Hello, and welcome, to the 7th Edition of the Vortex Security Newsletter!

What's been going on this week?

-Clan blackout-

From the 1st of May 2012, at midnight, till Wednesday afternoon EST, VS and various other clans such as RAT participated in a "clan blackout", meaning all forts were shutdown, there were no trainings, and the logo and description changed. This was to protest against the lack of communication between the Roblox admins and the players on how and when the Exploits were to be fixed. It was also to raise awareness of the exploits to the clan members. Clan business continued normally after the blackout.

-The new VS:Honors Division-

This week, Advisor Opperblox24 created a new "Honors Division" for the best of Vortex Security. This is a group where the best members will be recognized, and make it easier for them to communicate to HR's.
You DO NOT ask a Secretary to accept you, as this will probably reduce the chances of you getting accepted.
The first 3 members in this group are Lieutenant Powersound, Sergeant Richjoel, and Colonel Ttom25rocks, I think a congratulations is in order for them!

-VS Creativity Competition-

A week ago, I created a small competition for VS members to do in their Roblox spare time. This competition has 4 parts: Writing, Architecture, Art, and Miscallaneous. There are 1st places, 2nd, and 3rds, and the deadline is in 2 Weeks, unless it needs extending.

-New Helis at 3.1-

Colonel Colt234 has made new Helis for Vulcan 3.1, I suggest you go check them out!

-OFFICIAL DIVISIONS-

A couple of days ago, Advisor Opperblox24 made a thread about official divsions, as some members were creating their own divisions, which is against the rules. Here are the official divisions:
VS:Marine corps
VS:Rangers
VS:High ranks
VS:Legal department
VS:Honors division
Anyone found to own a Unofficial divison of VS, Will be demoted, or possibly exiled, DO NOT make unofficial divisions, as we will end up with too many.

-Colonel Cap-

A rough guide for the amount of Colonels has been made; 15 Colonels approximately, and probably never above 20. This is a rough guide, and can be changed.

-Note to Captains-

Captains of VS, Please make sure you PM a Colonel+ AP/CP earned at a training you hold, as some members have complained that they have not earned AP from some Captains trainings. If their is not a Colonel+ at your training, DO NOT forget to do this.

-Small VS poll on trainings-

This is just a small poll on VS trainings, and what VS members like about them, please answer it.

1)What is your favourite part of a training?
A) SF
B) Gunfight
C) Drill/discipline
D) Obby

2) What would you like to see more of at trainings?
A) More action
B) More AP to earn
C) More discipline
D) Fun :D

3) Would you like to see any of these activities at Trainings (Choose as many as you want):
A) Juggernaut
B) Team Deathmatches
C) FFA (Free for all)
D) Obby-Swordfight bonanza
E) Other (Your ideas)

4) Should trainings be locked? (Yes or no)
5) Are trainings long enough (Yes, or no)

-END OF POLL-

-VS Story suggestions-

I've been thinking carefully about writing a VS story, but I want to know what the members want to read.
My main ideas are WW2 Era, or Mongolian Empire style, but If you have other suggestions, Please voice them.

-VS Interview unavailable at the moment, it may be posted in the comments at a later date, sorry for the inconvenience-

-Riddle of the week!-

Take away my first letter; take away my second letter; take away all of my letters, and I would remain the same. What am I?


Anddd That is it for this week of the VS newsletter, thank you for reading!
If you want to have a section in this newsletter, please PM me your ideas, and if I think it is suitable for the Newsletter, i'll put it in!
Thanks!

-Colonel Bass

1)What is your favourite part of a training?
C) Drill/discipline (Sadly, colonels consider being quiet for 5 minutes and standing still a discipline lesson)

2) What would you like to see more of at trainings?
C) More discipline(Refer to first answer)

3) Would you like to see any of these activities at Trainings (Choose as many as you want):
B) Team Deathmatches(VS needs to focus on TEAMWORK more. We usually work on independent things- Obstacle courses, 1 v 1 sword tournaments, etc.

4) Should trainings be locked? (Yes or no)
-Yes, but colonels overuse it. For example, don't put a server to a max of 30 players if you lock at 12-16. The purpose of lock is to stop at a FULL server, which Aric introduced correctly, but Colonels changed. Plus, ipax, no offence, a "break" where we unlock server is pointless.
5) Are trainings long enough (Yes, or no)
Most VS trainings are "Get x amount of KOs or this weighted average for a promotion". HRs need to be more dedicated to their trainings, and actually train them- Not let them run around, spawn killing, FF killing, and more. Many colonels do this, and it shows laziness that VS does not need.
