STEP 1 - Preparation & Introduction
Open the Black Pages and go to your division. You will be using the
following pages: o Applicant Report
o Bootcamp
o Grant TS Access
Go to the Applicant Report and check the staff notes for the applicant for any special
information, including if it is a bootcamp
continuation.
Click on the applicants name to bring up the
Recruit Info.
Check the following information on the Recruit
Info page:
o The applicants country matches the
continent of the battalion they are
assigned to. If not, then it is worth asking
the applicant if this is correct while
conducting the bootcamp.
o The applicants age. If they are younger
than 15, check their date of birth (dob) to
see how far they are from their 15th
birthday.
Drag the recruit to the channel BOOTCAMP.
Introduce yourself and welcome the recruit. Make sure you are pronouncing their name
correctly.

seriously.

cheating, glitching, or using exploits.
If you come across anyone doing so, do not accuse that
player of cheating. Spectate, make a demo/screenshot,
and present your evidence to the staff. They are the
ones who can do something about it.

or organization that supports any game supported by TAW.

position.

behavior is expected of all members in Teamspeak, on the forums, and whenever
playing.
We do not tolerate inappropriate or abusive language in Teamspeak, on any forums, or
on any servers.
While we encourage our members to recruit new players into TAW, we do not recruit on
servers other than our own.
All members should respect the person leading an event and follow their instructions.

Server Funding
Membership in TAW is free. However, we always appreciate donations to support
funding our servers. The Donations page can be reached via the Support tab on the TAW
main page.
Suggestions & Complaints
Members of TAW are encouraged to offer suggestions at any time. Everyone is welcome
to do so on our forums or in TeamSpeak.
However, our communications platforms are no place for complaints, and certainly no
battlefield for personal differences. If you have a problem, inform either your platoon
leader or a battalion staff officer in private.
TAW shop
TAW has his own online shop that offers highly fashionable goods. You can find goods
from TAW or even specific divisions. If you buy something from a specific division, then
the donation goes to that division.
TAW shop: http://taw.net/taw/position.aspx?id=tawshop
IV TAW Organization
Ranks
We are all equal in TAW. You do not need to address anyone with sir or their ranks.
The military ranks in TAW show the responsibilities of members and usually go along
with certain functions.
After 4 practices, every recruit becomes a private first class and a full member of TAW
with access to all forums and the Black Pages. Until then, recruits are probationary
members; during this period it is not possible to request leave.
We encourage members to step up to higher positions and to accept greater
responsibility within TAW.
Promotions are awarded for good attendance and performance. Ranks higher than
Sergeant can only be attained by accepting a function.
