I've Killed for Less Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Hello, I was just curious, when you get to the point where you are ready for a cabal promotion, but do not get auto-promoted, are you supposed to write an application for promotion, or just wait for the leader/immortal to promote you. I am not sure what the proper order of operations for this is now, as I haven't played in quite a few years. I also don't want to do something that will make it longer before I get promoted to trusted. I appreciate the feedback!! Thanks!!! -Charles IKFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insepiddeception Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Your immortal will promote you when it is your time. I wouldnt suggest sending a note actively asking for a promotion, the answer can sometimes be ugly. Just remain active, engaged, and RP notes are excellent ways to show them youre here for the long haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evangelion Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Things you should do to get promoted: 1) Be as active as you can (and I don't mean just logging hours inside or in front of your cabal) 2) RP as often as possible 3)Try to maintain a positive PK record (i.e. - Don't take stupid deaths) 4) Defend your cabal regardless of the odds (if you're outnumbered, stick to your guns-- however, don't forget #3) 5) Take initiative within your clan-- every IMM wants a full cabal, so appease their vanity and start recruiting) Things you should not do to get promoted: 1) Write a note or say to your immortal that you'd like/think you deserve a promotion. 2) Gang or tag-team other players (or any other PK behavior that is frowned upon/illegal) 3) Repeatedly log out when your cabal is under attack or your standard is captured (emphasis on repeatedly-- real life happens, but it shouldn't happen every time you're outgunned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egreir Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 What is a cabal? Okay, I know what they are. This was just a poke in my own eye since I feel like I'm never even going to rank past 30 let alone get to 50 or even dream of being in a cabal. Oh the wonderful joys of loving to hate this game <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do all of these things (except for the things you said to NOT get promoted), aside from number 5. That is a helpful hint that I will be sure to do from now on out. Thank you very much!!! -Charles IKFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deykari Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I've found myself plenty of times getting on-the-spot promotions from when the odds are stacked against me. 3v1 or 4v1 and still thinking "Yeah I'm gonna go get the standard in my cabal suit". Sure there are things you can do to try and get yourself noticed for promotion but don't stress yourself out over it, just live and breathe the cabal in both roleplay and PK and it'll happen when it happens. Enjoy the ride, not the destination. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f0xx Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 You must have been looking at a different game. Nah, I actually had a few examples included in the post you quoted, but later edited them out, as per your prescription. See now why we prefer to use solid examples?

Elrozin Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Nah' date=' I actually had a few examples included in the post you quoted, but later edited them out, as per your prescription. See now why we prefer to use solid examples? Nah, you had theories. It's been stated several times that each IMM runs his or her cabal as she or he desires. You had examples of Player A in Cabal Yellow being promoted faster than Player B in Cabal Orange and created a false dichotomy between Player B whining and getting promoted without taking any other factors into consideration. If you want to take up why with a cabal IMM, you're always welcome to ask in the Prayer Forum. Just as an FYI, we're all welcome to our opinions.

I don't necessarily see what that has to do with the cabal promotion of Player B. :confused: Bumped that post up for you, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I've Killed for Less Posted October 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I'm in no rush. I'm just really excited for one of my next cabal skills. Can't wait to show some of these knight the true power of a nexus. And I only wanted to see what was good, and what was frowned upon, so I didn't get myself in any trouble. Last thing I wanna do is ruin my chances of getting a promo. I will take my sweet time, and keep killing knights like it's my job. Oh wait, it is my job. Muahhahaha. -Charles IKFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Nameless Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I posted one time about promotions in watcher, because I was not getting auto promo to V, was stuck at M for like 17 hours. I asked a question about if watcher auto promo to V, and zhokril proceeded to lay into me about asking for promotions, and basically to shutup and play a watcher.

The-Nameless Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 I can bump it if you want. I asked if watcher auto promos to V, and was not very nice about the question. I was not digging for a promo or anything, just was curious as I had been at M for an inordinate amount of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Implementor Anume Posted October 16, 2012 Implementor Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Were probably missing one of the requirements. Do cabal promotion next time, will tell you what you are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
