	I come bearing familiar news friends. Tonight with the resignation of Baconator and the two server managers of our Rust division, we have decided to shut the Division down. Those resignations combined with lack of player support have led us to this decision.

<p>
	<strong><span style="font-size:14px;">A change in our direction</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	A few of you might have noticed that the Council role was removed. This is the result of some internal changes that occurred earlier today. It has become clear to us that we have become increasingly focused on our teams and the council rather than the servers. We have decided this combined with the drama caused by it does not serve our mission of providing a high quality gaming experience to our players, so we have decided that it would be best if we cut down and simplified. We believe that in order to best accomplish this, we needed to remove council. We also have a few other changes to the structure of teams that will be dropping after appropriate internal discussion has taking place. The specifics are TBD and TBA, though we hope to simplify the structure significantly. The last thing we have changed internally so far is trusted. We have removed some members of trusted who we felt were not very active or otherwise didn't really fit with the team. Trusted will now be chosen by directors from members who are interested in helping <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> move forward. We're looking for people that we can trust, give constructive feedback, and active within the community. There will not be any applications for this role however.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I would however like to take a moment and thank the following individuals for their time and dedication:

</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Kite9867 will be staying as co-leader of moderation along with Benroy. I am uncertain of the plans of the other three.
</p>

<p>

<p>
	<strong>Promotions</strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Speaking of <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/13-ben-roy/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="13" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/13-ben-roy/" id="ips_uid_4752_8" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(255,0,0)">Ben Roy</span></a>, I'd like everybody to welcome him to Director. He has remained dedicated to <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> for a long time now and has done some excellent work with discord. We hope he continues his good work as director!
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Transparency </strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	In addition to the other changes we have acted on, we would like to work on improving transparency. I would like to advocate that all staff begin using trello again so that we can communicate the current projects that are being worked on to the public.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Currently we only really have a trello for the directors, which has not been updated for quite some time, but I am going to push for this to change soon.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<span ipsnoautolink="true">Directors: <a href="https://trello.com/b/890AW0QM/team-directors" rel="external nofollow">https://trello.com/b/890AW0QM/team-directors</a></span><span style="display: none;"> </span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Do take into consideration that some things will naturally be kept private regardless.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Concerning Team Members</strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	This bit really only concerns team members, but in interest of transparency, I'm going to write this here rather than make another post. We have decided to remove Team Members from the staff discord. So you have not been kicked in error. Communication will be done through the public discord and the PR discord.
</p>

<p>
	You can join the public discord by clicking this link: <a href="https://discord.gg/qqpM47e" ipsnoembed="true" rel="external nofollow">https://discord.gg/qqpM47e</a>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	If you are a team member and need a link to the PR discord, message me for an invite. As of now, nobody has been demoted from teams nor has any team been dissolved.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Conclusion</strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	If you have questions, comments, or concerns. please comment on this thread. I will be doing my best to address concerns and questions as they arise. However, we would like to avoid arguments or fights, so please do not do that.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Thanks!

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Last night I was made aware of an issue in which a large number of people had been banned by an individual who had obtained the GFLBans tokens for Hide and Seek and Rotation. We determined that a staff member's Pterodactyl account was compromised by the individual due to reused passwords, which they used to obtain the GFLBans tokens and vandalize the servers they had access to. We responded by deactivating the tokens and revoking the compromised staff member's panel account. As some servers were rendered inoperable, we are currently working on restoring backups and will have them up as soon as possible.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	With the access the individual had, it is possible they would've been able to access the following potentially sensitive items:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		User Steam account IDs and associated IP addresses of users who had connected to the affected servers.
	</li>
	<li>
		In-game chat logs.
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	That said, based on the logs our system collects to monitor staff member activity on the panel, we have no evidence that the user attempted to access any of this information. In fact, the activity logs suggest that the log files containing this information were deleted without being read by the individual during their wider effort to vandalize system resources. As such, we do not expect that any PII has actually been exposed but we publish this notice out of an abundance of caution.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We don't believe it is necessary for users to take any action at this time, but as always we caution against reusing passwords and recommend that everybody, players and staff members alike, utilize a password manager to aid in maintaining secure and unique passwords for all of the websites you use.

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Hello everyone! We’ve made a lot of progress on the Moderation Team reform since the last update post!</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<strong><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">THE RULES</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">We made a few changes in response to feedback we have received.</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">First, we have changed the harassment rule to be more concise and comprehensible. You can find the revised rule, along with the rest of the rules and associated punishments, on </span><a href="https://gflclan.com/forums/topic/66658-forums-rules/" rel=""><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">this thread</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">. We’re continuing to work on updating our </span><a href="https://gflclan.com/rules/new-rules/" rel=""><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">forum rules page</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;"> and Discord embeds and we hope to have those completed soon.</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">We also now have a process established to handle rule changes. Rule changes must now be discussed internally by moderators. The Moderation Team Leader and the Director of Teams will have the final say on such changes, however, they will generally implement the change should the majority of the team agree to do so. If you have feedback on the rules, let us know!</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Finally, there was a lot of controversy regarding the automatic deletion of slurs, specifically the word “retard.” We have since removed this word from the list pending further discussion. The words that are currently automatically removed can be found </span><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UQV6_JHAH8B6823JgChwSPeDvKml98bMPzOp31aPjJQ/edit" rel="external nofollow"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">here</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">. As moderators encounter new situations, additional slurs can be added to the list provided the moderation team as a whole believes that it is extreme enough for inclusion on the list. We will do our best to let people know when changes are made to the filters, but an authoritative change-log can always be found on the previously linked document.  </span>

<p dir="ltr">
	<strong><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">THE APPLICATIONS</span></strong>
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">We have recently tackled applications resulting in the majority of them being either accepted or denied. We believe that we have enough forum moderators at this time, after we close the remaining applications, we will not be accepting any new applications for the time being. Should we decide that more moderators are needed, we will create another thread and re-open applications.</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Discord moderator applications are always open and should be dealt with within two weeks of submission.</span>

</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">While we did not announce our picks for Senior Moderator in the previous update post, we are happy to announce that Salad and Bue will be our first Senior Moderators. We intend to select a few more people for this position, however, they will be picked at a later date. As Senior Moderators, Salad and Bue will be tasked with ensuring that moderators are behaving appropriately and following our Moderation Etiquette. They’re experienced with moderation and will assist the Moderation Team Leader in training and maintaining the team. Senior Moderators will be available to consult on situations that other moderators are unsure of. They are also Global Moderators on both the forums + Discords. </span>

	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Hey, it’s Joshy!  I think a lot of you have seen me around especially in the directory thread.  I joined <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> at the end of 2014 while I was just beginning my traveling adventures in Washington, DC.  The first game that caught my attention was CS:S Zombie Escape, and I’ve got some bad news: I was one of the edge warriors with a shotgun…  not the right way to play ZE!  Should obviously have an AWP ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).  Soon after joining I use a lot of programming from school and work as an electrical engineer, and so I joined the Developer team.  That was a short stint because I made the mistake of signing up for too many engineering classes and the full 3-4 hours of sleep would be a good night.  Some unfortunate shenanigans brought me to the CS:S Surf DM server, which became my new home and I grew into leadership roles from there; later becoming more tangled in all of the servers of the time such as CS:GO and GMOD including TTT MC 24/7.  To make it short: Things happened and I went back to my regular old VIP status until recently.  I’m a foreigner no matter where I go because I travel a lot (prior to the pandemic), but <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> has been one of the few things I can take with me no matter where I go.  I’m thrilled you guys were able to accept me into the team and work with you all; I hope I wont let you down.  Leadership and drama is nothing new to me.  I worked in retail and various management roles for over 5 years right after high school.  I hope I’m great with kids because my fiancé and I have one on the way… we’re very excited.  Thanks!</span>

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">You probably don't know me too well, but I've been pretty active around the forums for the last 5 months or so. I've browsed the forums pretty consistently for the last couple of years, but never posted much. This was because I was a part of another large CS:GO gaming community where I held various ranks, including Director. Altogether, I probably have around 3 years of experience under my belt when it comes to moderating a forum similar to the <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> forums. When I did first get active around here, I had taken a Server Manager position. The server didn't end up flourishing, but since I was still interested in helping the community in any way possible, I applied for Forum Moderator. Of the available positions at <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>, I'm actually probably best suited for this one. I hope I can get to know a lot of you a little better and I'm looking forward to putting my best foot forward in this position.</span>

	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#ffffff;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">I’m Serenity, you may have seen me around before. I am a pretty new member but have been involved in a lot of things around the community. I just wanted to introduce myself to those who may not know me. I am 18 and from the US. I stopped playing Garry’s Mod around two years ago but wanted to get back into it for nostalgic purposes. I stumbled across <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> and instantly fell in love with it. In my short time being here I have met so many new friends who I hope to know for a very long time. Since I’m always browsing the Forums and talking in Discord I decided to apply for both mod positions. Currently, the positions I hold in <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> are Forum Moderator, Main Discord and GMod Discord Moderator, Server Admin for <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>’s TTT 24/7 MC server, Event Coordinator, Writer, and Social Media. I have so much free time because I am a senior in High School and we are currently in a pandemic, so not much to do. I have so many things I want to do in this community and I hope to stay here for a long while. Anyways, if we haven’t talked yet I hope to soon, whether it be at an event, the Forums, Discord, in-game or elsewhere. I promise that I am really friendly and I don’t bite so don’t be afraid to contact me. (Serenity#6471)</span>

You probably have at least seen my name before as I have been fairly involved with <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> over the past few years and have held several positions including admin on various Garry's Mod servers, Breach Server Manager, Community Advisor, Technical Administrator, and Director (prior to the council reform).

<p dir="ltr">
	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#d0d0d0;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">My name is Salad, and I’m a Senior Discord Moderator as well as a Forum Moderator. I joined <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> in 2015, and I became admin on our Garry’s Mod Purge server. Since then, I took a rather long “break”(insert omegalul here) from <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>, and came back in April. I currently lead the GFX Team, and Co-lead the Social Media Team with Infra. I am also a Community Representative within the Council. Feel free to send me a message via forums or Discord (Salad#6564 on Discord)</span>

	<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#ffffff;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Blessings be! My name is Shuruia, or Shurururururu in the likely event your tongue gets twisted. I'm a 23-year-old writer from the UK. I have been in <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> since just after its inception in early 2011, making me the longest-standing active member in the community. My past positions include TF2 Division Leader, Old Council, Community Advisor, Moderation Team Leader, and Director. At the present time of writing, I'm a moderator on our main &amp; CWRP Discords, as well as on the forums. I'm also a server admin on our CWRP game server, so you'll see me a lot if you happen to play on there. As far as being a "public face" for a community goes, I think it pays to be compassionate and caring—anyone can have their judgement in the moment affected by a bad day that's out of their control. I try to keep this in mind in my dealings with others. If you ever want to talk to me for whatever reason, don't be afraid to add me on Discord. (Shuruia#0730)</span>

Sorry to disappoint though. I’m now a TF2 discord moderator. Other than that, I’m the current TF2 Hightower 2 Manager and current CS:GO Surf Timer Admin. I started in <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> a little over a year ago in CS:GO surf as a server admin. I eventually became one of the server managers for surf, but I felt that I could be more useful somewhere else, thus I'm at TF2 currently working on rebalancing the server’s shop (which is a massive pain). Other roles I previously had that not many know about/remember are CS:GO AWP 24/7 admin and @Infra’s senior admin when the CS:GO KZ server was in development. I never did any actual admin work in KZ, mostly just checked for map problems (which we had to do every map twice because of server problems), and helped out with whatever he needed help with. Outside of <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>, I’m a Junior in University studying for my BSBA with a concentration in Cyber Security and Information Systems. While I'm not busy with <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> or University, I’m busy hiking local trails.</span>

<p>
	Hello everyone! 
</p>

<p>
	<br>
	We are doing something a little different this month in the Rust division... This wipe the event server is going to be transformed into something a little strange. 
</p>

<p>
	For one wipe the event server will be a 0.5x server on a tiny 1000 map. This is 1/4 the size of our normal servers. We are going to keep track of everyone's stats on the event server and will be giving out <strong>free VIP</strong> for 1 week to 3 people based on the stats at the end of the wipe! 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	1. Top KDR<br>
	2. Top Heli kills<br>
	3. <span class="ipsEmoji">✨</span>Surprise<span class="ipsEmoji">✨</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I have also made a few changes here and there on the server that should hopefully spice up the gameplay. I don't want to ruin the fun for anyone so I will only give you a hint... Bears and explosions. You may also notice that the helicopter has been spending some time on UKN so it isn't too easy.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	For the rest of the servers not many changes have been made... We've recently re-implemented the MyMini plugin for VIP and Server Boosters (Discord Nitro). If you're interested in joining this event feel free to join via one of the links below or find the connect link in the server list.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Hope to see you in-game and good luck!
</p>

	Hello all,
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Unfortunately, we’ve recently had to disqualify one of the Community Representative candidates due to excessive hostility towards the other candidates. Community Representative is a staff role with elevated access and a responsibility to work well along with the existing staff of the community. A large part of this is proving that you are capable of abiding by the code of conduct and acting with integrity, including during the election process. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	From the <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> Staff Code of Conduct that all Staff members are expected to abide by:
</p>

<p>
	    B. Treat players and other staff members with respect at all times.
</p>

<p>
	    C. Act professional while interacting with players and other staff members. You are allowed to joke around, however public hostility, excessive shit talking, and other behaviors that may be detrimental to <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>’s reputation as a community will not be tolerated.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	This is not a decision we take lightly as we wish for the Community Representative process to be a reflection of the community’s wishes, however, we also must ensure that our staff team is able to uphold our community values. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We will extend the time frame for voting until December 4 at 10 PM CST. Everybody who voted for the individual in question will be allowed to recast their vote.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	If you have any questions or concerns regarding this decision, feel free to reach out to any of the Directors directly.
</p>

	Hello Everyone. 
</p>

<p>
	After a long council meeting and time-consuming discussions regarding the Discord Moderation team, we have finally come to a final decision. The current team has been dissolved, in favor of the new team we're creating, leaving an exception to our specific CWRP Discord Moderators only. @Salad, @FrenZy, @Skittlez, @Bue, and @Ben will serve as the *temporary* global Discord Moderation Team.
</p>

<p>
	This will remain until we appoint the new members of the team, in which has already begun. We are also actively reworking the current ruleset as well as punishment guidelines.

	The Council has chosen to demote Director of Communications Shuruia and has voted him out of the Council. We have observed and have been made aware of situations where Shuruia has acted inappropriately which ultimately led to the Council no longer feeling confident in having Shuruia as a Director.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We do not wish to start a discussion, but we believe it is in everyone’s best interest to make this note: A situation regarding Shuruia in another community led me, Nick, to have a meeting with the owner. Some of the information that I received at this meeting has played a role in this ordeal, but it was in no way a major driving force.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We will not disclose more in respect to the people involved.

<p>
	Hello all,
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	The Council has opted to remove Flying4ssassin due to a breach of our <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EHb4lCYNi4ZQvk92qUpULJG5beZu-kgJbr-7geSKZ_4/edit#" rel="external nofollow">confidentiality procedures</a>. We do not wish to discuss specifics of the situation at this time as it involves interpersonal disputes between staff and players as well as information that is considered to be internal to <abbr title="Games For Life"><abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr></abbr>.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	As it has not been long since the Community Representative election, we do intend to fill the seat by holding a runoff election. We will announce more details regarding this within the next couple of days.
</p>

</p>

<p>
	<strong>Please note that harassment of the individuals involved will not be tolerated.</strong>

</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	In order to purchase VIP, enter any amount into the amount field (at least $1.50), select VIP, and check the box that says "Purchase permanent VIP ($79.99)." You will be sent to paypal to pay the one time price of $79.99. Once everything is all said and done, your VIP should be working immediately. If you're currently on a games server, you will need to rejoin first.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	(<strong>NOTE: Due to a visual bug, it will say that you are donating the amount you entered in the text box and will receive VIP for a certain amount of days. As long as you have the Purchase permanent VIP option checked, the next page will display the correct summary.</strong>)
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	If you have any issues with VIP after having purchased it, please post a topic <a href="https://gflclan.com/forums/forum/140-donation-issues/?do=add" rel="">here</a> describing your issue, and I will work to get it resolved for you as soon as possible! If you have any questions or concerns, please message myself or <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/1028-liloz01/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="1028" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/1028-liloz01/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(178,34,34)">Liloz01</span></a>

<p>
	Thanks for the great many years so far and we hope to share many more with y'all! <img alt=":furretlove:" data-emoticon="true" src="//gflusercontent.gflclan.com/file/forums-prod/emoticons/furretlove32.png" title=":furretlove:"></p>

<p>
	Hello! I'm happy to announce that we are partnering with Pig's Indie Games. He is currently working on quite a few games, including SCP: Rebirth and Multibombers, his latest project. Multibombers will be released on September 28th and is based off the game Bomberman, but with the addition of first person gameplay and multiplayer. The game will be free to play and is available on steam.

</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Our community, Games For Life, has been invited to participate in a cross-community Overwatch Extravaganza where we'll be playing against 7 other communities in intense 6v6 matches to prove who is the best community at Overwatch. Did we accept the challenge? Of course we did. We can't possibly let a challenge like that go. Prizes, you ask? For those that win: Women, glory and honor. For those that lose: They become the winners' servants.</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">If you're looking to watch or participate in some intense, fun and enjoyable Overwatch tournaments, then this is your chance. The tournament will consist of an upper and a lower bracket where the communities will fight it out in a double elimination style tournament and it is being hosted by <a href="http://hellsgamers.com" rel="external nofollow">HellsGamers</a>. We'll be facing 7 other communities who also wish to win, so this tournament isn't going to be easy. The event will be streamed, a link to that can be found below. The communities participating are:</span>

<p style="color:#cccccc">
	Hello everyone, as some of you can already see we have opened up an official<span> </span><abbr title="Games For Life"><abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr></abbr> Discord server! This is something that was talked about in the past which we didn't think would work alongside our TS3 server. Now that we understand it much more, we can see that TS3 and Discord both have slightly different, but useful, functions.

</p>

<ul style="color:#cccccc">
	<li>
		!role / !roles which will change your role on discord to match your forum rank.
	</li>
	<li>
		!8ball command to ask the bot questions and receive a yes/no or in between answer.
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p style="color:#cccccc">
	We'll be looking at what we can do to improve the server as well, so if you have any suggestions make sure to let us know.
</p>

<p style="color:#cccccc">
	The discord is going to be moderated by <abbr title="Community Advisor">CA</abbr>'s, <abbr title="Division Leader"><abbr title="Division Leader">DL</abbr></abbr>'s and the Directorate until we decide upon a Discord admin team to help out.

<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">
	Hello!
</p>

<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">
	 
</p>

<p>
	We are nearing the end of the current set of Community Representatives' terms, which means it is time to begin the next election cycle! We'd like to have the new community representatives settled into their positions by December 1.
</p>

<p>
	<br>
	As a quick refresher to the unacquainted, a Community Representative is a member of the Council who is not a high-level staff member. Even non-staff members, such as VIPs/Members can be elected. The purpose of the Community Representative role is to guarantee to the community gets a say in <abbr title="Games For Life"><abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr></abbr> Council decisions.<br>
	<abbr>Community Representatives are elected</abbr> for a term of 6 months and may serve up to two consecutive terms. The current community representatives are <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/28360-blazingarson/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="28360" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/28360-blazingarson/" rel="">@<span style="color:#ffff00">BlazingArson</span></a> and <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/8-shuruia/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="8" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/8-shuruia/" rel="">@<span style="color: rgb(114,137,218);">Shuruia</span></a>, they will lose their seat in council shortly after the election has concluded.
</p>

<p>
	<br>
	In order to become one of the two CRs, you must win a spot in the upcoming election. The election is public and members of the community will get to vote. To be considered, you must fulfill a few requirements:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<p>
			You must be a member or above.
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			You must not have any outstanding punishments. Controversial individuals or individuals with an extensive punishment history may also be excluded from running at the option of the current council.
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			You must get at least two current Council members to sponsor your application.
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			Please do not apply if you do not intend to serve the entirety of the 6 month term.
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			You may not currently be a higher-up (Team Leader, Technical Administrator, Division Leader, and Director).
		</p>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	The following are not required, but are strongly recommended:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<p>
			Be well known throughout <abbr title="Games For Life"><abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr></abbr>. Having been present for a long time, having a high amount of Forum / Discord activity, and generally being helpful to new users are generally great ways to accomplish this.
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			Be prepared to deal with drama. There is always plenty!
		</p>
	</li>
	<li>
		<p>
			Try to have sufficient free time to attend council meetings.
		</p>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	For purposes of obtaining a sponsorship, the current council consists of the following members:

<p>
	<i>If you do not get sponsored, there is always a next time. Please do not beg or bother if the answer is no.</i>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	The current community representatives <strong>may not</strong> sponsor themselves should they wish to run again.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Once you have obtained your sponsor, you can submit an application using this <a href="https://forms.gle/xnX3CKdewMoP9CRW8" rel="external nofollow">Google Form</a>. You will receive an email from Google containing your responses indicating that we have received your application. Council will then review applications. If Council approves your application, you will be allowed to participate in the election and you will be contacted by a member of the council containing directions for the second stage of the application process. Applications should be submitted by April 14th and the election will begin shortly thereafter.

<p>
	Hi everyone. I'm here to announce that we've now promoted <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/46670-hamtaro/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="46670" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/46670-hamtaro/" id="ips_uid_503_7" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(255,201,31)">Hamtaro</span></a> to be the new Team Fortress 2 Division Leader. About a week ago, <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/43921-coven/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="43921" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/43921-coven/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(29,163,196)">Coven</span></a> stepped down simply due to a lack of time to carry out the tasks that <abbr title="Division Leader">DL</abbr>'s have. With his help, we were however able to find a suitable replacement in Hamtaro. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I've spoken to Hamtaro quite extensively since then, and am confident that he'll be able to do a great job. So, please join me in congratulating him on his new position. 
</p>
