762s Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 hello, im kinda confused as to what is going on or what i need to do with the forum(s) in 501st sorry, im think i may be overlooking something or maybe im just be getting overwhelmed with all the kit researching(bs overload) or im just not really understanding the proper order of the 501st membership i was able to register here but, i cant register with legion forum i am wanting to join 501st(or am i already joined?) and working/researching the details to become a biker scout but, i read here an there about legion forum and 501st tags and other things. whats all that? is there another forum or something im missing to get "officially" tagged or whatever you call it before i have my gear .. or do i need gear then become official and then somehow sign in somewhere else to get a 501st designation? what about a local garrison .. where, how to get in touch with some locals? could someone help clear this up for me .. if what i said has made any sense ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Hello as well as signing up to Pathfinders you will also need to sign up on your local garrison forum, there you will submit your costume for approval to the GML (garrison membership liaison) once you have approval you can then sign up on the 501st forums, it is for approved members. I believe Garrison Tyranus looks after those in Virginia http://www.garrisontyranus.com/ 501st Garrison listings can be found here: https://www.501st.com/members/displayUnits.php Once 501st approved when ever you sign up on a new forum you can request 501st access, which allows you to see areas other non members can't see, all you do is post a link to your 501st profile, which is issued once you are approved. Also each costume has a basic level for approval, called the CRL's (costume reference library) which for biker scouts can be found here: https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TB_Scout_trooper More info on 501st membership can be found here: https://databank.501st.com/databank/Membership:JoinUs and here: http://www.501st.com/members/join_form.php Hope that helps 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmrhodes13 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 My pleasure, no problems with being on both forums and posting build threads and asking questions, that's what the detachments are for, just your local garrison would be more hands on and of course does your approval. Good luck with the research and look forward to seeing a build thread soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosejonas Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 You should definitely get in touch with your local garrison. Remember, the members there have already been through the same journey that you are about to take. So they have all the information you need to join up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubonos Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 It seems all was perfectly explained. It can be confusing and a bit overwhelming. I was lucky enough to meet Bast Alpha Garrison, make friends and learn from them. I encourage all potential members to go out on troops as a wrangler/handler and help out while you're waiting on your parts to come in and while you build. Great way to meet your local group, learn what trooping is all about and make friends. Your locals will be happy to help with your build and you may even be reason enough for an armor party. We love armor parties. Sent from my LG-M150 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my LG-M150 using Tapatalk heya, thanks troops! i was already planning/thinking if i could get with them without the costume ready .. i would like to get out and see how it all works so, im not a complete noob on my first troop and i have tried to register with the local forums but, theres a busted link or something on the "how to" info page with the registration part.. i sent the CO an email but, im not sure if they understood what the issue is. so, i am waiting on another reply from them atm so, i cant join the local forums as of yet either hope, it all gets sorted though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopper Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 You should be able to register for the GT forums. Does this link work? http://www.garrisontyranus.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=register&sid=b4592028bd17d99cfb028a61527d7803 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BACK TO OUR HOME so, im not sure whats the deal with this version of the forums .. is it a self made forum? or is it part of the 501st forums and something has change along the lines and noone has caught the error with this registration link? and no reply back from the co today about it .. still waiting on that. .. no biggie ..all good .. real life and such and facebook hates my name so, im trying to figure that out ... yup, not the social media type .. so, creating a facebook name thats fits 762s, 762mm, anything sevensixtwo .. facebook dont like ... lol .. ill figure that out sometime soon though.

Chopper Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 If you're able to sign up for the GT forums with the link I provided, then you should be all set for your local garrison. Between the GT forums and here, you should be good until your build is complete and you're ready to submit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
