  1. That's only part of it, the reason why they were punished is because they were High Staff. It's less about the Joke aspect, and more so about what the role of someone who's High Staff is, an Example of people following the rules while enforcing those very rules. They're not banned, and it's not personal, it's just a perk of the Position. High Staff have to be that guy, even if it's at the cost of being one of the guys sometimes. It's not for everyone, it's not for everyone forever, but, it's important to the structure of staff. As for people in general, some people prioritize immersion more than others, this server has rules that prioritize them. To give an example, I play an Astromech a lot, which by Proxy means I don't use my Mic while on the Job. It'd be a lot easier to, but, it'd be jarring for enough people, and to people without the context. That being said, the other day I laughed my ass off at a Gonk Vaccum droid Mic Spamming. Context is Important, but, because the people involved held high positions, and by proxy had high standards to them, they got handled accordingly. And, as Transparent as this post is, there's only so much transparency possible. For all we know, they've been warned multiple times, or they're just extremely strict with their inhouse.
  2. Well, Respect to you guys for being Transparent over this. Heard some Rumors about Removals, rather than suspension.
  3. 9/10 From a Short Encounter, to practically an event. Fantastic work, Great Rp, and wonderful utilizing the Situations at hand. Thank you for hosting the event!

    Cad Bane's bounty

    8/10 Enjoyed playing Interrogator, Cad Bane went down fast as hell though. It felt a little short. Personally, I would've had the Trandos attack, and then have Cad Bane Attack Tython after a bigger battle, but that's me. Thank you for hosting, it was fun!
  5. Hey there, personally, I proposed adding Rancor to Specalized way back when, however, removing Recon and shoving 41st and Rancor into the Attack Reg, doesn't make sense, nor does it embrace what 41st or Rancor do. Regiments create a main directive, embrace the primary function of Battalions within, and factor into the Training those Battalions have. Both Rancor, and 41st can do Recon, they'e supposed to be trained in how to do it, but it's not all they do. While Recon is the Main Directive for Rancor, and 41st, they Secondary Directive is ARC and ARF Respectively, Leadership and Translation/Civvie duties. Under Merril as BCMDR, We trained in being able to fill any role needed, because we trained hard and wanted to be able to provide Leadership, whether behind Enemy Lines, on the Front Lines, or way behind. While it's not common to see 104th not handle the Diplomacy, 41st have always been known to handle Situations with Civvies, particularly less advanced ones, with a different but effective touch. I've seen Comics in Action, he's a fantastic RegComm, but as someone who's spent a long ass time doing Frontline with 212th, Expecting 212th Training to work with Rancor or 41st Training, is looking to disappoint. That being said, Adding Rancor to SOBDE, Isn't a good idea, and hasn't been a good one since I suggested it to an Old Recon Commander. A Big part of Rancor, is the Standard they hold to themselves, Leadership is a vital part of Rancor because without good and sturdy Leadership, Rancor falls on it's Ass. Rancor is not, and should not be an in your face Battalion, they work well on their own, and by proxy of ARC, are Self Reliant. When the Standards for Rancor are high, the Results are High, however SOBDE Functions on having The Highest standard. If you want to be SOBDE, you need to be SOBDE Capable. If SOBDE is not the Highest Standard, SOBDE loses a lot of it's charm. Even though I think Rancor can meet the SOBDE Standard in some ways, it just doesn't work like that with SOBDE. Having Recon is important, because it's a Detachment separate from the Main Force, something absolutely VItal to not just chuck everyone at the Opposition and have SOBDE cover their asses. As much as I love ATK, ATK Regiments start to get a lot less enjoyable, and functional when you add in Battalions that aren't ATK.
  6. +1 Enjoyed the Event, Wished Kenobi had showed but, Maul made it worth it.
  7. We switched to the Custom Titan Map, I left around the time they Censored the Aayla Bob, What have I missed?
  8. I feel like this could actually be given some thought in RP, to give an example A Trando would be able to Spot a Cloaker, While those that aren't would likely have the know how that Doors don't open by themselves. That, or we could say that certain Jobs have Armor that can spot them. It is something that likely should be Clarified, and SOBDE Should be involved with that. From the start of BH Launch, SOBDE and Bounty Hunters have been at odds, even if it's mostly IC, and letting SOBDE weigh in on a Circumstance that is kind of their thing, allows for some Bridge Building between us.
  9. I remember the Days of Yore, when I played the role of a Rocket Trooper alongside Rancor. While I had been a Jet Trooper in the past, Particularly a Medic, the feeling of having a Rocket and a Jetpack, was truly amazing. However, these feeling was quickly cut short by the Limited Ammo, and, the at the time Laggy Server Box making Flying at Peak Extremely impractical. With the Server being less and less Laggy with each update, adding the Ability to Purchase Rocket Ammo, rather than Glitch Rocket Ammo, is something that's a long time coming. I feel like this is something that's been Left unattended, and with the Recent Changes and Love given to different Aspects of the Server, Ranging from Clones, to Jedi, to Bounty Hunters, Rocket Troopers are deserving of a Buff and I think this, as well as the Potential for a New Jetpack, is a good way to go about that. +1
  10. 9/10 Unlike the Event Earlier, Which while good, lacked an Oomph, this Event Clearly Scratched it. While the Warp System has it's Perks, it takes away from a Sense of Stress and attack, something that'll no doubt take time for GM's to learn to balance and Master. Often, I feel like Server's have Constant Attacks, but none ever feel like an attack, this, felt like the opposite. Personally, I played my BH Dubz Cal, who assisted the Republic and their Felucia [Spellcheck] Base via his Defense Contract. While I intially went to help in MHB, and defend the base from a more Ranged Perspective, upon learning that ER was currently Pinned, I went to assist the ENG Team defending the ER, which Initially Included Wren, Dreag, and Havoc. The Initial Wave of Droids, while Difficult, were quickly handled with a Cheeky Tact and Killzone Tactics, however, once we Received Reinforcements via a Shit ton of 41st, Two DU, and a 212th Trooper, things quickly hit hard and fast. Despite my time on SWRP, and despite the many Events I've experienced, this was easily one of the most Stressful Attacks on ER I've seen, despite my Long tenure as an Engineer. Despite having Two DU, we had on the Door, and Four People behind the Desk, we were constantly under attack. Often, during Events, I'll be far more Mobile, I'll experience a lot, this is the first one in a long time I've Experienced staying as Rooted as I did. Spawning, was amazing, the Lag was Tolerable, and overall, while the Plot was Simple, it ended with Thoughts of what's to Come on the Horizion, as well as being an Example of a Good Immersive Base Attack. Thank you for Hosting.
  11. 8/10 Personally, I played the Part of a Foul Mouthed Bounty Hunter who Stumbled upon Illum Forces Early, and ended up Helping the GAR Handle the Clanker Problem. I enjoyed the Event, even though I stumbled upon it, I wasn't treated with any Malice or Ill Intent. The Event had a Simple Premise, but, it felt Believable for the Context and wasn't hard to Immerse myself. The Addition of the AT-TE Made it a lot Easier, which took away from the Enjoyment initially but was quickly Amended by the sheer amount of Love most of us seemed to share over the Tank itself. Towards Mustafar, things started to get more Difficult, the Rocky Terrain Proving to be the downfall of a lot of troops, as well as the General Environment. As someone who hasn't been able to play often, I last played when the Map Switched, and it's already getting used well in regards to Spawning. The only Map I didn't really enjoy, was Dago bah, due to it's Low Visibility and Foliage. As annoying as it was, It was surprisingly accurate, which only adds to how good this Event. Overall, despite the Simple Concept, the Event was Enjoyable and a Good Fun Wake up. I didn't patake in the Debrief, due to me being a BH, but the Banter made up for it, both in Comms, or through Local. Shoutout to @Conradius [Hope I got the right one], A SGT within the 501st. This LEGEND Kept me from Dying, and kept the entire Force Alive during the Mission, and without him, we would've failed. If he didn't get Promoted, he has been given a Disservice by the Republic. Thanks for the Heals, Healing Man. - Dubz Cal
  12. The only times I've attended DB as a BH, were extremely Circumstance based. One, with a now Former Cabinet Member, where we did a Group Middle Finger Salute, then walked out. The other, only happened because Warp hadn't been setup yet, and I didn't want to Stand around with my hands in my Pockets, because that would just attract more questions and suspicion. I can see an Argument for a Cabnient Member, but even then, it adds more problems, questions, and concerns than need be. Generally, BH's aren't allowed in DB, and when they are in DB it's because of something Circumstance Based or because Naval and CG just don't want to deal with it yet. Like many things with the Republic, DB is a Formality, just like a PTS. As someone who plays a BH, rather than Trooper, I can understand where you're coming from, however as someone who's played BH since Launch, off and on of course, It's completely understandable why we're rarely tolerated in DB, and why Giving us a PTS is as good of an Idea as bringing back the Light saber Rifle. I can't speak for Naval, but my Understanding as to why Enlisted aren't given a PTS during DB, is because you can't predict or expect an Enlisted to not say or do something that would cause issues and problems, while a WO+ is easily trusted to. Part of the Reason why I play a BH, rather than a Trooper, is because I don't like the Limitations of a Trooper, and I'm really tired of those very Limitations. Bounty Hunter's aren't Clones, we're Diverse, and even giving just High Ranking Bounty Hunter's a PTS, is bound to cause Issues. There was however, a Suggestion that we have our OWN Db, and I think that's an amazing Idea and a good use for the Bar, but that's Discussion for another Post. I understand that you want to be Heard, but like with many things, there is a time and place for it, DB is not the place for us at all and understandably so. In a lot of ways, BH allows for more Freedom, and Customization, but this comes with Heavy Prices and Restrictions as a Result. -1
  13. Currently, I'm on the fence about this one, partly because it wasn't easy for me to get a clear understanding of why you should be appealed, on also because the Evidence you posted is just that the Person that banned you, isn't staff anymore. Looking through the different Responses, you don't seem to have much Care or Regret for past offenses, and instead of taking Criticism with an Open hand and mind you keep trying to Combat it and prove it wrong. You don't have any Evidence to show that you've changed, or that you will change given the past offenses. Despite this, I hope you have changed, and the ultimate reasoning for me adding to this Thread is to suggest that if your ban is lifted that you're put on Watch. The Situations over your Past Bans are Muddled at best, and with how Foreseen put it, it's likely that you wouldn't have had such a Serious Punishment based on the Offense. Given the Circumstances, I think the timing of this Ban made it Unlucky, and unjust, however I think it would be best that you had Evidence you've changed. +1
  14. Remember when you memed on Sixta, saying "I'd never join Bad Batch" only to get Crosshair, become out Outreach, and by the time I get back, get Bad Batch Lead! 07 Mad Respect to you man
  15. Mav, the Old Bastard from 21st, him, or Merill
  16. O7 Absolute Mad man I remember when you used to Shoot the shit alongside Merill when we Prepped ARC Trainings way back when, or at least it feels like that. A lot has happened, and I can completely understand where you're coming from, having been burnt out on Servers before, but I really hope this doesn't make you a Stranger. You're just a Fun Person to hang out with, and I think a lot of people here, myself included are proud of you for making it as far as you did, but despite that, I think most if not all of us want the very best for you. You made a lot of Friends on Synergy, and it's people like you that make Communities,a Community. We all have our Limits though. I wish you the best, Naval Man.
  17. 3/4 It was quick, Straightforward and Suprisingly issue free. There were moments where I was slightly confused as to where I needed to be, However that was a cause of Map, and an issue with Comms that promptly got fixed. It didn't stand out in Particular, which is why I'm not going as Indepth per my Usual Norm, but I think it's impressive that this was a Solo Host. Decent Event, but, by no means perfect hence the Rating. Some Suggestions to Improve further on this Concept would be -Increase the Combat Time -- Most Conflict felt like a Breeze, and the Moments that didn't end quickly felt Abrupt like the Sith fight. - Make the Sith clearly a Sith -- Part of the Initial Confusion, was the Saber Color of Pike, Combined with the Sudden Appearance of a Sith behind the Main Line. --- My Understanding is that Darth Pike is a Recurring character, so, Apologies if this is just a Plot Matter I didn't pick up on. Thanks for hosting the Deployment, it's Really Appreicated!

    Ban Appeal

    Funny Story I couldn't find you through any Docs via your Steam ID, Which, after finding your Profile via your Steam ID, looked extremely strange given you were both, a MedL/O and a TG, that was, until I found out your Jedi name was your Trooper name, and, found you in the Depths of the Jedi Docs, which made a Halfhour of digging myself into a Rabbit Hole pointless! You strike me as a Straightforward Guy, that made one Mistake that, has a Blanket Rule Enforcement. I can Empthaize with you in Regards to the lack of ability to Fund a Small Island's worth of Hilt's, Crystals and Assorted Donation Items, as well as learning better than your Younger self. Personally, It's a +1 from me, but I think it would be best if you at least linked your Old Account, given that Staff don't take kindly to Alt Accounts. Clean Accounts or Fun, but, not allowed, and very Contridictary to your overall attitude towards your Appeal, and the Intial Redflag that made me Skeptical and opt to dig further. Also, @Sanchez if you have something to add, please do. I think it's a bit weird that not only do you have zero screenshots prior to 2019, a Permaban to another Communtiy a Couple Months prior to getting banned here, as well as another one a couple months before that, but, it's not like every Screenshot is Public, or that Steam isn't more Autistic than I am in regards to features like that. As of right now, you've got a +1 from me, although while that's still unsorted, it's a bit on the Fence for me. Either way, best of luck to you.

    Tryouts?

    Don't worry It was a Typo, it happens It was just, a REALLY Funnyt ypo
  20. SR, has by Far, the best CG I've seen on any Server. We need to have Incentives to CG, and their Dedication needs to stop going unnoticed. I wish I had more energy to put into this one, but Upper Staff should Speak to CG, about catching up on where they've been Left out on
