I was playing Fallout 3 again and starting speaking to the Brotherhood of Steel people. They started mentioning the "Order of the X" and I thought to myself "that would be amazing for the Grimblades."

So I starting thinking about the three orders the brotherhood had, and started thinking how we could implement them into the Grimblades to make it fun and exiting. Here's what I got, feel free to add anything:

Order of the Quill:
For this I had the idea of keeping it roughly the same as in the game. Any member we make part of this Order, would have access some of the old and blocked topics (not council thread) in order for them to make a Grimblades history and to in turn post it on the Meeting Hall for everyone to see. They will be able to let their imagination run wild as long as they stay within reason.

For instance, the Abe incident could be a rival Guild or something :)

Order of the Sword:
This group would be in charge of attracting new members by going to loads of forums etc. This does not stop other people from advertising, they're just in charge and should do it more often. The Order of the Sword would also have some moderating controls in the Contracts and should generally be the first to comment on a contract.

Order of the Shield:
This was the hardest to think of, but I think I have something good. The Order of the Shield would compliment the Order of the Sword by making sure that new members stay. That mean greeting them and showing them around. Basically, where as the Sword gets members, the Shield keeps them :D

OK, so basically the idea I came up with and Mike agreed to is to make new User Groups for the Grimblades! Mike and I both agree this will help bring members in and to keep them here.

Because of this, a few minor changes will happen on the forum. Firstly, we will be adding a new subforum for guests to make topics to introduce themselves. This will make it a lot easier for guests to introduce themselves instead of having to navigate through ten different screens.

I'll also be adding an "Orders" section.

Secondly, new groups will be added, as I said before. The only way to join these groups are to apply via the Orders section. These new groups will have slightly enhanced abilities over normal members (able to see extra topics etc) and should enhance the feeling of the Grimblades!

First though, a note. The Order of the Quill is there to write down the Grimblades history. I, the Proctor of the Quill, will hand out pieces of old information I deem OK from the forum, and you can search yourselves. All additions to History must be passed through the Order of the Quill category (yet to be added)

This will be all up and ready by Tuesday at the very latest. When it's all up and running, you may all start applying for places in the Orders!

I decided to just do it now. Everything's ready!
