Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason/Evidence: Venum is fully deserving of this award. To start off, he is a Division Leader, Forums Mod, and the Head of Performance Operations. As a division leader, he is pushing towards success and encouraging all of his members to get up and be the change. With two thriving squads in Samurai and Elysium, the division is pushing towards being as great as it once was.
 

Next, as a Forums Mod, he uses his ability to navigate and know the site like the back of his hand. He uses that to help members with forums related problems and guide them in the right direction. 
 

Finally, as the Head of Performance Operations, he is the driving force of the new turn around of the whole department. After the former head went MIA, Venum stepped up to the plate and took on the department. He has reworked the STP program as well as some of the CEP workshops that are used today by mostly everyone in the community. He has an amazing staff below him that bounces ideas off him to get the best out of PO.

 

So with all of this, Venum is impacting the community in many ways and truly expresses what a true leader is like.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason/Evidence: I have only know VENUM for a short time, though it feels like longer than that. I met him through Performance Operations. As a specialist, VENUM opened up a whole new side of KSI for me. He knew we were in a new environment and actually new division (for myself). I never felt like I was just air dropped in and let loose on my own. He was in constant contact with me and was readily able to answer any question I had, or help stimulating officers to work with PO. VENUM is very knowledgeable in the area of forums and the inner workings of KSI in the education arena. He is never shy in sharing his vast knowledge and is always friendly and approachable. I have learned many things from VENUM in the short time of knowing him. He is what KSI is all about, for he has the knowledge and the strength where needed and he displays great integrity. This is what KSI stands for at its finest.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason/Evidence: First off I would just like to say Venum truly deserves this award. The things he does in the community is amazing, you can tell he cares and he’s always on top of things. He is always checking up on you and making sure things are all alright. I’ve known Venum for about as long as I’ve been in KSI which is a year and a few months. I just find it amazing how he can handle all the situations that sometimes happens, he knows how to handle them and is very calm in them. He is always down to game with you but at the same time does his job in KSI. He is just really easy to talk to and he works his ass off for the community. All in all, he deserves it.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason: Since I have rejoined KSI. KSI Venum 7 as shown me great knowledge and positivity. When i rejoined KSI I was not shore about going up the ranks. I was also not shore about joining a department. But when started to talk with Venum about raking up and joining a department. He helped me realize that this current KSI is not the old KSI and after that I started to enjoy. The idea of ranking up again and I realized that it was time I stop thinking of being apart of a department and join a department and you know what it turns out I love being apart of productions.

Sorry if i repeated myself to much. This is the first time I have opened up like this.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason/Evidence: Ive known Venum for a few months now, and without a doubt its easy to say what a Leader we have here.  Ive been around in parties with him quite often and to the extent he goes for his Division is beyond amazing.  He has shown his great leadership skills in every situation that had come up, put use to his vast knowledge to be able to help anyone and everyone in any instance.  While I dont really know the role Venum plays outside of our Division, DW, I can say seeing the role he plays inside, I cant imagine why it wouldnt be more than elligable for the OS Lvl 3 he is going up for.  

 

In my opinion, Venum has produced such an environment here for not only me, but every member he hold in DW, that has really come to show Venum for who he is.  While he can go by the book and do what he needs to do, he also has shown himself not just being a leader but a great peer as well.  He attends game nights, meetings, often enough ive been invited to random parties by him and play games or just talk for hours.  Which in this, I believe can be one of the best strengths anyone can have in his position.  

 

I truely believe DW would not be what it is today without the influence and prespective Venum has given us.  And I surely think I wouldnt be here posting this if it wasnt for him either.  To come to the conclusion, while I know I can touch more on other topics, this is all in all why i believe Venum 7 is the best candidate for the Oustanding Service Award.

[KSI Gruntier 7 152]

When I first became Venoms director I didn’t know what really to expect. I didn’t know if he would welcome my help or if he would bat me away and keep me at arms length. To my pleasant surprise he welcomed me into DW with open arms but most importantly he was very candid about everything in DW the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is a very good quality for a leader to have being open and honest this quality helps him stand out from some of the other leaders I’ve known in the past that like to hide things and hope that they go away.

Moving on Venom definitely had his hands full running DW,PO and a rejoin mod. (at the time now he's a forums mod) DW wasn’t in the greatest shape but he had a positive attitude and wasn’t about to give up. Venom didn’t have the best of help but he didn’t care his main focus was to make DW the best that he could. He had a lot of good people in DW that were willing to follow him on this journey, he had a solid foundation to work with just needed a little help. Every time I would offer him a piece of advice he would listen and adapt it to best serve DW's needs. There have been plenty of obstacles along the way but throughout it all he has never given up he sees a vision of what DW can be and won’t stop until that comes to fruition. 

As I stated before he has had more than a few setbacks had people step down others had real life come up so he stepped up to the plate and helped keep things stable. It wasn’t easy to say the least but he always kept a positive attitude and that infectious attitude spread down to the rest of his people. He had to basically get all new Gens up, (save one) a new 7's staff which I’m pleased to say happened just this last week, and most importantly straighten out the officer staffs across all the squads which they are better than ever. (at least since I’ve been a part of DW) He did have to make some tough calls like merging some squads and getting rid of inactive members but it is always what’s best for his division. DW still has a ways to go to reach its true potential but within a few months time he’s managed to accomplish this much given a few more months of hard work and determination I can’t wait to see what he continues to do with his division. Venom doesn’t hesitate if something needs to be done he’s always the first to dig in and get things done. The people in DW respect him because he leads by example and shows them respect.

 
I can’t speak too much on the PO side of things I know that since he has taken over it has improved a lot. He loosened the power grip (for lack of a better phrase) of pushing for more and more power for the sake of being necessary vs what is good for the members. He doesn’t care about the title of being head of PO his only concern is how his department can help KSI as a whole and has been rebuilding it and getting the best people for the job. It truly is a different department that what it was a year or so ago. I believe that he truly wants to help and in doing so is Venom being outstanding in both can ops and PO which in my opinion makes him more than worthy for OS level 3 and I believe that if he keeps it up he will continue to have a bright future in KSI.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3)

Reason/Evidence:

I believe he has earned the OS Lvl 3 because of everything he has done. He has went above and beyond in my opinion. Anything that needs to be done no matter how easy or hard is does it. He has trained and mentored tons of people who are very successful in KSI.

If there’s anyone in this community that deserves their OS3 it’s Vennii. He has always been there for me whether it’s to give advice and guidance on personal life issues when i’ve asked for it, or to advise me on how to be a more effective and efficient officer when i was one.. He taught me how to present myself in a better manner. 

 

He always makes time for every member regardless of who they are and will drop what he is doing in a heartbeat to help them. Vennii constantly encourages others to reach the potential they can’t see in themselves. He’s a kind, genuine, patient soul, he’s respectful, courteous and above all else he is fair. He is also extremely humorous and is always there with a fresh scoop of banter and jokes. He is always down to game or just to chill. 

 

When there is a time a conversation needs to be had he will make sure he makes the time for it. He is the kind of person that sees the good in everyone and won’t give up on someone even if they seem to have given up on themselves, he will always give them chances and advice on how to improve on things and guide them on their way to be better more effective versions of themselves. He’s an inspirational person to look up to both as a superior and a friend and it’s truly a privilege to be in the same division as him. I aspire to be as effective and honest as VenVen one day as i feel he is a great leader and team player.

[KSI xKing 7DS 795]

Venum.. I met my homie back in 2014 when we were both in ES together. I got the opportunity to not only work my way up the ranks with Venum but I also got to work side by side with him as I was his cofo and he was one of my Generals. Venums dedication to the community has always been strong but he really showed it when I went back to LW earlier last year. When I transferred back to LW my boy was just a chillen as a PVT, I hit him up and said bro change your GT back cause were reviving this squad and taking over this division and we did just that. Venum/Hysteria/Sanity Was constantly changing his name .. I mean he was constantly doing what he could to provide a very fun and safe environment for all member of Samurai and was always open for questions, concerns and just being an all around friend and family member. 

When I got promoted to cofo, Venny really stepped up to the plate taking that Gen spot and Working side by side with his squad to prep and succeed DW's first and so far only squad split. Putting all his skills to the test Venny and his officer staff brought Samurai from 60 members to split into Paladin DW. That is when my brother took his spot by my side as DW's 2nd Cofo. After that the story really tells itself. Venum has been one of the more active, hard working, and respectable 7's in this community. Homie is on and available for everyone  at all times of the day and even tho DW might not be at the top of the totem pole right now Venum is always in high spirits and trying to keep his members in the right state of mind and well as keeping them motivated and determined to do better.

I said in this beginning of this statement that venum was a PVT and i said to change your GT back cause were gonna run this place, here we are 2019 KSI VENUM 7 RUNNING DW. If anyone deserves this award its Venny for everything he's done for KSI during his time in 2014 in ES as well as his time in DW from 2018 to now.

So I have known VENUM a little over a year now. In that year I have seen VENUM  learn as a leader about how to improve himself as a leader. I have watched him grow as a leader, becoming more and more involved in things such Forums Mod and Performance Operations. I have watched and learned how to be a better leader myself from him. VENUM is all about the continuing improvement and growth of his Division and KSI as a whole. So if anyone is deserving of this award it’s KSI VENUM 7 

[Bane 7 370]

I knew of Venum when I first joined DW in the beginning of 2018. At that point he was Kings right hand man in Samurai. We barely talked, but when I actually met Venum I knew what was up. He’s all about the members. Putting them before himself in many situations. We actually began talking in the later months of 2018 when I was becoming Gen of Samurai, I knew he has done so much for the squad at that point I had big shoes to fill, and with a lot of his assistance I was able to. He has been what DW has needed in a leader. I know he won’t stop till he gets to the top, and can help all members of the community. 

Besides my personal experiences with Venum, I can tell you what the facts are. DW has seen different members of the 7s staff in the last 2 years, the longest running is Venum. He is currently the Head of PO and has also found time to help other department like AAP and as well being a join mod and now a forums mod. He deserves this award like he deserves all of his current accolades and achievements.

Reasoning: well i dont have much to say other then the fact that venom has always been there when ever i have questions or needed some help.. from help with the forums page to helping with squad duties, venom is there putting the community before him self. with out venom i wouldnt have been able to make it as far as i have in this community. i may not know venom on a personal level i can be sure of one thing his roll here in dw has not only paved the way but set the bar for what is means to be a true leader.

[December 601]

KSI VENUM 7 - "Honest, diligent, a dedicated leader and a man of his word." I've had the opportunity to watch VENUM grow and succeed in this community on three fronts.

Rising up through the ranks in DW during 2018, he became a Division Leader this year. It was a well-deserved culmination, even though I'm sure not the end of his journey in Clan Ops. Whether it's mentoring, training, recruiting or simply leading by example, VENUM has given more time and energy to his division than most people can fathom. He has emerged as one of the most steadfast and dependable leaders in KSI.

"He takes great pride in representing the Division the best he can. He is a hard worker when it comes to the Division, he's always up for teaching the people of DW and making them a better leaders as well as a better people!" (OS2 Nomination, August 2018) This is still true in every way. VENUM is always watching over the members of his division. To him, being a part of a division is just as much about having fun and hanging out as it is about training those around him to be the leaders of tomorrow. "He is extremely dedicated to his members and to DW, doing all that he can to be supportive of them. He's knowledgeable, loyal, and focused on one goal - which is to improve DW." (OS2 Nomination, August 2018) 

VENUM has been involved in Departments and Web Ops for a long time as well. I've observed him for many months now as he's worked hard to rebuild the Performance Ops branch of the community. It hasn't been an easy road but VENUM has proven himself equal to the task. PO has never had such a passionate and reliable leader as it has in VENUM. He's mentored many PO's, overseen the beginning of a new era of integration of the Department into Clan Ops and has succeeded in establishing a much more positive reputation for PO in KSI. His success as a Department Head is barely outweighed by his commitment to seeing his fellow members prosper and grow. VENUM has been a part of Web Ops too - a former Join Moderator, recently promoted to a Forums Moderator. It's very apparent that this man will stop at nothing to educate himself and get involved in KSI in every way he can.

I believe that VENUM has absolutely earned OS3. His contributions to the community are as numerous as they are varied. Whether it's his rock-solid legacy in Clan Ops, his hard work and ingenuity in Departments or his diligence and knowledge in Web Ops, VENUM is an outstanding example of what a leader in KSI SHOULD be. 

VENUM doesn't change. And neither does his loyalty to his friends and his fellow members. This guy is gonna do great things. (Do MORE great things, I should say.) I'm stoked to see it.

[xKami 805]

Well I know this might be last minute but I need to drop in my thoughts about KSI Venum 7. This is one of the greatest leaders in the community that I know to date. He is the kind of leader that always makes you feel like you are apart of something greater then KSI. The love that he spreads throughout the community can be felt not only in his division, but throughout KSI because of the hard work and dedication he puts forward in Performance Ops. He makes you feel like family and has a open mind to your all ideas. His ear is always open and not just listening but reacting to the changes that need to be met. New accomplishments this member has made since his last OS level two that stand out are Divisional Hall Of Fame and Founder of the Month. His hard work and dedication just recently got him a spot as a Forums Moderator spot on the web ops side of things and we all know that only the most trusted and hard working members get this spots. I still have the pleasure of working with him in the join area where he still picks up applications and keeps everything on track. My hats off to you for all that you do for the community. Thank You.

Award: Gold Outstanding (OS Lvl 3 )

reasoning: I have meet Venum earlier this year when I joined the PO staff. He was a senior PO staff member then within two weeks we lost the head of the  department  and had no coHead, but that didn’t discourage him as a senior he stepped up and ran the department. He has done a lot of changes in the department to make it better. He has taken a failed program and redone it to make it better and doing everything in his power to make it run successfully.  Not only does he run a department he is also a Divisional leader and giving all his member the time they need and always there to help with questions or take care of a issue that may come up. He had also got inducted into the hall of fame and got CoFo if the month  He definitely has earned this award
