The following information only pertains to individuals who wish to transfer a character from another board with the intention of starting at a rank higher than recruit. Please see our Ranking System for details on our power tiers. If you are transferring from another site, but want to start on the bottom tier, you do not need to request a transfer.
Please keep the following guidelines in mind as you are requesting your transfer:
1. If you are wanting to start at a rank higher than recruit, it is expected that you be able to show proof of your role-playing history with the character you are transferring. Any RPing history that you are wanting to bring with you to MEG must come with some kind of documentation in the form of links to threads from your previous board where the RP was conducted. We would like to see at least three links to previous role plays that you have done with your character. It is preferred that these be completed threads. Completed threads shine more favorably than abandoned ones. Providing a brief explanation of the content in each provided link will be appreciated.
2. We currently ALLOW transfers with characters from non-Mass Effect sites. To have a character approved for a higher rank that is from a non-ME board, we will expect that you are going to mold your character's history from the previous board to fit the Mass Effect setting. We would like at least a general explanation in your request as to how you plan on altering specific parts of your history to fit ME lore.
3. It is possible that we may reach out to the administration of your previous or current board to verify your posting activity and history. Whether this is done will be dependent on individual circumstances, but please be aware that it is a possibility. This will most likely be done in cases where there is not enough proof (ie, links) to your RP history, (Particularly in cases where a board may have experienced a glitch and lost much of its content).
4. The administration reserves the right to approve or deny rank transfers at their discretion, after appropriate discussion, research, and review. Once made, all decisions are final. You can only request a rank transfer once per character.
5. The highest rank a character can transfer to is renegade or paragon. Requests for exemplar rank will never be approved. The higher the rank you are hoping to transfer to, the more detail and content we will expect to see in your request.
6. Generally, what we will be considering is:
- Content and quality of role play and sportsmanship
- Evidence of growth in your character's development over time
- Consistency in activity over a reasonable period of time, and dedication to finishing threads
Please submit formal requests in the Private Reports sub-forum of the Support Kiosk forum. Be sure to include your links, brief summary of the character's RP history, history alteration explanations (if applicable), and desired rank in the thread. Do not use the private messaging or chat systems, whether on or off the board, to request a rank transfer. All requests must be submitted formally through the Private Reports forum.
