**DISCLAIMER: This is subject to change at any time**
So, you want to be promoted in VS? That's great, we are glad. However, VS works completely differently from other clans.
There are two main statistics when it comes to being promoted, and that would be Action Points (AP) and Command Points (CP).
Action Points: AP is earned when you are recognized by a a VS HR. In order to obtain it, you must participate in a training, defend a VS fort, assist in a raid against an enemy clan, or anything else that a VS HR deems worthy of a reward. However, you must NEVER ASK for AP. It will be given to you if your actions are recognized by a HR, not if you ask. Asking for AP will in turn make you LOSE AP, so don't ever do it. You may only earn a certain amount of AP every day.
Command Points: CP is earned when you are recognized for an outstanding achievement in VS, such as taking over an entire enemy base or defending a fort singlehandedly from an onslaught of raiders. It will also be given if you have outstanding leadership ability, and you are able to lead lower ranks effectively. It will NEVER be given during a training, only in real combat scenarios. Like AP, you should NEVER ask for it, or risk losing it.
Once you have a certain amount of AP and CP, you will be promoted. Here are the ranks and their requirements:
Recruit: - Join VS
Private: - Earn at least 1 AP or CP
Corporal: - Earn at least 5 AP or CP
Sergeant: - Earn at least 30 AP or CP - Earn at least 5 CP
Lieutenant: - You need two recommendations from either captains, colonels, or generals - Earn at least 60 AP or CP - Earn at least 10 CP
Captain: - You need five recommendations from either colonels or generals - Pass the Captain Evaluation Test - Earn at least 120 AP or CP - Earn at least 20 CP
Colonel: - Pass the Captain Evaluation Test AND Colonel Evaluation Test - Earn at least 300 AP or CP - Earn at least 60 CP - Have the recommendation of all but one of the generals - Have the approval of justgoaway1
General: - All requirements for Colonel - Be handpicked by justgoaway1
There is no limit to how much AP and CP you can earn a day.
Things to note:
- You will NEVER be promoted or given AP or CP by just asking for it - Every time you are given AP, CP, or are promoted, you will be notified (along with the amount) - You may not earn more than 3 AP or 2 CP for any given act. The recommended amount given is always 1. CP is only for outstanding achievements. - Do not ask a HR to tell you your AP and CP, instead earn more to find out. - You will be promoted automatically when you meet the requirements, do not ask to be promoted and claim you have the required AP and CP amount; we know. - You will LOSE AP and CP and risk a demotion if you exploit, teamkill, spawnkill, be disrespectful to allies or VS members, or anything else a HR deems wrong. - Bad actions will follow you for life, we will make a note in the system explaining what you did. However, good actions will also follow you for life!
**The rest is JUST FOR HRs. You can read if you want, but isn't necessary**
Data Nexus: http://www.roblox.com/Vortex-Security-Data-Nexus-place?id=70520204
The Data Nexus is the newest and most advanced piece of technology when it comes to keeping track of ranks. You must ALWAYS use it when promoting or demoting someone, otherwise you will risk a demotion or even an exilation.
Terms of use are as follows:
- Do NOT forge profiles (create an illegitimate profile and load it up with AP/CP/change its rank)
- Do NOT make silly or otherwise useless notes or reasons for actions such as "lolhi". Every official thing MUST be serious!
- Do NOT promote someone without promoting them in the Nexus first!
- Do not promote yourself below recruit or above your rank in VS (If you are a colonel do NOT make yourself a general in the nexus)
- Every time you promote/demote/give AP or CP/take AP or CP, do two things: 1. View their logs (button on their profile), go to the last page, and quickly go through and make sure they do not have a forged profile (given a ton of AP and CP for no reason by one person/ranked without necessary AP or CP). If they have no logs, then ignore this.
2. View their notes, go to the last page, and read at least five of the most recent notes. If they have no notes, then ignore this.
How to use:
1. Creating/finding a profile In order to create a profile for someone who does not exist, type their EXACT (remember, the name must ALWAYS be exact!) name into the search box. Then, hit the search button. Their profile will automatically be created and entered in the database as a recruit. The same process is how you search for existing profiles.
2. Ranking/deranking someone First, go to their profile in the nexus. Then, open up the VS group admin and search their name (like you would normally promote someone). Do NOT promote or demote them yet. Then, go back to the data nexus, and hit "Modify Rank". Select whether to promote or demote them. Then, provide a short (BUT VALID) reason as to why (example: "Reached 20 AP"). Then, go back to the group page and rank them in the group. If you cannot complete ALL of these steps, do NOT do any of them. All steps are necessary for the process, and if you fail to complete a step then you run the risk of being demoted.
3. Giving/Taking AP/CP Go to their profile in the Nexus. Then hit "Change AP" or "Change CP". The rest is pretty self explainatory. Remember to provide a reason!
That's really it. All actions are logged, so don't even think about forging a profile or forging ranks/AP/whatever. Every day the whole place is archived and saved, just in case we need to roll back or in case we need the data to fix an admin attack (in the unlikely scenario of one). If you have any questions, contact me on XF. |

| VS is getting really organized now. It's nice to see the clan advancing far beyond what's been expected of VS in previous times. |

| Whoa... i feel like the VS High Ranks will have more work rather than not only to promote them in main VS. |

I love the idea! But I would just like to ask, will we lose our money at VS bases like Vulcan and Valor or will both the forts be scrapped and will be made new versions?

1.0 was so ungodly hard. My former Colonel Fredfishy was the first one to ever notice this I do believe. |
