It's time for me to take my leave! I'm busy with so many things in real life, and I don't have the time nor motivation to play GMOD actively right now. This server has been such a huge part of my life for the last year and a half, and I'll genuinely never forget it. I've spent so many late nights just talking to people. I never considered myself to be too much of a "people person", but this server really changed that. I've gained so much confidence on the tiniest fucking things, and this server is the reason why. I've met so many people that have made a permanent impact on my life, and I love every single one of them. I wanted to leave much later than I am now, but too many things have piled up and led this moment to being the best time. I never expected myself to get into a server, or even community, like this, and I definitely didn't expect to get so hooked at 5 AM on a Sunday night, 525 days ago. I've had a lot of really emotional moments on this server. I've had times where I wanted to cry, times where I wanted to break something, and even times where I wanted to just leave it all. At the end of the day, I'm glad I joined this server. The memories and friends I've made outweigh the negatives entirely, and I never would think otherwise. Thank you all, whether you hate me, don't care about me, or even consider me a friend. I might come back if I have more free time in the future, but only time will tell whether I do or not. Some farewells: @Pog Literally my day one. You are the reason me and @Mavelle stayed so long ago, and I'll never forget it. @Mazen You have been such an inspiration for me. You've always wanted the best for me, even before I was a "name". You saw potential in me, and tried your absolute hardest to bring it out of me. You've done so much for me, and it hurts me to know that I can't repay the favor. Thank you so much. @Caidoon You're the most genuine person I've ever met. The amount of kindness you pour out just by existing is amazing. I've always been able to look to you when I needed someone to talk to, and I really appreciate it. @Katy I won't ever forget our time with 2ndAC and 212th. I've learned a lot from you, and had so many great laughs from being around you. Everything about our time in 212th makes me smile. @Lyonaxis !!!!!!! Genuinely the nicest person I've ever met. Ever since my first interaction with you I've admired you and your huge heart. I never thought I'd get so close to you with my time in SOBDE, but I'm so glad I did. @Shockpoint The BEST Gregor. You and Bacta were the first people to make me feel like people truly cared about me on the server. I will genuinely never forget the day I got your tag and how happy it made me. I really do miss our Parjai. @Jovanovic I never expected an ATK REG to matter much to me ever, but that was before I met you. You shattered my expectations and more, and it all started that day I did your 2ndAC tryout. @Mater My Bear!!! Parjai and 2ndAC was so fun with you around. I've made so many fun memories with you, and I'm so proud to have seen you grow into BCMD eventually. Try not to eat too many Kraft dinners while you're gone 😉 @Bitter Late nights with you as SPEC REG was so fun. I'm glad I got to interact with you as Sev, and I'm really glad that you're going places. Good luck with SOBDE!! @Sriracha Playing games with you has always been so fun. Everything you do is so entertaining. I never thought I'd have so much fun with you but ever since you got REG and we separated ourselves from our positions, I've had so much fucking fun with you. @Jayarr You've been awesome to interact with you. I haven't gotten super close with you, but the serious moments I've had with you are all important to me. @Daytona211 Seeing you join SOBDE and BB was so fun. I'm sad that half of our time together was spent disagreeing on changes, but I really enjoyed being around you and learning about you. @Marvel Funny guy!!!! I'm so glad you came back, genuinely. I loved you as Bardan, and I'm so fucking happy that you're back on a clone job. @Whataburger be yourself please (stay away from mazen zwin, he's a bad influence) @Mavelle GET OUT OF MY HEAD SHUT UP GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD SHUT UP GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD SHUT UP GET OUT OF MY HEAD To those of you I didn't mention, please don't take it personally. There are so many people I care about and appreciate, and I'd run out of space if I mentioned you all. Bye!

I think a hostile faction at the current time would be a bad idea due to population. Maybe when the population increases once again it could be talked about but it cannot be something like Sith that ruin the Clone Wars vibe.

why can't you do this with BH, Navy, and Jedi? Why do they need representation directly but senate does not? Surely you can just ask them what they want? What if suggestions come up for senate they can't respond. You just have to assume what they want because you cannot represent all the wishes of Mas and the senate? the reason we have direct representatives in meetings is so they can respond and gain new information to alter or reinforce their opinions.

5/5/5 i dont know what to say but......... Z6 GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

I've planned to ! I do genuinely want to see the map and how people react to it

So, Im obviously against Senate having its representation within High Command being harmed. Ive had chats with multiple people within High Command and a Founder about this. Their reasons can and do hold weight behind it. This is something I got a more insight on from Jad and that I agree with partly. We had 2 Backup plans and 1 is somewhat ready to go and the 2nd plan would give us preferential treatment and that is just not acceptable. Im half and half on this. I think the Bar to Senior Senator should very high and be the position Mas Amedda uses to mentor this person to succeed him, which if he was still RCMD, would then hopefully give them the chance to show this "maturity". Senators dont progress on the ranking structure, that is correct, however they do have committees where they can persure a lead position it, this is effectively a Regiment within a Battalion, I dont think the HVYL of a Battalion shows they can be a RCMD, this is the same. I think what should be done is having a more transparent and clear list of powers they hold, expand on them and give them more oppurtunities within the server, oppurtunities that shouldnt be giving special treatment but just enhancing what they already have. Maybe then you would be able to see the people showing themself. Yes, Absolutely. Activity however is too low, 3 hours is a day, A Couple of Hours for 3-4 Days would be more acceptable. This would mean they have enough time to work on their "main" but also have a second position that holds some value on the server. Senators shouldnt be presented as a throw away position. This is going to be crucial for the Senates Success. Since you were one of the people making this decision, you now have a resposibility to show alot more presense within the senate. I understand that you are the top person in the structure but Senate now relys on you for their voice. So far the Senate as a wholes recives almost no communication from you, while it was passable with Mas as RCMD, Senators now need to know if something is being discussed will effect High Command, The Senate Faction should be able to give their opinion and view through you. If however the Senate is put on a island that certain Senators believe they are now in, then it will only harm senate going further. I believe in representation within High Command and you are now our only way to get that. @Comicsbrings some interesting scenarios to light. What he says would be almost a worst case scenario which isnt well out of the possibility. The next few weeks are really important. I hope you conrad will help us. Cause this below Doesnt help us.

Regimentals are selected, usually from those battalions, to represent the wishes of only those 3 battalions. You are not chosen solely to represent the wishes of the senate, since you are not only not chosen from but also not chosen to represent the senate I think it's strange to assume you will always represent their wishes 100%. You sit almost as an elected dictator to enact your plans upon all groups, the groups then use their representatives to come to compromise over your plans. The senate will no longer have this at all, so when their future is being discussed they would have to trust someone not apart of their group or chosen to represent their interests to do exactly that. This is less like having a reg represent 3 battalions and more like having the marshal represent all battalions. Regimentals very noticeably are forced into more hands off apporaches in which they tend to guide the unity of a regiment and assist in the plans of the regiment. Palpatine and Marshal, since they are such indirect represenatives do not act really to represent interests but to forward an elected agenda of the whole server. Your agendas within the senate would no longer have a senate representative to compromise with in High Command. I would like to add I think the role of regimentals is probably heavily under represented. And I do not support their equal ranking to people like Guild Lead or Yularen as I believe regimentals represent the views are many differing groups. I would support expansion of the insight and ability to interact with HC for BCMDs. You seem confused, Conrad. I can explain anything you didn't understand :)

But palpatine is selected from the senators, he's selected as the leader of all groups. Infact Senate now stands as the only solo group or regiment to not have some sort of directly chosen representative within High Command. BH, Navy, Jedi all have their own REG represenatatives as stand alone groups, each regiment then has their chosen represenatitve. However now no one chosen from the senate stands in HC. You represent all people, and are defintely not chosen to represent the smallest group. So you're saying Senate has no representation, we just have to expect you to understand's it's wishes as much as the people within it?

@Whataburgerthis kinda looks like you do man, and you seem very sus by saying you don't so much.

+1 HOW AM I JUST NOW SEEING THIS WTF Toaster is like the comics of 2022, Absolutely insane

???

Yeah, I'm a sith apologist but it kinda throws off the Clone Wars feel having the SWTOR Sith faction pull up. When the new map drops, If we did want a direct opposition with Jedi again, maybe a reintroduction of CIS with subsects for Dooku and his acolytes/assassins with the freedom that sith was offered?

o7 DO NOT BE A STRANGER. You where a synergy legend in my eyes, Cya around!

Hostile factions have always been a great idea. But the community has proven one of two things Leadership is often times underwhelming and lead the faction into a bad direction The faction is held back by ideals that people often times are not willing to shift and/or change A hostile faction can provide passive events and/or encounters without the game masters being needed to do all the work, and that is 100% something we need as a community. If we wish to maintain players around the clock, there needs to be activities to do. Sure, we can do that now, but no one does. Bounty hunter is a 50/50 gamble on what exactly will happen, if anything, and is very situational on when and how it will even provide the players with something to do with full server involvement. But that same arguement can be said for clones too. It is the responsibility of the community to create activities to do during "downtime", but concepts like this can actively help push for that.

4 / 4 / 5 Another fun shootem up. Starting to get stale maybe if the droids started outside the base and then pushed their way inside it could be more interesting.

To me it feels like Disney is trying to please all audiences since Star Wars is so huge. There's so many different sides, factions, and timeframes, leading to a lot of possibilities. The way they do it right now, they aren't putting too much care into one show, and spreading it out among a lot of different ones. While this isn't the best for some die hard fans, I like that they're making all kinds of Star Wars fans happy (and optimizing profits). I don't see it as "tryharding" at all personally, but I can see where you're coming from.

Spieler!!! I am so glad I got to meet you! Im not typing this out like a goodbye, because its not one! You WILL be in ts and frequently at that! I will say this server was truly lucky to have you and im sure everyone here can agree on that. I love ya man and im happy to see things IRL are getting interesting. Have fun with whatever you do! <3

Disney knows their market and how easily hyped they are for new content at this moment in time, and are trying to capitilize on it. However, its welcome by all means. The new shows have been hit or miss, without going into too much. Some of them try a little too hard, or otherwise have hit/miss characters, but it's 100% improving over time. In terms of future releases, I feel Andor is going to hit that very dark side of star wars that I personally love, and I can't wait to see how it turns out. Otherwise, mando and bad batch will keep up their reliable pattern by the looks of it, and kenboi is very promising just by the first two episodes. All in all, these new shows will always bring new lore, regardless of how shit their story may be, and that's what I'm down for the most

+1 I can’t quote your app for some reason but at least we’re not pretending anymore. I’m not around anymore but I’m glad to see someone mature enough to at least admit when you slipped up. +1 please unblacklist me

big o7 Spieler, stick around in ts

I will miss you so much :(

@SpielerI am so glad I got to know you and became fast friends with you. Hit me up my guy if you want to play something other than GMOD. I wish you luck in your endeavors wherever they take you.

man wtf did i just read

Bro what??????????????????????????????

5/5/5

2/3/5 Performance was dandy. I like the dupe. But it was just a shoot-'em-up at the end of the day. There's also a clear element that involved Fixer which kind of just fell flat. I realize what you were trying to do, but there was a lack of communication that made the situation kind of weird to me. I realize that he had the option to keep his mouth shut and that's what he went with... but it was more awkward than anything considering the other Alphas just got annoyed and splattered his brains for it. Thank you for the deployment.

i also helped but forgot to give id STEAM_0:0:168633446

5/4/3, Great deployment, server did chug a lot though, still had a blast

What might’ve happened a year ago is something to look at but only briefly. People have quite the capacity to grow and undergo change as they make mistakes and learn from them, sometimes harshly. All of what you proposed in your app are things I have found to be disgruntled with my entire time I have been a player on this server and had a Jedi. Consular has been the rp branch of the order for the entire time I have been here. There is no reason the other branches cannot excel in rp other then because of the stigma that if your a Jedi and not a consular, you don’t need / get to rp. +1

This is from what I remember is completely true, however, I had resigned from 501st already during this whole build-a-tryout thing so I cannot back that accusation seeing as though I was not present. However, this was over a year ago, And I have known Snad for a very very long time, he definitely has had some bad ideas like what you mentioned in your post, however the Good definitely outweighs the bad ideas that Snad has had. Now, the application. I for sure have no say when it comes to Jedi seeing as I haven't played on my Jedi properly since I was a Shadow Manager under Skylur, but after reading where you want to see the Jedi at the end of time as Yoda, I certainly enjoy all of the thoughts and ideas and I think that this will better the Jedi Order in the long run. So I will be going to +1 this application. However, do not gloss over what Rizzo has said because he is making some very valid points. Good Luck with the Interview.

-1 So, This is nothing against you in any way. But I genuinely do not think you would be a good fit for rex. Most of the shit you've been saying that will happen has never happened. For example, TC RP. No RP in TC ever happens unless a select few people are on at the same time. With Jedi, You've said multiple times that we we're going to "make subunits more appealing" which never happened. I was the only one who pushed for trials to actually be hosted, and asked if anyone was interested in a subunit. Also the public callout thing is another reason why I'm putting a -1.

+1 I enjoyed you as high command and working with you and I think you'll do great in this position too

You are doing what now? Very nicely summarized and well put together app. As long as you do the Yoda voice its a Huge +1 from me.

+1

Nah bro I’m still so fucking bitter +1

Bitter is incredibly capable. He's shown so much dedication and passion to his battalion since day one of him becoming CMD. Your plans are very strong, and you've got an incredibly good command and officer corps to back these plans up. You've been in the battalion more than long enough to know what works and what won't, and I'm more than confident that you could implement plans well, as well as realize when to back out if needed. Good luck! I hope that you enjoy the position, or at least get SOBDE to the state that you want. Huge +1.

people just like to complain

There really isn't much to add on from what everyone else has said. In my entire time on Synergy, I've always seen you do great with every position you found your way into. Finally working together with you in SOBDE completely confirmed my thoughts, making me very confident in your ability to make your goals and plans a reality. Good luck with the interview. +1

Working with you in 212th back in the day was a pleasure. +1
