Hey everyone, Just giving you a quick heads up, I am still around and checking the forums :). I've started my first year in University and so far it has been incredibly busy (and challenging). That is the reason why I haven't been posting much. Glad to see there's still a lot of activity here and that we're still get new info on ME3 at a steady rate :D.

With the release of ME3 getting closer it might be fun to get some more people on our boards. I checked our associated games and noticed Mass Effect 3 PC and PS3 wheren't listed (or perhaps just not showing). Furthermore our union isn't shown as "related union" on any Mass Effect game in the games sections. I wonder if we could contact an admin or mod to get this fixed?

I know GS isn't giving unions a lot of attention anymore as became painfully obvious when the union pages where skipped with the website overhaul, but it would still be great to get some more people over here.

The problem is that only around 10 games can be associated with a union. I'll remove all the DLC stuff and put in only the core games on all platforms, and see if we show up more then...

EDIT: Also, it seems the union leveling system was brought back on GS. I noticed our union has gone up several percent of its current rank in the past few days. And seeing as our union wasn't exactly around for as long as other unions, it may be problematic trying to get ourselves to show on the ME game pages

We could probably try to contact the adminstrators for GameSpot and see what they can do for us.

Ah, I didn't know you could only associate with 10 games. As for our Union not being around as long, you'd think since we're the only Union dedicated specifically to Mass Effect we should at least show up as one of the two associated unions.

There are two topics that I would like to bring up for further discussion in this post.

First, I'd like to continue the stickied thread cleanup conversation we we're having recently in the off topic thread. I'd like to recommend that the Afterlife VIP and Cerberus Databanks threads be unstickied. The Databanks haven't been touched for a year and a half and while the VIP thread has a long history it isn't seeing much love these days.

Second, I'd like to recommend that both rallydrifter and Hirasugi be promoted to officers here at the Mass Effect Universe. They both frequently add valuable content and have been doing so for quite a while. They both are more than deserving In My Humble Opinion.

Discuss.

The officer position has become more of a reward for active posters but I guess that's ok :).

Another suggestion, perhaps it's a good idea to send a union wide telegram. We could inform people about the news, website and femshep trailer, and of course Tuesday's demo. More importantly we could encourage them to join us on the forums again ;).

Thats a good idea Lone_Warrior. And also mention about the demo to those who don't know about it.

That's a fine idea indeed. Fire ahead! :)

I have no problem promoting Rally and Hirasugi, but we should wait until the other officers have a chance to vote. Perhaps you could mention this to them in the telegram

Do you think we should make a new banner N7, to help celebrate Mass Effect 3 when it launches, this banner doesnt have Commander Shepard on it.

It does, it's just a female commander Shepard ;). Anyways I still quite like this banner and we haven't had it for that long. Nevertheless if we get some more artwork/high quality screenshots at launch I'll see what I can do :).

Due to the new method of officer recruitment, your previous applications are nothing (sorry, don't mean to make it sound that bad :) ).

You will have to apply again under these new rules:

  • You must be a regular poster.
  • You must be a veteran of Mass Effect, with at least two clearances of the game.
  • You must be a veteran of Mass Effect 2, with at least two clearances also.
  • You must be approved by the majority of other officers, not just me or a few of them.
  • You must be at least level seven on GameSpot.


When you have all these, you will be tested on your knowledge by random Mass Effect related questions. Of course, there might be an exception if you contribute massively to our union.

I would now like to ask all officers to comment on these new terms and perhaps make further suggestions.

Hey officers, never really saw that you guys were talking about promoting me.

All I have to say is that im thrilled that you would think that I'm officer worthy, and if you do decide to make me an officer I would be up to the duty.  hehe :roll:  (lame joke, sorry)
