  1. He wasn't speaking as a staff member but as a player and lets not talk about who is/isn't a good influence when there are plenty of people in higher positions and do worse or act inappropriately in more general circumstances. I all for more strict standards if they are to handed out equally and everyone is expected to uphold but i am sure that the majority wouldn't go along with any standards Regardless of any of that what makes this directly a staff related issue vs a player report? There no issue of staff power abuse. Or failing to do a staff duty. So why is this even related to staff this is just my feeling got hurt so have a staff report when you also didn't take any action in game to resolve the issue. which was against a CG shooting a rocket and splash damage destroying you tac and killing you and you didn't call staff to help, you didn't place a AOS/RAOS or complained to CG command about the person who caused your issue. instead a third party made a comment and because they have a SA next to their name thats a staff report? I fail to follow the logic as he only made a comment on the situation you've only give one singular out of context cropped screen shots implying Baron was mean to you and nothing else so you don't even have good grounds on proving what happened.
  2. You'd be best separating these as suggestions as the general way suggestions are done is either the whole thing is approved or the whole thing is denied
  3. I'm not sure couldn't we just use the intercom for that? My thought is what would we use precorded lines or a google autogen type voice
  4. Oh christ no that thing is forever crashing -1
  5. If there is no med RP going on, and you are a independent agent who wants Med RP. Then go do it yourself. There is a ray shield that can be activated for the hallway in the booth and surgery area. If you want a ray shield on the main door get somone to make a fadining door dupe that can be placed. Or get someone to place a text screen if you want someone to notice you. Providing a random button does not do much present a clearer argument for what you want
  6. @Forseen member we tried to get these added? but 15mb for one job?
  7. We've had them before they were hardly utilised and even less by the server at large like the cafeteria. Just get someone to make a dupe and have it placed when you want to fo something with it -1
  8. A man of my own heart This seems accurate to that quote
  9. I like the Idea of a miners guild more civi shit would help create more passive RP but I am not a fan of the add on or any sort of dark RP stuff really That died with Joah didn't it
  10. Other than RP with Omega what can they explicitly do with RP that no on else can do or that they add specially without it being something that is a gameplay function like negotiations? I am on this point only because in regards to their lore there isn't anything special about them other than they hate mandalorian's and that's about it. So I'm fine with saying that the people in 2ndAC care about RP and may be really good at it but that would be a thing independent of Parjai not because of it. That is a new model as it may be a reskin it will still take up space because it is still a model and requires textures it would function like the bounty hunter "skins" sure they use the same base model but they are still individual models too and if they need to be compatible with the previous body groups or it would need to have them all added to the reskin. Unless a dev wants to explain that more. Omega have their nights ops and their lore colours sure do they only really need one set sure but they have lore to support it plus they so little resources go into their squad. Night ops armour for your unit why? why should the 212th in that regard be so special because if you want contextual use armour why shouldn't then everyone else not then request something like that for themselves. Below is some of the only lore Parjai has and they interaction with Omega and how they feel about the night ops armour In 21 BBY, the 2nd Airborne Company was stationed aboard the Republic auxiliary ship Core Conveyor, along with the Republic commandos of Omega Squad. The paratroopers resented Omega Squad because of their Mandalorian heritage - the 2nd Airborne had lost many battles to the Mandalorians. They outfitted Omega Squad with jet packs, which led to some disagreements because the commandos had black armor but the jet packs were orange and white. "Couldn't you at least get us matte-black ones? I don't want to plunge to my doom with uncoordinated accessories. People will talk." "You'll have white, and like it." ―Fi appeals to Barlex for black winged jet packs "Nice of you to join us, Omega, and may I be the first to say that you look like a bunch of complete prats?" ―Barlex greets Omega Squad I have not really found this anywhere within their lore. Sure the page you posted say "elite unit" as a describer but no actual source to what makes them elite in the book they appear in they are just a squad in the 2nd airborne company nothing special. Most lore pages that talk about units call them elite because its a nice descriptive tool I confirmed this with a few people who know that lore better than myself. To talk about the not necessary point I did not say that at any point although do agree with the sentiment as I want a good justification for it as I am with all suggestions I see that just say add this because I think x thing is just neat. The truth is this body group just plainly isn't necessary and especially if its only use is going to be used for night ops as that just reeks of entitlement. If you want something then you need to justify it and be honest about why you want it as you don't want these models for the "roleplay" or anything like that its because well they exist and personally you and the 212th think they look neat and thats perfectly fine as a position to have but thats the only real argument for these Ive been trying to point out logistics of adding things blindly and if they do nothing really for RP. Also if you get these models then the next time the 104th wants something or the Jedi/Sith/CIS/BH want something we then need to give it the same credence as this post I am not trying to be awkward but I am expressing fair scrutiny i feel
  11. That means that you want them for cosmetics but only certain contexts that makes your argument for them even worse. if you want it for Parjai and they wont even use it full time, what next a faction that only exists in events? But on a more serious note seeing as you haven't provided a link to the size of the models only screen shots of them.So the file size cost is currently unknown the 501st when they last wanted a model/job being added they had to loose a job and model that being Echo to add Vaughn and seeing as you both have the same amount of jobs and models maybe more already. So would you be willing to loose access to some other models or jobs if it came down to it for these models like the 501st did? Regardless if there on a new job or just the standard ones they are still going to take up extra space on the sever. Truthfully we really do need to justify this addition when weighed against what is currently there vs other battalions and factions. Especially when you are trying to justify it for "Victory Squad" who make a cameo in a Republic Commando novel and who has a passing mention they that are being deployed to Utapau who were pretty much described as standard looking 2ndAC. if you where after making a argument for all 2ndAC to look like that sure I'd complain lore but cest la vie we have havoc squad to hurt that argument. ThIs is just as the server does not unlimited in terms of space and the devs, founders and what now to my knowledge have a allocated amount of space any battalion has in terms of sever allocated resources and each addition means they need to re-evaluate what is currently there and what would need to go to justify the change.
  12. we'd need to define emulate as Many religions in star wars are a hodgepodge of religions and could arguably be emulating religions https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Religion#:~:text=The Force and the Jedi,%2C and Judaism—and Buddhism. -1
  13. I don't recall this going through council you get approval
  14. I mean we can already do stuff with the same effect with just a little creativity I.e just texture yourself see through and blue sure you won't see and of the near by props but that could be done and if you can't speak then theres not much point -1
  15. -1 The CIS can't really function as RP focused faction being that they are glorified pvp events at this current time and adding a saber user won't help any RP issues that exist this s just wanting a saber using pvp unit which i would be willing to hear the argument for but none of this Lore: Dooku has regularly shown a blatant disregard for the rule of two when it came to him training dark force users to work under him. They were not sith merely tools. trying to justify it as it simply is not true Dooku cared lot about the rule of two. Manly as in he would not wish to anger Sidious again. Every apprentice Dooku had was approved by Palpatine that being Ventress, Savage and Vos. Even then have never understood the complaint about the "CIS" doesn't RP enough. Just on the basis that they are a always hostile enemy faction. In war you don't do a lot of chatting to the enemy generally speaking. Even then Battle droids and clones don't do much smack talk to one another and the only people who ever really communicate with CIS are the senate diplomats and the Jedi Generals and alot of that is during combat. Personally I hate it when people make the argument that Comms RP is a good example of RP during CIS operations as a positive. This is mainly because your average C tier event or even D or worse Tier events will include the most basic comms RP during it. At least with Sith functionally as a faction they had creative things you can do with them. Being dark side force users and the amount of lore that comes with that and potential RP that could be done was high alongside that they could be be neutral or hide as a civies. There were a lot of potential situations that could be created with their presence, Sure there was a lot of bad elements like ROE and other thing immersion breaking and what not but sith as a faction has a identity and limitless amounts of possible things you can do with it. But when it comes to a faction that you at war with and the fact that they only exist for operations what RP can you do? Because to explain the RP of the CIS it would simply be your motivation is that you are a droid and you were designed to destroy the republic and you are 100% the enemy at all times to the republic. Then simply faction built up of droids that's only purpose is to shoot the nearest rep solder. The RP that one can do as the CIS is just not there really unless we want constant commando droids or defector RP other than that ts just engagements. The only thing is that currently the CIS in their current state are nothing but glorified event jobs that not the leaderships fault its just a fact. When sith was a thing at least they had the benefit of being a full time faction. No they won't have you ever been in a event where a sith attacks base? They are some of the first jumping in to Fight Burn RC shotgun Mando Rifle or NT the Sith
  16. You're dead to me
  17. -1 fuck no
  18. I know that and that is why I brought that point up as I thought all the people saying it improves RP was ever foolish and I wanted to point that out. And comms RP outside of Passive stuff is indeed worthless as any and nearly every event has that so that can be treated as special because a raid is happening And as for the well Rancor has half of it command dead and so does the 501st yeah I agree but that doesn't mean we should keep adding to the problem especially for a faction which is glorified event jobs at this point.
  19. Ehh this wouldn't really "improve RP" This would just damage immersion (what little we have) Asajj and Savage never operated at the same time for obvious reasons. Being that Savage was made because Dooku cast Ventress out and she made a assassin. Even then Savage and Ventress are dead by now or at least Ventress is a bounty hunter you'd of been better off asking for Quinlan Voss to enter as admiral enigma besides when the [Expletive] do the CIS ever RP? This is in refrence to the above and possibly below +1's that blindly state "Good for RP" or "Improves RP" Personally unless the CIS becomes a full time functioning faction outside of hop on the Jobs RDM fest then encounter over there is little point to adding more jobs -1
  20. Short answer: Aw hell naw -1 Longish answer: Blacklists are a great method for tracking people and putting a red flag over someones name any black list can be appealed at any time and be revoked at any point also but that is the kind of thing that falls to the digression of a factions/battalions command structure theres plenty of people have permentaly blackisted in my time in command for good reason and they are left as standing until the person who is blacklisted wishes to appeal it from a future command and its that commands then choic to deal with it approve or deny it. Also battalions often regulate and update blacklists frequently anyway the best examples probably being sobde because of their tryout systems.

    Aquitens Classic

    I like the Idea but its nothing but a smaller extensive. So really it would only be useful in small scale deployments and my god the size of those hallways would be cancerous to fight in
  22. +1
  23. I enjoy having more options but is this something that is really nessecacry and will add something as personally I think we should be adding things of excess when we could add something subsative. -1

    Add proning

    -1 I remember when we had it before it caused some really bad performance issues. But I am also thinking about the practicality of this feature and when actually using it would be useful and I can not think of to many situations outside of a sniper using it and hiding. Whenever I have used prone systems in Gmod it is usually bound with the same key as crouch and unless you play toggle crouch it can really be irritating where it doesn't consistently work by when trying to crouch it prones or trying to stand and those commands and imputs get muddled. My other worry is all the clipping and traversal issues that can be caused because Gmod isn't really built to naturally prone and a lot of maps havent been built with that feature in mind.
