Is your faction doing good at promoting Force Users?

[Tefka]

Let's hear about the good ones so I can secretly judge the bad ones. What makes your faction so good at promoting Force Users? Do you feel like they're doing a good job? Are there some changes you'd like to see with how your faction promotes Force Users?

Let us know.

Well in the Silver Sanctum. [member="Coci Heavenshield"] is generally giving the promotions and asking about different ones. Sometimes I feel she might not do it often enough but if she asks in private then it just might not be visible. I would say the experience has been good so far but more observation can help for improvement.

In the Republic, aside from an admin giving a promotion based on"a technicality he has to be a padawan." It has been good. Suravi knows when to deligate for master votes. Though the general disposition should be improved as a number don't want to do the work and just have rank because they wrote they are x years old.

[member="Shmi Labooda"] is open to hearing it out and sometimes needs encouragement but she comes through.

*Checks to see if [member="Audren Sykes"] is a Master yet.*

*He is.*

Ah. Then the SSC is doing just fine.

.. Actually I saw his thread tracker in the GA forums during my quarterly review of thread trackers. He had just recently posted his.

But I knew he was more active in SSC. So I nominated in SSC.

I personally think that the GA is doing well.

What has to be put into consideration is that it is a two way street with factions and members. Yes, having a presence and activity does bring the thought to the forefront of the mind that, "hey, why isn't this guy promoted? I could have sworn he was a knight / master."

However, sometimes people get busy -- so having active thread trackers posted in the forum that are updated helps faction staff and other members be aware of the progression of any character. If there isn't any, then it makes it really hard to go -- oh wow, he's been here for a while and look at all that roleplay! let's promote him!

"But I have my tracker in my bio!" Great! That does help out -- but rarely do people actually go diving into someones' bio to review their threads.

Keeping up to date from both sides of the coin - members and faction staff - is what can keep a healthy promotion balance.

I think the Kathol Outback is doing pretty decent at meeting our members' needs. We get quite a few people who want to delay Knighthood or Mastery for story reasons, plus the faction isn't as FU-centric as some, so promotions don't come up a whole lot. I'll make a reminder that anyone who's getting missed should contact me or another FA.

We have just overhauled our FU side of things so it is more user friendly.
I'll let you know how well we are doing when we have some more force users...yeah...
