RANKING COMMITTEE ANNOUNCEMENTS

Then we will extend the voting pweriod by another 24 hours

Would it be possible to get clarrification on what you mean by \"this rank may be awarded based on previous experience\"? Meaning what kind of previous experience counts? Age certainly cannot be a factor, so I'm just curious what will be used in this case, before I vote.

DK

Previous training in jediism, length of time practicing jediism. Those kind of factors.

It seems like a fairly solid system. I vote yay.

Sounds fair enough, assuming everyone is honest. I'll vote yay as well.

DK

i vote yay.

Everything being equal, I vote YAY. A suggestion if I may though. The people that are given rank based on previous experience should be given a probational period and be observed for behavior and knowledge suited to the rank and title they wish to hold within the temple. This would insure as best can be done that the claims of training and attainment of levels or indeed true as our actions reflect who we truly are. Just a thought.

And a valid one at that. I will adress this with the committee and Br. john when he returns and discuss the possibility. Thank you Master Kyo Den for your insight here

If I may, I suggest a longer voting time, for those of us who can't get on everyday. I must admit if this would have began over the weekend, I probably would have missed it entirely. In all fairness to all members, atleast 72 hours I would say, its ultimately up to the committee of course, it just seems best.

DK

Have a good weekend everyone I'm out till Monday

This is an excellent Idea and will be kept in advisement for future matters of this nature. However, In order to expedite this process and allow the committee to complete its task with the interest of especially our newer members in mind regarding placement and training the timeframe will stand. Once this has been approved or denied then the committee will be able to more quickly provide the members of this church the promised database of member rankings and availability for training.

yay

this looks great to me br tom.

Great wording and great work with the follow-up posts to iron out the final bugs. I whole-heartedly support the committee and process and give my resounding \"yay\". May the Force be with the committee and with us all.

If I may, I'd like to make a suggestion. When it comes to voting, why not move the proposed issue that is to be voted on to the general catagory so it may be viewed more readily by the general populas of our temple. I'm not sure how many of our members acutally view the Ad Hoc Committees of the Order page. I'm sure the General is hit up by almost everyone.

Voting is Over and this system has no been adopted by the church. As such the members of the committee take the following Rank:

Chairperson - Sr. Knight Tom Whiteman

Committee member - Master Neaj Pa Bol

Committee member - Master Nick Nash

Committee Member - Sr. Knight Dan

Committee Member - Knight Apprentice HesinRaca


We will now begin the task of compiling the database which will contain all members ranks and who is available to teach. This may take us some time but will be worth the wait.

Jeff, you may see all of the latest forum activity on the home page on the bottom right hand side of the page. However, I urge all members to check the committee forums regularly. This is an important part of the development of this church and as such everyone should be keeping up. MTFBWYA

that should be *Now Been Adopted* sorry about that.

I'll probably regret this,LOL, But...

In order to facilitate this process I am going to begin by asking every member who is not a member of this committee to send me a PM telling me about yourself. What previous experience might you have? How long have you been practicing and where else were you or are you aa member? these are the types of information i want included and this info will be used in the consideration of rank. Thank you all and MTFBWY

Yup, regretting it already....If you have already sent these to me then you do not need to send them again.

Those of you who have not ,
Instead of the PM send these descriptions of yourself and your previous training to my email address

twsoundsoff@gmail.com

Thank you and MTFBWYA

br tom maybe you should have brought the other members into the pm thing, so we as a committee could have helped you lol. but yeah, and br Jeff if you notice when you log in the sections of the forum that have new posts that you haven't seen, the word new comes up on red. so when you see ad hocs committee in red that means there is something new, alright brother MTFBWY

I am actually just going to gather the information for us so that when we meet next we have it all in one location and can begin with all of it all together. easier for everyone

sounds good and time consuming so we better have a the meeting when everyone can meet for at least an hour.
