While Carrier Pigeons are cool and flying around the sectors of Vulcan is tons of fun, Vortex Security: Carrier Pigeons is not actually the CP we plan to introduce. So say goodbye to the Carrier Pigeons, and say hello to a reform!

1. New Promotion System
Introduction -
Here’s the real CP we’re talking about - CP and IP. Combat Points and Intelligence Points. This is theoretically a revamped version of the AP/CP system from 2012. CP will be awarded at training places, defenses, raids, etcetera for excelling in combat. IP will be awarded at training places, defenses, raids, etcetera as well, but for showing maturity, leadership skills, and the ability to work in a team.
Note -
Anyone currently in these ranks will be given the corresponding amount of CP and IP necessary to have obtained that rank:
--LR--
Recruit - automatic
Private - 3 CP, 3 IP
Private First Class- 5 CP, 5 IP
Specialist- 8 CP, 8 IP
Corporal- 15 CP, 13 IP
Sergeant- 20 CP, 18 IP
Sergeant Major- 30 CP, 25 IP
Lieutenant- 40 CP, 35 IP
Captain - 50 CP, 50 IP
--HR--
Colonel- elected upon agreement
Lieutenant General- hand selected by Lilly
General- hand selected by Lilly
Autarch- hand selected by Lilly
Benevolent Leader- handed down by Lilly
Addition of CP -
Superburke1 is nearing completion of a website database for storing CP and IP. It will be extremely easy for highranks to add CP and IP. Highranks are expected to be generous with CP, as in giving it out more than they did with AP. CP is rewarded for combat skill. The maximum amount of CP that can be added by a highrank for one player at any time is 3 per event. This means that if I wanted to award CP to RyanRules4 for doing well in combat, I would give him 3 CP maximum.
Subtraction of CP -
CP may be taken away at the discretion of highranks for offenses such as being disobedient at training, going AFK during raids (without prior notice), opening gates for raiders at Vulcan, etcetera; anything that can impede combat of Vortex Security can cause the subtraction of CP from the player in question. Only 3 CP maximum may be taken away from someone per offense.
Addition of IP -
IP may be awarded for showing maturity, leadership skills, and teamworking abilities at raids, defenses, and trainings. There is a 3 IP maximum per event per user, just like with CP. For example: If I awarded effward 3 IP for showing excellent leadership skills while defending Vulcan, I could not give him 3 more IP for that same event. If he later went to a training I was hosting, I could give him 3 more IP for being mature there.
Subtraction of IP -
Similarly to CP, IP may be taken away for immaturity, insubordination (disobeying orders), disrespect, etc. IP subtraction also has a maximum of 3.

5. Changes to Fort Vulcan
Recently, a lot of people have been complaining about the level system being unfair. Which, we acknowledge, is a stupid complaint. However, to accommodate both those who have spent lots of time at Vulcan to obtain their levels and those who find levels to be unfair, we are adding a kill requirement to purchasing guns. This way, certain guns will still be exclusive to levels, but you cannot just enter a server and have a minigun. This update should be complete sometime this week.
In addition, the Carrier Pigeon stuff will be removed.
