$4 a piece is pricey to give away. >.< and we'd have to get $100 worth of them (25 pcs) to get that price. Maybe give them to people that help out and leave colors for actual positions? Anyway, what color? Green? Red? Blue? Choice?
I like what you're thinking... a specific color for each tier. 1: White 2:Black 3:Green 4:tan/yellow 5: Blue 6: Red
I went to six even though I'm sure that there are only 4 or 5 and this is just a suggestion
Ok, yeah, you missed a lot. The tier thing is dead. Now, there is a trio leadership between GunJack, osawaab, and myself. That makes a tiebreaker vote. We aren't gods, we don't really do anything other than manage the websites/blog and appoint staff. Then there is forum positions, which is really the only ranking system. The colors, I think should represent as follows.
Plain emblem. (No color triangle): All members of the Collective
Green: Designated event 'researchers', helpers
Blue: Moderators, state specific staff, state specific website/blog/social media managers, etc.
Red: Collective staff, collective website/blog/social media managers, admins, etc.
That's it. No one tells anyone what to do except on the forum cause Moder8ors gonna moder8

Hmm, buteo we need the state positions? I mean really what are they going to do. Take orders from the red group, and that could lead to some problems. I say we just expand and have multiple people for the collective positions, as we also are relying on the normal members to bring in new content such as events and such. The only blue role that we need would be moderators, and personally I think the red group should also be mods unless they prove to abuse their power, in which case why are they staff anyway?
Osawaab is the one!
BlackNightBravo is awesome,
Rondeb is cool,
Gunjack is sick,
intheshadows is "special" .
Where does that put me?

It's NOT a "I'm better than you" or "I'm a higher rank than you" thing. It's a "I have a different job than you" thing. State staff would not take orders. No ones taking orders. Screw that. It's just they might not want to undertake managing the whole damn thing so they just do what they can for their state instead of having to take care of everything. This is referring the blog authors who will post events.
Red forum positions are admins, and event managers who admin the blog as well as author it. (Meaning they manage the whole thing)
Blue forum positions are moderators, and event staff that are state specific.
Green forum positions can be anyone who has been designated for finding events and submitting them via the google form.
With the system, the entire point is so that nobody is senior to someone else. You can't help forum positions, that has to be to maintain a forum but outside if that there is NO superiority. Just DIFFERENT roles.
Also, Admins and staff are bound to come and go, so we need some sort of system or protocol to replace them especially admins. Unfortunately I have to be here as long as this forum is online cause it's linked to my proboards account, but I can certainly make my profile look like a members and just leave the forum alone should I decide I don't want to manage it anymore.

I should have explained that better, what I'm saying is the blue and red should be one, big group. If someone doesn't want to take up the whole dang thing they don't have to, because their will be a team of people to do the job. If someone wants to just help with their state, so be it. It's just that having multiple groups that do basically the same thing, but on different levels. So basically instead of all the groups communicating through the collective group, they should be in the same group to just keep it simple.

It's just a identifier of what your job is....nothing more....it doesn't "block communication" or become a different section of the collective in any way. All in the same conference room.
Yeah, I think the others could be overbearing. Maybe once I get everything sorted away with the OPs, we can designate OP staff and either add it to the blue list or just add another color.

Ok so we need to finalize this and get them made. Right now here's my final thoughts.
Green - regular members that frequently contribute. Kind of a reward for helping out. Blue - OP staff and event organizers Red - Collective staff (also including forum & website staff & managers)
I think that is simple, eliminates the "ahm better than u cuz i gotz a highr rank" problem, and.....yeah.
When we are ready, whoever contacts them to order (prob me) can ask if they can individually ship them to separate addresses. Obviously this is gonna cost shipping to everyone, but it'd be easier i think.
