We have made some changes to our ranking configuration. Members who have become eligible for promotion will be contacted first by email to get permission to accept the new promotion.
Guest
An individual who is a registered member of our community.
Jedi Apprentice
Posting no longer determines rank.
There are currently two ways to become a Jedi Apprentice. The first is to be nominated by a ranking member with the minimum rank of Jedi Knight Officer. That option rests upon your ability to relay your sincerity of purpose and motive.
The second way is to petition the Jedi High Council to be tested. You must be a posting member in order to request the test. You will be sent a minimum of five essay questions to which the answers will be scrutinized by the Jedi High Council.
If you are accepted, you will have access to our private Training Center where courses are posted by multiple instructors with personal assistance available as needed. On a very limited basis an instructor may take on a personal Apprentice or two, although participation is still required in the Training Center.
Jedi Knight
Demonstrates a keen desire to excel in the path of Jediism. Participates proactively in the forum and demonstrates a continuing growth toward adeptship in the Jedi Arts. Is helpful and has become a valued member of the Jedi Community through merit. An awarded rank of Jedi Knight denotes the Jedi High Council's belief that the receiver may become a candidate for the ranking of either a Jedi Knight Officer, a Jedi Scholar or Jedi Knight Commander, based on their own striving and merit. A JHC-endorsed Jedi Knight is on an upward path and subsequently will be scrutinized more closely by the JHC - it is not a guarantee that they will evolve past that post. This is not up to the Jedi Council, but to each one individually through their own striving and merit.
Jedi Knight Officer
A Jedi Knight who has proven himself with leadership abilities and has become of great assistance to the Jedi High Council. On an upward scale and willing to accept more responsibilities, and offers much of himself/herself in helping the Jedi High Council to achieve their administrative and organizational duties. Able to nominate guests to Jedi Apprentice (ratified by the High Council.)
Jedi Knight Commander, Jedi Scholar
Both positions denote a unshakeable devotion to the path, adherence to the code, and a willingness to help the Jedi High Council as well as the worldwide community at large. May elect to be a teacher for Jedi apprentices. All upgrades will have to be approved. Jedi Knight Commanders and Jedi Scholars are eligible to apply themselves to the rank of Jedi Master, and therefore either observe that title in solitude or be eligible for a tenure on the Jedi High Council.
Jedi Master, Jedi Priest
A scholar or knight commander who has demonstrated a mastery that far exceeds an intellectual grasp of the Jedi teachings - the heart is also engaged. He/she has become the teaching, and is living the Code. Demonstrates leadership and an unshakeable faith in the Force and allegiance to the Light that is unquestionable. Moves through life without fear. Is a living example of the embodiment of Jedi.
