11/05/12 TRA Official newsletter issue 16 Away with TRAMA
Creator’s note: This issue was written up as kind of an emergency due to unexpected issues with the newsletter team. Don’t expect it to be too long.
Hello TRA, this has been a rather interesting week for us. The two most major stories for us are the removal of the TRA Majors Academy group, and the release of the new TRA Fort Normandy VIP. Plus, we find out that the TRA base contest ends tomorrow, so for those of you who read this late, I guess this newsletter will seem slightly outdated to you.
So let’s jump straight into this, with an article from our good friend Thorhayes, who is going to tell us all about the shutdown of TRAMA. During this week, the High Ranks have come to their conclusion to shut down TRAMA. In their decision they have brought back the old system to get noticed by High Ranks. This was decided because after a number of reforms to the TRAMA group, many captains felt that they had been treated unfairly, and complained. This lead to the removal of the group from our official allies list and it is no longer in use. The new system is for the High Ranks to vote for the captain which deserves major the most. Every week, all of the HRs will vote for a new Major, and any Captain that gets a good majority of votes will be checked by Tonitoni and then potentially promoted to the prestigious rank of Major. So remember guys, you now have even more of a reason to be at Normandy or raids often. Get out there and get noticed TRA!
Next up, I have a little bit of info for you about our newest piece of tech available at Normandy. Now, everyone can have access to the TRA shotgun that used to be given only to high ranks that use admin. Now, however, if you purchase the VIP shirt from Tonitoni’s T-shirts, then you can have it too. But make sure you have saved up for that baby though, as you need to have 3000 tix or 250 robux to get your hands on it. If you can afford this whopping part of your budget, then it is well worth it. You get a weapon that, if your close enough, can give you a 1 hit kill. Plus, your cash doesn’t go into Tonitoni’s hat fund either. All of the cash you pay for this weapon goes towards running ads for TRA. So come on guys. If you have the money going spare, which I know some of you do, why not up your game with this superb piece of TRA kit.
This leads me neatly onto the next point of call for this issue: members. Since Tonitoni has taken over, we have had a massive surge in numbers. I don’t know the exact amount, but since his take over, we have gained over 2500 members, and we are still growing rapidly every day. And there can be only one reason for this. You guys. I have seen loads of ads flying around lately for TRA, along with lots of recruitment at the HQ. Plus, everyone has been extremely welcoming to our new members on the wall, offering advice and showing them helpful forum posts. I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say, welcome new members of TRA, and well done to whoever recruited you!
So, as promised, here’s a note about the build a base contest. This ends tomorrow, and I have been looking through the entries. Whilst my personal opinion is that mine is the best, I have seen some other superb entries. For those of you who don’t know, Tonitoni will be picking the best entry tomorrow, and the creator of that entry will be given 500 robux, a promotion up to the rank of captain and their entry will be the new TRA HQ. For those of you who haven’t entered yet, there is still time. For those of you that haven’t started yet, unless you’re a super-fast builder, I wouldn’t bother, you’re a bit late. I wish all entries the best of luck, and I’m sure that we are all looking forward to finding out who won the contest.
Now, just a final note of exploiters. They are still there! ROBLOX has not yet fixed the problem of exploits, so it’s up to all of you to leave a server if an HR or MP tells you to. This way we can limit the damage of these exploits. Any TRA that is found not to be co-operating with an HR or MP will face punishment, so it’s in your best interest to leave an exploited server.
It looks we’re done again, TRA. Like I said, this week is a fair bit shorter than usual because I wasn’t expecting to have to write this week’s issue. I don’t know who is going to be writing the newsletter next week, but remember to look out for us on the wall.
Thanks for reading, TRA

| Sorry sir, but as I said, I had to work fast. If I had planned on writing this from the start, that would be in there. |

| Ryjohn, to make sure it is not rushed give the writers more time to write, by default giving the editors more time to edit, and givig you and the HRs more time to polish it |

| Perhaps you could loan it to the HR's. And I feel you getting banned is a uninteresting story Toni. |
