The Vision

OKOT 101 - THE VISION

So, now that we've covered a little bit of background, we should cover what it is we are all working toward and why.

You should all be aware that the OK, and Rising specifically, has had multiple opportunities to merge and become a 'super guild'. Several of these would have pushed us into a might range that would have made us a top five guild on the server in one fell swoop. This, however is not how we have chosen to build.

As was referenced in the Introduction to this training session, the Oath Keepers have been and will continue to be built as a family. And specifically, as a family of guilds. The goal right now is to push us to 5 total guilds. As of this moment, we stand at 4. Three of whom are in the top 100 guilds in the kingdom. We are constantly growing, improving, looking to add to our family. And THIS is where all of YOU play such a crucial role.

In the event that we finalize arrangements with any guild wishing to become s family member of the OK, then at least one of the existing r3s will be asked to shift to the new family coming in. This ensures that a smooth transition occurs and allows for that individual to be the one who is bringing the Oath Keepers way of doing things directly to the new family.

Beyond that scenario, in our existing families - including R - there exists a need for qualified, trained officers. As you all should have noted, placed within the COE are two 'Co-GLs'. These positions, much like the r3 roles, are designed to be ''training positions'. Those officers are considered to be 'GLs in waiting'. They are in fact simply waiting for us to a) bring a new guild into the family at which time they would slide over and assume the r5 role, or b) Waiting for our growth to continue so explosively that we are forced to bring a whole new guild online.

Approaching growth and expansion this way allows for our ideals and principles, the Charter, the Codes of Conduct and the RSS Sharing plan to be immediately put into place and properly implemented by someone who has seen it all work, and helped oversee its continued growth and upkeep within Rising itself.

So, this then brings us to the TOPICS of this training itself.
