Meeting notes 3/19/23
The greatest leader is not necessarily he one who does the greatest things.
He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things. - Ronald Regan
Big Meeting Announced for April!
For All Section Leaders and General's only: The Big Meeting on Discord has been announced to be held on April 16th, 2023. Save the date!
GROUPS AND RECRUITING
We have been observing some parties that have the same members in them that are not bringing in others or going out and more specifically not going out and Recruiting. These are normally the clans/groups that have the hardest time recruiting. Remember that recruiting helps our clans and ultimately our community grow. If we are not giving time to the community by assisting in recruiting then we cannot be mad at nobody but ourselves. All members, regardless of rank, should be helping bring in 1 Recruit a month. If every member of every division were to bring in 1 recruits, we would have several hundred recruits in a months time at minimum. Remember that by working together, this stays a hobby and does not become a job. Challenge your members this month - can they bring in 1 Recruit?
TRANSFER PROCESS
Any member wanting to Transfer must put the request to their direct leadership first.- "This is the First step to any transfer, we are not mind readers.."
Who/What Where of transfers:
Division to Division Transfers: Are handled by the Section Leaders/Division leaders of Xiled Gaming.
Most Division-to-Division transfers are handled by the Section Leaders, we promote peer to peer relations, and if there is ever a tricky situation you can call upon your division leader for final confirmation.
Any Section Leader/Division leader alerted to the situation must meet to discuss the transfer/ find placement (Division Leader only If needed)
- Section to Section Transfers: Are handled by Section Leader of Xiled Gaming. Any Section Leader alerted to the situation must meet to discuss the transfer/ find placement.
- Clan to Clan Transfers: Are handled by Generals of Xiled Gaming. Any General alerted to the situation must meet to discuss the transfer/ find placement.
- Squad to squad Transfers: Captains can transfer only if your both under the same General.
Always report these changes to your direct leadership. When working with transfers we only have a 72-hour window for processing., so we must be diligent when attempting to reach out to the proper channels to get these resolved., Why 72 hours? Well, 72 hours is three days., Basic time requirements, right?, "DUH" so whatever the reason for the transfer, remember there is no reason to become complacent. we are not in the habit of holding transfers. Now with that said, if there is ever a case by case situation, then you need to inform your leadership, and the member that there will be a delay, Communication is the key to success. Does a leader have the right to deny a transfer "either incoming, or outgoing" ?, Yes you do, we encourage you to be selective when bringing new faces in , and we never want you to transfer a problem. When your not certain if the member is transferable,,, well ask yourself this, Are they a good fit for another clan, section, or Division. and finally Are they a good fit for the community as a whole., When working with different personality's one thing you have to realize is, some clash, but that doesn't mean the member isn't a good fit somewhere else. Being social and getting to know our peers through out the community can/will assist you in this task.
GAMERTAGS CHANGE REQUESTS
The 5th rule in Honor Code states the following:
"New members will not be allowed to change their gamer tag until reaching the rank of Sergeant and receiving approval from a Section Leader or higher."
Please make sure that we all remember that players wanting to join the community never have to change their gamertags if they don't want to, however, we highly encourage them to do so once they reach the rank of Sgt. so they can represent the Division they are apart of. Remember that changing your gamertag to include your division means that you represent the community as a whole 100% of the time you are online!
RELATIONSHIPS AND LEADERSHIP IN XG
To eliminate drama and keep any kind of favoritism or feelings from influencing decisions, XG does not allow husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend, or immediate family to directly report. We realize that with the amazing members we have, at some point you might find the person who completes your life. If you do, we require you to notify a leader (XD, XC, XI) so one of you can be moved. Notifying a leader of these relationships
will not result in the loss of rank or removal from the community. However, any lying, deception, manipulation of stories or members, or relationships that generate issues or drama for the community
may result in demotion and/or removal from the community. The rank structure is intended to be followed without personal feelings or emotional decisions affecting the directions of our clans.
Look, we get it, some of you are going to date. We don't care! Just spare us and your division the drama of going through it by being honest!
