Part 1:
There have recently been two security issues with UAF:
1. UAF high ranks are being impersonated by alternate accounts that are using the letters L and i to replicate account names, or putting the original name and adding the word 'Alt' at the end.
These accounts are never to be trusted, promoted, or listened to, and if you see any join UAF, tell myself or a General immediately.
2. The 'beef' family of accounts is a twist on the TNQ/DRRQ family from Benblue9's era.
These accounts can be expected to 'troll' at forts, personally insult members, sow the seeds of distrust between low ranks and high ranks, and generally bother the peace and harmony of our motherland.
It is possible that they may have high rank support, and if so, an admin attack is a possibility is well. However, we have ranks logged, so I'm not entirely worried, and you shouldn't be either.
UAF will be request to join for a little while, so high ranks, I implore you do not accept any accounts with the word 'beef', 'b33f', 'I3eef', or any other contextualization of the word into UAF, as well as keeping out those fake alternate accounts.
Part 2:
Colonel Reform Feedback:
In shadowsword's era, he held a large Colonel reform that was several times larger than mine.
This met with huge protest, and as a result, he repealed the entire reform, along with promoting new Colonels.
That made more problems than it solved, and now the high ranks of this era are left cleaning up after it.
Now, do not think your opinions are unimportant.
It is a constitutional right for you to voice your opinions publicly, and as long as those opinions are stated in a neutral tone, they are ok.
Your freedom of speech and the right to your own opinion are absolutely two of the best rights you have within UAF, and I encourage you to exercise them.
However, people have been voicing their opinions, and saying things about how they would get demoted for their opinions, in an attempt at triggering emotional appeal to other comrades, and strengthening their arguments.
So, let's reconcile:
-You, the members of UAF, will state your opinions with the feelings of others in mind, and do so in a way that does not blatantly insult me, other low ranks, other high ranks, or the ways things or done.
There is a way to show distaste without using the words 'stupid', 'retarded', or any other derogatory adjectives.
-As long as your opinions are stated kindly, you're fine.
-Now, if I, the commander in chief of the Urban Assault Forces, demote you for stating your opinion with a neutral tone, leadership of UAF goes to Tbarpo immediately.
With that out of the way, I would like for you to post your thoughts on the Colonel reform in a reply to this thread.
However, allow me to clear up some common misconceptions:
-Not all of those demoted in the reform were chose by me, thus it should be noted that I did not do this reform all on my own, with disregard for other opinions.
-The insults I referred to when discussing MouldyNukeBombAbs' demotion were stated *privately*, within a UAF high rank chat room on XF.
-When referring to Mouldy's misuse of power, this was in reference to PMs I received from trust lower ranked individuals who were specifically called out by Mouldy, when they were not the ones causing trouble.
-Ryanr23's demotion was *not* only because of his misbehavior on the forums, but also an agreement that since his first suspension from Colonel in Shadowsword's era to the current point in time, he has done little to nothing within UAF.
-Sidous25 has appealed his demotion, and it is quite likely his rank will be returned, though it must be discussed first.
-If someone has a pending demotion, it does *not* mean that they will *definitely* be demoted. It means that a followup must be done, so arguing about Blaze and Locke 'being demoted' is invalid, because they haven't been.
Opinions on the Colonel Reform should be posted below!

| Well, I agree. It's still a pity, though, to have them demoted.. |

I believe all of the demotions are backed up by valid reasons and although I am sadend that Mouldy has been demoted I am assured that the right move was taken by the HRs to do so. I'm a strong supporter of blaze and I beleive he has worked very hard to get where he is today in UAF, and I hope that he retins his rank. Thankyou for this clarification DH.
The motherland will thrive with you in charge. |

I would just like to state in my defense, that i have been on vacation for the past 3 weeks. That being said, I was unable to hold trainings, or any similar events. There has recently been a reform in the UAF division UAF special operations, and i have been assisting general tntboy2001 in it. I believe this is what you were referring to when you stated; "Does work in lesser divisions rather than the main group.". If I were not on vacation, I assure you that i would have been considerably more active in the main group. But seeing as i was, in fact, on vacation, there wasn't much i could do in the main group other than post on the wall whenever possible.
