Meeting notes

[XGC SWERVE XS]

XG Communication

Any communication sent by any means other than Xbox Live, the Xbox App, the Xiled Gaming Club, the Xiled Gaming Website, or the Xiled Gaming Discord Server is not considered XG communication. This includes, but is not limited to Facebook groups, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, KiK, email, text, calls, mail, telepathy, Morse Code, smoke signals or courier pigeons.

Xiled Gaming does not allow any other personally ran communicating on these external outlets due to them not being moderated in the best interest of XG and the privacy of its members. If you use choose to create and use Non-XG Communication you will be removed from the community. Any issue that arises in the community from Non-XG communication will be addressed accordingly.

Add Requests

When putting requests in the help desk, PLEASE make sure to verify the correct spelling is being used for the member's registered name. Usernames should match their Xbox Live Gamertag, no exceptions. We have been getting a lot of requests with names that aren't spelled correctly, or that aren't found, which will result in your request being denied and needing to be resubmitted. You can search to make sure new recruits are registered by using the advanced search feature and typing their gamertag into the "Members" box. If you do not know how to do this, please ask your leadership who will be happy to show you how.

Clan Meetings

Weekly clan meetings are MANDATORY no exceptions. If you're experiencing low attendance consistently it's your responsibility as the General over your clan to communicate that as an issue to your Section Leader to discuss solutions for the problem. As leaders we should look at what we can improve on to boost the attendance rather than not hosting meeting for weeks, that's unacceptable. Every clan isn't perfect so there should be something that can be talked about to better our members experience here in the community.

Clan & Squad Activity

When interacting with your clans and members, you should be noticing things such as how many people are partied up and gaming with each other, if they are actually online on a consistent basis, and whether or not they are actively participating with clan and squad meetings as well as in game. Leaving members on a clan or squad list that are not active will come back to bite you later on, especially when considering things such as squad splits and clan splits. Knowing when members are available to play and attend meetings should be something that you and your leadership are always thinking about so you can tell when something is off.

[XGC SWERVE XS]

All XG members are encouraged to share any issues or ideas through the chain of command and with XC/XI at ANYTIME! The leaders of Xiled Gaming believe in the open-door policy in order to encourage openness and transparency with all members of the community.

and anything else relevant.

We shouldn't be seeing a copy and paste of the General's Meeting Notes, especially when the notes are about things that they aren't responsible for. You are also required to attend at least one of your clan's meetings each week and should be verifying that they post their clan meeting notes and attendance in their clan forum. If not, follow up and find out why that isn't happening.

Generals

Other Community Websites

Members of XG do not need to create profiles on any other community's website with the intent of finding out information about what they are doing. Your time should be spent focusing on your responsibilities as a General and on helping your clan, both by building and training your leadership, and letting the people who chose to leave do the same.

If they decide to return to XG later, let them use the GWG as that is why it is there.

Attitude When Online

When you get online, you should be having a positive attitude, especially in parties with your leadership and clan members. We all get online to game and have fun, and you are an example of that to any members you come in contact with. When you have to step away and handle issues or sensitive matters, if you need a few minutes to compose yourself before you head right back into a party, make sure you take them and decompress. Ask for help if you're feeling like you never get to have any fun when you're online because that should never be the case.

Additionally, when handling any sensitive clan business, make sure you are keeping the people who are in the party limited to your leadership or anyone involved in the situation. Bringing issues up in front of your lower-ranking members should never be happening, especially if it's going to make them want to leave the community as a result. If they're in the community to just have fun and game, be considerate of that and let them do exactly that.

Teaching the Honor Code

When reading the Honor Code to a new recruit, you must read the entirety of it verbatim. New members who come into Xiled Gaming are not aware of our rules and guidelines, so therefore any questions that they have should be answered accordingly so they understand. Under no circumstances do we summarize the Honor Code. Ensure that you know this and anybody who reads new recruits in from your clan, leadership or otherwise..

Clan Meeting Notes

When you do your clan meeting, you should be reading any of these notes that apply to your clan members, and also adding anything that is specifically going on in your clan. Updates on goals, upcoming clan or squad splits, what the game nights for the clan and squad(s) are for the week, and anything else relevant.

We shouldn't be seeing a copy and paste of the General's Meeting Notes, especially when the notes are about things that don't pertain to them, such as Help Desk requests or any General specific tasks that wouldn't apply to them. You must post your clan meeting notes and attendance in your clan forum each week, or if you aren't able to run your clan meeting, one of your captains should be doing that task as part of their training.

[XGC SWERVE XS]

Most transfers are unjustly denied due to personal reasons or emotions. This being said, transfers are never denied unless that transfer will without a doubt cause the community harm. An unhappy member will not only not benefit you, they will also resent you for denying their transfer. This will eventually develop into problems.

Clan & Squad Lists

Your clan list and captain's squad lists are due by 11:59pm EST on Tuesday, March 31st. You need to match your clan list to the usergroup and make sure names are spelled correctly, and that everyone who is a private or higher is registered and added. Also make sure that anyone who has been removed from the clan was also removed from the clan usergroup. If you need updated copies of your usergroup please ask.

If your Captain(s) don't post their list, you need to post it for them and follow up as to why it wasn't done. Lists can be posted up to 3 days early if needed rather than being late so encourage them to post early if need be.

Class Attendance

If you, or any of your leadership sign up for a class, they are expected to show up or communicate if they aren't able to make it. Sending a message on the website, Xbox, or even Discord will help to make sure the class starts on time and if someone isn't able to make it, someone else who has signed up can potentially take their spot. Be courteous and remember that teachers take time out of their day to do these classes to help benefit you and your members.

Goals for this Year

As we are nearly 1/3rd of a way through this year, what progress have you made towards your personal goals as well as your goals for your clan? If you are accomplishing the goals you've set for yourself, and your clan is progressing with their goals, make sure you're giving credit where credit is due. If you aren't reaching your personal goals, have you thought about the reason(s) why? Thinking about why you are or aren't meeting those goals has to be done in order to continue growing and developing as a leader. Not meeting goals isn't always bad, it may mean you need to reevaluate and dial it back to make it more realistic, or you may need to ask for help. We have our rank structure in place for a reason, which is so that you have plenty of resources to ask for help when needed or just to brainstorm ideas with.

When you set goals for yourself as well as your leadership in your clans, make sure you are talking about it regularly so these goals don't fall by the wayside. If someone isn't performing the basic responsibilities of their rank, and can't meet simple goals such as bringing in recruits for their clan or squad, holding meetings and game nights, find out why and ask them if they need help. This will help make your clans stronger and will develop great leaders moving forward.

Meeting Notes 4/5/2020
READING IN RECRUITS
The General has the discretion to determine what members are able to read in new members based on their training. Training should prepare the member to be able to familiarize the recruit with Xiled Gaming (Honor Code, Rank Structure, Division Age Requirements/Gamer Style, etc.), their clan and the process for registering on the website.



Generals

Defining Expectations & Goals

When we as leaders are setting goals, one of the ways we can successfully achieve our goals is by being direct and communicating the outcome you expect. This gives your leadership the opportunity to understand what you expect and how to succeed at it. Growth as a leader is a learning process, so if they need help then we guide them. If they fail to achieve the goal that is set forth, then this is the best opportunity to address how to find a solution and try a different way to accomplish the goal the next time around.

Following Up with Leadership

When you are telling your leadership to do something, make sure you follow up with them and check that it's actually been done. Do not take their word for it, look for the proof that it's been done. If they tell you they brought in 3 new recruits, go look at their clan list and see if it's been updated to include those recruits. When they tell you their squad list has been posted, go to your clan forum and check that it was posted. Doing these quick checks will help train your leadership on what they should be doing on a regular basis, and make your job easier.

Researching Previous Members

If there is a former member out there asking you about coming back to the community, make sure you are doing your research to find what their removal request states. If the removal is for inactivity, they are welcome to return to any clan they choose, with no GWG application required. When you can’t find a removal request for them, hit up your chain of command or an admin to see if they are able to help locate it. If nothing is found, you should be sending them to the GWG so the researchers can find out the reason behind their departure.

Recruiting from the GWG

We do not recruit from the GWG forum at any time, in any clan. Recruiting should be taking place on the Xbox, through LFG posts, game chat, sending messages to recent players, and any other ways you have found that work for you and your clan. If someone's GWG gets approved, you and your XS would be contacted by an XD about them being placed into your clan.

Meeting Notes 4/19/2020
All recruits must be introduced to their squad members and get to know them for the first seven days in the squad. Recruits must be put into squads with members who play similar games and on similar consoles. If a member of a squad switches games or consoles they must be transferred to a different squad or clan if necessary. These transfers will be approved by your section leader.

All recruits must be voted in by the Captain/members of their squad after the seven day trial period.

Meeting Note 4/26/2020
What are the 4 primary components to Xiled Gaming’s proven system?

Honor Code, Rank Structure, Clan Structure and Promotion Requirements

https://www.xiledgaming.com/forum/xi...and-guidelines
Section Leaders

Name Change Approvals

There are still name changes being approved that are too similar to names that have already been approved in the community. As an XS, you are responsible for verifying that the names meet all the requirements of XG. If you do not understand the requirements, please hit up an XD. Also take a look at link below for more information.

http://www.xiledgaming.com/showthrea...mertag-Changes

Summer Time / Inactivity

With the summer months approaching, this should be a good time to find some new members who have more time on their hands. Make sure we are looking to find the next quality members for XG.

This is a great time to make sure that your clan lists and usergroups are up to date. Also, make sure that your members are communicating when they will be inactive due to trips, vacations, or any other life circumstances.

XS Independence

The Section Leader rank is a valuable position in our community. As Section Leaders, confidence while handling issues and communicating with your peers and leadership is a MUST! Meaning, that if an issue arises in another clan of another Section Leader, the initial reaction shouldn't be to directly contact a Division Leader. Communicate the problem with your peer, and work to help fix the problem if needed and ensure it is resolved. Know the difference between staying in your own lane and also working at building relationships with your peers. There is a huge difference between staying in your lane and communicating issues.

When handling issues in your section, make sure that you are taking the time to listen to both sides before making a decision based on one person's perspective. This will save you from potentially making the wrong decision and having to correct it later.

Training Future Leadership

When looking at members for potential future leadership, make sure you have prepared them to the best of your ability before their promotion. Knowing the basic tenets of the community and what needs to be done to meet the goals and expectations of their rank will ensure the transition is smooth for them and they will step into the role with confidence. No matter how long someone has been a leader, there will always be more to learn - just because someone has been in their rank for a long amount of time doesn't mean that someone else couldn't be promoted first, if they are showing more potential and accomplishing goals that are set, they should be recognized accordingly.

Captain's Usergroup Requests

Please make sure that when a captain is no longer in that rank, you are removing them out of the Captain's usergroup. Also, if someone has been promoted to Captain, they need to be added into the usergroup in order to get the banner underneath their name on the website that says Captain. Before a captain is added into the usergroup, make sure that your clan list is updated and lists them as a captain, and that they have also already posted their own squad list, or the request will be denied.

[XGC SWERVE XS]

The price of greatness is responsibility. -Winston Churchill

Continuous personal and professional development is your key to the future.

Professionalism / Attitude

When dealing with issues or just having conversations with your members, always maintain your professionalism and have a positive attitude. If you are unable to present yourself professionally, please remove yourself from the party until you are able to handle the situation calmly and in a professional manner. There is no excuse for handling issues emotionally, the only result that you can expect when you handle a situation emotionally is for the person(s) involved to respond emotionally. Ask for help if you aren't able to approach the situation logically and without emotions running rampant.

This also goes for your professionalism when dealing with your peers - you don't need to like somebody in order to act professionally and treat them with respect. Treat people the way you want to be treated and it will make for a better environment for you and everyone around you.

Team Effort

Everything we do within Xiled Gaming is a Team Effort, regardless of Rank or which squad, clan, section, or division you may be in. Our community is based on the Honor Code, Rank Structure, Rules & Guidelines and Team Work. We pull the rope together and we succeed or fail together, but we always do it as a group. No one person is bigger then the whole, no one loss is more important than all the fun we have together. Here are just a few things we have to do to be the best Community we can be:

*Recruiting: Building our community is everyone's responsibility, no one person can do this alone, make sure you are bringing in good like minded gamers to be a part of the environment you want to create within your clan, with this you will be helping us pull the rope. Just remember that we all are facilitators of fun!

*Training Recruits: It takes a whole clan to be open to new members, invite these potential members to games, welcome them, be a good example, show them the ropes, teach them about the community, and work with them so they can become a valued community member, as we grow its more important that we grow together.

*Clan & Squad Practices: Training together, learning the tactics or strategies for the clan games, getting to know each others playing styles, and learning from each other will prepare us for victory and help us learn from defeat.

*Clan Compete: As a team, everyone should put forth their own best effort in any in-game play, while maintaining the environment of good sportsmanship, regardless of if we win or lose, we always say good game!

*Meetings: Meetings are a great place to share ideas, celebrate successes, discuss any issues, offer feedback on how to improve our clan and squad environments, and vote on new recruits. Remember, we can't make things better without team work. Team Effort is what it is all about. More hands make lighter work!

*Communication: Exchanging thoughts and ideas with the intention of delivering information and goals. Communication is the key to success, not only within the community but also in both professional and personal scenarios. Successful leaders are those marked by their effective use of communication and understanding their followers.

No member gets left behind: ensue all gamers are involved with their squad and other clan members, make sure you and your leadership are reaching out to the ones who are not to find out why and if they can help get them more active and involved.

Do What is Right, Not What Is Easy

Section Leaders

Stay In Your Own Lane

Please remember that any concerns that may involve another section or division are not your concern, and they aren’t something that you should be handling yourself. If you have a concern with another section or something happened with a member in another division, make sure to use your chain of command before handling any issues. Please remember to work with your members as well as your leadership to teach them to use the chain of command if they have a concern or issue with another member or something that’s going on outside of their clan. When using the chain of command, you and your members should be taking concerns up the chain of command, not sideways or down.

People should be comfortable using the open-door policy if their higher leadership isn’t available. If it is something that can be handled the next day and it isn’t a pressing concern, teach them that it’s okay to send a message and get with the person the next day to handle the problem. This will also give them a chance to cool down in case they are getting emotional about whatever is going on.

Clan Research

When talking with your Generals and Captains about their clans, make sure you are digging into the clan and finding out the answers before you ask the questions. This way you’ll know the answer to the question and will be able to verify that your Generals and Captains are completing their responsibilities.

You shouldn’t take what they say at face value, if you know there are issues within the clan and they don’t tell you about them, make sure they know that it’s okay for there to be problems as long as they are acknowledged and addressed. Any positives should also be talked about and you should be giving positive reinforcement just as much as addressing issues.

Clan Compete CDL Domination Tournament

Reminder that our next tournament is coming up in just 6 days on Saturday 7/18, starting at 8:30pm EST – rules, information and sign-ups are available on Clan Compete: Clan Compete

For tournament specific questions, hit up KoG Turdz XS, KoG MamaCoco XS or KoG Caustic. Any general Clan Compete questions can be directed to any Clan Compete staff member.

Website Re-Opening

The website will be opening back up tonight, please hit up your leadership if you have any questions or concerns once you get back onto it. Also please make sure your clans get squad and clan lists posted by midnight on Tuesday, July 14th @ 11:59pm EST and ensure your usergroups matches your clan lists as best you can.

We understand there will be some catching up to do, please do it in a timely manner and ask for assistance if you need it.

Clan Research

When talking with your leadership in your clan, make sure you are digging into their squad and finding out the answers before you ask the questions. This way you’ll already know the answer to the question and will be able to verify that your Captains and LTs are completing their responsibilities.

You shouldn’t take what they say at face value, if you know there are issues within the squad and they don’t tell you about them, make sure they know that it’s okay for there to be problems as long as they are acknowledged and addressed. Any positives should also be talked about and you should be giving positive reinforcement just as much as addressing issues.

[XGC SWERVE XS]

Keep in mind some short-term and long-term goals for your clan. Discuss what directions your captains want to go and give Guidance if needed.,
*Section Updates should be posted at least once every 2 months, and updated as the need arises. This helps keep track of how the clans are progressing.
*Never be afraid to fill out a Leader log, leader logs are only record-keeping, not just for yourself, but the community as a whole.
*Peep to peer relationships are just as important as the working relationship you have with your XD's, Never be hesitant to come to us with anything, good, or bad, big or small, for we are here to help in your development as leaders.
*Communication is simple if you utilize the proper tools., and all tools are provided if you know where to look.

TEAM WORK​

Team Effort Everything we do in an XGC Clan is a Team Effort. The Clan is based on the XGC Honor Code, Rank Structure, and Team Work. We pull the rope together and we succeed or fail together, but we always do it as a group. No one person is bigger than the whole, no one loss is more important...

Tournaments:

As we all know tournaments have been a major request lately, what we need to know is what kind you want. Let's get the word out, find out what our members want as a community-wide tournament. Once you have your findings report to your direct leadership. Anything to bring people together is what like-minded gamers do.


Generals:

General Classes are MANDATORY, if you have not taken the Generals Class lets to get this done ASAP! Please message your XS to get this scheduled for the best time for you and your instructors. Please contact The leadership team if you have a specific time. XGC MINI ME XD, KoG Lotus XD or SYN DESI XD. Thank you

Reminder CAPTAINS CLASSES are MANDATORY as well!!!!!

Basic everyday procedures:

Let's not forget what we have built-in in Xiled Gaming. The rank structure is there for a reason and let's see the game nights and clan meeting weekly for your section. If you aren't able then please have your Captain trained up to take on these responsibilities. Also, there has been a lot of slacking on posting the Clan and Squad lists. Let's make sure this is being done, please. Also, make sure your User Group matches your clan list. Your XS will be talking to you if not done so be prepared.

Recruiting:

Recruiting is the main way to grow your clans. If you are stagnant and not looking or trying to recruit you are not only hurting yourself but your clan as well. Let's get this going and start training up leadership. It is simple if you bring in a recruit, assign them a Sergeant to help them answer any questions they might have. This helps the Sergeant be prepared for the LT position and helps the communication within the clan.

TEAM WORK​

Team Effort Everything we do in an XGC Clan is a Team Effort. The Clan is based on the XGC Honor Code, Rank Structure, and Team Work. We pull the rope together and we succeed or fail together, but we always do it as a group. No one person is bigger than the whole, no one loss is more important...

[XGC SWERVE XS]

The way to success is to focus on goals, not obstacles

Name Changes

For a long time, Xiled Gaming was almost always Xbox only. With the changes made a while ago, Xiled Gaming now has members on Xbox, PC, and Play Station. When a General submits a name change, not only should they list the current name,
the rank and the names wanted, but they should also list what console the member plays on.
Should that member play on multiple consoles, the console with the lowest number of characters allowed should take precedence for name length.
Which are as follows:
Xbox allows 12 characters.
Play Station allows 16 characters.
PC allows 20 characters

Discouragement within leadership

Deal with discouragement before it happens by being a positive leader. When you start to feel discouraged remember not to show this to everyone it will trickle down in the clan. When you feel like your clan has grown stagnant, Spend more time affirming and less time correcting. Give public acknowledgement, gratitude, and praise. Be available.
Three things to remember when in a rut are
remembering why you are doing this!
getting help from peers,
don't quit

Open discussion

Ask yourself these questions:
Where do you find encouragement?
How do you encourage others?
How do I know when I'm getting discouraged?
How can I overcome discouragement?
Personal reflection is never a bad thing it strengthens us as leaders.




Future Leadership:

As leaders, we want the best for our members. It is our job to train and teach each person below us (regardless of rank) how to better do their job and hopefully propel them forward in the future. Identifying this early is key! Don't wait until a position in leadership opens up before you start looking to fill that spot...you should have your eye on one, if not more, members to potentially move up into leadership roles! This is the way to build a strong foundation within your clan(s)! With good communication and training, you shouldn't have to worry about leadership!


Clan Primary Games

Your clan's primary games should stay updated consistently as the clan changes, especially with new games coming out. Get an Update Clan in tonight so everything can be brought up to date. There shouldn't be 5 main games in a clan at any point, narrow it down to 3 or less.


Promotions

Just because you reach all requirements to be promoted to the next rank does not mean you will be promoted right away. Promotions are earned not given. If you are seeking a promotion, work for it! The leadership notice it! Training Leadership As a Section Leader, your main goal should be to ensure that your Generals are knowledgeable about their responsibilities and that they feel comfortable asking questions when they aren't. However, if you are spending time training someone on the same thing over and over again, and it doesn't seem to be getting through to them, you need to figure out why that is. Whether it's that you need to find a different way to teach them or ask for assistance from a peer or XD to get this done, it needs to be a priority. If someone isn't capable of learning or retaining information, sometimes that leads to making a difficult decision and putting someone into the rank that is capable of learning. Keep in mind that if someone can't learn it themself, how could they teach it to anyone else in the ranks below them?

Leaderlogs:

A leader log should consist of the who, what, when and where. and yes sometimes the how, You should never do a leader log based on personal opinions. When doing a leader log you should always be professional and think with a calm level head. remember the information must be true and accurate. The leader log should not be a transcript of every conversations that took place, but a concise recap of the events and pertinent information of the issue. Double check, did you cross every T and dot every I?, is what your trying to convey legible for all to understand? Knowing how to writing a accurate leader log is a must as a leader, if you have any questions never be afraid to ask for assistance from a peer, or a Division leader. No question is a Dumb question." We pull the rope together.”

Also it's important that when having a conversation of importance, that you have a peer or peers with you for a witness, Witnesses are there only to observe, not interact unless advised by the leader conducting the interview., in some situations a Division leader or higher may need to be present, if so they are always ready to assist you based on their availability.

Below are just a few examples of the who, what , where.

Title: ( Members Gamertag)
The Date/time or incident:
What transpired:
List relevant witnesses
Resolutions or actions taken.
Date of follow .

If there is information to add to the leader log after the follow up for the original event, add another thread below the first post.

Why do we do Leaderlogs?

Simple Record keeping !
The more accurate the leader log, the less confusion on any incident later.

Be the Leader our members deserve:

One thing everyone should love about being a leader in Xiled Gaming is being the face of the community for our members, And striving to show the way in our training methods to ensure the future of our beloved community. train them!, not only on a professional level, but also on a personal one as well, our leadership pipelines are the future, so lets set ourselves up for success.
We should always be striving on becoming the kind of leader that people would follow voluntarily, even if you had no title or position.

Recruiting Tips:

Way too often we hear people say that recruiting is hard. We all know that recruiting isn’t like it was back on BO2, but recruiting doesn’t have to be hard. When it comes to recruiting think outside of the box. Simple things like having members invite friends that are not in a clan to your game nights can bring in new members. When those friends come to the game nights and have fun they become potential recruits. When playing a multiplayer game make sure you’re in game chat and try to have room for randoms. If you’re in a party then you can’t communicate with the other players on your team. We always say that communication is key and it’s the same way with recruiting. Recruiting doesn’t have to be hard when you’re out having fun gaming in those multiplayer lobbies the randoms that are put on your team they can always become a potential recruit. If you run a match and there’s a really good player on the team that is doing call outs and seem like a fit for your clan, after that match is over go back to the lobby send them an invite and see if they want to run with you. Make recruiting fun, not challenging. We want you to be having fun no matter what your doing and recruiting can be fun too if you think outside of the box and get creative with it.

SETTING GOALS IS THE FIRST STEP IN TURNING THE INVISIBLE INTO THE VISIBLE.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT
Sexual Harassment is defined as behavior characterized by the making of unwelcome and inappropriate sexual remarks or physical advances in a workplace or other professional or social situation. What are sexually harassed examples? Verbal harassment of a sexual nature, including jokes referring to sexual acts or sexual orientation. Unwanted touching or physical contact. Unwelcome sexual advances. Discussing sexual relations/stories/fantasies at work, school, or in other inappropriate places.

Xiled Gaming has ZERO TOLERANCE FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT! No member should ever be subjected to any harassment whatsoever. Every division's Honor Code state in Section VIII that:

XGC
Honor Code violations consist of trash talking, t-bagging, discrimination, racism, sexism, harassment, illegal drugs, cheating, poaching, squad de-ranking, or any other aggressive behavior toward fellow online gamers.

KoG
Honor Code violations consist of trash talking, t-bagging, discrimination, racism, sexism, harassment, illegal drugs, cheating, poaching, squad de-ranking, or any other aggressive behavior toward fellow online gamers.

SYN
Honor Code violations consist of discrimination, racism, sexism, harassment, illegal drugs, cheating, poaching, squad de-ranking, or any other overly aggressive behavior toward fellow online gamers.

We as leaders should be enforcing these rules to ensure that our members have a safe place where they can get online to game and have fun, not to be degraded, harassed, or discriminated in any way whatsoever.

NAME CHANGE REQUESTS
When doing a name change request always look in all three divisions if the name is already taken within another division. We were told it can't be a past leader or current leaders or even remotely close to a name already within any of the divisions.

LEADERSHIP MEETINGS
Remember being in leadership meetings that it should be only leadership in there. Sergeants and below should not be listening to what is going on in the Clan/Section/Division. If it is pertaining to a situation in your clan, it does not look good to spread it to the lower ranks mostly recruits that you are trying to bring in. Be cautious about this and this is when the party should be locked down so no one will join.
Along with party being locked down. If you are in leadership your party should be open at all times unless you are handling an issue.

XILED GAMING PROMOTION REQUIREMENTS 2023
NO Promotion is just given for meeting the time requirements. Promotions must be earned by fulfilling all the responsibilities of each rank. Promotions are not asked for; promotions are earned. Because you have been in your position for a long time does not guarantee you a promotion. If you have completed these requirements, please speak with a leader. If you are not maintaining the requirements of your position, please understand you are hurting your clan, the community, and your friends. If this happens you will be relieved of your leadership position. It isn't personal. We can't have inactive or ineffective leaders hold back what our members need.

XILED GAMING DISCORD
The Xiled Gaming Discord is a discord created for all members of XG as well as non-members. Prior to joining the discord, each member is asked whether or not they accept the Server Rules. Server Rules consists of 14 rules plus Terms of Service that each member should be abiding by when posting in the channels. By accepting these rules, it means that you are expected to follow them. The discord is a place where members can communicate and share the same ideas and intergrade with each other. It is also a place where new members can join to meet others within the same clan/section/division/community. Remember to keep the community discord conversations PG-13.

[XGC SWERVE XS]

Leadership is an action, not a position."

Recycling Leadership

We do NOT recycle leadership. Just because someone has previously been in leadership does not mean they are the right person for leadership currently. Evaluate all members the same, regardless of past experience or knowledge, and see who earns the promotion by being a positive example in the clan and moving the clan forward. If you allow your judgment to be influenced by friendships and what people tell you instead of letting their actions speak for themselves, you and your leaders will have trained your future leadership to be the same way. If you don't know what you should be looking for when promoting leaders, ask questions and use your chain command or the open door if needed.

Open Communication & the Open Door Policy
The open door policy is in place to be used by members to hit up leaders within the community to discuss any ideas or issues they may be having without consequence. While we encourage the open communication, it is important to make sure we are not abusing this policy and we are taking the opportunity to have the hard conversations with our direct leadership.

No Man Left Behind:

All leadership needs to be making sure that no one is left behind in the clan. Leadership should be gaming with the members of the clan. Captains should be gaming with members of their squads. If someone isn’t gaming with the squad/clan, don’t just assume that they are inactive. Reach out to them because a lot of times the reason that they are not gaming with the squad/clan is because no one is reaching out to them. If you have someone that is not playing the same games as the clan, please find them a clan that is playing the same games as them. Our goal is for our members to all have someone to game with and sometimes that means finding them a new home so that they can also enjoy being in the community.

Summer Months:

It is quickly coming up on summer, which poses two issues that need to be addressed. First off, the end of the school year is quickly approaching, which means that there will be a lot more people on the games, providing us with new recruiting opportunities, but beware that many of them may be underage for our community. Be vigilant while recruiting, and please remember to properly vet your possible new recruits. The second thing that everyone needs to be prepared for during the summer is clan members taking vacations. If you are planning on taking a vacation, please remember to message your leadership so that they know that you are not inactive. It has happened that someone goes on vacation forgets to notify leadership, and they get removed for inactivity. All pf this boils down to the proper execution of communication.

Creating Activity

Probably the biggest question heard by Generals(Clan Leaders) and Captains(Squad Leaders) is how to increase activity. Often times, you will see a clan member who may not play a lot with the clan and/or never makes it few if any meetings. While there are many ways that are done now(Meetings, Game Nights, Clan Parties), one way that is often overlooked may also one of the easiest. When you see them online, ask for an invite to their party and/or game. Play with them, and make sure that others play with them. When you go to them, and you put forth the effort, then they are more apt to reciprocate those actions. The Bottom Line, Have fun, play games.
