It was modified under the requirements in Commander Application, this is to draw the attention to it but not a full perm announcement.

Senate Commandos Captain Taggart Captain Taggart position is applicable to those who are currently the rank of CAPT + for both Clones and Jedi and have a minimum of 1 months experience in that CURRENT position. We have OPENED this to JEDI Knight+ for this role only, as a modified BCMD for the Senate Commandos. (You do not have to be in the battalion you are applying for as long as you still meet the requirements for applying.) Good luck for all those interested

Locked and denied due to the use of ADVERTISING of this application. CBlake, sorry but your application is closed and DENIED due to this! You may apply for another BCMD position after 30days. 3/17/2018

Good luck to you Gene and I hope to see you around in Synergy and ARC.. Enjoyed our time together and look forward to more dupes in the future.

Thank you for your service as BCMD and keeping 212th in a great place for as long as you did. I look forward to fighting along you on the battlefield.

This is now LOCKED and will be Looked at by High Staff

This topic is LOCKED and will be REVIEWED by High STAFF

I want to thank you all for the support but at this point here is where I am at. I have never felt the need to run for any job or felt compelled to demand/want a set job. From Keller to Bacara and from Vet Admin to Director it was only because there was a need for the leadership and mentorship I can provide and attempt to provide. After talking with @Jackson and @Square I feel Square will do the REG job well and therefore I will be dropping my application. Good luck with the interview Square and I hope to see you in game and look forward to see what you do with the battalions below you.

With 60 counted votes and in favor overall! Congratulations! Your application has been accepted for interview. Please contact myself or Jackson to conduct your interview You have until 2/24/18 to contact us.

@Pyle I am not sure where you are getting that last statement, but when I am inthe game and in TS I am not AFK, I do not farm money or AFK time. I have not and will not start. If I am in game, I am in TS and at times I am only in TS not in game doing duties required of the Director position. What I was saying was as a Regimental Commander, my focus would not be on the ENTIRE BATTALION and the inner workings of it, but on just the BCMDs of each of those Specialized Battalions, freeing up more time to do what is needed in my other duties. I challenge you to find someone with clout saying I am afk like others. My name is not OXEN until I am in the my official duties as Director or in TS where my name is literally GM BCMD Bacara / Oxen.

Personal Opinion: {Not the view of Synergy or Director}: -1 this for the following reasons. Medical troops in any sense of real world or most games are easily identifiable and have a specific role of staying safe until needed to get to a trooper to heal up in which they would be put into a hostile environment. They were not meant to be running in the front with the assault teams. If troopers are not slowing down and falling back to get healed when injured, that is on them, I know some do not have the option because they have not invested in stats yet, but they will. Like already stated: Medics will get the defib to bring back dead troopers right there on the battlefield. It would only make more RP sense that they are in the back of the group and as they push up. they assist those that died before pulling back to heal due to whatever reason. I see this being more of a role-play aspect as the medics constitute the support role and not assaulting unless absolutely required.

@Drayyen Understood and I hear your concern. However, I believe with the position of Director, the requirements demands more of my time and it will in the future hurt Galactic Marines as I lean more and more on my Commanders to run the battalion. As Regimental, I can focus my available playtime with the BCMDs of Specialized and help them focus on the leadership, mentorship and management of their battalions as needed and REQUESTED.

I only play Synergy on GMOD and currently I am at 1851 hours, for 282 days is about 6 hours an hour every day. Not sure how much more active I can be with a full time job, getting another degree and Director for Admin and Director of the TR program, and still trying to keep my activity high enough for my Marines. Sorry if you do not see me enough, but I assure you, I am on very often.

@woeny23 I am unsure what you are referring to here with the TR program, I believe I have asked from day one for input and suggestions from all of my TRMs and TROs. I have kept my hands off as much as possible to allow the players/troopers to succeed. If I did something that seems GM way when it comes to something outside of GM, it was not my intent and I hope people will bring it to my attention for a discussion and an understanding.

Steam Name: [SR] Oxen [D] RP Name: GM BCMD Bacara Steam ID (SteamID Finder): STEAM_0:1:18216564 Regiment you are applying for: Specialized Regimental Commander Experience: I would say a true leaders, manager and mentor is my strongest quality. Patience and understanding is very good and my temper is almost always in check. That being said: 100% of my time in GMOD from Icefuse to Synergy from April 2017 to today has been with the Galactic Marines. I have worked my way up from PVT to XO very quickly under Number as Bacara and shortly before the switch with Gene as Bacara. I have been Bacara for 97 days as of today. I have completed every training I could get my hands on through the game except Naval and Jedi. While I do have a Padawan (since week one of synergy), my sole focus has been on Troopers and the success of GM. I am looking to assist the specialized battalions with any and all skill sets I bring to the table to help further their own battalion. Why should you become a Regimental Commander?: Honestly, I think it is time for me to move up and out of the Galactic Marines and to allow my Commanders in GM the chance to become Bacara and start their journey on their own. Additionally, offering my leadership, mentorship and management skills if any battalion is looking for some wisdom. Do you understand the lore of your regiment?: Yes, while I have not played in those battalions, I am versed in their lore and named characters. Availability: Sunday through Thursday 6pm to 1am (sometimes more or less as Director requirements dictate) Friday-Saturday 10am to about 2am (again depending on Director requirements) Give a brief overview of your achievements on the server: -Completed Experiences/Trainings/Skills: [ENG MED EOD TECH ATC GMACT ARC QM HVY WPNS] ENG - Engineering training on both ships MED – Medical all old and current systems EOD – both old and new TECH – both old and new ATC – Air Traffic Control -should be updated, I never fly- GMACT - Galactic Marines Advanced Combat Training I, II, III ARC - 2 times at this point Quarter Master Trained Heavy Weapons and Tactics Every class GM used to have - Sharpshooter - Heavy - JetTrooper - ARC - Support - Combat - Medic - Officer Commander Keller until Gene moved to REG CMD so about 45 – 60 days Training program from TR up to current TRD (director) Admin program from New Admin to current Director Do you have a microphone?: Yep, use it all the time! Where do you want your regiment to be at the end of your term?: Stronger and with more ties to each other in a way of brotherhood and teamwork. To help each battalion understand what the others bring to the fight and use those strengths to enhance roleplay and battle situations. To assist with leadership or mentorship that is requested of me. How do you plan to improve relations within your regiment?: This is a very tough question, because as a BCMD, I do not take lightly someone trying to impose of enforce actions with other battalions at any time. It is my duty to work on relations between other battalions if we feel the need. As REG commander however, I would be talking to the BCMDs and give them options in which they can exploit relations with other battalions to gain that brotherhood feeling. Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: I would have it no other way. So yes, I understand! Do you understand that your position has a two month term limit and you must reapply after two months to maintain your regimental commander rank?: Yep, again I am not looking at keeping a position, only to move up as needed to allow players below me the opportunity to move up as well and learn/achieve more on this server. It is time for GM to go on without me as Bacara as we have many strong Officers ready to take the mantle of leadership and GM into a new era.

@JBFox I enjoyed our limited contact and I hope you enjoy whatever it is you move on to. Eventually, you will find your way back here and we all look forward to that return. Good luck to you.

Understood.

@Dragon As a player and NOT AN INACTIVE ONE, I have my opinions and can comment on them as I see fit. I did not add as a DIRECTOR I am going to do this or that. Again I stated my opinion as a Battalion commander and I noticed you did not refute what I said. That being said, it is up to Freck as he already stated to make changes. Good luck to you all in getting into Naval for those interested.

Ok going to put my two cents in: As I see it, tryouts/trials for any battalion, jedi order, naval, and senators is on the person running that program to decide the ease or difficulty of it. If the person, in this case Freck, decides that he needs more numbers, he can make the standard easier. I do not understand why some of you guys think requiring someone to make their tryouts EASIER has any real sway. It would be like anyone else saying, oh becoming a knight is too hard.. booo hoooo, I want to be a knight, I paid to be a jedi; I have tried to make it for like 3 months, make it easier, or give me the rank and let me grow into it. If we were talking about another battalion being forced to change their tryouts because the rest of the server thought it was TOO HARD, well frankly FUCK OFF, it is the BCMD to decide how easy or hard it is. Same as Yoda for Jedi, Palp for Senators etc.

Good to have you while we did, I hope you find what it is you are looking for. Cya around I am sure.

The issue with that Fours is that at some point in time, if the EOD/TECH stays with GM or goes to another battalion, making it a dupe would require a SA+ to spawn it in. As it is now, anyone qualified can host training regardless of their "admin" rank.

This statement is Wrong in every word and meaning. First the TECH/EOD hanger is NOT a GM hanger, it is OPEN TO ALL HANDS and is stated on the front of the hanger. It is meant for all to share, and use it as they need to keep their training up to date and practice. -1 To the idea of removing the hanger because there is a better solution, and one that will probably happen. We put Null back in with RC hanger at the end and give RM that old NULL hanger next to CGs Hanger. That is all!

Wiping a battalion is NOT the most viable action. Let us NOT GO DOWN THAT path except in extreme situations and this I believe IS NOT one of those!
