| Another Misguided Soul Joins the Confederacy Officer Corps | Fri Apr 18, 2008 7:47 am by Deoiridh | Everyone, please extend your deepest commiserations to Hew McDraig who has agreed to join the ranks of the Confedracy's officers. Hew will have a responsibility for coordinating RP events both in-game and on the boards so please send him any ideas that you have for RP activities for the society.

| Membership | Wed Apr 16, 2008 5:54 am by NamoLarkin | In all the confusion and hustle to get moved to our new home the normal membership discussions have been delayed a bit but once Deoiridh gets time from her RL comitments we will have them.
There are 2 recruits that we felt shouldn't have to wait due to thier involvement in the RP events, Group activities and Port Battles. Both are involved in combat preperation and we officers felt as such they need access to the Council of War. Congratulations to both
Nicole "the mouse" and Greyed our newest members.

| Promotion, Fame, Wealth | Fri Mar 21, 2008 9:18 pm by Deoiridh | Well, a promotion at least.
The Confederacy welcomes our newest officer, Von Klein. We have all seen the sterling work that she has put in on the drafts of our new society documents. She is also, as many of you know, an outstanding RPer, and the constant back and forth between the two sisters, Gudrun and Lisette, has been vastly entertaining to say the least.
In fact, that is the real reason she is being promoted. The Confederacy doesn't have a lot of money, and this way we get two extra officers for the price of one.
On a more serious note, the addition of von Klein also extends our officer coverage in terms of time zones. She typically plays late in the Pacific Time Zone, and we've been trying to ensure that we have officers in-game at a variety of times to be able to respond to questions from all of you and from prospective recruits.

| The New Forum Categories | Thu Mar 13, 2008 7:28 pm by Deoiridh | Hi everyone
I've completed the first pass through to revamp the forum categories; it's a lot different than it was, so I wanted to explain what I was trying to accomplish and then get your impressions.
I'm a firm believer in both the power of first impressions, and that how you organize and present information speaks volumes about goals, atmosphere, etc. So what I was trying to do with the new forum categories was achieve a couple of things.
1) Simplify the forums and adopt a more coherent organization. We had added a lot of forum categories with the best of intentions, but the result had been that it was often difficult for new members to find relevant information. There was also a lot of duplication of effort, with issues being discussed in several different locations. Prospective recruits and guests will not notice much different in this respect, but the members area has been pared down to only four categories. The purpose of all these changes is to ensure that our discussions are more focused and that we can respond more effectively to ...

| Forum Reorganization | Wed Mar 12, 2008 6:09 pm by Deoiridh | We're in the process of reorganizing the forums in order to simplify our organization. We want to make sure that members can more easily find the areas most relevant to their immediate needs. We apologize in advance for any "service interruptions!" I expect this process may take a couple of days, since I need to check permissions, etc.
((I'm still getting used to the forum admin software!))

| Accepting a Sobering Responsibility | Sun Mar 09, 2008 7:53 pm by Deoiridh | To all members of the Confederacy
As Bishop McDermott mentioned in a recent announcement, when Wilhelm announced his resignation he suggested that I take his place as Proprietor-General, but I asked for the Bishop's leave to take some time to consider the implications of accepting such a responsibility. Like many of you, my Caribbean businesses take up much of my time, and the demands of coordinating a society like this are not inconsiderable. More to the point I really wanted to make sure in my own mind that I had something to offer all of you by accepting such a position.
I have to say, however, that my decision has been made much easier by the determination and commitment that those of you who have remained with the Confederacy have shown to make this society a going concern. Already our membership is contributing great suggestions (both in-character and out!) and I look forward to where this conversation will take us.
Therefore I am accepting the position as Proprietor-General in an interim capacity. Why in an "interim" capacit...
