Hi Everyone! :) Would Like to JOIN PMS!!!

[sapphiretearz]

Hi There! I'd like to be recruited for PMS ASAP! I was so upset the other day, discussing about why Gear of Wars removed their original plan of making Anya as a playable female character.. and I did some internet searching and found the article on the Boycott of Miss Gamer.. regarding PMS and The Frag Dolls. Way to go!!
So now here I am.. I want to support our cause for female gamers!! ( I also have a 5 year old daughter who also plays XBL). I have read the rules and description on recruitment and orientation. My only concern is that I work FT and I also homeschool my 2 kids.. My available time to orient would be in the evenings to very late night. I hope that I can still be eligible to try. Thanks so much! I look forward to meeting you all online! Thanks again

[PMS Solincia]

Welcome to the PMS Clan! We look forward to your recruitment! One of the Recruitment managers will be along soon to give you the details!!

Where do you live? We run all of the practices in Central time <I'm eastern standard, so if it starts at 8pm, it's 9pm for me> so there is no confusion.

We have plenty of late night gamers, no worries!! In fact, I work full-time retail management <ugh!> so I'm usually on after 9-10pm. Trust me, we understand! You'll find plenty of mothers here too who understand! Way to go for YOU on homeschooling, that's awesome!!!

Take care, and welcome again!!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I'm actually quite nervous and excited at the same time.lol. I can't wait to get on board and add PMS to my linkedin.com profile! Ha! It would be nice to meet other homeschool moms that are part of this clan. Many homeschool moms in my area (currently orlando, Florida, though I'm from the boston area) are not really into gaming like me, so this is kind of a lonely tread for me. .. But I knew you guys existed, somewhere!! LOL !!

Also, Quick Question.. If I am a member, do I need to change my Gamertag to include the clan name? I would like to keep just my name if I can...

[Juicyyy]

Heyyy there!! Welcome to the community!! It's always awesome to see new halo girls!! I'm one of those late night gamers and we have late night practices! So no worries there!! As far as your gamertag goes, you're welcome to have it whatever you want! Hope to see you very soon!

Like MsJuicy said, you can keep your gamertag the way it is. We have many ladies who choose not to have the PMS tag in their name, and that's cool.

Other ladies like to "choose" a new gamertag name to symbolize their entrance into the clan.

For instance, Eclipse Tiger just became PMS Eclipse, SumoMonkey became PMS PipSq3ak.....

It's all a choice, no worries!

Welcome!!! Hope to see you in practice! ^^

Welcome to the forums. Look forward to seeing you in practice.
That's awesome you home school your daughter. I was home schooled for junior high and high school.

[sapphiretearz]

Yep, I'm kind of new to the homeschooling thing. This is only my 2nd year.The first year I was a mess! I had no idea what I was suppose to be doing! lol. I try to be organized and when I started the HS thing, I was so frazzled, I was a total trip! I'm just now starting to get the hang of it with the portfolio and keeping the journal/documents thing. I keep falling behind though because I also work FT as a Manager at a hotel, and not currently in school anymore. Thank God I work days now too and not nights and can go on XBL at night. I'm not able to go every night but I hope to make the first practice and rounds. I do have to say that I'm having a little bit of trouble navigating through the forums here. What do you suggest is the best method to check recent posts? Follow a specific post, etc? I sign in right away when I get to the forum, but how do I go straight to see others post for the recent days , etc? I use to be so good at this stuff several years ago. lol!

[Juicyyy]

The forums are somewhat confusing and hard to navigate at first! You can subscribe to certain threads if you're really interested in keeping up with what's posted! Other then that, I would just kinda visit every part of the forums.. get a feel of where everything is. After a little bit you will just get used to it!

[sapphiretearz]

Thanks! I plan on being at recruit practice tomorrow- I'll be on eastern time Orlando, Fl.. When I was reading the recruitment directions, It didnt mention about posting the application on the help link, (Which I did get to do) .. Is there anything else I'm missing or that I should be reading beside instructions listed in the "Want to joing the PMS Clan/ Xbox division area" ? I'm still learning the site- although I am finally starting to pick up on it, so any other topix that are mandatory to be read - please let me know, if I've overlooked, but I believe I've read all related topics. I have read the handbook and recruitment instructions as well - Thanks !

[PMS Solincia]

Nope, you're doing pretty good. I know navigating the forums at first can seem a little complicated, don't worry! You'll get the hang of it.

Please though, send me a friend request so that I can send you an invite to tomorrows recruit practice!

I am in the recruitment process as well and yes, the forums are tricky at first! I am still banking that I did everything I needed to as well! What hotel are you a manager of? Im the general manager of a Convention Associates in Colorado, we are a destination management company and I am sending a few groups to Orlando this year, and a smaller one to Boston! It nice knowing you can still be professional and game on the side But my co-workers don't know that Hope to see you tonight!

[PMS Mz Chaos]

Hello and welcome!! This site can very overwhelming at first, a lot of times I reply to things I find and when I want to check it I'm like "Oh wow where did I see that?" I have to go click and view all posts I have made to find things at times!! Haha!!

[Wifey]

Hey! Welcome and hope to play with you soon!

[sapphiretearz]
