![]() Hi MIM Squaders, I realize that a lot of the things discussed in our last meeting have not been acted upon as of yet. This is partially my fault. I have been extremely busy lately and have not had a lot of time to commit to the squad over the past couple of weeks. To make up for it, I plan on releasing a few changes to our website this week. Some of which will include an enhanced and easier way of signing up for the e-newsletter, a donation submission form, and a few other changes. As for the forum challenges and the emoji escapes, they will be released as soon as we have enough funds and prizes. Last month, only two people participated in nominating someone for the kindness award. The reason these two people that were nominated have not been rewarded is because I'd like to see a little more people participate in submitting nominations before we give that big of a prize out. That said, those two votes will be carried over to this month and will NOT be annulled. Now, here are a few new things I'd like us to touch base on for this meeting. As always, feel free to add any off-topic ideas or concerns in your comments below. All my love, SweetTea Top Donator Badges We are a little low on donations from representatives. I know plenty of the staff have offered up their earnings, but I think having some donations from actual representatives would be good so that our events do not weigh so heavily on the shoulders of the staff who are already busy with their own MIM Squad responsibilities. This is precisely why I have come up with the idea of awarding top donator badges. ANY representative including staff are eligible to win one of these forum badges. Below is a preview of what they look like, designed by our very own Marnetti! There will be three badges total and only our three top donators of the month will be able to wear them. By the following month, donations will be "erased" and the next top donators will be awarded the badge. Representatives may maintain their badge if they donate high enough to be a top donator again. Soon we will have an area on the website that will show the donator rankings that will be updated each month. ![]() ![]() ![]() Committees So far, the only activity I have seen in any of the committees is the Event Planning committee. I would like to suggest that we keep the same process for joining a committee the same. However, I think anyone who wants to participate in any or all of the committees should feel free to do so. Since we are a squad, we work as a team. I value everyone's thoughts, opinions and ideas equally. That said, I feel we should leave the committees as open as possible while still having staff members in charge of making sure things are going accordingly. This means that we can read about what's going on and participate in whatever committee we feel like participating in. In fact, it is encouraged that we do so, that way no committee is being neglected and every area of our squad is staying strong. MIM Squad Announcement Logo Speaking of announcements, I believe it would be appropriate to include our logo and "MIM" icon with every announcement we post on the main forums. This would just show a little more continuity and professionalism for the squad. Quest Event I hereby officially name this month, August 2015 as the month we will host our very first MIM Squad Quest event! I am going to make a post in the Event Planning committee forum shortly and I'd like to encourage everyone to please participate there! New MIM Squad Invitation Announcement Who remembers when I posted this initial announcement: http://forums.myvmk.com/threads/myvmk-integrity-movement-mim-squad.50551/http://forums.myvmk.com/threads/myvmk-integrity-movement-mim-squad.50551/? I posted this in order to recruit people when I first began forming the squad. To say the least, the post definitely got a lot of hype and criticism. The main criticism had to do with the fact that people thought we were just a glorified clique. We also initially started with terms that involved a person being removed from the squad for poor behavior. Since we no longer have this, I have heard very little negative feedback about our squad, if any. I think it is time that we make another post much like the one in the link above, inviting players to join the squad. Since we have been holding more events, we have become a pretty well-known group. I also think that it would be a good idea to include in the beginning post, all of the links from prior event announcements that we have posted on the main forums. This way, people can see what fun the community has had from the events we have hosted. *Update* Below is the draft for the MIM Squad Announcement on the main forums. Please let me know what you think. Don't hesitate to let me know if you think something should added, removed or reworded. ![]()

Haha, that is why a rough draft is always a good idea! I have uploaded another (hopefully) final draft of our announcement. |
