Kaek told me the other day that it was the best day of his DB career. The Super AWOL had started, and Kaek would soon be allowed to start deleting dossiers. It's his favorite past time, and I could definately feel the excitement. He said at one pont that the only thing that could make the day better was if he got promoted. I said to myself "if only you knew."
<br>
<br>There have been 4-5 people come to me in the past week that have stated that Kaek deserved to be promoted. I myself have noted on more than one occasion that Kaek needed it. I am more than happy today to act on all of those requests.
<br>
<br>Kaek first jumped on the scene in front of me a few months ago when Corran Force resigned. I did not know him well at all, but had heard good things through Mav and others. I have to say, after reading his MAA application and talking with him, I admired his enthusiasm, work ethic and personality. Kaek is a one-of-a-kind asset in this club. He has a vision unlike many others in that he knows what needs to be done in his position to take it to the next level. For example, Kaek is now working on a very detailed MAA manual that will help in transitions of future MAAs. He is making it so detailed that any peron who can read should be able to do the job after going through it. As P:MAA, Kaek is always timely. He does not wait to respond to emails. he is always thorough when examining requests. Along side Khan, Kaek helps to make a very strong MAA office. They are fair, formal and fast. Kaek has a large part of that to his credit.
<br>
<br>It's not all P:MAA for Kaek, though. The man works hard as Proconsul of Arcona as well. Consul Halcyon agrees that Kaek deserves a promotion. He has been influential in communicating with members and running events in the clan. He is able to hold a hard position of PCON while also juggling the duties of P:MAA. It's truly a task for the strong.
<br>
<br>Truly a testament to the way Kaek works was the Super AWOL check. In order to send out the 2700 emails to the members, we needed to send 200 every half hour so as to not get marked as spammers. Kaek volunteered without me asking and gave an entire day to the job. When I had to leave early he did not complain, but instead took over the task with enthusiasm. That to me was the mark of a truly dedicated leader.
<br>
<br>I cannot think of a person more deserving of a promotion today. Thus, it is my distinct pleasure to elevate Kaek to the rank of Sith Overlord. Congratulations, and thanks!
