Character Promotion Rules

2025-04-23T08:57:05Z

Hound:

==Hirings and Promotions==
This will be enforced under the sweeping pretense of Metagame.
#You can hire citizens into your faction at the starting rank. i.e Grenadier, Polizeiunterdiener etc.
#You can promote someone 1 once every 24 hours if they are being promoted to a Junior Enlisted rank.
#You can promote someone 1 once every 48 hours if they are being promoted to a Non-Commissioned Officer rank.
#You can promote someone 1 once every 72 hours if they are being promoted to a Commissioned Officer or General Officer rank.
#Upon being fired/removed from your position you can acquire a new position around the same rank as your previous one only 24 hours from that event.

==High-Ranking Character Restrictions==
#This policy is rather simple. In an attempt to thwart users who purposely stack characters of high rank/position simply for bragging rights, a policy will be implemented which prevents such directly. As a hard limit, players will only be permitted ONE character of the rank of Colonel or above (Chefinspektor+/Oberst+/Unterstaatssekretär+/Regimentsleiter+).
#The above policy should not affect many players. Those who attempt to ignore the above policy will have one of their Colonel+ characters subject to un-whitelisting, or in extreme cases, char-banning. You may not grandfather-clause your multiple GO characters through this policy.

==FAQ==
'''Q:''' What ranks can we whitelist people into factions at?‎ 
'''A:''' Only the bottom TWO ranks (I.E. Gehilfe/Wehrmann/Grenadier, etc). The purpose of this is to create a penalty for getting PKed, as well as reduce the advantage for players who OOCly know the higher-ups in a faction.

'''Q:''' My faction only hires Unteroffizier/Leutnant+, can we hire at those ranks?‎ 
'''A:''' In these cases, you will have to rely upon transfers from bottom-level departments, as such organizations would realistically, or to create bottom-level jobs of your own. A functional officer cadet system would, however, be accepted should one be properly established.

'''Q:''' I really need to hire person X for this leadership position, as my faction is empty and the gaps simply cannot be filled. What can I do?‎ 
'''A:''' Any Super Administrator may make exceptions to this policy on a case-per-case basis. Contact a Super Administrator to resolve the issue.

'''Q:''' Will deputies have to take over for their bosses? Does this mean I cannot be promoted unless the guy in the slot above me dies?‎ 
'''A:''' No. Rank jumps of around 2 ranks for instance are acceptable under the proper circumstances, and ONLY with the approval of a member of UA, given it isn't a repeated occurrence (the same individual receiving repeated 2 rank promotions will be punished). Individuals or deputies may be bypassed for promotion for a more suitable, and possibly slightly lower ranking, individual.

'''Q:''' I got fired from my job/resigned in the past, can I come back at the same rank in the future?‎ 
'''A:''' Yes, if you receive approval from a Super Administrator+ you can return at a high commission.

Hound:

Administrative Threads should only contain relevant information from individuals involved in the situation such as:
*The Staff Member who performed the ban.
*Player(s) who were involved with the individual when they were banned.
*The individual who was banned.

If any individual is found to be commenting on Administrative Threads without being involved, they will be given a forum warning and an eventual ban if repeated.
Administrative Threads Include:
*Ban Appeals
**For non-permanent bans
*PK Appeals
*Flag Appeals
*Staff Reports
*Player Reports

Do NOT reply, or 'bump', threads that haven't received a reply in over 30 days.
*Threads in the Suggestions forum may be bumped beyond this threshold ONLY if you have relevant input to add. (Not just "+1" or "I agree!")
