Cygna Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Defense reports need to be maintained in proper format, please.Thank you to all who actually do follow the proper format.For those of you who don't understand, click here.For extended proper format orientation, click here.Proper Format ExampleTopic Title: 110309 / 0532 - 0644Topic Description: Geodan PricePlease remember all spacing and use of the slash and hyphen. Time is SLT 24-hourSome useful hints and tipsTimes are SLT 24 hour time, therefore AM/PM are not needed.Useless brackets are useless "[" "]"Putting a hyphen, "-", is faster than typing "to". It is also the proper format to use a hyphen.Remember your topic descriptions, which should be name of attacker(s) or name of attacking group(s).Thanks to Tokeli's wonderful choice, I removed the requirement of a colon ":". 24-hour time does not need a colon. My bad.Remember the slash "/" between the date and time so the topic title is not a long smudge of numbers.TL;DR - fix your defense report topic titles!

Tokeli Zabelin Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Ten bucks people will totally ignore this and the forum will never be this neat little row of identical titles. ;.; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Bleac Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) Is this truly necessary? All information is delivered properly through the combat report form already. But I understand that discipline and uniformity is important in reports, so I get your point. Individuals will always have a slightly differing style of creating a report.

Hunter Abrams Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Shame my last report was a copy past from Mercury that Aryte gave me. Acording to this. Even mercury is wrong in its format. I will say this I have been doing the Titles wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
