While having a chat with one of my good JA friends, I started writing an article on how I ended up...well here. I dont hope for anything else except that this will inspire everyone to strive for their goals. This may also give you a better idea on who I am. Its Kinda long but if you can bear to read it, its under the comments. Thanks and may the force be with you all.

A Word on Clans. -AvALON D`Kana- Dec 13 06:50pm -14 comments-

This goes to every member of the JA that is a member of a clan. I MUST remind each of you that this is a SCHOOL. We are not a clan or a recruiting place for it. We don't mind you wearing tags but when you enter our doors, leave ALL clan egos and duties at the door. We're here to learn and make that learning as fun as possible without the mess. Thank you and May the Force be with you all.

Gamecity... -doobie- Dec 11 11:17pm -23 comments-

I'm using this as a reminder that yes, we do have a FANTASTIC European server. The admin/host of the server (who I won't name, I'll let him name himself if he likes) just joined the Academy, and I hate to see the server sitting there so empty all the time when this guy has made such a wonderful donation. So please, start using the Gamecity server. Just hop on it for 10 minutes or so. If people see you're on, maybe they'll join up. Although I do think it has the old version of the map... but hopefully you still have it too (and Admin-who-I-shall-not-name, if you read this post, download our new map at this address and install it on the server please  )

Good comment of the day... -doobie- Dec 09 06:39pm -32 comments-

I think I'm going to start highlighting the good posts I see around the site on the news page. So to start that off, I saw this one from a few days ago that Vaughn posted on the "Are you guys a clan" FAQ page. He has some good thoughts on what exactly the Academy is (and no, he's not implying communism as in Soviet communism, he's implying communism as in Marxist, pure communism. Click here for a humorous explanation if you're confused about the difference).
"there are many clans within the academy. I am starting to belive that The academy is not a clan or a klan, or a cult... but a community. Think of it as an olden style town. In this town, there are 3 different types of people. The elders (council), the parents (JAT's/JAStaff), and then the children (JAS/JAK). While the parents may be doing their own thing with the elders (meetings), the children are all out having fun. While some children hang out toghether (Clans = gangs?), there may be some who are not part of these groups, who are just friends by themselves. These children who are not part of any clans/gangs/cults, are the people without any tags other than (JAS) or (JAK).
To be part of this community/town, you do not have to be part of a clan/gang, you just have to be helpful to people, no matter who they are, and nice to everyone, from the academy or not. What I am trying to get at, is that the academy relies on respect and friendship. Without these, the academy would be non existant.
I dont know if people like the ideals of communism, but in the ideal communism, people are equal. If the academy was perfect, it would be more like the ideal communist town, however it is not yet perfect. Therefore, it is stuctured more like a democrocy, or monarchy where people can advance (not anarchy > ). This is to help everybody. The rules would be enforced, and everyone would be or is happy. "

Learner trials -doobie- Dec 09 01:56pm -37 comments-

Just a clarification... I've made a decision that 2 knights can do learner trials, as long as they've done trials before with JATs around. Hopefully this will help with our backlog a bit... lemme know if everyone thinks this is a bad idea, good idea, or just an idea, floating out there in space somewhere.

DJ's holiday vacation extravaganza -DJ Sith- Dec 09 11:02am -15 comments-

I'll be out of town for about 10 or so days from today. I'll check up around here every once in a while, but for the most part I won't be around much for a week and a half. Yes, even council members take vacations.

Raise your glasses for Ulic Belouve! He did an excellent job in the trials. We are also putting Ulic in charge of our lightsaber lost and found department. Again, congratulations, Ulic!
