This group is a parody of the DEM, which it is not affiliated with.


Welcome to the New Malton Department of Emergency Management. The DEM oversees and coordinates the operations of the Malton Sanitation Department and Axes Low. The New DEM is not a group itself, but rather an organizational construct, made up from the leadership of the member groups. Please see the groups above for details such as recruitment information.

Together the groups working as part of the DEM number over 15 active members, and we gain new members every day. Our core mission since the outbreak is protecting survivors. We aren't interested in politics, remaining neutral in such conflicts, and will work with any pro-survivor groups that are willing to cooperate together for the benefit of all survivors. We have a job to do, and we're going to get it done!

Contacting the New DEM

Concerned survivors who want to report an emergency, provide information or looking to contact their local NDEM representative may write their suggestion, in Sanskrit, onto the hood of a 1961 Ford Galaxie and shove it up their ass.

Continuing to strive to meet the needs of the citizens of Malton, the DEM provides an interactive Revivification Request tool. We do not use this tool. We are too cool for that.


NDEM Policies

All personnel in groups within the NDEM are held to the following core policies.

Player Conduct

We seek to hold members of all the NDEM groups to a high standard of conduct. Members should always be civil during any discourse or disagreement, regardless of the behavior of anyone else involved. They are expected to play hard, but play fair, and to encourage others to do so.

PKing

The Department takes an extremely dim view of PKing! If you are killed by another survivor without provocation, or witness such activity, please take a screenshot, record their profile ID and contact us in the same manner listed above, using the rear bumber of a 1956 Buick Roadmaster.

Spying

Under no circumstances is any member of any NDEM group to participate in overt spying. Disallowed spying includes: joining a forum and posing as something you aren't in order to gain information that isn't publicly available, joining a group under false pretenses in-game to gather information on new and ongoing operations, or joining any other channel of communication (IRC, IM, Email) to obtain information that wouldn't be available through normal channels. 'Spying' on the enemy by looking at their wiki page or information posted publicly on their forums is acceptable as the enemy is fully aware that this information can reach any and all people. In short, the DEM will not participate in misrepresentation and subterfuge.

History proves many pro-survivor groups are not only willing to work with us, but in many cases are eager as well. Our reputation precedes us and we have shown that we are a group to look up to. We are neither shunned nor maligned by most survivors and that is because we do not participate in under-handed activities. Anyone caught participating in the aforementioned disallowed spying will be stripped of any rank they may hold within the NDEM and dismissed from duty.

Zerging

Members of NDEM groups are not to participate in zerging at all. In addition to that prohibition the following rules apply:

  1. Each player can have at most one character in any NDEM group, and at most one alt under the NDEM in total.

Anyone caught participating in the aforementioned disallowed zerging and meta-zerging activities will be given a single warning. This will involve the removal of said offenders reproductive organs through an orifice of Sonny's choosing. Repeated offenses will cause all the players characters to be stripped of any rank they may hold within the NDEM and most definately dismissed from duty.

Supported Policies

The DEM groups also support a number of policies, which they encourage for general adoption.

Uniform Barricading Policy

The Uniform Barricade Policy (UBP) is designed to provide as secure a barricade plan as possible that still leaves resource buildings and sufficient safe shelters accessible for less experienced survivors. It is also designed to provide a wide range of entryways for those with Free Running, so the population can spread throughout the suburb, reducing tempting targets crowded with survivors if located by zombie spies. The Free Running skill is strongly recommended as a very early skill choice for survivors.

Get a revive, give a revive.

RESCUE

Where possible, churches should be considered as indoor RPs, removing the need to step outside and back inside to perform revives.
