not going to change their opinion all it's going to do is push our fellow members away. We were all recruited off of a variety of different games and that diversity is what makes KSI what we are today.

Member Retention

Every rank from RCT all the way up is important. SGTs to PVTS get lost within the day to day doings of the community. Officers and Members of the community it is our job to make sure all members are being invited to all activities within the squad and division. If there is a member that you haven’t spoken to in a while, reach out and see what is going on and get them back active with the squad and division. 

Game Nights and Teamwork

Game nights should be a team effort, it should never be left to one officer to hold them. Officers should also be working as a team and helping each other. Being a team makes the work easier and not as overwhelming. Simply communicate to each other, we have these cool Discord servers for a reason. The Discord servers are a great tool as long as we utilize it as such. Never be afraid to reach out for guidance or help.

Accepting Change 

Accepting change is always hard, but sometimes very necessary. Accepting help or new leaders into a squad or division can be hard. We as leaders should never be discouraged or angry about people coming in to help your squad and/or division. At the end of the day it’s about keeping your squad or family healthy and active. It’s about building up those around you that have been fighting for a squad alone. 

Never Be Afraid To Ask 

If you ever have a question don't be afraid to ask. There are no stupid questions. Asking questions is one of the best ways to learn something new. Sometimes we might think that we know the answer but if uncertain it's best to ask and make certain rather than make a simple mistake.

Valentine’s Day Shout Outs

 If you feel it in your heart to give someone a Valentine’s Day Shout Out then simply click the link below. Remember you can shoutout up to 3 people and these will be announced during the weekend of Cupid’s Clash. It also awards the shiny new forums award “Someone Loves Me” to your nominee.

This is one of the only awards that you can use the reasoning of “because they’re my best friend and I love them”.  The best part is it’s anonymous so you can do it free of embarrassment.https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSflNUfq8OqYSc8EbhsyADOtDioHTpROn2xBE6h5ngmn6Hobnw/viewform

Finding Potential Officers 

Remember as we are growing our squads, we do need officers to help handle the day to day activities for the squad. We will never force anyone to be an officer rather as leaders we can try ways to motivate those who have at least thought about stepping up. Recruiting workshops & CEP workshops are ideal events to host to help introduce what is required of an officer. If people approach you or your officers about the possibility of stepping up then do your best to assist them. For members who want more information about becoming an officer please contact your officer staff and/or general for more information. 

Building Momentum

Adversity in Clan Ops in any aspect does not come with a warning, we as leaders should always try to be prepared for potential incidents by including every member in our gamenights, squad meetings, workshops, and in our daily discord chats within our squads/divisions. Members won't leave to join something if they already feel like a part of our family in their current environments. 

Motivating Growth

In KSI it is important that squads have a healthy ratio between SGTs+ and CPL and below. We should achieve these healthy ratios by positive interactions and mentoring our members at an early level in their career. But, in no circumstances should we be giving ultimatums to our members to change their gamertags. Not only does this leave a bad taste in the member but it is a great way to lose their interest forever. 

Cupid’s Clash 

Don’t forget about Cupid’s Clash coming up real soon. The event takes place from 2/14 to 2/16 and is a solo sign up event. You will sign up and the Tournament and Events staff will be pairing you up with your partner. The following game type will be played in the tournament are 

GTA 5 2v2 Sumo

Uno (Xbox edition)

Brawlhalla 2v2 

COD MW 2v2 Gun Fight

Minecraft Build Off

If you have any questions or want more information check out the Cupid’s Clash area on the forums via: https://www.ksiforums.org/forum/453-cupids-clash/

Accepting Change 

Accepting change is always hard, but sometimes very necessary. Accepting help or new leaders into a squad or division can be hard. We as leaders should never be discouraged or angry about people coming in to help your squad and/or division. At the end of the day it’s about keeping your squad or family healthy and active. It’s about building up those around you that have been fighting for a squad alone. 

Never Be Afraid To Ask

If you ever have a question don't be afraid to ask. There are no stupid questions. Asking questions is one of the best ways to learn something new. Sometimes we might think that we know the answer but if uncertain it's best to ask and make certain rather than make a simple mistake.

Keep It Civil 

Please remember to be civil when in parties. When giving each other a hard time sometimes it can be easy to go over the line. You should always know your audience and if you don't know the people then keep it civil. You can joke around with people you know in small or invite only parties as long as there are no hurt feelings and it's within the COC. For newer members this will create a less hostile environment and member retention can and will improve.

HELP From Other Leaders 

Sometimes divisions or squads need help moving forward or getting back on their feet. So the leader in or over the divisions and squads tries to make the best decision for everyone involved. Please remember making these decisions is not an easy task or taken lightly. Also sometimes we as leaders we do not have time to talk to the division about these changes we have to act and make things happen. At the end of the day the Director Team and the Division 7s have to and will make the best decision for the divisions and squads.

Fluff Reminder: 

While we are conducting our normal clan ops operations whether it be recruiting, promoting new officer talent, etc. It's important to recognize that we need to take a second to acknowledge/address our longer standing members and see if we can use their longevity to build up our existing Officer Core. Leadership talent is everywhere, we just have to be open enough to find it.

Finding Potential Officers 

Remember as we are growing our squads, we do need officers to help handle the day to day activities for the squad. We will never force anyone to be an officer rather as leaders we can try ways to motivate those who have at least thought about stepping up. Recruiting workshops & CEP workshops are ideal events to host to help introduce what is required of an officer. If people approach you or your officers about the possibility of stepping up then do your best to assist them.

Adversity in Clan Ops in any aspect does not come with a warning, we as leaders should always try to be prepared for potential incidents by including every member in our gamenights, squad meetings, workshops, and in our daily discord chats within our squads/divisions. Members won't leave to join something if they already feel like a part of our family in their current environments. 

Keep It Civil 

Please remember to be civil when in parties. When giving each other a hard time sometimes it can be easy to go over the line. You should always know your audience and if you don't know the people then keep it civil. You can joke around with people you know in small or invite only parties as long as there are no hurt feelings and it's within the COC.

HELP From Other Leaders 

Sometimes divisions or squads need help moving forward or getting back on their feet. So the leader in or over the divisions and squads tries to make the best decision for everyone involved. Please remember making these decisions is not an easy task or taken lightly. Also sometimes as leaders we do not have time to talk to the division about these changes we have to act and make things happen. At the end of the day the Director Team and the Division 7s have to and will make the best decision for the divisions and squads. 

Communication  

Please remember to always communicate any and all concerns that you might have with your officer staff. If something doesn't seem right and you are not certain ask someone AKA an officer higher than you to bring it to their attention. If they don't know that there is a problem then they can't fix it. This can lead to bigger problems if it's not addressed early it can cause a snowball effect and grow fast.

Being a TEAM within your divisions has to be as big of a deal as COMMUNICATION is. Working together as a team makes the workload lighter but it also shows a united front. If the 7s staff communicates with the GENs and makes them feel like the bigger picture amazing things can happen. But please understand the final say and path of the division is in the hands of the 7 staff but having info from everyone helps make these decisions better for the division.

Clan ops Notes: 

Social Network:

KSI is a social gaming community; which means you have an expansive list of potential people to play with both within your division or across the community. Utilizing the forums, meeting through LFG posts or through mutual friends can create awesome friendships. It also helps if you play at an odd hour in the day that maybe you can find others who fit your schedule. We challenge you as well as all KSI members to go out and make 1 new friend this week. 

 

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.

 

The Upside of The Coronavirus:

Most of the world is under quarantine, which means activity on xbox will probably never be higher until this Christmas break. Use this time wisely to repair any holes in your squad. SSG’s and up should see this as a golden opportunity to knock out the obstacles holding our squads back from prosperous growth. At the same time, we encourage everyone to take the time needed to maintain your financial status, residence, etc.

Good Sportsmanship:

With the Spring Break event fast approaching we ALL need to remember a few things. 

 

Treating other members and players with respect.  

If you have an issue calmly take it to proper people and handle it like adults. Also once an issue has been resolved and all parties agree to it,  that’s the end of it!!

Have fun and enjoy the event. 

And as always the Code of Conduct does apply!!

But remember at the end of the day this event and all events are meant to bring our community together. They are to be fun and exciting and meet new people. So have fun and enjoy the event. 

 

Don't Give Up:

In KSI and in real life we all have our ups and downs but it's important not to give up. Remember to ask for help when needed there is no shame in asking for help. Sometimes it's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel but it does get better, we just have to wait it out. The important thing is to not get overwhelmed to the point of wanting to leave KSI.

 

RCT To PVT to CPL:

As it is always awesome bringing in new RCTs we as officers and 7s have to stay on top of their promotions. Once they are made a PVT after their 24-48 hour hold on the RCT Club/Tag they have to be promoted to a CPL in 7 days!! Make sure these promotions are happening in that timely manner. If your officers CAN NOT get them promoted within 14-20 days after a promotion to PVT then they need to be removed!! It does no good for us to hold on to dead RCTs. There is no excuse for a PVT sitting on Omega for months at a time. If your squad has any PVTs that are older than 20 days they need to be removed ASAP!! We need to start holding our GENs to this and if they are not the problem then we need to hold the 7 staff accountable. 

 

Utilizing the Forums:

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. What better time to introduce them to the forums then before a big event like spring break. This 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.

Being a Community in a Community:

While all divisions are working diligently to improve their squads, it's important to remember what makes KSI unique. Our compassion and attention to detail to all of our members, we need to constantly remind ourselves that our success is only limited to our aspiring PVT’s and up. If we take care of them and develop a personal connection to our members, then our members will take care of us in return. Nominate them for our forums awards, ask them how their day is going, be there for them. This is how we will generate more interest that our divisional staff can use to enhance their atmospheres.

Once they are made a PVT after their 24-48 hour hold on the RCT Club/Tag they have to be promoted to a CPL in 7 days!! Make sure these promotions are happening in that timely manner. If your officers CAN NOT get them promoted within 14-20 days after a promotion to PVT then they need to be removed!! It does no good for us to hold on to dead RCTs. There is no excuse for a PVT sitting on Omega for months at a time. If your squad has any PVTs that are older than 20 days they need to be removed ASAP!! We need to start holding our GENs to this and if they are not the problem then we need to hold the 7 staff accountable. 

 

Utilizing the Forums:

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. What better time to introduce them to the forums then before a big event like spring break. This 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.

 

Team Building:

Including you officer staff in decisions can make a huge impact in your squad and its morale. There are several great things that can come from Team Building. The communication within your team will get strong and better. Working together and mentoring the future of your squads, divisions, and KSI is how this community survives anything that is thrown at. So build your TEAM!! Build a team that is willing to grow change and reach for better!!! 

 

Spring Break Over:

We hope everyone had a wonderful Spring Break and had fun participating and cheering on your prospective teams and congrats to all the winner's and to all those that participated. We're looking forward to the next event everyone's favorite Spirit Week
