The Outpost

The Outpost is a crew on the Midnight Ocean.

History
Although the outpost was founded in 2009 its foundations lie in another crew founded back in 2007.

Founding
The Outpost was founded by Xsonofdeathx when he was an officer in Purple Stingers, after running his own crew previously in 2007 (Kotor Cybernation), which at its height had over 30 members and was at war with Notorious Fandango. The Outpost takes over from the old structure of Kotor Cybernation but has a modified ranking system.

Structure And Ranking Changes
The structure of The Outpost is really simple; it consists of a council of senior officers which are the decision making body and a captain which governs over the council and approves/disapproves the councils choices.

The ranks have been changed from its history in Kotor Cybernation. Xsonofdeath started out by observing that the majority of crews ordered people by their marked skill level in the game. Xson decided that a small crew in the current environment would not reach high targets under this system. Xson therefore devised a new system, deciding to keep the tests/training employed by other crews but strip away the skill based requirements and replace them with experience based requirements. The results are yet to be confirmed.

''Disclaimer: it is unknown weather other crews have used this method before. Xsonofdeathx probably didn't do it first but didn't observe any other crews doing so.''

Rules of the Crew
The rules of the outpost apply before any other:
 * 1) Obey the in-game rules of the game you are in
 * 2) Be polite and courteous to everyone you meet
 * 3) Do not follow blindly, question were necessary but accept orders when reason is given
