Commander Rikkus made me aware of a registration issue that needed to be fixed so peoples emails could be verified automaticaly.  IT now appears to have been fixed. 

Please check it out with our new members and get back to me if further issues with registration occurs. 

NOTE:  new members will STILL have to be MANUALLY activated however by an admin of the command staff

I just watched a TV show on the Military channel called Special Ops.  It can be seen on Sundays at 6pm (1800) Pacific time.  (It shows at other times during the week though)

It is a reality show where real  SF operators run a live scenario mission using paintball ammo to simulate kills.  Typically haveing a single operator ("Whiskey Wiskey") against a group of at least 5 OPFOR who are also trained SF operators.  The situations can be intense drama and clearly difficult.  Missions can vary greatly and have at least three objectives in each one.  It can be blowing up an ammo dump in one,  saving a downed pilot in another, or even then sniping a drug lord the next.

I think its a good show and worth time seening.

Any MACO personnel that was caught up in this cadet's illegal action may have their record cleared by proving loyalty to MACO. Please send the conditions and exact story of what  happened to me for review and recommendations to High Council.



Cadet Feralin's Teamspeak and website access are revoked pending decision of criminal charges.

The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 (PDF) gives the president the ability to 'declare a cybersecurity emergency' and shut down or limit Internet traffic in any 'critical' information network 'in the interest of national security.' The bill does not define a critical information network or a cybersecurity emergency. That definition would be left to the president. The bill ... also grants the Secretary of Commerce 'access to all relevant data concerning [critical] networks without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule, or policy restricting such access.' This means he or she can monitor or access any data on private or public networks without regard to privacy laws.

Over the last month we have been exploring the possibility of expanding to the game currently in alpha known as global agenda. Agenst my better judgement i allowed atreties to oversee this operation. Several complaints came from his command and his orginization he also refused to keep up with the MACO standerds. More experanced officers were attepted to be put in the place as GA Commander but the games system requirements and bugs stoped them from playing the game. For the last 2 weeks CENTCOM has been dealing with soving simple problems with global agenda and ultimately have determined we will no longer be supporting this game. Mostly this comes from Atreties poor management and orginization along with his immaturity. I am sorry for this inconvience and wish you good luck.

All GA accounts on the site will be removed within the next 72 hours. If you wish to transfer to another game we support feel free to send me a PM. If you have any comments or questions feel free to send me an e-mail at scott.daedaelus@maco-online.com. As for atreties he has been dishonorbally discharged from MACO service and perminantly banned from all networks.

The new Charter has been written this applies to all members and for officers that are confused on their rank and status please send me a PM. The new charter can be located here:
