+1 Give the man a chance to redeem himself. If Willy stays willy and Havoc stays havoc, I see no problem with this. He's heard the feedback from everyone here, so if he grows he will be a very good commander.

This app was BARE!
You may be a great guy but with the resignation of Claw I think you would function better outside of a BCMD position. You have given no reason as to how you will improve 21st. Can you give some examples?
Still waiting for the comment on the Commander Report aswell.
-1Commander report was voided due to a inter-battalion decision.

@Forseen We are good to close and void this. we had a meeting and have resolved the situation.

He might not have recruited the people. But the battalion obviously looked appealing to the people that got recruited and from what I see that is mainly do to him changing the battalion.
GM has been a very uptight battalion for a long time and had insane requirements to get anywhere in the battalion, so if he changed that, props to him for doing so.
Funny enough the requirements never changed as far as promotions and such. The more serious part has been toned down for sure, but GM hasn't ever really been hard to get promoted as long as you just played.

The process of battalion leadership
1) "We want new BCMD!"
2) "Make this person BCMD"
3) The person everyone wants get BCMD
4) Suddenly they fuck up/everyone is against them.
5) Repeat
Claw was doing great when I was around, but looks like a complete 180 has happened.
I think Claw needs to "defend his case" before a judgement is made by the community & leadership, commander reports in my opinion always result in many people mass +1'ing because of a few things they notice but don't actually look at the bigger picture.
I do agree that this is the basic process of the BCMD, 100%. BUT this wasn't a sudden change, it's something that has been in decline after the beginning. The fact of little change and inactivity shows he does not mind while it spirals downward. Most minus ones are only focused on the parts that aren't against rules, which is fine. It's more on inactivity and the fact he hasn't upheld his application when he applied as well. Of course in the beginning he did "well" since most commanders do, but the few who get comfy and then do nothing is a problem, and this is the best fix as they should already know they have a responsibility to the battalion. I get IRL shit of course, and this is GMod, but we are still people who don't want this Battalion to die.

-1 this situation was handled terribly. 1. you did not follow chain of command in the slightest and "he wouldn't answer" is not a good excuse 2. in your resignation you pinged the entire battalion and whether or not you did that to cause drama that sort of thing causes drama 3. so far you have not given even a sliver of evidence to any of your claims you say that he only responds with a simple "yes" or "no" but you have no proof. that may seem like something small but right now you have no reliability and evidence towards any of your claims would help you
I did follow the chain of command and talked to the person above Claw before I posted this, and in that respect you don't NEED to go to a higher up before posting a report. Though I do agree that a chain of command needs to be followed, myself and others thought this was the best route of progress. The fact he isn't answering is a BIG problem since people are leaving and he is not there to confront this, regardless of circumstance he was pinged on here and discord. All it takes is one reply to show that he hasn't given up or is ghosting, even if its a "Hey, Ill get to this in a bit here, i'm busy." Or "I'm working, i'll reply later." Would be enough. Everyone pings people when they resign, its not to cause drama, its to say goodbye and like that stated show why they left. The way the resignation was made, I would think, was to show his opinion on the current state of the battalion and why he was leaving. Which in my eyes is perfectly fine to criticize anything you find wrong with the server. As far as evidence goes, how would you like me to show you being AFK and being inactive? I could take a 6 hour video if you want, but that is also why I didn't do that, it would take gigabytes of hard drive to show inactivity since I would have to record 24/7 on the server and on the docs to show no activity or change from him. Evidence is not really possible unless you got like a 6 terabyte hard drive. Honestly I have zero Idea what you mean by reliability, so I can't really comment to that.

Not even around much anymore and yet this report seems fishy.
Instead of approaching chain of command properly and having a general talk between Gadget, the officers and Claw in the same room and arrange a meeting. Its come down to this. Sorry to inform you bud, but you can't expect a BCMD to be at their A game and if they're lacking then its your job along-side the battalion to let them know, instead of hiding behind the mask of the public. Pathetic. He has the right to change what he wishes, he's the Battalion Commander.
What's your ambition when he is removed, applying yourself aye? Power play?
Communication is key, there is reason COC exists. If he continues to persist after a stern talking to, then a report seems necessary. But clearly no official discussions took place.
Sorry to inform you bud, but this is the route we decided to take and what I wrote along with others is what we have experianced. I am not hiding behind anybody, thanks for trying to make it seem like we are villians, but these are all proper concerns of this battalion. And actually, I didn't plan on applying, I would support Jaydon or someone else to be the commander, nice try though.

Again, this report isn't about server rules...that is why it doesn't matter.

The Command staff and I would like to reply to this as asked and we feel it is important to inform voters and help the people’s views of the situation by giving our views and opinions of the situation itself. As stated or lack of statement, under the rights of any battalion commanders they may change the battalion by any means to hold numbers without breaking previous rulesets without having to speak with their intel team/high command, This statement goes for most of the changes he has made without us are within his lawful rights. As also stated in the battalion commander’s right “May Promote or Demote any person within their battalion for any reason within the rules listed on this post.” and has not violated rules on that behalf. I’d like to also state on behalf of server rules there are no active rules against AFK’ing on the server outside of being an event job. In the case of your statement “The biggest thing being he is pushing the battalion to move to a Semi Serious role instead of the Strictly Serious role that Galactic Marines and 21st has had in place for over 3 -4 years running, not everyone wants to move to this and he is one of the only ones pushing for it and achieving his goal due to power abuse.“ We’d like to remind the people that he may change the battalion in any means within rules to upkeep the numbers of the battalion as a whole. A majority of your report is actively against the commander changing things inside his battalion for what he may view to be the proper steps to maintain and upkeep his battalion.
Please remember to follow the proper Chain of Command as posted in the “https://synergyroleplay.com/forums/topic/4622-cw-commander-rules-and-regulations/” as stated in this post “If you have an issue with your BCMD try and contacting your Regimental first before going directly to the Marshal/Directors. Especially if the problem is something relatively minor. (This is not a requirement but more of a guideline to follow if any issue arises in a battalion).” and as this post should mostly focus on an activity report as no other rules had been broken within these statements.Its not the fact f him changing the Battalion, its the fact he's not changing it to fix it or make it better, it seems just for himself. We aren't talking about rules here, server wide, if a Battalion has rules that even the commander mentions that he has to follow, and he doesn't care to follow them, that already sets a bad example. With AFKing , again I don't care about the rules, we are making the fact that he's inactive being AFK or not even being on the server. The strictly serious role that the GM had in the past, was one of the best points of the battalion, yes we get more numbers being Lax but that also makes THESE kinda problems. We talked to a higher up and nothing would be resolved talking to him from previous experience talking to him, it doesn't amount to much and this seems like the beest option, as MANY people in this battalion agreed with, and why I posted the report.

you are not wrong, anyone can see if a battalion is dying, and from what i see, it is not.
how are you expecting things to change if you dont talk to him. how is he supposed to know that you want change if you dont bring it up.
this is like a broken record so I will leave it at this
@Claw this is on u buddy
I shouldn't HAVE to tell him that the Batt is dying, he should already be communicating with his officers, which he doesn't.

no but it is isnt his responsibility either to recruit people. he is supposed to keep the battalion running behind the seens. and if you didnt ask him/attempt to talk to him how are you supposed to know it wont help.
lack of communication seems to be why you are making this report
Lack of communication is nothing, again I made this report for the many people. I myself don't have to speak to him to see the battalion going down hill. other people are more then capable to talk to him.
-
Just now, Lix said:
there is 9 people on currently.
it honestly seems like you disagreed with him, which is fine but you didnt bother to talk to him it seems.
and as @Fizzik has stated, the reasons you have layed down are not grounds for removal.
Again, talking to him won't do anything. Trying to talk to him provides nothing besides him realizing we might have done this. "I" am not the person here who fully disagresss, I made this post for many people who feel like he does nothing to further the Batt. Oh 9 people on right now, that's good in all, but that's not Claws doing.
-
Just now, Lix said:
-1 he is allowed to promote/change docs without your guy's permission, altough it is probably not a good idea to no consult your battalion he is doing it probably in the best interest.
i cannot speak for activity as im probably not on when he is on.
@Riot (Number) have you talked to him, try to get an insight as to what he is doing?
i will say that your battlion is thriving currently so I do not see a reason to remove him when things are going so well.
when previous commanders have made it a serious RP battalion it was always a low numbered battalion from my point of view and others.
i do not believe that Claw has done any wrong doing.
Like a previous post I had quoted, you don't know how many people have been leaving due to this. The only high numbers we have is officers, to a point. Even then its scarce to see more then 2-3 NCOS. IT is in no way thriving, Yeah we used to have a bit small numbers as a serious batt, but they were Quality and reliable RPers.

I'm gonna have to -1 this one. Since claw has become Bacara the amount of people in the battalion have gone up to a very high level. This is his battalion, he is allowed to change/alter/promote/demote what he wants how he wants. While you might not agree with it you don't provide any evidence that his promotions/demotions/changes are an act of favoritism or negligence. The only real thing you might have against him based on the what you're saying, in my eyes, is inactivity, of which you should link some stuff for this, like his steam profile hours. Promoting people to any rank is allowed, Please provide a Reason why these promotions are favoritism or something and i might change my answer. Changing things is allowed, he can change rules/regulations/promotion requirements. Speaking as a BCMD Requirements should not be a "you need to uphold this by all means". Requirements are something you have so that your Lower officer ranks learn what kind of work should be expected from someone before going up. They are to help teach people, by no means does a BCMD have to uphold them. I can not count on one hand the times i have upheld my own promotions requirements. BCMD's are the ones that see everything, they know who deserves to go up, and if you're gonna put up a commander report for skipping promotions i should have had 50+ reports on me.
From the outside looking in, I can see where you would interpret that as us complaining about promos or such. It is much more then that if you see what actually happens in the battalion itself. Yes he may change things, but nothing hes changed helped the battalion period, rasing something that just benefits ex bacara's is not something that should be his focus. "amount of people in the battalion have gone up to a very high level" I don't think you've seen how many people left from the battalion so far due to the current state of things. I get some promotions should be there even if the requirements aren't met, but if its too often, other officers start to do it and there requirements are out the window.

Your Name: 21stSC Major Number / Elder Knight Shadow Nox
Your Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:54917029
Your rank/position in the battalion (if applicable)?: Major
Battalion Commander(+)'s Name: Bacara/Claw
Battalion Commander(+)'s Steam ID (OPTIONAL IF UNABLE TO FIND): STEAM_0:0:118334761
Battalion/Squad/Regiment/Brigade: 21 Nova Corps
Why should this Battalion Commander(+) be demoted?: Among a list of things that could grant his removal/demotion range from self promotion to changing battalion rules and documents without consulting the Intel team or his High ranking officers. Promoting people inside the battalion 2-3 ranks above where they were currently at without having them do the promotion requirements. Implementing a “medal” system where he is the only one to receive / have any medals and no one else can obtain or achieve due to the fact he hasn't told anyone the requirements to get said medals. He has also been seen afk during prime time and peak hours playing another game, where he should be hosting sims and activities for the battalion to do. The biggest thing being he is pushing the battalion to move to a Semi Serious role instead of the Strictly Serious role that Galactic Marines and 21st has had in place for over 3 -4 years running, not everyone wants to move to this and he is one of the only ones pushing for it and achieving his goal due to power abuse. He also abuses his power by using his Bacara/XO Status to get the whitelist for the Shadow Company (SO ARC) Job without ever even being in 21stSO. He even asked to have a number reserved for him even though he has NEVER been in SO. He has also reformatted Legacy requirements and given ranks that were put in place by BCMD’s before him and never brought up any of the changes to the battalion or high command when they were changed and put in place. For example someone given the rank of legacy would receive CPT for being legacy, he has changed that to MAJ where this change would give unnecessary power to those returning and haven't been around to see what is new and changed. It also doesn't give the person coming back from legacy an opportunity to move up instead they are stuck at their rank with no room to move up until XO or BCMD becomes available.
Reading into his application, he so far has failed to do anything promised and constantly does nothing as the BCMD. The whole of his application has been a lie for the past month, as the battalion has been in decline and many people are demanding a change. Any talk toward him makes no changes besides him becoming more reserved and making him have the inability to have proper conversations that would improve the battalion. There is no training, no “functional, independent, and professional” doings on his part. Many people are frustrated and have commented and lent information for this report, it's not just one or two people, it's many of the higher ups and NCOs that feel this way. He claims to have the experience in this application, but all we can see is the fact that he has just been sitting in this position and doing nothing to help. Most of not all of the work has been done by others, without his assistance.
This is a resignation from a 21st that was made this week talking about issues in the battalion:
“I'm going to be honest here, it's Claw. Claw, you're inactive, you speed promoted at random without regarding the TIGs/Reqs (an example is Darren from CPT to MAJ within 3 days of promotion), dumped all of your responsibilities on Jaydon, you said that you would help Oatmeal create the roster then didn't do so, you said that you would work on KU reqs but never did, you went against EVERYTHING you said that you hated about the inactive Senior Officers whenever you became Bacara (seeming like you were just trying to get my support when you were a Senior Officer yourself), you use all of the Officers that help you run the battalion to beef up your future Spec Reg application, tried to fish troopers from SO into KU, used your XO position to get a Shadow Company whitelist even though you've never been a SO, you play ROBLOX most of the time you're active nowadays (which is very little) then you log your hours that you were AFK for in the officer check in, you don't actually give responses or answers to suggestions you deny, you aren't transparent on the actions you take with the battalion, and you don't listen to your officer corp (you mainly just lead them on).”
Has this Battalion Commander violated one of the rules for demotion?:
https://synergyroleplay.com/forums/topic/4622-cw-commander-rules-and-regulations/
Inactivity, among other factors that would lead him to be an ineffective commander.
Evidence against the individual?: If you really want me to get a video of them I can, but a video of someone AFK is hardly evidence.
Suggestion for new Commander of that Battalion (OPTIONAL)?: N/A

Tell us why you want to be an administrator (6 sentence minimum): I wish to be an administrator because this server is my home aay fom home at this point. I want to help it grow and keep the people who wish it harm away. I look to help people when ever I can, as a trainer I try to train as much as possible. This community is going in a very good direction so far and I want to be part of it once more. I have an extensive staff history, the reason is because usually when I join a server I get dedicated to it and want to help the server and be part of that community. I was staff a long while ago, back in 2017 but didn't make the cut since there were so many other new admins fighting for spots and work killed most chances for me, but i'm here to try again.
Tell us a little about yourself (3 sentence minimum): Well, I'm 27 and I've been playing Gmod roleplay servers for around 10 years. Currently working as tech support for a program and I get yelled at on a daily basis. Other them working for money I drink alcohol and play on here because I have no life. Not much else about myself that I know of, but I guess if you want to know me personality wise, I'm pretty laid back and it takes a long time for myself to become angry So, yeah I'm not fully interesting, but I'm human I guess?
Do you have any previous staff experience? If yes, please elaborate on what you have accomplished: This would be very hard to put into a detailed list, since I've been admin on a multitude of servers over my stay in GMod. I've Ran servers and held admin roles in plenty of Half Life Serious RP servers, I've ran deathrun servers, I've also been in other Roleplays such as military RP and some fantasy groups all as a admin at one point. I am a supervisor in real life so a lot of that experience dealing with people is somewhat easy to me now.
How many hours of in game time do you currently have on our Clone Wars server?: 354:54:43 Since I was on all the time back in 2017 and came back a year ago only to have to deal with IRl stuff, then back now.
