Ive heard about you guys for a while now, haven't applied to join due to mainly my internet, and that I have problems with the organization stuff (always been more of a mercenary :biggrin.gif:)
Im a co-owner on Mystery Project, and I skimmed through the thread and didn't see one, but I can work on a combat skin for you guys. I got the basic design but don't know what to do for Camouflage just yet.
I would like to still be helpful or an ally even if i don't join due to net or being unable to adapt to the rank/command system.

Heh...is it as bad as Roze's net? :tongue.gif:
As for uniform skins, we have tons on our forum that have been suggested...Yours could be added there too if you join :tongue.gif:
Minecraft Name: M1_Mercenary
Time Zone: UTC - 5 Eastern Standard Time
Why you want to join: To have fun with friends, build and such
How you heard of us: from Geilnor and Darkthero, and from seeing all of the RMM members in Mystery_Project
Battalion you plan to join: 2nd, I think :biggrin.gif:
I'm curious; How do you assign ranks when SMP isn't even released yet? Is there something in particular that you're looking at which decides if you're qualified enough to be of a higher rank?
One can be promoted in this clan a couple of ways, the first is the most simple: loyalty, if you have been with the clan for a long amount of time, and have been active, you can get promoted for it. The second is building, usually quality over quantity, but sometimes if you do a repetitious task that helps out, it is possible to be promoted.
TL;DR: mostly people are promoted for building structures of exceeding awesomeness of their rank.
Hope that cleared promotions a bit
(Don't ask me why that would need a TL;DR)
People are promoted on loyalty, activity, skill, and intelligence.
Being in the clan a long time can very slowly get you promoted.
Being active in the clan is much quicker, if the officers see you a lot, you are more likely to get promoted.
Skill in creative building can get your promoted, especially if you are in the 4th Battalion.
Making intelligent suggestions, having good ideas, actively participating in discussions, that's the fastest way to get promoted.
I'm honored to present LuciferZ' First Clan Address to this forum, due to a small issue with his account and posting. This speech is both motivational and passionate, displaying the R.M.M.s true goals and philosophies through LuciferZ' superb writing. Without further ado, the First Clan Address:
Men and women of the Royal Minecraft Militia! I come before you today to speak of the future of our clan, and the future of Minecraft. We stand on the threshold of Multiplayer Survival, the greatest update that Minecraft has ever known. The greatest update that perhaps it ever will! With its coming, everything will change. We leave behind the free, creative, artistic utopia of Creative Mode and enter into the competitive and dangerous world of Survival!
Survival Multiplayer brings to our game a new set of problems unlike any faced in Creative. Death! Combat! The need for resources, shelter, and tools! The bite of ice and crackle of fire, the dangers that lurk in every shadow. With these problems, we leave behind the one crime of Creative, we leave behind griefing, and instead face things like theft, murder, and arson.
The great Declaration of Independence of the United States of America says that all men are born with three unalienable rights: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. I know that all honorable men know this to be true. These are things we are all born deserving! And so it remains in Minecraft. All people should be allowed to play with these rights. All Minecrafters deserve access to a peaceful existence.
But already there are those who plan to take those rights away. People who wish to kill and take Life. People who wish to enslave and oppress, and take Liberty. There are those who in the Pursuit of their own selfish Happiness, will destroy the Happiness of others. Bandits, raiders, thieves and murderers. This cannot be allowed!
When you joined this clan, you submitted yourself to our order, our discipline! You gave up some of your freedom. And the Royal Minecraft Militia has taken your freedom so that we may grant it to others! We serve not ourselves, but a higher purpose! We serve ALL of Minecraft, we serve to protect the rights of all peaceful players. By our discipline, we will defeat all of the chaos inherent to evil. With our training, our regimen, our order and efficiency, we will stamp out tyranny and unrighteousness. We shall bring the great sword of Justice to bear against those who seek to take away what all men are God-given.
Where there is freedom threatened, we shall fight in its defense! Where there is honor denied, we shall uphold it! Where there is dignity oppressed, we will defend it. Where the is peace, we shall preserve it! In this cause we will become the greatest of clans, and our ranks will be respected across every server. This is the great purpose that we shall all serve.
There will be wars, there will be combat. We will fight and kill so that others do not have to. But never shall we kill for the sake of killing, never will we wage war for the sake of war. Our clan has always punished members who grief, but you have not known punishment until you have broken our laws in Survival. Straying from the righteous path will result in being dishonorably discharged, you will never be allowed to return, your name will be publicly blacklisted as a betrayer of our trust. Willful evil will not be tolerated as long as I hold this position. We thirst for justice, but we shall not quench ourselves with the blood of innocents! As we pass through the valley of shadows, we will not fall into darkness! We shall take the mountain of evil and break it down into a million cubic bricks, and make from it a citadel of Freedom! For your adherence to our ideals, you will be rewarded with advancement through our ranks, brotherhood amongst our members, and the respect and adoration of the players that we protect. For your adherence, you shall be made into heroes.
It is my hope that all of you understand our purpose. It is my hope that you all agree with this cause. All who remain in our ranks are expected to fight for it. The first days of Survival Multiplayer, it's said, will be a bloodbath. But into this dark age, we bring a light of hope. Be it a torch or a flamethrower, we will bring the light.
I hate to burst your bubble, but the unalienable rights "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" are listed in the Declaration of Independence, not the U.S. Constitution :/ Otherwise, very well written! I feel motivated already!
