Rules

### Preface

The staff at CHBL have created a helpful How to Start page for your convenience to refer to at any time! It is **recommended** (but not mandatory) that you have read the **Percy Jackson series**, or alternately have knowledge about **Greek Mythology**. You must also read the How to Start page.

Please make sure to follow our rules. While the staff team understands that people may make mistakes from time to time, there are **consequences** for failing to abide by the rules.

* 3 warnings
* 24-hour ban
* Week-long ban
* Month-long ban
* Permanent ban

In order to roleplay on CHBL, **you must be a member** of both the **Main Server** and the **Archive Server**. This means you have the **roleplayer** role on the former and the **member** role on the latter (your username will be a pale yellow if you have these roles). Additionally, all characters must have the **5 required pieces of information** before being roleplayed (Name, Godly Parent, Stats, Abilities, and Last Edited Label); information detailing these can be found in the archive rules.

**All high-ranks (HR) will be demoted after 2 warnings**. As an HR, you are expected to be role models not only in character but out of character too. You are someone we trust and you should not be constantly breaking the rules. Continue scrolling to read our **general, roleplayer, archive, and high rank rules.**

### General Rules

1. **Be courteous and nice to others**. We strive to be an accepting and friendly community to anyone and everyone who strays our way.
	1. Do not bully, harass, or discriminate against others for their race, sexuality, gender, beliefs, religion, disabilities, mental illnesses, literacy and grammar abilities, etc. Homophobia/transphobia/sexism/racism and so forth will not be tolerated here. Additionally do not use slurs or otherwise offensive language or description.
		1. The staff will ask you to leave if you are being aggressive, disrespectful, hostile, or toxic. Passive-aggressive behaviour also counts.
			1. Staff may revoke entry to the server or roles if a member consistently shows inappropriate or off-putting behavior.
		2. If you and another member have previous drama from elsewhere please do not drag it into CHBL. All drama should stay in its respective origin. Direct Messages are not under CHBL’s jurisdiction either.
		3. Respect and listen to the cabin leaders and other high ranks. They have these roles for a reason, and can even help out with questions should the staff team be busy.
		4. Do not join this server if you are only here for the sake of starting drama.
			1. Furthermore if others tell you to take drama to direct messages, please do so immediately.
		5. It should be common courtesy, but please do not spoil books, shows, or films for others. It takes the fun out of the surprises that the media bring to us for our entertainment.
2. **This server is meant for the purpose of roleplay, and thus you have one week to create a character after joining the server**. If you have not made a character in the given span of time, you will be kicked from the main channels and will be placed back into the default entry one.
	1. Feel free to ask for an extension should anything unexpected pop up.
	2. If you repeatedly are kicked out of the main server channels for this very reason, eventually you will not be allowed back in.
		1. However, an exception is made if you don’t want to make any characters and just want the role of ***spectator***. This role entitles you to a limited access of channels including gallery and ooc.
		2. Note: To gain this role you still have to go through the same entry process of any other member. (I.e: You **must** read the rules and abide by all guidelines in place.)
		3. Being a spectator does not give you permission into the #mature channel or any of the roleplay channels, you must create a character for those privileges.
	3. Do not join this server if you are only here for the sake of being a troll or spammer. You will be banned.
3. **Alternate accounts are allowed**. However keep in mind that you should not be using them to bypass character limits, obtain multiple high ranks, sidestep rules, or avoid warnings/bans with them. If the staff team finds out that you are using the account for those or similar purposes there will be consequences.
	1. You must proclaim your ownership of any and all alternate accounts, and they should be registered under the same roles as your main account.
4. **Swearing is allowed**, but there are exceptions:
	1. Do not use cuss words in a not safe for work context.
	2. Do not use cuss words for ill intention. Do not use them to insult other members and the likes.
5. **Please refrain from posting sexual content about characters or yourselves, triggering content that promotes topics including but not limited to: self-harm and suicide, otherwise controversial topics, or anything not safe for work (NSFW)** in the general channels. For example “Fuck I forgot my homework,” is allowed, but “Let me fuck you,” is not allowed as the latter promotes the idea of sexual activity.
	1. This means that certain words (dick/asshole/pussy/titty/etc.) are allowed as long as they are not imposing sexual activity.
	2. The word “kinky” is an exception to this rule, however it must be only used in a joking manner and not a serious one that would pertain to characters or members on the server.
	3. Joining the server for the sole purpose of erotic roleplay (ERP) is not allowed. This isn’t the purpose of CHBL. If you wish to roleplay your characters doing sexual activity, please take it privately elsewhere.
6. **Request for access to the #mature channel is with your own discretion, and you must read the mature rules before having access**. Enter it at your own risk once you have filled out the proper access form which is at the bottom of the document. You are fully responsible for yourself, and the staff are not to be held accountable should there be any content you cannot handle.
	1. You must be **18+ *and* a roleplayer** to receive the mature role and participate in the channel.
		1. If you are found to be lying about your age to access the chat, there will be consequences.
	2. Sharing the content of the #mature channel via screenshots in any other channel is against the rules. All topics discussed must stay in the channel they originated from.
7. **Do not ask or beg to be a high rank, to go on a quest, or to become staff in the future**. The staff team chose certain people to be high ranks, to go on quests, or to become staff members based on their activity, their attitude, roleplay skills, work ethic, and other factors.
	1. Do not complain or whine in jealousy if somebody else becomes one of these things. Be the bigger person and congratulate them instead.
		1. As a note, if you beg or complain you will decrease your own chances of being picked.
8. **Do not steal or take the server’s ideas or layout and claim them as your own.** If you want to take inspiration, please ask and get permission before you do so.
9. **Advertising other servers and sites is allowed,** as long as you **do not post a direct link to said server or site** and you have **gotten staff’s approval to do so**. A brief message about your server’s plotline will do good. For example: “Hey I have a brand-new server about [topic]. Please message me for the link or to learn more about it!”
	1. Do not join this server if you are only here for the sole purpose of advertising another server or site. There are other servers catered specifically towards this— we are not one of them.
	2. Once again, common courtesy, but please refrain from sending unsolicited advertisements to people who have not asked for them.
10. Pluralkit is, for all intents and purposes, a bot to be used solely by **accounts owned by systems**. It is not to be used as a means for members to roleplay as their characters under the bot's pseudo-account capabilities (as Tupperbox, another bot, does).
	1. Any members not using Pluralkit properly or without permission stand subject to the typical order of consequences followed at Camp Half-Blood Legacies.

### Roleplayer Rules

1. **The only characters you may roleplay in CHBL are demigods**, meaning your characters must be half-god and half-mortal. Your character must be the child of one of the 19 accepted gods of Olympus. To see a list of the available cabins and the abilities they offer, click the aforementioned links.
	1. This means that your roleplayed character **cannot** be the offspring of a Titan, a Primordial deity, monsters, or a child of any other gods that lack cabins.
		1. Although Hera and Artemis do have cabins, they also do not bear children, and thus no demigod should be their child.
	2. **You cannot make your characters any other species**, including but not limited to gods, monsters, or mortals. Furthermore you cannot roleplay a huntress, an Amazon warrior, or any other member of another mythical faction besides a camper.
		1. Cabin leaders, if requested, can roleplay as their cabin’s godly parent for plot purposes only. Gods are non-playable characters and should not be used as an actual character.
		2. Please refer to the monster document should you wish to incorporate a monster to fight in your roleplays.
2. **The current character limit is 5**. You may have less than the maximum number.
	1. If you have more than 5 characters, you must make one of your characters leave the camp or get killed.
3. **Your character is allowed to be in a maximum of four roleplays for efficiency, but they can only be in separate scenarios at once**. It is essential that you choose which of the four roleplays are in the past and in the present.
	1. Exception: **you cannot level up your character’s stats if they are in multiple roleplays**. The training roleplay must be the only roleplay happening to gain stat points. You must drop or end all other roleplays before training.
4. Although it is advised to roleplay with a multitude of people, **please do not barge into a preexisting roleplay without the other roleplayers’ permission**.
	1. Many people have closed-off plots and storylines that they wish to accomplish with their characters, and it is quite rude to intervene with it without any previous warning.
		1. Think about it: would you like it if a total stranger interrupted your romantic date?
5. **The use of non-playable characters or crowds to make a roleplay more dramatic is allowed in situations such as fights or plot explanation**. Please do not use them for anything other than these reasons.
6. **You cannot roleplay your character’s pets as though they have personalities**. For example: “Clifford the cat meowed happily.” is acceptable, whereas “Clifford felt a rush of exuberance as he said ‘Hi there!’ in cat-speak.” is forbidden.
	1. The only exception to this rule is when your character has the ability to speak to animals, or you are role-playing as your character’s pets in the Laelaps meadows channel.
7. **Your character is allowed to be in possession of minor or medical drugs, smoking devices, or alcohol**.
	1. However, if these substances are forbidden by your character’s cabin leader, do not expect your character to be let off the hook lightly if they are caught. Your character is to be responsible for their actions.
8. **Your character may not have a romantic or sexual relationship with somebody from the same cabin**. This is considered incest: it’s even forbidden in the book series.
9. **Permission to enter a cabin** **must be obtained** from the cabin's counselor **prior to entering** if a character does not belong to that godly parent.
	1. You may ask the counselor in the cabin counselor questions channel on the archive by tagging the cabin’s respective counselor role.
		1. Ex: "@Poseidon Counselor may Ha-Yun Kang enter the cabin to visit her friend?"
	2. Gaining out of character counselor permission **does not** have to equate to in-roleplay permission— feel free to talk it over with the counselor if you'd like your roleplay interrupted.
	3. If discovering trespassers in their cabin, a counselor may interrupt the roleplay in question and throw out the trespasser.
		1. The counselor may also deliver an in-roleplay consequence to the sibling who invited a non-resident into the cabin without permission. However, the consequence must be reasonable.
		2. A counselor interrupting a trespassing roleplay in their cabin channel is **not** restricted to their current roleplay slot limit.
10. Not only should you respect them out of character, as aforementioned, **your characters should have some respect for other characters with higher statuses**.
11. **Do not create overpowered “Mary Sue” characters, power-play, or directly control/roleplay characters that are not your own**. Use battle techniques fairly and know that a character should have strengths and weaknesses.
12. **Refrain from fail-roleplaying or meta roleplaying**.
	1. *Fail-roleplaying* is when you use your personal stance or opinion of another roleplayer out-of-character, and translate said stance in roleplay with them. An example would be making your character attack another person’s character simply because you do not like the other person.
	2. *Meta-roleplaying* is when you use knowledge said elsewhere, such as in out of character chat or from another roleplay that did not involve your character, and give said knowledge to your character to use.
13. **When typing out of character in the roleplay channels please use brackets around the out of character text to distinguish the two**.
14. Although first-person roleplaying is allowed, **please state your character’s name somewhere in your post**, regardless of your roleplay style. Alternatively you can put their name before or after your roleplay post, or in a more complicated format similar to: Josh [Your Character’s Name] | Dining Hall [Location] | @Snips [Other Roleplayer Tags]
	1. It is good to note that the majority of the server uses a semi-literate to literate, third-person, story-style roleplay format.
		1. A very brief example of this format is “Dalton walked into the library. He picked a book from the shelves and read it.”
15. A maximum of **80 points** may be accumulated within a singular training post or session per day. For regular campers, this is a training post or session consisting of 400 relevant sentences. If your post exceeds this threshold, you may need to break it up into several separate posts.
	1. **Tag @Training Post Checkers** if your training roleplay for your character has accumulated **60** **or more** points within the day, regardless of whether this was obtained with one big post, or several smaller ones.
		1. Once tagging the post checkers, **you may not post again** until one of them has approved your previous post.
16. It is highly encouraged for Cabin Leaders to **create cabin-specific servers** to increase activity!
	1. Each cabin server should have **CHBL’s Server Rules** and a **Department 3 Member** (Twi or Yue). The cabin servers are still affiliated with the rules of the main servers; you **will** be held accountable should you break any rules on the cabin-specific servers.
	2. All roleplays and in-character text chats that take place on the cabin servers are **not canon** and should have no effect on the development of plots and characters. Only roleplays and interactions that take place on the main server will count as canonical events.

**No loopholing around or rebelling against these rules**, which includes avoiding punishments through the means of alternate accounts or hacking. It is quite obvious when you're trying and the staff team does not appreciate it when these rules are disrespected in such a manner to fulfill your own desires. **Staff do have the right to act outside these rules, if it is in the best interest of keeping the server running in a peaceful and efficient manner**. The staff’s word will have the final say.

Please **do not mini-mod in channels that staff answer in or otherwise act like a staff member if you aren’t one**. Do not call out others for their rule-breaking or bad behaviour: that only starts arguments. If you see someone breaking the rules, tell the staff as soon as possible and we'll take care of it.

**If you have any questions or need clarification about any of the rules, or even have suggestions for rules or plots please do not hesitate to ask a staff member** either by tagging them or messaging them.

To obtain full access to the server **you must give a password.** To do so, privately **message** an **owner**, **administrator**, or **moderator** (**blue** or **purple** usernames) with the following phrase: **“Eden’s grimy little raccoon hands.”** Please specify if you would like to be a **roleplayer** or **spectator** when you provide the phrase!

### Archive Rules

Welcome to the Camp Half-Blood Legacies’ Character Archives!

Here you can keep track of your character’s abilities and add descriptive details to bring them to life! In owning a character, you automatically agree and acknowledge the rules and terms below. Please make sure you read them. These rules are in agreement with the rules provided on the main server.

1. **The Administration team reserves the right to move/edit/delete your character’s channel as they see appropriate and fitting**. This means the team has the comprehensive rights to modify any aspect of your character’s channel that falls under the team’s dictation: names, godly parents, abilities, weapons, stat tables, and last edited labels are under our dictation.
	1. This, however, does not mean you do not hold responsibility for your own character. You are responsible for keeping your character’s information up to date and accurate, and you are responsible for any changes not made by the staff team. You are also responsible for requesting movements when necessary, and understand where and why you are moving them.
	2. If you do feel as if a decision made was unfair to you, you are welcome to bring it up to the one who made the decision. The staff team is happy to explain our thought process and we try to keep an open relationship with the members of the server.
2. **You are expected to abide by the stat table rules as listed in stat table info**, and use your abilities fairly and discreetly.
	1. Do not cheat the training system in any way. The staff are able to record this and give punishments accordingly if caught.
	2. The strength and durability of your character’s abilities are dependent on your stat table, which is why characters like Camryn Stark have far more control over their abilities than characters like Dalton Stiles, even though both are trained ranks.
3. **Your character channel is required to state the character’s name, godly parent, abilities, stat table, and last edited label**. Other details are optional, but in order to roleplay, you will need to have the necessary information in your channel. You are expected to have all this information updated within one week of addition. If your profile is not completed by the time the week is over, your character will be moved to Dormant #2 until the essential assets are added.
	1. Within the week time constraint, you are allowed to change your character’s name, godly parent, abilities, magical item, and last edited label.
	2. Once the week is over, you may no longer change any of the assets listed in #3a, with the exception of the last edited label.
	3. The character’s stat table may not be changed without having proof of the character’s training in the main server. If you have left the server previously, but have trained your character, you may find the completely unedited training post in a Google Doc or other text platform, and send it to staff, along with evidence that it was posted within a roleplay channel in the server.
		1. Your stat table MUST match the one listed under your character’s godly parent in the cabin tour when you create your character. This means that you cannot adjust the stats at all until you have trained your character.
4. **Your character may have between two to five abilities**, and all of the abilities can be found in cabin tour under your character’s godly parent. The stat table can be found in the same area as your character’s abilities.
5. **Your character may only have one magical *item***. The weapon may be given by their godly parent, by a child of Hephaestus, or even be an ancient Greek relic.
	1. The item may only have one magical property. Changing from one form to another is considered a magical property.
	2. Your item must have one of the three godly metals: Imperial Gold, Celestial Bronze, or Stygian Iron. The weapon may be an alloy of a godly metal and a regular material (for example, Imperial Gold and regular iron), but you must have staff permission in order to have such an item.
	3. Stygian Iron is reserved to children of Hades, Hecate, and Hephaestus only.
		1. You may not have an alloy of two godly metals, no matter what.
	4. In order to change your magical item, you must roleplay its destruction and then acquire a new one in roleplay. Gain permission from staff first before doing such.
6. **Characters can only be between five to twenty-one years of age**.
	1. Your character must leave camp before they turn twenty-two. However, aging your character up is entirely optional.
7. **Your character may have the same first or last name as another character’s**, but you may not have the same first and last name.
	1. You may not have the same name as a living higher ranked character at all. This is to completely ensure that higher ranked characters can be wholly identifiable by name only.
	2. No two characters in the same cabin may have the same first or last name unless they are related, in which the exception only pertains to the last name.
8. **Characters may have one horse or pegasi, and up to three pets of any kind**. They must be standard pets, such as cats, dogs, small mammals, fish, reptiles, birds, and the like. Members must gain Cabin Counselor permission before having a pet.
	1. Animal friends count as pets and therefore the same rules apply to them.
	2. Cabins can have pets that all of them take care of, but large exotic animals such as tigers and bears are not allowed. Small animals such as lemurs are okay.
		1. Cabin counselors must get staff permission before having a cabin pet.
9. **Do not make an attempt to claim other people’s characters as your own** unless given explicit permission from the roleplayer, and do not type in other people’s character channels unless they give you the explicit permission to do so.
	1. This change must be cleared with the staff.
	2. Two people cannot claim ownership over one character. The character must be RPed and managed by one person alone.
10. **Give credit for all of the art you put in your character’s channel**. You must cite any character creators you use on your profile. Though the design is yours, the art is not.
	1. Aesthetic photos do not count as an art that needs to be credited. However, if you use song lyrics, you must put the name of the song and artist somewhere.
11. **Deleting or moving a character to dormant is not permitted unless you have roleplayed them in at least one RP that isn’t them being claimed, leaving, or dying.**
	1. After you have roleplayed a RP post that is not the character being claimed, leaving, or dying, if you would like to have them removed, you must roleplay them either leaving or dying. Exceptions are permitted, such as having your character ‘fade into the background’, where they remain at camp but are not roleplayed.
	2. If you remove your character or move them to dormant in any way, you must wait one week before putting a new character into the same cabin.
12. Y**ou may not have two characters in the same cabin.**
13. **Your OC may only be demigod**; mortals, centaurs, nymphs, satyrs, or monsters are NPCs and may only be roleplayed as background characters.
	1. Your character cannot be the host of a primordial deity, or any other super natural spirit.
	2. The hunters of Artemis do not live in the camp, and therefore are not roleplayable.
	3. No character may be a legacy (the blood relative of two ancestral gods).
	4. Your character must be alive.
14. **Your OC may not be in a relationship with a half-sibling**. This is incest and forbidden in canon and on the server.
15. **The characters from the books exist in the server canon, but have all grown up and moved out of camp**. Your character may know about them, but may not have a relationship with them.
	1. The server roleplay is in the current year.
16. When in combat roleplay with another person, **you must fight fairly and use your abilities and stats to determine who wins**.
17. **Do not cheat the training system or otherwise change your character’s information once their week is over**. The staff monitor abilities and stats thoroughly, and any changes without approval will be met with consequence.
18. **You are expected to have all of the necessary information in your character’s channel by the end of the week of creation**, or your character will be moved to dormant until you update the information.
	1. As a refresher, the necessary information is the **character’s name, godly parent, abilities, stat table, and last edited label**.
	2. You may not roleplay your character until you have all of this information in their channel.
19. **Cabin Counselors are chosen by the staff for being knowledgeable about the server and a respected member of the community**. Please defer to them if there are no staff members present, should you have any questions or concerns. Staff members will be able to assist or give out consequences upon their arrival.
	1. If you are interested in applying to be a Cabin Counselor, you can find the application on the resources page or dm a staff member
20. **You are cordially requested to DM staff members if you have complaints about other members or their characters**. Do not confront them in public or privately, and allow the staff to handle it in full.

### High-Rank Rules

The list of High Ranks are as follows, in descending order of authority:

* **Cabin Counselors (20)**
* **Celestial (unlimited)**
* **Guardian (unlimited)**
* **Elektos (2)**
* **Oxedov (4)**
* **Hyperion (6)**
* **Oracle (1)**

The high-rank quota checks will be completed by Snips, Soot, and Kae, and will be completed the **first Sunday of every month**. Any appeals should be made to the owner (Snips) in charge.

* To ensure the process of quota runs smoothly, please incorporate either your character’s **full name**, or a common (not obscure) **nickname** of theirs. Whichever you choose, **be consistent**. Their namesake can either be embedded in the post itself, or at the end or beginning as an addendum.

The quota checkers thank you!

Failure to abide by these rules will result in the following consequences:

1. **Warning**
2. **Warning**
3. **Demotion + warning**
4. **Bans**
	1. **The list of ban lengths can be found here.**

*\*\*\*The list of rules is subject to change and below is the most recent day of update. High ranks will receive a message in #staff\_announcements if ever they are altered.\*\*\**

1. **High ranks must engage in roleplay consisting of at least two posts on their part with *at least one other roleplay partner*.** This will be done using their high ranking character and can be done over the span of the quota period (1 month\*).
	1. Posts should be substantial and not single-sentenced unless they are in high volume (over 10 posts in a session)
		1. Posts should be 3-5 sentences to be considered substantial.
	2. *Example*: **Sky**: Aura went to the store. She bought some soda and went to her cabin. Then, she read a book. **Blunny**: Lyra came to Athena’s cabin. She knocked and waited for Aura to let her in. When she did, the two talked about their siblings. **Sky**: Aura thought Lyra was funny. She didn’t like talking about boys, but she humored the cabin counselor of Apollo. She tried to change the subject to magic. **Blunny**: Lyra wasn’t sure why Aura didn’t like boys. She didn’t realize the Athena spawn was asexual. Even still, she thought the girl was good company.
	3. In the above, both Aura and Lyra have met their quota for the quota period!
	4. **Quota periods are the span of one month\*. On the first Sunday of every month, there will be an activity check to make sure all HRs have met their quota. Due dates.**
2. **Cabin counselors are appointed by staff based on their behavior and dedication to the server**. However, it should be noted that high ranks are not above the rules and run the risk of demotion after:
	1. Getting 2+ warnings
	2. Are seen abusing/harassing another member
	3. Do not meet their quota 3 times
	4. Take more than 2 hiatuses in a row
		1. This is a sum of 8 weeks in a row
	5. **The staff is aware things come up in life. We only ask that you let us know if you will be away from the server for an extended (2+ weeks) period.**
3. **Cabin counselors should appoint a stand-in if ever they will be gone for an extended period of time**
	1. Stand-ins should be announced if the hiatus will last longer than 5 days tops
	2. Stand-ins have the job of CCs like answering questions and attending monthly meetings.
	3. CCs must send a direct message to Soot, Riley, Yue, Matt or Snips if their hiatus is expected to last **longer than two weeks.**
4. **High ranking campers achieve their status through extensive roleplay and following the rules set up for point accumulation**. Cheating the system for extra points will not be tolerated and, in addition to a warning, the character will be demoted as seen fit by the staff.
5. **High ranks are allowed to help new roleplayers on the server; in fact, they are encouraged to set a good example and engage with them in roleplay.** However, minimodding, aka bossing members around, will not be tolerated and will result in a warning (see general rules above).
6. **High Rank announcements should be used for important, server- or cabin-wide announcements**. Specifics are as follows.
	1. Things you should *refrain* from posting about:
		1. Call-out posts
		2. Recruitment posts
		3. Anything about the *properties* (personality, backstory, face claim) of your character
	2. Things you *may* post about:
		1. Special-needs information requests
		2. Cabin servers: specific servers for the members of each cabin to join
		3. Cabin-wide rule updates
		4. **Hiatuses, including a projected timeline (when you’ll leave and return)**
7. **Cabin Counselors may make a suggestion for their replacement upon their resignation**
	1. The replacement should be someone whose character of the said cabin is active. They should also be a member who has upheld the CHB rules during their time with us.
	2. The staff reserves the right to reject a suggestion and open applications instead.
8. **Those applying for Cabin Counselor positions must meet the following requirements:**
	1. No warnings in the past month\*
	2. Active character for at least one month\*
	3. Upholds the rules of CHBL regularly
	4. Has not held a CC position in the past month\*
	5. **Please do not pester the staff about their timeline for choosing a CC.** Cabin counselors are important pieces of our community; therefore, one cannot be chosen by default. If more than one member applies, the staff will use our discretion to pick the one who best fits the needs required by said role.
9. **There is a mandatory once-a-month meeting that HRs must attend.** It will be held in the big house and will serve as a means of recapping the month. The meeting will span the entire weekend, starting at 9:00 am EST on Friday through 9:00 pm EST on Sunday. HRs are required to make at least ***one*** post with the necessary information.
	1. Cabin Counselors will review any problems or successes in their cabin
		1. If you cannot attend as a CC, let any staff from department 1 (Snips, Soot, or Riley) know and appoint a stand-in.
	2. Trained ranks will detail any security issues or updates to their job
	3. The meetings will be held the first weekend of the month.

**\****One month is equivalent to 30 days.*
