Welcome to Squad 5
This project was originally started by Hugh back in 2012. Now, with the announcement of Community Development, we are bringing it back as a way to high-five our community members that are having a positive influence on NS2!
What earns me Squad 5?
You can do lots of things to earn yourself a Squad 5 badge. Making a cool mod, fixing a notable bug, creating an excellent map, being helpful around the forums, creating a good environment for rookies (and everyone else!) could earn you a Squad 5 badge.
How do I get nominated for Squad 5?
You can nominate yourself or you can be nominated by someone else. If you are nominating someone else, please be sure to include their forum username with your post. The post must include some kind of proof for the good deeds that you have done. Nobody will be awarded a Squad 5 badge without adequate proof.
Who hands out the Squad 5 badges?
Members of the Community Development team, as well as forum mods, prominent community members and possibly UWE will weigh in and discuss the nominated users and come to an agreement about the final recipients. They will be given out in rounds, periodically, just like how it was done originally when this program was first introduced.
How do I get different colors of Squad 5 badge?
The first time you are given a badge, you will receive the blue Squad 5 badge. If you do something else that is awesome enough to earn another Squad 5 badge, we will upgrade you from blue to silver. The golden Squad 5 badge is reserved for those who do something that is really quite awesome and significantly notable. It is not out of reach, but it must be something great!
Any rules?
Please, no bashing & no begging.

Though it would have been more effective when we had higher player counts, still nice thing to have.
The proofes for this ppl can be found at multiple places in this forum
@Soul_rider - We gave Ghoul Squad 5 last night for his work on NS2 Stats & Shine
1) Hosted one of the best community servers, i have had tons of fun there, and so have tons of other people
2) For being an awesome guy, he is willing to make people custom xhairs and he has xD
3) Hes also a PT making himself more known through that
4) GORGES NEED LOVE
Blind - For his participation in the NSL, admining & casting. Major contributions to producing the NS2WC stream.
jiriki - For devoting personal resources in maintaining the NSL.
swalk - Started Season 1 of the NSL and was league admin for a few seasons after.
Seb & the Australian co - I'm not really sure the entire leadership of the AusNS2 League, but those guys deserve some recognition for maintaining their community and generally great casting of their own matches. Can't wait for Season 3!
Powers that be.. sort their badge colours.
Is this even the right thread? lol
