Since rejoining Stix has been very active and already taken up a commitment inside the Jedi order as a lore jedi. Stix has always been easy to work with and that seems to remain true to this day. I think that it would be good to have him back and it would greatly help the EU part of the staff team to have a experienced staff member back.
Aslong as you don't rejoin and leave Torrent Company for the 100th time again ;)

Now to touch upon what Tino said about the sign ins.
During my time as Boss and Sev when you were Kal, Numerous Squad members some of which are still in Null have been doing this. And the fact that you haven't done anything about them beside maybe giving them a warning, Under a Fuck up and Get Removed policy. Normally if you were caught faking sign ins you would be removed no? Correct me if I'm wrong please.
Overall I'd advise you to have a second reading of my response to Tino, if you've even read it. There was a member of Null who was faking/siginig in while AFK , this along with activity issues got them removed. You were around in SO BDE during this so I'd assume you'd remember that but perhaps not. To further add, we don't remove without proof and certianty, if there are more that are still in the squad then why have you never brought that up to me? We we're both squad leads, I'd trust that if you saw a problem with my squad you'd bring it to me just as I would to you regarding your squad. Even now after the fact you can still contact me about it, if you believe there is a problem that we're missing you should tell us, all BCMDs/leads try their best but they can't know everything.
10 hours ago, Bleach said:Next. The only times that I have seen Null on were when they were hosting Tryouts, Last time I checked but this was a Roleplay server not a Tryout Server. And once you have completed the rounds for the day, Your squad doesn't do any form of RP they go to the nearest corner and stare at it for quite a while or they go to Bunks and stand there for a while. Not doing any RP.
When I've hosted tryouts they've ussually been EU evening time, so by the time we're done I'd often head to bed with it being around midnight. Tryouts are a big deal and after having hosted for an extended period I'd get wanting to do something else for a bit, there are reasons we try and not host every day but every other day to have time for general gameplay and roleplay. Now when it comes to interaction, I've interacted with you several times outside tryouts, last time being yesterday outside of brig, when other Null were also ingame. Seeing that I've seen you several other time and us not even sharing time zones I'd say that the other Null would have to activly avoid you not to be seen by you. Then again I can't speak for what you see and don't, but I know for certain when it comes to my own interactions with people.
11 hours ago, Bleach said:This too ^ You should be able to trust your XO especially when they're hosting tryouts, I can understand maybe the first tryout that they host as XO I can understand spectating him but after that you should trust him. When Chew was my XO I trusted him to host Tryouts along with Young, I spectated both of their first tryouts after that, I trusted them. And I would trust your Current XO (Eclipse) considering his past as Bad Batch XO and all. And I Completely agree with Tino when he says that Null feels isolated more than ever.
I feel like I made it very clear in my earlier response about this. I would advise you to read that, if you haven't. Now with this also you know yourself that Eclipse has hosted tryouts without me several times with you having helped or been around in TS for those times, both when he himself has hosted or when I've had to step away and he's taken over with no problems. I don't quite get where you are getting this from to be honest rather then what others have said were again where they are getting it from is not clear either. In fact during tryouts most of Null are given jobs to do that I could do myself but that they do beacuse I trust them to do so, now I can't mention specifics but you having been around our tryouts should know what I'm refeering to. Other SO BDE members also play key roles in the tryouts but again I firstly push Null to do it generally cause one day it will be them running these tryouts hopefully so they should be well informed of the parts.

Good to engage most of the base both in passive RP that actually tested the players abilities and in some shooting. Especially good as it put a CT front in center for the event. I liked it and had fun as did most it seems, simple yet solid event.

-1 reasons below
1. Your activity is at what was barely acceptable when you were MCMD. at 41.5 hours in the past two weeks
2. Yours squads activity has been lacking
3. Your enforcement of the rules has been nothing but horrible. Chasemann has been arrested at least 3 times during your term as Kal and has yet to be removed for whatever reason.
4. Your Squads effort into roleplay and upholding the high standard that is meant to be SOBDE is lacking
5. it seems you are going to apply again for the sake of getting it again, i personally don't think you should go for it again.
6. Your squads culture from what i have experienced and heard from other SOBDE members is very toxic and self centered. Personally i think the only way to fix that is an entire wipe of the squad. You have allowed for a toxic culture to fester and grow promoting breaking of the rules and not removing members who break the overarching rules of SOBDE, because of whatever reason you decide at the time. I believe along with many others who are too scared to voice their opinions due to community not liking them or whatever that allowing you to continue to be Kal will not only harm the squad but SOBDE as a whole.
Activity: I just came of an LOA (you can check the LOA post i made) hence the drop in GMOD hours, on a seprate note, my activity is publicly stated in the SO BDE sign in channel which is more then open to the SO BDE REG and the Marshal if they believe there are activity concearns with me, yet there have been none. Then again you wouldn't know of this so I get you. Members of the squad that failed to meet activy quotas are no longer in the squad that being 1-2 members.
Enforcements: We tend to remove for arrests yes, however if an arrest is falesed / reversed wich has been the case for the arrests you are refrencing then we as you have noticed, dont remove. During my tenure as Kal as a whole I've had to remove 5-6 members, we enforce our rules and remove when need be.
The rest just seems like you opinion and POV which I wont really touch on. However if you've had toxic interaction with SO BDE please tell me about it, I see stuff from my POV but and outside view is always helpful but if you're experiencing this and not informing me or Ordo then we can't do much about it. Other people have told me their concearns about members of Null, for example a dispute with some 21st members some weeks ago which was dealt with ASAP between me, the Null involved and a 21st officer.
Also those "others" are more then welcome to share their concearns to me personally or on this post, one shouldn't fear sharing their opinion. Unless if that opinion is saying you don't like meatballs then we have a problem ;)

In the whopping 46 days of returning to SO BDE, I barely see any Null on with the exclusion of Ordo (Eclipse) and Prudii (Pancakes) and the occasional sighting of Mereel (Chaseman) (Kinda repeat myself here but it gets my point across). Now, I get that real life comes first, it's just a game. Other than the mandatory sign ins required by SO BDE members every three days with three hours minimum of playtime. I barely see yourself or the other Null's on. Seeing all Null's together, is an inspiring sight. Though it's like a solar eclipse and I believe that the activity policies aren't enforced.
1 hour ago, Tinovious said:In regards to behaviour, it may of improved. Although the quality of Null is hindered with the lack of actual engagement and RP with the community unless it's an event or something that actually includes them. On many occasions, I've seen Null hopping around the map, or sitting in TS playing minecraft, AFK'ing on their jobs and still including that on their sign ins. With such a position rich with lore. They lack the knowledge of their characters, and often have to be reminded of their lore, and wait for opportunities to come to them, not go out and find them.
We have had several members of Null not meeting our requirements of activity and those members have not remained in the squad as such. In such our policies were enforced, we have the same standards as the rest of SO BDE when it comes to activity and in the past when we've had people signing in while being afk they've reprimanded for doing so. If you've seen this yourself when I haven't been on perhaps you should have told me or Ordo about it so we that we can do something about it, we can't see everything. Most members add information on their sign ins if they've been away or doing something else instead of doing several sign in, I myself do so.
When it comes to behavior during the start of my time as Kal we had to remove people for what they were doing and had to change rules and enforce new rules so that would change, you weren't around during this so I can understand it being hard to see a difference, in my opinion the number of removals mirrored this change which is why I brought it up.1 hour ago, Tinovious said:When ever I've been to Null Tryouts, Helped in them or just been associated with them in general. My opinion on them is very high, because it's the path a member has to take into becoming a SO BDE member. There's always a boast that it "Took 80 something rounds to fill a position" which isn't good at all. I can't say much, As I'll technically be leaking tryouts. Though the current Null tryouts feels like a battalion tryout with a one strike system, that employs tedious tasks instead of actually testing said tryoutee with their knowledge of the character and their ability to RP or bring fresh new RP to the table. It's a very long, tedious process all together. Adding on, for the current Ordo to host tryouts, it often requires your permission to host, and requires a Null member to own the dupe. Especially when other active SO BDE squad members are on to help with said tryout which leads me to my next point.
There seems to be a large factor of yourself not trusting the members of your squad with responsibility or even other SO BDE members at that, it's a dupe. it's not like we're going to see the tryout itself, which all dwells within a document. Especially when your Ordo requires your permission to host tryouts to do something insignificant. On top of that fact that Null feels isolated more than ever.It has been clear that we have a difference on opinion on tryouts. The one interaction we've had about the tryouts were you complaining and not being happy with the changes that have been made. If you have helped with out tryouts after the changes we made you might have a different view yet I myself at least have not seen you around those. We test all possible RP in our tryouts and especially the parts that relate to the Null position they are trying to get into. You know this if you've been helped over the entire tryout. My experience with you and the tryout was that you didn't like what we were doing and just called it dumb. Criticism is always needed and If you were to provide actual ideas for change we could have had a dialogue about it but at the time yelling and calling our way of doing it dumb was all it amounted to.
Now when it comes to trust and passing down responsibility Ordo has been able to host tryouts without me from day one, I however try to have us host together rather then alone as we can better discuss the people and attending. Yet he is not staff and can as such not spawn the dupe. The other members of staff in my Squad being Foxey and Chase have the dupe to be able to place it for him when I cannot. Other SO BDE members also have it just incase. As anyone in charge of an SO BDE squad I wish to keep the dupe secure, and as such keep it with fewer people. I prefer doing most things in unison with Ordo such as decision and such but he can and has made calls on his own when its been needed. Eclipse is Ordo and he wouldn't be Ordo if I didn't trust him with such things. To say that I don't trust him would be a lie.
1 hour ago, Tinovious said:Responsibility is a big thing, and my last paragraph kind of seems to contradict your point (Or it's my brain telling me it does to make me feel better). It seems that there is a total lack of trust for your fellow Squad mates, and which directs me to the earlier point of just holding onto the position for the sake of it when you've openly said you've got suitable replacements.
Ideal would be that all Null would be suited for the position of Kal. There will always be several people suited for a role and the members of Null are free to apply for Kal if they wish. I've done a good job as Kal in my opinion, I still love being Kal and my Squad still wants me as Kal. As such I have run again. I made specefic remarks on my last reap that I wanted there to be more options for future Kals which there now is. Just because others also can apply for Kal doesn't mean that I shouldn't. I still believe in my abilities and believe that my terms have gone well and as such I wish to continue doing what I like and am good at.
We disagree on many things Tino, if you have any concern, ideas or complains you can bring them to me. You've always been able to do so and will still be able to do so. In the future I hope that you do so if you have problems so we can try and improve Null. Having and outside view is always useful.
Take care :)-

Steam Name:
Synr.gg | Omalic
RP Name:
Special Advisor Kal Skirata
Steam ID (SteamID Finder):
STEAM_0:1:93719402
Battalion or squad you are applying for:
Null Squad
How many terms you've held the position?:
2
Why do you wish to maintain this position?:
I wish to remain Kal because I still believe that I have what it takes to run Null stably and proficiently. I'm well versed in the role as Kal and I still very much enjoying being apart of the tight little squad. While I'm happy to say that I have suitable replacements within my squad I still believe that I am best suited to continue running things as Kal and as such should do so. I believe Null is running fine under my leadership and as such don't see a reason why that would need to change, my Squad still wants me as their Buir and I still want them as my sons, and hopefully that will remain so.Current availability:
Afternoons and evenings on weekdays and most of the time over the weekends. Note: (GMT+1 Timezone)
What have you achieved within your battalion/squad during your past term?:
A major change between my 1st and 2nd term was the number of Nulls we had to replace. During my first term, 4-5 members of Null were removed from the squad. We realized that our rules and standard weren't good enough and that a change would have to take place to both make sure that the current Null members would behave and that any new Null would be of a certain quality. Many rules were changed and activity policies were enforced more. During my 2nd term, the people leaving Null were all on good terms, either with activity problems or a want for something else. I hated having to remove so many members yet it is the job of Kal, and I'm proud to say that my 2nd term was much better in that regard and as such that the quality and behavior of the members of null has improved.
Something that has been an ongoing change throughout my time as Kal has been changes in our tryouts. I believe we've come a long way in making the tryout fairer and more focused on testing the tryoutees skills, knowledge and attention, rather than employing tricks every other second. There are way less "tricks" and parts of the tryouts were entirely changed to make it challenging but also fun in a way. I hope to continue improving the tryouts over time and make it both more fun for us to host and for those who attend.What improvements or changes do you plan on making within your battalion/squad?:
Null has improved a lot in areas where we were laking in the past (mentioned above) yet one thing has always loomed over the squad, attitude. Null is special in many ways and one particular one being the way they are roleplayed, having a sort of superiority complex. I've been told that several other players perceive members of null as rude and cocky. While I believe that one should act as one's lore character would one also needs to be respectful and decent in their actions and words. We need to work on this more both by making a change in how we act and in informing people of how we do act and why one would do so. This also comes to OOC and in TS were Null need to improve in their overall engagement with other community members.
While there always will be room for more improvements other than that there is nothing specific that I want to make a major change to. Overall I believe Null is running fine and that I can continue to run it that way. Changing stuff just for the sake of doing something isn't good for the squad, if we're already in a good state then I will do all I can to keep us in that state.Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?:
Yes I do.

Killjoy is a solid commander. Back when I was Rex, Killjoy was my most reliable commander and served as my defacto XO despite not holding the rank. Killjoy has showed that he can command and that the ATK regiments stands behind him. I believe he is suited to be ATK REG. However I also believe that 501st is in need of a strong leader and if Killjoy becomes REG that there needs to be capable person to command 501st in his stead. I'd prefer you helping 501st as Rex, however, it can also be done as REG untill a Rex can be apointed. I understand the concerns with him recently having come back, which I mentioned to him when we spoke about his intentions to run for REG yet I believe that with how he's helped 501st get back on its feet now and from the work he's done in the past that I can look past this.
Killjoy was and is a good commander, I was more then happy to intrust him with command of 501st back in the day and from what he's shown since coming back that fact remains true. If he's able to work the same a regimental as he did/does as commander then we're in for a solid ATK Regimental.

Story: Some goons decided out of the kindness in their hearts to deliver some lifeday gifts to the republic base and the troopers within. Said gifts very not so jolly as they contained explosives ment to kill the personel on base, most bombs failed so they pulled back to their ship/landingzone base. They defended it as long as they could but the republic did no take the gift so well and responded in force quickly killing all hostiles and giving them back and explosive gift aswell.

The huntmaster then arrived to assist his men yet it was to late and his force was cut in half with 1 of his ships being destroyed by the republic before he escaped with his flaggship from the planet.

I had the pleasure to watch Gaster host an event today and it clearly showed that he knows what he's doing and that we would be a fine GM. He's already doing the work as a GH so I see no reason he shouldn't be able to continue in the program as a GM.
