www.24th-meu.com 24th MEU History - A note from Capt. J. Shields: Welcome to the 24th Marine Expeditionary recruit depot! I am the MEU Commander, Captain John Shields. If you've come to join the best (and most fun) tactical realism unit on the web, you've come to the right place.The 24th MEU began in 2005 with Battlefield 2 and has expanded with numerous titles, with a high level of activity. You might be asking, who the hell is this John Shields guy and why would I follow him into battle? Visit the following link for a brief BIO of me. I've edited it out of the recruitment message here to cut down on the wall of text. Recruitment Standards It is the goal of this unit to provide our membership with a fun environment in which friendships can be forged. To do this it will be necessary to have certain recruitment restrictions in place. The following are requirements of membership: 1. You must be active in the community here, on TeamSpeak, and on our private website. 2. You must be at LEAST 18 years of age. 3. You must be a mature member of this community and ours and follow all established rules. Now... there's one last thing worth noting and that's FUN. This is after all a game. This isn't real life, though with each added member they bring their own traits to the pile and we experience who they are and what they're about. We pick up on some of their pro's and sometimes it helps to improve each of us as individuals. But without fun then this is a chore. You'll soon find yourself burned out and doing only the bare minimum to get by. Entertainment is the key to surviving any game. We want you to have fun here above all else. At the same time we know that true life comes first. We will never expect you to throw down what you're doing in real life and be here. It's unfair and does damage you wont see for many years. I learned my lesson from past experiences that I needed to balance my own life and fun to really enjoy these games and organizations I was a part of. I noticed right off the bat that some demanded more than others and that I ultimately got tired of those places. I want each and every member here to WANT to be here. I want you to feel the desire to put forth the extra effort when you can, and contribute to this team. Now if that sounds like you, and I apologize that it's so lengthy. Then by all means make the leap to enlist. If you should have any questions do NOT hesitate to ask prior to joining up. I want each and every applicant to make informed decision and that starts with knowing the answers to your many questions. Recruitment Steps The first step to enlistment is to register on the 24th MEU website (www.24th-meu.com). I ask that everyone wanting to join register with their in-game names. We here at the MEU utilize a realistic naming system. All members are either First Name, Last Name or First Initial, Last Name. Please note that this does not have to be your real name. For example: J. Shields John Shields Next, navigate to our Recruitment page and fill out the short 1 minute application. Send it off and you should receive a confirmation. Then you need only wait for a response from one of the Recruitment Officers. Feel free to post into this thread to let us know that you submitted an application to speed up the process. We recommend that during the process ALL applicants join our TeamSpeak 3 server to get to know everyone. That information will be provided below. Teamspeak 3 Information Greetings Marines. Headquarters has authorized the release of the access codes to the 24th MEU's Communications. Please contact them by the following: 1. Download the client. You have two choices, either the 32 bit (XP), or 64 bit (Vista/7). Here is the download link (be concerned with ONLY the two top choices... either 32 or 64 bit): Link 2. Install the downloaded .exe after agreeing to the user agreement. 3. Load up TeamSpeak and you'll be asked for information (this is for how you'll talk and the volume levels). After you complete that set up, you need to click "Connections" at the top left. 4. The next popup window will ask for the server information and your username. It should be as follows: Address: ts11.gameservers.com:9134 Nickname: (Your Rank/Abbreviation and Name) Password: 24thmeu *Make sure you use the exact password above with the exact capitalization.* 5. Once connected (by hitting "Connect") you NEED to click on the small green eyeball icon at the top in order to view all of the TeamSpeak channel users. Each channel will have a small icon next to them with a blue/white check (so that you know you've done it correctly). 6. You're done. You can mess around with the sound settings to use Push to Talk or Voice Activation and set the volume levels. The rest is for the Admins to take care (they can be identified with an "S" next to their name) So speak to them if you have any problems. Look forward to seeing you all over there! EDIT: If you minimize TeamSpeak, it will show up on your taskbar by your clock as a small circle. Double click to bring it back to the front. So don't worry, it didn't disappear!
