Rule 1A4F: Recruitment

Upon the passage of this bill, all players who voted "yes" in favor of it are hereby designated as "Recruiters." Recruiters are granted maximum blogger privileges, in that they will be set to "admin" mode on the blogger control panel by the current Administrator of Nomiblog. However, while this gives them the technical ability to edit things like crazy, even things posted by other players, they are honor-bound to not abuse that power. In fact, the only use they are allowed to make of these greater access privileges is to invite and add new players.

Whenever a new player posts for the first time ever, the Recruiter who first invited them to nomiblog may reply to that post and indicate that they recruiter said player. As a reward for their recruiting efforts, they may claim up to 3 different resources. Resources are defined as points, items, titles, or statuses created by other rules (or repealed former rules) and documented in the right-hand column. The actual administrator of nomiblog will then update the right-hand column to match the change.

For example, a recruiter could say "I recruited him, so gimme a Parrot, a Baronial Title, and a Bacos." R_b_bergstrom, upon becoming aware of such a request, would alter the scorecard to reflect those changes.

Yes. Here's a tutorial for those wondering how to add players. After you've been given Recruiter status, look to the top right corner of the playnomiblog homepage. Click on the small "customize" link in that corner.

This will bring you to a new screen. On the left, kinda near the top, are three tabs. The middle tab says "Settings". Click on it.

This changes the lower 2/3rds of the screen. At the top of the part that just changed is a row of links. The furthest right link says "permissions". Click on it. The screen below this link will change again.

Now scroll down. On the left side of the screen, below the player list, is a bluish button labeled "add players". Click on it, and enter in the email address of the person you'd like to invite.

There's probably some confirmation button to be pushed thereafter. It's been a while since I did this last. Let me know if you need more help.

correction: the blue button is labeled "add authors" not "add players".
