Reasons they deserve this award -Since my start with KSI this year Fuzzymeep has been there during 3 difficult times for me. He has never felt that the position he holds made him untouchable. The first response I recieved from him I was just a CPL, the second a SSGT, and the third a 3CPT. The first was encouraging words in a message that I have carried with me and used to start stepping out and working up the ranks. The second was when I was kicked off parts of forum's and because he had corresponded with me to get my group and emote picked I contacted him. It was in the middle of this mess that when my 7 asked me how it was going about getting back on so I could document gamenights, I told him who was helping me. His reaction was, "do you know who that is? That's the highest ranking person in all of KSI". I immediately contacted FuzzyMeep and explained I had no clue who he was and apologized for bothering him on such small matters. He reassured me it was no bother and the important thing was to get me back on forums. He then stayed up till almost 2 am till he got it fixed. I don't know of any other CEO's of companies that would care enough to help an entry level employee with IT problems lol. The third one is on a much more personal level,. He is helping me get through some RL stuff and this has truly let me know that he is there for me, anytime. When we say KSI is a family, fuzzymeep does not just say it, he lives it.

Reasons they deserve this award - As a division leader he cares. He gets to know each member and never shows bias from one to the other. He always looks for the good in people and never over emphasizes the bad. He steps back and observes, learns the whole situation and does not jump in to make knee jerk decisions. I am looking forward to working and learning more from him as I step out to step up.

Reasons they deserve this award - Dragons is an incredible leader. He watches everything. Anytime something may start to go in a not so great direction on discord, whether it be divisional or squad level, he swoops in to defuse the situation. I'm serious, he never shrinks back hoping another officer will deal with it. I really don't know how he does it except that he makes DM a 24 hour priority. He sees and hears everything and knows exactly what's going on in DM. He never flexes his authority muscle to deal with the issues but always does it on a personal and caring level. I can only hope to learn how he does this and be half as good as he is at it some day.

Reasons they deserve this award: From the moment Romeo recruited me at the tower in Destiny 2 to this very minute he has trained me, mentored me, corrected me, and cared about me every moment. Even when I feel I let him down due to my own insecurities, and did not step up to be the officer that he knew I could be, he did not write me off or give up on me,. He still invested lots of time and "heartwork" to get me to come out of my shell. And I am so glad that he did. I still have lots of doubts about myself but he is always there to work them through with me. He goes way above and beyond to help his squad, for example, I know of 2 situations in which gamers have found themselves homeless and out of income and Romeo has jumped in both times and found them apartments and a job but the relocation was too much for these members to deal with. On a smaller side, Romeo knows I use my hotspot on my phone for my gaming internet due to being in a location were we dont get internet so if I get on my phone it will kick me off . During game nights, even if he works, he always jumps in and takes picks of party for me to help me with my attendance taking. Even as busy as he is as a Co-Fo now he still does so many caring things that may seem small but mean a lot to his squad. I am confident in saying that I am positive I could not have had a better General to mentor me through this year. If it had not been for Romeo I am not sure I would still be in KSI and I know I would never have moved up from SGT.

Reasons they deserve this award: CasualTee has hit the ground running since he came to Venom. We have 86 members in Venom and only 5 officers. He has jumped in and taken care of so much of the work load such as promotions and gamenights. And one of the best qualities about CasualTee is you can count on him. It is so refreshing to have a fellow officer that goes above and beyond eagerly to help.

Reasons they deserve this award: MetalPlans is an incredible asset to our officers team. He has so much heart. He cares about each member on an individual basis. They are not members to him but family. He does his work and pulls his weight in promoting and gamenights but then he also is a special friend to our members who are going through RL. He doesn't hesitate to reach out to one if there is a hint of sadness or hardship on discord or in a party. He shared with me yesterday that in one extreme case he didn't know for sure what to say he just knew he had to say something. This guy has a great work ethic and an even greater heart.

Reasons they deserve this award: Let me start by saying that l love this member so very much. When I first came into KSI he was my CoFo. Now that I understand the ranking system and all the responsibilities of the higher ranks it is totally unbelievable to me the depth that Joe got to know his members. He was always on and always making sure everyone was treated right and having a great time. He stepped down for the good of the div when RL took a real nasty turn for the worst for him. Yet he stayed on encouraging and helping anywhere and everywhere he could. Again RL has sucker punched him in the face and when he was talking to me about his RL his number one concern was still the members. Through tears, in my eyes I read his message back to me "please make sure the younger ones know that I care". In my opinion, he deserves OS lvl everything.
