♔READ -- TO MOVE UP IN RANK♔
Any junior member wishing to attain the rank of senior member must attain a certain level of Dufferism and the criteria are very simple! A senior member, or Senex♔Stultus♔Magnus, is awarded with a custom banner with his very own avatar flanked by the Order of the Garter, and gains the right to participate in the more important decisions of S♔O♔D!
1.junior members must submit a certain amount of dufferesque writings in any forum, viz., 10 long posts (at least 2 paragraphs) or 20 short ones (a few sentences).
Content and dufferisms to be will be awarded based on merit, jocular, postings, are strongly encouraged as is sarcasm,pathos and wit, however one must remain, calm& polite to a fault.at all times even when assailed by members of a 'non duffer persuasion."
Dufferesque content is not required in every posting you make,although it is advised that you use the general guidelines from this Membership society to attain maximum Dufferesque habits, for the use in any situation one may find ones self in!
The use of "You Have Been Weighed, Measured,and found thoroughly wanting"
Should only be used by Junior member if they think that they have garnered enough experience in matters arising or pertaining to the basic and ancient tenets of S♔O♔D.
1,junior members must submit a certain amount of dufferesque writings in any forum, viz., 10 long posts (at least 2 paragraphs) or 20 short ones (a few sentences).
2, Jr members who wish to advance more rapidly to the Senior level rank may wish to do so, by the ability of recruiting five new members to S♔O♔D.

b, A member of the Arch Duffers leaves or retires his post, in which case any aspirant who wishes to attain the hallowed status of Arch duffer, will be will be subject to a vote, in which Dufferesque posts and amount of new members they have recruited to S♔O♔D. will be given fair consideration!

SOWING DISCORD BETWEEN MEMBERS
Sowing discord between members is STRICTLY PROHIBITED as conducive to the worst disorders of the civil body, which is the club. Members should always settle matters in a civil fashion; furthermore, let it be reminded that
Members of different rank may not call each other out.
If it should happen that a member of lower rank is offended by one of higher rank, an Arch♔duffer or Magnus should step in for him and defend him.
Furthermore, whereas a member may leave the club at his own discretion, it is not for him to decide if he is readmitted.
