Trialers, you get to decide who else becomes trialers. That means that if you wish to approve someone for the rank PM a general. Once a majority have given approval for someone they will become a trialer. Pick carefully

Just read through the new updates regarding the chat. Overall they look good, but at the same time I feel there are a few things that just aren't sitting right with me just yet.
Firstly, the 2300 total level requirement - I get that we want well rounded players to be in the group, doing floors. However at the same time, a player's skill in dungeoneering (that is, how good they are at floors) isn't accurately represented by their total level. Look at me, for instance. While I might only have 2100 total (I've been grandfathered in to the new system), that doesn't necessarily mean I'm not good at dungeoneering, and that I'm not good at KABDE. Sure, I might not be able to open every single door in a dungeon, but I know the style, know the overall weaknesses of monsters (although then again, EoC has screwed things around for all of us knowing what things are weak to and how to attack them, but we're learning
), and can perform well in a floor. I can do all of that with a slightly lower total level than most in the group.
According to the recruitment thread, it states:
"2300 total level - We want well rounded people who have the ability to do most skill doors and rooms. Our average total level is 2425. "
I get that, but at the same time, isn't the keyer usually the one who opens 90% of doors? Its easy enough to move the GT or have someone run over very quickly who has the stat to open the door, so while I don't mind a total level requirement I do think that 2300, which, if a player has 100 dungeoneering and exactly 2300, comes out to having about level 91 for each stat, is a bit high. Perhaps 2300 should be required for those wanting to help to lead floors rather than for those who will fill roles in the floor that may not necessarily require every stat to be 90+. I think that might be a little bit more fair.

Apple, as far as I know, new people may take the trial as many times as necessary to get four passed. Of course that may have changed and I'm reading everything wrong (gimme a break, been studying all day >****
, but I really don't think that's the case. :p Overall though, I agree with all of the changes except the 2.3k total one, not that I have any say in it.

*rereads...* Yep, misread a slight detail when I wrote the second post. Disregard that one (what I get for trying to do about 5 things at once while writing that post).
"gimme a break, been studying all day >****;"
Lol...about to start the next batch of work to be done for later this weekend, so knowing me, this will be another night of me with books open all over the place until about 4 or 5am.
