You never leave, you'll be back eventually, I still play GMOD on other game modes(Especially since one of my old communities from 2013/2014 got revived for the 3rd time) while im taking a break from SWRP. -

Reason for leaving: I would of written this on thursday however ive been busy with life and graduation. Server is just not fun anymore, community often feels split. Only time im able to get a laugh or just actually be able to relax is when im playing with Ron and people in Synergy Gaming club, or if im on TTT. This is often cause just feels like its more alive and people are more communicative. I may go in depth later however with graduation and family in town I really dont have time to go on the long tangent. Also ill probably still stay active on the forums as staffing as a forum mod is relaxing b/c I get to laugh at all the dumbshit yall do and then go and hide it cause yall dumbasses cant follow simple forum rules
Farewells: I feel it would be disrespectful if I were to just quickly sum up my farewells to everyone or not properly think about the list as it just wouldnt show the respect for all the members ive met since ive come back into the community

Summary of the story: I got about 10 troopers to Race around a circuit to prove their Speed. Winner got 600k Credits. As simple as follow the circuit, however obstacles were added after each course.
What was the result of the event?: 501st SGT Rickle won the race

While most of this I get, the Lightsaber was used to kill me in Medbay at one point. Otherwise ye I get ya
The lightsaber never actually killed anyone. it was shadow strike. To use shadow strike you have to enable the saber for a split second.

3.5/4 This was a ton of fun! Only major complaint is the weird Infection creature having a lightsaber? That was weird. Otherwise enjoyed it
Rp wise the Creature didnt have a lightsaber. In order to get model to look like that the Lighsaber weapon/Swep was use. Then force abilities that would make sense for it were used. IE: Cloak/Shadow Strike(Creature would camouflage then strike form shadows), Lightning to act as like acidic spit, Whirlwind to act as if hes picking you up. Adrenaline as sort of momentary speed boost. The lightsaber itself was never actually used.

Kid seems like a Chronic wannabe lmao. Atleast Chronic made his trolling funny and was fun to watch.

t h e s e r v e r i s f u c k i n g d y i n g
first off i want to say, ive played this server for two years. Made friends on this server. Met people i now consider family and gone through some depressing shit while playing this server, During that time ive noticed alot of flaws and of course. what server doesnt have them?
Aidsfuse? money whores
Superior? .. Money whores
Synergy?
Bluntly the founders need to be more active and step it up outlining it specifically
Ron. Ron is a fucking cry baby and has made so many bluntly false statements about battalions and the server making false statements on CG and ranting to myself and one of my friends for TWO FUCKING HOURS about the server rules and why he shouldnt have been arrested for RDM even though he killed someone with a lightsaber rifle and addmited it. he as a founder asked me multiple times what the rules were during that arguement, while also making statements about the rules and (false ones) about RDM and why he shouldnt have been arrested. thats not how a founder should act in my opinion and while i do respect the work that ron or anyone in the high-staff/director/founder roles have done im simply outlining things that i believe to be wrong with the server
Joah. Joah from my experience is childish with his perms as a founder and owner and has abused them in the past to ban people for 2 seconds as memes or getting on droideka jobs and mass RDMing to anime music and while its funny at times. Still not what a founder should be doing
Jackson. I cant talk about jackson, Ive never met him and hes not given me a reason to speak ill against him
Zim. Zim is the good founder on this list, during the time he was in the owner spot filling in for joah shit got fucking done. suggestions went through, He kept his word. He was active. made models, helped staff, did fucking everything, the dudes a legend
Community
The community needs to stop being fucking toxic (Ironic i know)
But from people force naming their names to intentionally be a fucking 4 page document on why they are the kool kids to people having full on arguements in OOC to even then having members that break rules and dont get banned from people making mistakes that shouldnt be made even though your needed to this community
(scribbles. to name one)
Servers
stop making servers!
Focus on CWRP stop having side projects that arent needed when your main server is fucking dying
MRP
SCPRP
RUST
ARK
Ect. you need to focus on CWRP. Set rules in fucking stone make sure battalions dont get unfair treatment and make sure things arent broken constantly. The prices for perma weapons are actually insane, None of them are worth their price for their output as a usable weapon, 21st losing their trooper job without warning. CG getting fucked left right and centre 24/7 ect. fixing certain vehicles that are broken, Y-wings have no sound CG laat is still fucked and apparently causes crashes, Fox's description being busted. jobs not having guns they should, (21st not having westars, Thire not having ARC weapons) On top of all of that you fucked already existing weapons and made them literally unusable. Z6 is horrible now because you run out of ammo before you even get up to full speed. DC-15s is literally storm trooper aim and is dogshit, DC-17s being all over the place as far as aim and damage goes, founders saying to make server suggestions then promptly fucking denying the server suggestions and never touching on it again, saying hundreads of times that map rotations would become a thing yet with everything else nothing comes of it,
I loved this server and i still do hold a place for it in my heart and i know alot of other people do and ive asked most of all of my friends from this server and they've all said they give synergy till the end of this year if that, this isnt something only the founders can fix. its gonna take all of us to work together and fix this shit. Once CWRP is fixed THEN you go out and do shit. But the money thats going to ARK and rust servers could go to a new server box. Get LSF on the server something that everyones wanted for awhile
Finally i know everyone has a life everyone has family to tend to and particularly so in this time, but for how long this shit has been going on and for how many people ive heard say it, Its time to fix this server and get it back to what it was, what it could be. to the founders specifically if you say something, Keep your word on it. If you say something it should be fact if you say your gonna do it fucking do it. Dont just say you'll do it and 2 months later have people wondering where that update is..
theres a reason "SoonTM" and "June 1st" are memes on the server
Honestly, You've had one time encounters with all the founders. I have had multiple conversations with all of them(Except for @Square, who you forgot existed in your list and has also put in countless hours in the DEV side of the server).
Let me go down your AIDS list,
First off
Ron; He barely gets on the CWRP server, yes when he does he sometimes minges, however most of the time when hes on he enforces strict RP, attempts to get the server active with events, or even rebuilds the commons area so it doesnt look fucking barren. Something that ATM is of course barren once again. I hated Ron over on IFN because the dude overstepped his fucking boundarys however over here he mostly lays low and does shit from the background. The dude has revamped the website so many times. Has revamped the shop. Has kept up with TS suggestions and helped to improve the TS management. Has properly gotten a team together to manage the forums so that Toxic posts aren't as prevalent as they were back when Synergy first opened. The dude has helped with so many technical aspects out of G-Mod to the point that he really is the Technical guru of our community.
Joah; Joah often minges or fucks around on the server, however more often then not he will host big events or do activities on the server in which keeps the server very entertained. "He shouldnt minge around on the server BLAH BLAH BLAH" Hell nah. If he was a head-admin I would feel this way. You know why? B/c Head-admins are more of the "Face of the community" The higher ups you should be seeing the most are Head-admins, so head admins will be the ones that set the reputation for the server. Owners/Founders act more like minges b/c they do all the behind doors shit IE Developing the server so ofc they dont want to fucking be 100% serious. Not only that if you ask the player base more than half will say that its pretty entertaining when founders Joah/Zim/Etc minge around on the server and just do random shit for the player base. As long as they arent Mass Rdming or encouraging rule breaks, I really dont give a shit what they do as often more than not It makes my time on the server more enjoyable.
Jackson & Square; Since you dont really talk to Jackson and you completely left out square, both dudes are the ones doing major development ATM on the server(From what Ive heard). Jackson and Square test all new suggestions quite a bit, as the final phase of suggestions(Again from what ive heard) is founders testing it then it goes through Approval of Joah. Both dudes have put a shit ton of development into the server.
Zim; You basically already said it, dude is like the big papi of server development and when he touches a project more likely then not it gets done, and he basically goes beyond what was suggested and puts his own ideas into it that helps to amplify the suggestion.
Community; Ngl I some what agree the community has turned toxic. I remember when channels were open more. Now every battalion has become a cult that likes themselves in their channel and doesnt communicate with other battalions. OOC toxicity? More often then not you have staff such as myself or Head admins who when we see flaming in OOC we will warn people to STFU if not they will get muted. We have server rules describing OOC toxicity, so if you feel someone is being toxic in OOC, make a ticket. It will get handled. Let me ask you when you see someone flaming in OOC what do you do? Nothing you just watch from the sidelines. Most of the community just watch two members flame each other without intervening which is honestly disgusting.(Also some of you may mention im toxic in TTT, and yea thats true, cause I fucking like to banter when its a gamemode primarily about killing other people)
Servers;
"Stop making servers"
Ok first off, more often then not each founder is handling their own server. But almost Always they all have there attention still on CWRP with atleast 2 still being tasked with the CWRP server.
MRP? Server died pepega
SCPRP? Servers development got halted basically and full attention went back to CWRP
Rust? Shut the fuck up. You dont play the rust server. None of the players their are even from CWRP basically. The Rust server is all based from pure Rust players. Shit ive even gone into the profiles of some of them and some of them dont even own GMOD. OH NO HOW DARE RON MAKE A RUST SERVER. HE SHOULD PUT HIS ATTENTION BACK TO THE..... ? Oh YEAH THE FORUMS/TS/SHOP , OH WAIT HE ALREADY DOES THAT. PEPEGA
Ark? Only two of the like 5 founders are focusing on ARK, however from what ive heard its basically mostly Korm and Square handling the Ark's development now. (So once again, its not all the founders. Almost as if each founder is doing their own thing will some still focus on CWRP).
TTT; on god Zim really hasnt had to do much for TTT, he took alot of files from the old TTT server and alot of the TTT development is very easy, as TTT is a gamemode you can just slap together.
So with that all being said, honestly I prefer not having all the founders working on the CWRP server, want to know why? Have you ever tried to do a project where 5+ people have their hands in the fucking pot? Its aids, everyone is always stepping over each other. Having one or two primary members focusing on the project makes it go alot smoother without having to worry about what other members are doing on the project.
"Make rules set in stone" Lmfao the Directors just did a whole new rule list that was in need of revamping due to new stuff in the server. They had 5+ members of the community look for loop holes/etc in the rules doc.
"Price for perma weapons are insane" Almost as if so that its not too pay too win. Almost so that if you buy a perma weapon you have a slight advantage but you are not a one man army. Lmfao. Not only that they upped the credits on NPC kills, which honestly the amount of credits from killing NPCS is insane.
"21st Losing their trooper job" I havent really heard much about this topic so I can not say.
"CG getting fucked" Im not even going to discuss this, almost half of the server is tired of yalls bitching about how yall got fucked when its just things such as Handcuff's or Weapon Checkers/Strippers. What is this really gonna do for yall? We already Bind people or pat them down. This will change it from RP to actuality. Yes it will make it a little immersive, but its not enough to the point where you can say "CG are getting fucked". Null Got their special weapons taken away. We are now basically a Battalions Marksman class or Heavy class/etc. Do you hear us bitching? No. Plenty of battalions have gotten fucked yet for some reason we dont bitch as loud as CG.
"Fixing vehicles" Honestly I dont know if anyone in the Dev Team or founders really have worked on assets such as vehicles. Zim is a modeler basically from what I remember. However I do know they are working to implement new vehicles onto Event server that have Corresponding AI to them. If you want vechiles fixed, suggest a solution or atleast give a developer that can help to fix the solution. Random:"ME WANT FIX NOW" Intel:"Ok how? Do you know anyone that could possibly fix the problem?" Random: "ME WANT FIX NOW!"
"Jobs not having weapons, GM not getting Westars" First off 21st should not all have Westaars, at some point the server decided that all of GM used westars however if you look at any movie, or episode,etc. You see their primary weapon of use was the DC-15A. Yes the primary users of the Westar were ARC and GM however a fraction of the GM used westars. The GM basically use a few marines using westars to justify all marines getting westars. This is why I believe galactic marines should instead suggestion a specialized trooper job to get the westars.
"Thire not getting weapons" Oh hey look another bug that I didnt find on the Bug report page. PEPEGA
"Z6 Being trash" For 154 bullets you get that max RPM. The only reason the z6 feels bad is because it hits like a fucking BB gun, BUT HEY LOOK SOMEONE ACTUALLY WENT THROUGH THE RIGHT ROUTE AND SUGGESTED IT GET BUFFED. OH LOOK AT THAT ITS DOING VERY WELL IN SUGGESTIONS. WHO WOULD OF THOUGHT."DC-15S is trash" Wow, you really dont know how weapons work. You probably are the same type of person to attempt to cross map people with a shotgun. Think of it like this the DC-15S is a SMG where the DC-15A is a rifle. In close quarters the S is better want to know why? Hold C on the gun. Look at that it does 75 DMG per shot. It basically destroys anyone in close quarters but sucks at further than like 30+ meters.
"Map rotations" I mean the current maps we were going to rotate to "Endor and extensive" are fucked. But hey look some nice venator suggestions have been made (AND PROPERLY TESTED OMG). Maybe we can make a suggestion to have those in the rotations instead.
"Money could go to a new server box" I mean if youve been paying attention at all to what the founders have been saying(Which you dont. You just nod your head cause you dont care about the technical talk). Clay(Mods) Was working to do a custom server box however complications came about. So they had to order a prebuilt server box, in which is having to be tested. If you use anything without properly testing it, please do not go into the IT field.
"Keep your word, dont do stuff 2 months later" I mean if you pay attention, most of the things that get put off for 2 months is due to complications. IE server box or lightsabers. Lightsabers update was put off for so long because King david's support team is fucking aids and a shitty team that basically acts like indian Tech support. Im sorry to say it, but its kind of like the real world. Shit happens. Complications arise.
"Server is dying" I saved your first statement for last. Gmod itself is dying. Its a dying game. Ive been here on Gmod since 2012 with 8100+ hours clocked in it. These last few months have been the worst for gamemodes such as SWRP, because the most recent Gmod Update fucked up garrys mod quite significantly and has caused more crashes then normal. I will bet most of you have just quit the server saying "Im tired of this crashing fuck the server" without doing research. I have gone into the Gmod official community and have made constant posts to help relieve these crashes, but then again yall dont go out of your way to find your own fixes, you just think its the server. Welp nope its the game itself. Its a 16 year old game running on a 16 year old engine. The game is destined to be shitting itself by now.
Also PS; if you want stuff to be put into the server faster. ACTUALLY TEST YOUR SUGGESTIONS, RUN YOUR SUGGESTION BY MULTIPLE PEOPLE, LOOK FOR SPECIFIC VALUES/NUMBERS THAT MAY HELP THE DEV TEAM. You know how hard it is to take someones suggestion going "ADD THIS" then having to test it, then having to balance it to make sure the server doesnt shit itself. If you actually calculate and work out possibly values to your suggestion. Or possibly bugs to your map. It makes it so much easier to develop or work on.-

Your SOBDE and your Bad Batch echo is basically like tech within episodes besides being able to plug in
New member doesnt help much its just killing the 501stTbh I agree a littlewith woeny, except not fully. I think Echo should be added to BB in a sort of way, just not fully. More like how Named knights are like between them and their battalions. IE 501st and ahsoka. 501st Helps come up withe the trials (From what I remember) for ahsoka and Ahsoka basically swaps between hanging out with Jedi and 501st.

The Loss of a Great, Korm.
in Introductions & Farewells
Posted
I don't even know how to take this, I don't play the server much anymore. Anytime I did korms face was still on the server. I remember I didn't like him when cipher brought him in b/c I thought he got favortized in, however he was one of the only legit people to pass during ciphers term. It took me a while to realize that, and I regret that. Dude was a chill dude to always talk to, if you ever felt down he would just help ease the air by being there. He actively made sure everyone was having a good day in my opinion. Honestly synergy won't be the same for me when I pop in and out anymore, Korms impact on the server was massive.
Korn you will be missed o7, the memories you created with everyone will be remembered for a long time even if this is just gmod, thats just the effect Korm's personality had.
