Yes it is, when you're promoted in the military, your CO. Does not state. "Hey, good job out there, go up one buddy- pat on the back" - Unless you're a lowly private in which some cases, they still get some small talking to. A CO will perform an actual ceremony or "mini ceremony" with family around to see their family member progress in life. Usually in the military based off numerous videos you can use as sources. Enlisted - Usually takes 20 seconds - 1 minute to promote. SGT+ - Usually has a celebration in regards to this. About 2-5 minutes. Cpt+ Usually takes about.. Roughly 10-20 minutes of discussion and a major celebration after. Your actions as an officer not only gain you respect showing your soldiers this type of appreciation but it also reflects on your character. In my private debrief's I'd make sure to tell them why they got promoted and would reflect on their hard-work to make them feel valued. Saying "Go up 1" is probably one of the most disrespectful and lazy traits of being an officer. It shows you have no care to tell your soldier that you give a single ounce of a fuck of them and demoralizes the rank. Obviously i'm not saying to take 3-20000000 minutes to promote someone. Just put some effort in lad. Lmfao. Rather than being cognitivley sarcastic as well, just make your statement clear. No need to be an asshole by stating "Apparently". Just say it how it is. You don't believe officers are lazy based off their promotions and how they do it. I whole heartily disagree. I've been in the SWRP Community Since the first month of its creation in Garry's Mod and can tell you it's easy to spot the difference between an officer that his troopers or her troopers will follow because of their respect and commitment. Paperwork / doing docs does not make you a good officer. At the end of the day, the people you lead look to you, and if you can shine a good battalion and create good relationships and everyone is able to smile and be immersed in a role play server that Officer is top tier. Not just "doing duties because I have to". That's a parent to child mentality. Good luck out their officers. Make a difference in someone's life. Be a leader, not a "I have to" guy.

^ however I will -1 as she’s a senator it takes away from other rp, she would grab a gun and defend base, it’s gonna turn into the whole base ops situation with how they run out onto the front lines constantly.

+1 as long as it's only used for self defense and not running around in courtyard shooting droids.

100% would love to see this if they are decent quality!

If they're not shit. I'm actually down.

Better not be ugly +1

Honestly it should be required to give atleast a mini-Technodad related speech when someone is being promoted to any NCO+ rank. I wouldn't put too much effort into ranks under NCOs but if you're promoting someone to LT. and you can barely comprehend the ability to say a sentence or two as their CO just shows your lack of motivation and resonates throughout your officer branch. Keep promotion speeches under 3-5 minutes, but if you can't formulate atleast a sentence I don't think you should even be promoting people 🦞
