This document is out of date, and the site it documents is out of service.

This manual is intended to teach new recruiters how to properly recruit for Taijitu using Toaster2. All the necessary steps are listed in order below. Not following these instructions while recruiting may result in us running afoul of NationStates rules, so please pay attention to them.

NOTE: Before you can recruit, you'll have to register on Toaster2 (unless you want to use some other OpenID provider and know what you're doing).

1. Log into your nation. If you haven't already set up OpenID, go to settings. Scroll down to where it says "OpenID..." and click. It will open two new fields, OpenID Delegate and OpenID Server. In OpenID Delegate put "http://toaster.taijitu.org/openid_user/[your user name]" and in OpenID Server put "http://toaster.taijitu.org/openid". You will not need to set up OpenID again unless you change these settings later.

   

2. Go to http://toaster.taijitu.org/ and click on "log in" at the top of the page.

   

3. Enter your user name and password and click "login".

   

4. You will be taken to nation login. Enter the name of your nation and click "login".

   

5. You will be asked if you trust the site. Click "Yes".

   

6. Click "Queues" on the sidebar to the right.

   

7. Click "Taijitu Recruitment" in the list of queues.

   

8. If the queue is not empty, a nation and telegram will be loaded. Check that the nation has not left its original feeder.

   

9. If the nation has not left, check that its name, flag and motto are not offensive.

   

10. If the nation checks out, click "Send".

    

11. Check if the telegram was sent. If it is blocked, wait and try again.

    

12. If the telegram is sent, click "Get Next" and wait for the next nation in the queue to load.

    

Repeat these steps until the queue is empty (or you need to stop). The queue will refresh every two minutes but it is okay to check only ever five minutes. It is recommended that you use some timer to keep track of when you should check the queue for you. Keeping track yourself will make it hard to work on something else while you recruit. You may sometimes get an error message if the queue is empty and you try to get the next nation. The queue will still work despite this. If at any time you get another error message or have reason to believe that Toaster2 is not functioning properly, contact Eluvatar.
