I was asked by a lot of lesser-ranking officers on mIRC, what can they do to be active? Well, here is a list:

- You could post a minimum of one story a day on the Vast Empire StoryNet.

- You could volunteer to be one of the half a dozen assistants which will be needed by Ambassador Christiana ([email protected]) for the new Vast Empire Embassy.

- Teach someone in the Vast Empire HTML, Flash, etc.

- You could participate in the Imperial Omega Campaign.

- You could become the top participant for the Vast Empire's ZONE Recruiting campaign by advertising for clans to join us on the Internet Gaming Zone.

- Submit an article to the Vast Empire Gazette ([email protected]).

- Help a new recruit install mIRC and log onto the main Vast Empire channel.

- You could recommend to the Office of the Council Secretariat a subordinate officer who you believe deserves a medal or promotion.

- You could play several of the mods/levels/missions created by Vast Empire members and send critiques to their authors stating how they could improve on their creations.

- You could post humorous Star Wars jokes and pictures on the Lounge ComNet.

- You could try a little harder to attain a promotion in the Vast Empire Dark Jedi Order.

- You could attempt to become the "Donald Trump" of the VE Stock Market!

- Volunteer via the listbots/egroups to make VE unit webpages for the units whose commander is unable to make one.

- You could write a simple Star Wars story about your Vast Empire character and post it for others to read. (This story can be unconnected with the current story threads.)

- You could petition to become a member of the Blue Star Corporation.

- Volunteer to create the Vast Empire Embassy website.

- You could ask Moff Threeof4 if he needs help with the automated VE roster project.

- You could turn in/betray one of your friends for some minor wrong doing to the Council Sec. Hey, everyone has done something wrong somewhere in their service in the VE :P

- You could volunteer to help with the Vast Empire domain pages.

- You could start an RPG game on the RPG ComNet! Perhaps if the game was successful, you might be given moderator access to that board.

- You could bug the Vast Empire divisionary leaders to update their listbots and egroups. This, of course, would probably result in a demotion.

- You could offer to buy Admiral Schnapps another bottle of alchahol in exchange for a promotion recommendation.

The list goes on and on . . .

Well, i think a while ago i got a position of assistant to Christiana, but...was never called upon to do anything. That's one down.

*cough*....*short pause*

I, Master Sergeant Double Agent, volunteer any service that i may provide to help anyone in the Vast Empire out, especially in HTML and stuff like that, which i am fairly proficient in.

If you wish to learn HTML, email me and tell me you're interested, because while i was reading it, i thought maybe my writing a VE HTML guide would be in order (if there's not one already) so those who don't know any could at least learn the basics.

I also volunteer to help create any websites (perhaps a small fee would be in order, depending upon the job) that the various citizens of the Vast Empire would need.

Last, I bestow upon Schnapps all liquor that i don't finish on every weekend for a year, in addition to...uh...let's see....a half-finished bottle of....schnapps. and...let's see...who can i turn in for a minor offence...? Uh...Anakin stole my dog...or something.

P.S. Except for that last paragraph, it's all true.

P.P.S. By "last paragraph" i mean the last REAL paragraph, and not the "P.S." one.

P.P.P.S. What i meant to say in this post was that if you need something done that i can help you with, don't hesitate to ask! my email is [email protected]

So we should ignore this paragraph:

?

If so consider it ignored.

No, I think it was the whole post we were suppose to ignore.

Consider the post ignored, Speedo Shorts.
