Civilian Council Information


What is the Civilian Council?

The Civilian Council is a group of prominent members of the community who represent the civilian faction and focus on the five main areas of civilian life: Cartels, Runs, Scats, Vigis, and Feds. Each council member forms ideas for the addition, optimization, or removal of features for each of these areas, which are discussed at monthly meetings to determine if they will be of benefit to the civilian population. Once a council member's idea has been approved, the idea will be presented during a staff roundtable meeting for further discussion and approval for implementation.


Applying to the Civilian Council

Want to see some change on the island of Altis? Here below you can find the requirements for joining the civilian council:

  • Requirements:
  1. You must be active on the civilian faction (civ must be your primary faction).
  2. You must be able to attend monthly meetings on Sunday at 5pm EST.
  3. You must be experienced with the area of civilian life that you are applying for.
  4. You must not have been permanently banned in the past two months.
  5. Your application must be properly formatted and well thought out. Low effort apps will not be accepted (we’re not the APD, you can’t just write “I want to be civ council”).
  • How to apply:
  1. Click "Support" in the bar at the top of the website.
  2. Next, click "New Request".
  3. Make sure the department is set to "Civilian Council Application".
  4. Fill out and complete the rest of the application and submit.
  • Application format

Your application must have a properly formatted title or it will be denied. Please use the following: “<Name> - Civ Council <department>”, for example “DeadPooL - Civ Council Feds"

In your application, include what would make you a good fit for the council in general and specifically for the council section you are applying for. This should be a well thought out and detailed response. You must include a few detailed ideas or changes that you would propose should you be accepted. Most of these ideas should be specific to the area of your application, but a couple of general ideas are also acceptable.

  • Note:
  1. If you have previously submitted an application and had it denied, you are welcome to reapply after two weeks.
  2. If you have been removed from civ council in the past and would like to rejoin, you can apply two months after your removal.
