This is no admin attack.
It has come to my attention that the VS promotion system is extremely skewed. There is no prestige in being a VS high rank, or any rank for that matter. Not only this, I am nowhere near active enough to maintain this clan alone.
I had other clans before this. But this was at the start of the clan world, none of these clans were ever large nor important in any way. I didn't even spend that much time in them. I had no idea it was doing, in reality it was lol carbines get KOs.
VS was my first real clan, and came long after all of the above. I am willing to say I had no prior clan experience. VS started as a joke, but it turned into something bigger. Much bigger. However, even as the second biggest clan, it is still a joke. That's how it started, that is how it still is.
This reform has been debated among some VS generals over the past few weeks. Debated on how to get it done, debated on if we should do it at all, debated on whether or not to pretend it was an AA. The set date was spring vacation. The reasoning for this date was because I thought at least by then the new tech I am working on would be out. It is becoming increasingly clear that managing this clan, managing my personal life, and creating tech is too much. There is one too many factors in all of this.
Now I know more. I've been active in the clan world for a year. Getting members for my clan was the easy part, but the part I completely failed in was managing it. But I know better now.
All of these reasons combined has led me to reform VS, effective immediately. This will be no ordinary reform. I have never seen a reform work. That's because you are all wussies. This will not be like a wussy reform, like you are used to. This will be a manly, all or nothing reform. And it will work, because I know it will.
Everyone is demoted. All corporals-colonels are, effective immediately, now privates.
Now, before I get into specifics, i'd like to personally thank and apologize to everyone who has legitimately earned their ranks and are being demoted. I can only hope you will stay in VS and reearn your ranks. If you leave VS over this, I understand.
But if you whine, I revoke my apology. This is not a democracy. I have said this before and will say this again, I run my clan how I run my clan. You have the option to stay or get out, one or the other.
Back to specifics.
Some lieutenant generals and generals will stay at their rank. The rest will be demoted to colonel. Please understand me when I say I have no quarrel with any of you. This is not favoritism. I trust all of you, that is why you had the ability to promote in the first place. But only a select few will be generals. I have five in mind.
Generals will be able to promote anyone to any rank. They will be given the ability to exile and manage ally/enemy relations, as well. However, they will not be able to promote captain+ without the consent of at least four of them, and further still all of them and myself for colonels.
We're still working out the specifics, but this is known for sure:
-Colonels and Captains will be, in a way, equal in rank.
-Colonel will be an administration rank. Will be able to promote.
-Captain will be a leadership rank. Will not be able to promote, however. You will be able to jump to either Captain or Colonel as a lieutenant, whereas the ranks are equal. You might, by the standards of the generals, be able to promoted to Captain but not Colonel and vice versa.
-Captains will be able to send promotion lists to Colonels for them to promote people, but at a delay.
-There will be a way to track all promotions/demotions within the clan, automated with reasons, comments on the person, past promotion history, ect. This will all be backed up every day, in the (very rare, VS has never been AA'd so far) case of an AA.
-Generals will be able to exile and manage clan relations.
-All divisions but VS:HR will be removed and eventually replaced with better ones.
-Everyone in VS:HR who at the end of the reform are not Colonel+ will be kicked
And, finally,
-This reform will change VS forever.
Again, if you aren't pleased with this reform, you are welcome to leave VS. But don't complain. You are welcome to disagree with it, but the last thing I want to see is whining. I personally guarantee by this time next year, VS will do a complete 180 and will be regarded as the most well managed group on ROBLOX.
See you then. |

| This reform is very good. No offense in any way but outside of VS people are always cracking jokes about how VS is so nooby and stuff like that. This reform might get rid of them so I am very happy. |

I cannot wait to see the kids whine and leave. This is also good because we can catch the people who are here just for promo`s and respect but really it is about making VS better.
-Sincerely Recruit Chanx241 |
