Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand, HelloKittun!

[Corki]

Just to keep Canis happy and off my back!  :P

 

So, HelloKittun, welcome to the Band of the Red Hand, one of the best Social Groups at DM! You have made a brilliant decision in enrolling into the ranks of the greatest fighting machine in Randland! As you have probably noticed, the Band is DM's music, travel and eating out Social Group. So have a good browse and jump right into our activities on offer.

 

I have been very efficient and asked that you be added to the Band's usergroup, and you have been successfully added so you should be able to see a whole host of new boards that relate to the Band. Don't be afraid of them - we will guide you through them. Also expect a PM from F Horn of Valere in directing you into the Raw Recruit Scheme, which has been revamped and starting afresh very shortly. Check out the Recruit Business board for more details!

 

For now, sit back and relax, while some of the merry Banders come and meet you!

[F Horn of Valere]

Welcome to the Band! I hope you have a good time here! I am also sending you a message right now.

[Jeannaisais]

Welcome! It's always good to see those in command around here are getting their jobs done...mine is to get you added to our roster of peeps ;)

 

*hands the newbie some brownie and brew tea* Enjoy and have fun! Look around, get to know us, we don't bite....well, most of us don't.

[HelloKittun]

[Canis Rufus]

Hey Kittun!  This should prove interesting.  ;)

[Imperium]

[HelloKittun]

Thanks everyone! However, I doubt that I am supposed to ignore Recruitment  ;) ...I'm good at ignoring things to do. I'm ready to get started! Once something starts I have to finish it. So let's begin!!!  ;D

[Canis Rufus]

Seeing as how she is going to be my wife in about a year I think she knows who I am.  :P    But yes we are supposed to introduce ourselves.  So….

 

Hello, Hello Kittun, I am Canis Rufus Leader of the Cav’s, bringer of the bacon, master of the kitchen and lover of you.  I look forward to seeing you in Cav’s and at home when I get there.  ;)

[Corki]

Right, the boss is back after remembering the boards had come back from the dead!

 

So that means it is time to give the Official Spiel! I hope you are holding onto something tightly so you do not get blown away by its full force!

 

*official spiel*

 

Welcome HelloKittun! An email explaining important information about the Band is currently sitting in your inbox! Take a read! Also check your PMs shortly! ;)

 

Basically, the Band of the Red Hand is the Travel, Music and Eating Out Social Group at DM! By signing up for the Band, you have joined the successful Raw Recruit Scheme. You have hopefully been added to the Band's usergroups so you can see more boards, and you will be able to experience the whole process to the maximum! The Executive Officer, who runs the Raw Recruit Scheme, is currently F Horn of Valere, who will shortly set you up to spend your time with the three Regiments (Archers, Cavalry, Infantry), where you will be given various tasks to perform, hoping that you will get a picture of what time in each Regiment is like. After this time with each Regiment, you will be asked to pick your final choice of a Regiment.

 

While being a Raw Recruit, there is nothing stopping you from earning points like any other Band member. Points lead to promotion within the Band. Below is a list of possible ways to earn points:

 

- writing reviews on places to visit/holidays you have been on

- writing reviews on music albums and gigs

- writing restaurant reviews!

- the variety of music based activity threads on DM

- replying to other people's reviews and asking questions

- composing Jak O' the Shadow verses

- getting articles published in our monthly newspaper, The Hornsounder

- posting in the monthly roll call in the Band's private boards here at DM

- any DM project we may have, which includes our Quote Project (speak to Amavia and Angyl)

- and much much more I cannot think of right now!

 

If you complete your time as a Raw Recruit within 2 weeks, you will get a special award (called the Raw Recruit Stripe) which you can add to your siggy as well!

 

While being a Raw Recruit, you get 3 free strikes. This enables you to break Band Law 3 times without being punished by the Redarms, the Band's very own police force. If they see any Law breaking, they will either drag you up for a trial or give you a fun spot fine to do (usually 100 lines of something witty). Channeling is a major no-no in the Band. As is spilling Battle Brew, our beloved drink! Once you have used up your 3 strikes, or join the Band's ranks officially, you will face the full force of Band Law like any other Bander does!

 

Of course, we are not all about working 24/7, as we do let our hair down now and then! We are famous for our bar brawls, which happen frequently! Keep an eye out for one! We also like jokes, tales, funny pictures - things that will make us laugh!

 

We also have many games, which can be found amongst our boards at DM, which can be found in the stickies, in the Campfires or the Lottery set up in our Dicing with Jak O' the Shadows board, which you will see once you have been added to our private boards here at DM. Also, take the lessons to learn our Dice Game, based on the luck of dice! You get the selected weapons of your Regiment, and can fight anyone in the Band! We'll give you a practise fight so you can get your bearing until you are ready to challenge a Bander. Also look out for our festivals of various games using the dice roller and Dice Game. There are many staff members for the Game who will be willing to help you out.

 

Once you have been added to the list for the private boards here, you will also be able to participate in our lottery game, which takes place in the Dicing With Jak O' the Shadows board. It is a lot of fun, and your winnings can buy you various goodies!

 

If you have a Facebook account, search for the group 'DM Band of the Red Hand'. Click to apply. Then PM/email me to say you've requested to join, and we'll accept it. I'm using Facebook as another way to communicate with Banders!

 

If I have left anything out (which I expect I have!), do not hesitate to ask questions! Someone will be able to answer them for you!

 

One last thing...
