Medal of Communication (MoC) |
 |
The Medal of Communication is awarded to any member who has displayed
constant communication efforts such as posting on mailing lists,
posting on the Emperor's Hammer Message Boards, maintaining a high
level presence on IRC channels, etc. The basic Medal of Communication
has the Bronze Oak Cluster addition.
Additional numbers of Medals of Communication may earn one of the
following upgrades: |

Bronze Oak Cluster (boc) |

|
 |
|
Silver Oak Cluster (soc) |
In third month of activity |
|

Platinum Oak Cluster (poc) |

Diamond Oak Cluster (doc) |

The system of awarding those upgrades is simple. Assume that the
members mentioned here are very active in terms of communication every
month. In the first two months of activity, members are rewarded with
the Bronze Oak Clusters. In the third month they are awarded the Silver
Oak Cluster instead of a Bronze Oak Cluster. In the fourth and fifth
month they are awarded yet again with Bronze Oak Clusters and in the
sixth month, they shall gain a Gold Oak Cluster. This process continues
until the reach Diamond Oak Cluster and then starts once again from the
beginning. Therefore, members active throughout all months in a year
should receive eight Bronze Oak Clusters and one of Silver, Gold,
Platinum and Diamond Oak Clusters. This is not a continuous process, so
if a member is somehow not active in a few months, he shall not be
penalized and when he returns he will continue his progress in this
“queue” as if nothing has happened.
Authority: This medal can be awarded by the Communications
Officer.
