If you would like a suggestion to be implemented into the server, you MUST follow this template! Any suggestions that do not follow this template will be denied instantly.
If you are submitting a suggestion that relates to a specific Battalion you must get the approval of said Battalion. Failure to do so will result in an automatic denial. A list of Battalions that require approval and the ranking that may give it is in the Rules & Regulations topic.

Suggestion: idek why i botger with these long suggestions cause no one reads them. but here goes. bring back the 187th. Heres how i see it. a lot of people like Star Wars Roleplay Cause they get to play as their favorite Battalion/Jedi Character. Well Whats wrong with having the 187th? i have put a forum discussion up before, and i didnt think a lot of it through. for example, the ammount of negative feedback i would get. well heres my second post. Its going to be the first of many quite honestly because my whole reason for SWRP was the 187th. Back to our main discussion. just because 187th doesnt have any lore, that doesnt mean that it should be rejected. In my opinion almost no lore gives us (the players) more freedom to make our own stories, our own lore. And i understand a lot of people are hardheaded and like things a certain way and nothing can change them or their opinion. This is true, you cannot change someones opinion. As i said, this is my second post, and once again i will be posting a document put together by all my close 187th friends. You guys are probably wondering why i keep insisting on the 187th coming back, i mean Lets be honest, its a toybox battalion (not my opinion but ya know). As i said before the 187th was the whole reason why i really got into SWRP. I was drawn to their battalion because they werent like the other battalions, they were kind of like the odd balls. I could actually relate to this, i was going through a tough time in high school, and this battalion really felt my pain, and helped me through a lot of things. And in the end, it was all worth it. People are also probably thinking: "oh shit another nostalgic 187th? jesus just let it die!" no this isnt about nostalgia, this is me trying to give the 187th a chance. The reason we were removed last time (in my opinion) is because of a few things.
1. We were set up for failure. joah wanted to get rid of us for a while to make room for the server. he said " it was a waste of time and energy, and nobody even likes the 187th anymore." And after reaper (our last BCMD) resigned, everything went to shit. there was a HUGE lack of cooperation from everyone, people were constantly fighting over the BCMD position.
2. Reaper. Im not saying reaper is a bad person, or anything like that. He just was a bad leader. Dont get me wrong he kept it afloat as long as he could, but he wanted to do everything his way, and he never listened to his subordinates. Which was why we were losing Popularity, and why other high officers left.
3. Activity. After the icefuse purge and everyone from the origional 187th crew transferred, we started to die out. People were getting older, and they had other responsibilities. Even myself as well was fading out, i will admit.
4. MINGING: OMG This was a HUGE problem. People were mass recruiting without checking to see if they were minges or not. This also contributed to our Demise.
Now i can see why everyone hates the 187th. No one likes it anymore, no lore, its known for minging. While all of that is true, that was the old 187th. the old 187th was flawed, and the system transfered to synergy. But if we do bring back the 187th, let me assure you, i will use every fiber in my being to make sure those mistakes NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.
i was A 187th XO from this community back on icefuse, i was BCMD for a short while as well. And i have experience with other battalions (41st, GM, 501st, 327th, 104th, 91st) every one of them i have officer experience, so i know how different battalions work and certain battalions like things different from other battalions. Like I said, this isnt about Nostalgia, or anything like that. I just Have the fire to RP again, and the whole reason i started RP was the 187th. And if you dont think im committed, there is a document attatched that has opinions from other 187th members. Although most have moved on, i havent just yet.
heres why i think the 187th should come back.
1. It would be a Big win for Synergy. If you take a look at the other CWRP servers (at least the bigger ones) After Synergy removed 187th, so did Icefuse and Superior (although they brought it back and they are crap over there) we would have a one up on other servers in a little variety.
2. um VARIETY?? DUH? What i mean by this, is all the big Servers OF swrp follow the same boring format: The generic attack and defense battalions, some specialized, RC and jedi. Some put RC with Specialized, some keep it seperate. Some even have Null. but its all the same. I think if synergy wants to get bigger, it needs to get out of that comfort zone and explore more unique battalions, not just the 187th (although this is what we are talking about)
3. People like servers with unique things that arent like the other servers. What i mean is that although most SWRP servers are very Similar, they have very different features. For example. Superior is the only Standing Phase one SWRP server left that is popular. all the others are trying to compete with each other for popularity in Phase II servers.
Anyways, i could go on and on for how i think the 187th should come back, but ultimatly its not up to me, its up to the devs. So heres the document i mentioned earlier. Thank you all and God bless.
