I'm going to unlock this for further feedback from the community if it's not something that's wanted it should go out the door. No reason to push it if everyone dislikes it. I'll keep this thread open for now just for further review and other perspectives. -Thanks -Founders

OKAY SO, everyone is just saying to remove ARQ training. Which, ya I agree with. But no one is giving an alternative. AT-RT/BARC training is pretty cool and stuff. So like, Why not just update the already existent ARC training? Add a stage for whatever ARQ training teaches and boom, ez. From what I understand, ARQ is like a gateway for people to UNLOCK the ability to attend ARC selections. So that kinda like, takes away what ARC selections are lol. It's just kinda redundant and doesn't make much sense to me. So ya. I think ARQ should be removed and added to the initial ARC training. Maybe make a Recon training too for people who aren't ARC, but don't make a 91st training thingy essential for ARC troopers, like that is just kinda stupid.

Name: Spooky Suggestion: Remove ARQ Implementation: Just get rid of it, it's not needed after Dragon made ARC harder. 41st did NOT have a say in the AT-RT part of ARQ, and most people don't even want it. Lore: No lore. Wasn't a thing. Workshop content if applicable: none (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development") ALSO, 91st CONTROLS AT-RTs NOW WITH ARQ. YOU NEED ARQ FOR AT-RTs Only remove ARQ from the ARC training process. Make it a thing only for ARF.

Here, I got some for you. Chambers as a Director alone scared me, this is why. I was having a discussion with him about why he would immediately deny a suggestion based on his own views instead of the community's, and this is what he says. This is NOT okay, I even immediately reported this to Square. I am not fine with this, I've been here for a very long time, and when our views are being trashed on by someone who just wants to see his way is not okay. And when I say "Okay Billiam" at this point Carter is one document deletion away from being worst. Please, I beg atleast speak to this fucking guy. +1

Name: Logic Suggestion: Remove ARQ from existence Implementation: Simply get rid of it Lore: No lore doesnt exist Reason: This was FORCED upon us. 41st had no say. Chambers just said lets add this to make ARC even more annoying for everyone. Reason for repost: Chambers shouldnt deny his own implementations removal.

To put this into perspective for everyone, chambers is not a bad guy, he has done many great things and many of you have had good interactions with him before. We have figured out that chambers has been under a LOT of stress recently with both Finals for his university and running this server. Because of all of this (And running the community for as long as he has) Chambers has been lashing out at people for small things. Its not that he hates the community but more that everything is starting to get to him. So instead of removing him like some of you think we should do, we will be giving chambers a second chance like we gave to many other community members, like the community member who made this post. So in short, Chambers is human like the rest of us, once Chambers has destressed from everything, is finished with his finals and is ready to come back he will work as Director once again.

Okay, Jackson and I have come to a decision. We will speak to Chambers directly and put him on a break for now, Until his break ends, Square will take over CW-Director until his return. This post is accepted and locked

RP Name: 41st GC SUP CPT Spooky Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:98585052 Staff member you are reporting: Chambers. Staff Members Steam ID (If applicable): STEAM_0:0:24466670 Staff Members Wrong-Doing: Abuse of power (denying suggestions based off PERSONAL feedback). Excessive and harsh punishment. Tyranny. Violation of TS rules (lewd TS avatar). Explain the situation: Evidence (If applicable): These are some quotes made by anonymous/brave people. "Chambers has taken this way too far. This community was made to go away from the BS executive decisions fucking over the community, and Chambers just steps in and denies a suggestion that has full support from the community. Like C'mon, this is bullshit and it's silencing the community and stepping on everything we hold dear. I'm sorry, but this was the last straw." - ANONYMOUS "Who is Chambers?" - Woody Chambers has continually shown blatant disrespect and carelessness for the community of it goes against his own personal views. He has his interests in mind, not the communities, which has already gathered much anger from the community onto himself, continually being compared to a dictator. This disrespectful nature finally reached its peak when chambers denied a post with 100% community support, completely throwing away the idea of “Synergy, where your voice can be heard”. If chambers is a face of this community then I want nothing to do with it, which truly hurts me considering all the friends and memories I’ve made here. - Doc "Kerry - The moment Chambers took our freedom of speech he realized he done fucked up" "Chambers is honestly one of the most biased Directors I've ever seen. Only the shit that he likes gets his approval as is seen with the ARQ posts on the forums. He has no right to shut anything down without massive community feedback as the feedback is the voice of the community. I don't get why he doesn't understand that and agree that he needs to step away from his Director Position." -Panda Now for my own opinion. This server, Synergy, originally split of Icefuse. We left because of the abuse of power of the high staff, and the censorship of the community. Now, the whole reason we left is being put in front of us again. Chambers has shown that he can NOT handle the power of Director, and that he will only abuse it and use it for personal gain. Chambers is also very happy with his banning. He has made permabans for invalid reasons. The "helping out the door" ideology will not and DIDN'T WORK with legacy members. For the people who have no interest in the server but still have friends in the server, will want to see their friends have fun. On their posts, if they bite back at the choices of Director "Big Kid" Chambers, and want to reverse them, will probably end up with a temporary or permanent ban. By the people, for the people? ALSO NOTE THAT OTHER PEOPLE MIGHT BRING IN MORE EVIDENCE Please read through and consider this report.

Well, it is a video game, and I spoke about this in the past. I really think all this shit shouldn't be added, it's legit a video game, but it's gonna be a bit realistic for training. I do think they're taking this a bit too far. It was fine how it was back then. This shit happened when I was in Null. They forced that ARC shit down on top of us without even hearing our opinion or a vote.

Here is a list of who it directly effects. ARCs ARFs ARCTs 41st Green Company. Alpha ARC Rancor GM Now lets add on more. We have lore characters that require ARC training such as Fives. We have lore characters that require ARF training such as Mortar from the 104th. It's a large amount of people.

This is a community made for the players, by the players. What right do you have to implement systems that effects EVERYONE on the server with no discussion with those who will be most effected by it? We will not stop complaining because we do not like this system, our voices will be heard and we will not lay down for you to ignore what we want this community to be.

+1 Since this was added only ARC/ARF can use BARCS and ATRT which is pretty dumb and since they are claiming vehicles I claimed LAATS for attack battalions only

Bitch Lasagna ~ SUB TO PEWDIEPIE

Ok big moron, the reason why at rt trainings haven't happened is because I got removed while I was trying to get them set up and running so that's just moronic. You are also one to talk about starting drama and other things. You've disrespected myself and members of my battalion to my face and seemed to get away scott free. Also 41st not doing a training would actually make LESS work for you to do eks dee. Spooky is a hard working member of the server and of the 41st. I know I've been removed and taking a bit of a hiatus but I will defend spooky on this. Also from things that Grum have said something along the lines of how 41st is nothing but degenerates seems to be leaking down to his officers and enlisted. Instead of making a player report that seems to be some sort of an attempt to kick up some drama and force something out, talk it out like you should and actually try and get things solved like mature people. FAT -1 on this thing

Null still have to go to selections just like any other ARC trooper they are still ARC troopers. Only ARC and ARF will be able to use those vehicles as they are RECON vehicles that suit the jobs and allows a unique thing to be added to them. It's the same thing that is happening to Pilots. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 91st Can do whatever the fuck it wants to make it so people can use their BARCS (No one could use them at all before this) (Without Game Master Perms)) 91st Controls ARF training already??? 41st Can do whatever the fuck it wants to make it so people can use their AT-RTs (The inclusion in ARQ was optional Egg was the one that worked with Grum on this and added AT-RT to ARQ) (No one could use them at all before this (Without Game Master Perms)) 104th Can do whatever the fuck it wants to make it so people can use their TX-130s (Without Game Master Perms)) RANCOR can strip ARC and modify selections all they want it's their battalions thing. 91st already controlled ARF training they just made it scheduled to 4 times a week and only takes 30 mins in smaller groups and an hour for large groups then you are done ARQ. (ARC takes 3 hours to get everything and longer if you fail and is once maybe twice a week) What truly pissed me off about this suggestion is the fact that 90% of the people +1 did not attend or give it a chance when there has only been one ARQ and it was an hour and a half ago. 91st poured their heart and soul into making ARF training more fun and incorporate BARC training so everyone could get the training in a quick 30mins a be on their way and be able to begin to use BARCs on the patrol. While I will admit I did act badly the first time I will not make an excuse for it. If people want to try to make a legitimate change to improve the server and the community I will defend them to the death because they are the people that will make a change for the betterment of the community. "those that try do, but those that do not try, do nothing" If you do not like that fact that it is a requirement for ARC then make that suggestion, do not shit on the effort of 91st who actually made something fun for people to do that hardly takes any time.

+1 This is some of the dumbest shit. You're adding another training that people will eventually neglect and not give a shit about just like the Tech Training, the Medical Training, Interrogation Training, etc. No one fucking cares. Fuck a new ARC Requirement, and fuck future training stacks. Stop over complicating things with the reason "better RP" it's fucking stupid and overdone, fuck out of here.

"For the community, By the community"

WE ARE NOT ICEFUSE LET US SPEAK

+1 This something that was shoved into our faces without any community input at all. It's a pre-requisite for a pre-requisite.

+1, that image from Bbstine severely reduces my trust in Chambers, I don't feel like he has our interests in heart and he makes the decisions for us with out us letting us have a proper discussion (This is not about ARQ but another instance involving Ranks to leave base and so on).

I agree with this. I know chambers does a ton for this community and server that you all dont know about, BUT Sometimes we over step. THIS is a huge mistake on both parties. Honestly Without Chambers I dont believe the server could have gotten as far as it has come. TLDR. -1. I think we all need a break.

To be fair everytime I got any argument with Chambers we was really close to any opinion that wasnt his opinion. Might just be me, but I always felt like Chambers is pretty toxic and closed to any idea and also close to the idea that people can change/improve. And proved this to me many times.

Don't you think before putting in 100 hours of work on something you should maybe ask the community how they feel about it then? That's on the people doing the work not the people disagreeing with it.

This is literally a puppet show as 41st has almost no justification on ARQ when we don't have any ARF and we are forced to do ARQ. We have been discriminated enough during events, normal times or even on the forums. Being in the 41st for 3+ months now, we get a lot of hate but this is literally a power play for both 91st and RANCOR. I don't think SO is satisfied with ARQ too from what I heard previously and also how almost all battalions that have ARF or ARC have an increased difficulty which makes them more "elite" which I don't think it really helps and this would further deter the people who want to be ARC 91st doesn't host their BARC Training constantly while we do it on request. Yes there is a calendar but usually, its either cancelled or no one qualifies for ARQ. No hate on the battalions but just my opinion.

-1, the whole purpose behind this is to get everyone trained for ARF Barc and other recon tactics. The decision to make it a prerequisite to ARC was mine. IMO the 91st have a right to make their training how they want it. It would be like telling 41st that they cant make AT-RT a certain way or Rancor how they have to do ARC training a certain way. ARC is made up of three separate training regiments, and yet no one complains, yet a 1-hour training is too much for people to handle. Man up and stop complaining.

ame: Kerry Suggestion: Remove ARQ Implementation: Because this is unacceptable that the Directors/Director are taking our freedom of speech. And instantly denying it without a valid reason. Lore: None Workshop content if applicable: (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development")

Voided as per request of the author By the way this report had nothing to back it up, Spooky hasn't done anything wrong. //Locked //Moved to Player Reports - Completed Reports

ehh fuck it go ahead and void im done trying to be a decent member of the community go ahead and remove my post power to because if i see something that is truely wrong and want it fixed i guess i need to go somewhere else

thanks @Square you know what to do baby

+1 Chambers represents the server and this is not how someone who represents should act even behind closed doors. Telling the community to go fuck itself and acting you know better than the community? Yeah no. That turns people off from a RP server. This is coming from experience from a person who was a co-owner of one of the top 5 servers back when The Specialists RP community was a thing. I don't know exactly what happened to IceFuse and heard bits of pieces, but I love this server and do not want to see the server going into that direction.

https://gyazo.com/2b3b521c737e1c6f4dbf0610632f60e4 +1 shoves his dicks up our asses WE ARE NOT PUPPETS

Actually, I'm kinda a bipolar spastic over here. I change my mind. After taking a moment to look at the extra given evidence, this seems like a repeated issue. Someone like that shouldn't be in a position of power. +1

I personally feel as if Chambers does more work than anyone on this server, if anything. Perhaps a talk? But I don't believe a removal is necessary, and the billiam comments are a bit far-fetched. Remember any flame will be deleted. Again, keep it to serious posts only ~ Thanks in advance.

Please provide any evidence, Without evidence, we will not pursue this.

+1 He abuses His power And acts like ICEFUSE 5 weeks ago, I was banned by Chambers for an issue that was already taken care of by Zim, then all of a sudden I was banned without warning, and apparently, I was not the first, Quote: Chambers hands out Perma-bans like fucking free candy!

Enough is enough brothers! +1

+1 get rid of it if people don't want it i don't want to have an extra ARC stage to be ARC (even though i don't care and never will care about being an ARC or about ARC in general) also 41st aren't oppressed, just 3-5 months again around the times joah was 501st you had the biggest battalion server influence, but anyway +1 this cuz people don't want it and no need for an extra ARC stage also retards stop giving negative forum rep to people with different opinions then yours you look like the antifa

+1 He Is Abusing his power, and Not Letting the Power go to the People

This aint Arma 3 where there is extensive Training where everything is extremely realistic. so you cant just force a whole community to one decision you and the big boys are making without any community input in the first place

Joah coming in with that founder dick beat down boi

+1 ! Just dont go 4Head

+1 all the way

Well this escalated fast.

Alright guys, leave it to +1's and -1's. I know Esitt already said it but it's getting pretty hard to get valid criticism. If you'd like to keep arguing with certain people make a private PM here on the forums, it's there for a reason lads. Please and thank you.

Ill -1 because based on my experience with the actual ARQ was pretty pleasant. Its not long at all and it shows you the basics of what Recon is preparing you for both ARC and ARF. The training itself only takes like 30 min once everything is set up (tad bit longer today because of the amount of ppl attending today) and is rather fun imo but everyone is entitled to their own opinion and if ppl didnt like it, just stating that i liked it when i attended

Training* And come on, state the reason for this? Tell us why a required training for several battalions that suddenly came out of no where with no community input is good.

But we'll review it.

Wow you really put together a great ban appeal here... good job! You should check some of those facts again too buddy it seems like you're a little misinformed in some areas.

Denied For one, this appeal is toxic. Two, we used server donations to purchase these add-ons. The HUD was created by a developer that was hired by the Joah with the money made from the donations the server has received. Did you use server money for the models, huds etc? No ... Keyword PURCHASED, unlike stealing *cough*
