Just to reiterate what I already reiterated, this is an UNOFFICIAL group run by students for students. The administration is only offering help getting it off the ground, nothing more nothing less. Don't get your panties all in a bundle, if you don't like it you don't have to participate, and don't need to be afraid that JASE members will have some sort of official function in the JA: they won't :)

You get nominated by a committee. The committe is appointed by the Council.

Edit: The Council being the (co-)founders of JASE.

Great, get more servers, but bomb this massive, list of cr*p. It's really useless, to be frank in my view. We don't need to expand to pubs. We are here to teach, people come to us, if they need help. We don't go out in need of recruiting people.

I wont participate with the JASE im afraid, I still need to get to know the JA and since i've been to one lesson (Lord Exars red style :thumbsup: ) I think i'll wait a bit longer.

What if you just test it out? Have an official trial period that ends on a certain date. At that point in time, we could all have another discussion/poll whatever to see how it's going. If it seems to be working out ok, the JA council renews it's "unofficial support" of this...uh, extracurricular activity. If not, we the students could allow it to die a quiet death, but thank the people for trying so hard in an attempt to improve the JA.

I don't know. I'm fence-sitting. I see good points on both sides.

well put, Billy.

has anyone ever NOT helped out a NEW GUY around here ? I too appreciate ur effort - but u're putting it the wrong direction. More tags and stuff sucks. I recall the JAI/JAB/JAJ tags.... yuck - no other "status" for Students - but Students. period.



Monty, Aeth, u got another seat for me there ? ;)

Hmmm.....I've read the outline and this whole thread, and it seems to me you're making a mountain out of a mole-hill. It almost looks like you're trying to make another Jedi Academy.

I'm all for recognizing people that go the extra mile, that part of it I like a lot. However, I think you're making it too complicated. There shouldn't be an entire organization for this.

Recognizing students that work hard, help everyone they can, uphold the ideals of the Academy, etc. is great. If this were simply an award, it's perfect. But only current JAKs/JACs/JATs should be giving out this award, not other students.

If this is supposed to be like a "student council" that represent the students to the Council, again, it's just way too overblown. Besides, I thought that was one of the JAK's jobs, to bring student's concerns to the Council.

I totally believe you guys have nothing but good intentions, but this whole thing seems to be just another way to do the ranks which were done away with.

Just my 2ยข

I think it's time for a poll.

1. I understand the idea and I don't think it's good
2. I understand the idea and I think it's good
3. I don't understand the idea

That should give a clear outcome. Either way you might try to revise the outline Faded, I think you got enough critizism to do it.

"Recognizing a student that they are lets say an elite student(there skillz are high, there knowledge of the game and how things work is great, they have the abilities to teach, and they participate in the community of JA regularly"

This is 99% JAK defenition.

About the tag, JASEs are officially still students, means if they wear a JA-tag, it has to be JAS :)

I'm not really against the JASE, but I don't like the 'excellence'.... for me that's just another word for 1337, but perhaps it's just a misunderstanding of the word.

What I know I DO like about this is if (I don't know if it's how it will/could be) somewhat new students, who have read about the JASE here, is a little shy or have been rejected by some other students while asking for training, see the JASE tag and is more likely to ask for training.

= Greater chance of them asking for training than if there is no JASE

Of course this is just a theoretic +, we still can't know how it will be if/when it get on the servers.

This is my understanding of what JASE is.

Recognizing a student that they are lets say an elite student(there skillz are high, there knowledge of the game and how things work is great, they have the abilities to teach, and they participate in the community of JA regularly)

So a JASE would be someone who the teacher would already know could help them in a lesson.

If JASE is only given to students and it is to recognize these elite students then to me it would seem the JASE would stand for ~Jedi Academy Student of Excellence~(or Student's)

will you put this in your title?
Example: instead of Lord Nefarious'JAS

it would be: Lord Nefarious'JASE

ya....na......?

I get ur point - and I totally disagree.

this seems like "sucking up" to the JAC/JAK/JAT staff.....

EVERYBODY should be JASE - and all the dudes I know behave as described above.

here's an idea monty. we understand that you see no reason for it, but see if you can help us to revise this outline so you do see a reason for it. please help us to make JASE as good as it can possibly be, even if you don't agree with it.

fizz: there was never equality. there will always be students that are better than others. we only that these better students help the others to become better. and when that happens, JASE believes that these better students should be recognized for their service.

hm that almost reads like the Belouve codex :D

but I am with Monty - I fail to see a point in this.....

we quit the trials and other ranks to make all Students equal - and now some are "more" equal again - *shakes head*
