Stockings Siege Regimental Reapplication

[Stockings]

Steam name: Boo Radley

 

RP Name: Stockings

 

Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:49827084

 

Regiment you are applying for: Siege

 

How many terms have you held the position?: One

 

How do you feel your previous term went?:

I think that my previous term was a mixed bag, but in a good way.  I perhaps may be the only Regimental Commander to be moved to a Regiment where neither of the original battalions I was regimental for, are a part of.  I went from focusing on issues pertaining to the Recon Regiment (41st & Rancor) to the Siege Regiment (104th, 21st, & Doom’s Unit).  This change was only partially expected and I only had about a month of time to really do anything with the folks in Recon. I was put into a regiment where I’ve had zero introduction and about zero interaction with the battalions in there. Of course, this took time for me to bond with them and build a relationship of sorts.    Not only with each battalion's High Command, but the battalions as a whole.  I was also tasked with learning how each battalion was run.  Coming into Siege and finally getting to know them, I was about half way through my term (1.5 months in).  

 

Initially, things were good for some battalions & things were bad for some battalions. This being at the beginning of my term, 104th was in tip-top shape.  Putting numbers on the board regularly. Conducting great numbers for training and continuing to bolster their ranks overall.  21st was in a lull and needed some real work to get the spark going again.  Doom’s Unit was initially in an okay place, however their Officer Corps. was non-existent until maybe a week or so later. Throughout my term things would change immensely and I would be constantly shifting my focus along to make sure that each battalion was being set in a good direction, but keeping an autonomous stance for each one battalion and allowing the BCMD’s to handle what they need and I would be there to support them.

 

One of the things where I think I truly shined with the regiment was being an active participant in their discords.  It seemed like all the battalions were extremely appreciative of me communicating with them on a regular basis.  This kind of astounded me that the members of the battalions hadn’t had their previous Regimental Commanders talking to them. I also enjoyed being active in their respective battalion meetings.  I was glad to hear that DU would host a weekly battalion meeting and I often did my best to attend them, listening, talking, and providing them with the proper information necessary about where things might be moving in the Regiment. 

 

Why do you wish to remain a Regimental Commander?:

I’d like to remain the Siege Regimental Commander because I think I’ve still got things to do to try and improve these battalions.  I’ll be honest, a lot of them are in top shape when it comes to document work.  They really just need pushes for activity & having consistent presence on the server.  Another reason is that I do enjoy the work that goes into being a member of High Command and working with the people currently in it.  I genuinely think we make a great team.

 

I also put out a form for Siege battalion high command (104th, 21st, DU CMD+) & current High Command to review my performance as Siege Regimental.  On the form, I asked a few questions and received a 9.14 on average for my overall performance(1-10).  I received a 7.4 on average for my overall activity (1-10).  I had zero complaints put forth regarding myself, and the only issue in the regiment that was stated was that 104th & 21st needed some help.  I went forth and helped them to be in better places than they were at the time, when I put out this form. 

 

Current Availability: It will remain the same as a full time job takes up the majority of my life.

Monday through Thursday- 5PM EST- 8~8:30PM EST

Friday- 5PM EST- ~Midnight/1AM EST

Saturday- All day starting at probably 9 AM EST

Sunday- 9AM EST - 8PM EST

 

What have you achieved within your regiment during your past term?:  

One of the biggest things that occurred during my term was the transition into Siege.  With this came a new mission that was put forward.  That was to create a singular roster for vehicle trainings and some others like Alien translation & Negotiations Training thrown in.  With the help of 104th Intel and Jovanovic we were able to get this up and running quickly.  This change did not require any sort of wipe to any of the training rosters either.  Therefore allowing anyone currently trained to still hold that training. This accomplishment successfully allowed troopers on the server to immediately identify with their Steam ID which vehicle trainings they have completed. 

 

Although some might not really consider this an achievement I think it’s rightfully one, and I’m glad to have done it.  With my start being the Regimental for different battalions, I think it was an achievement in my own right going and learning about the current siege battalions, going and introducing myself to the battalions and making a lot of new friends in them. Trying to understand how they do things, which was very different to everything I’ve done before in 41st & Rancor. This accomplishment was one that fulfilled my own introverted personality allowing me to become a useful and reliable leader for each Siege Regiment Battalion. 

 

What improvements or changes do you plan on making within your regiment?: 

If there’s one thing I want to do my best to improve in the regiment is consistent activity and building a presence on the server. One of the issues I see with the regiment still occurring, but far less than before, is the lack of activity during peak server hours.  I hope to try and emphasize training, simulations, & building better RP.  Making sure that the many trainings that Siege have control of are happening on a basis to keep the server population properly trained. However, I would like to keep my primary focus on sustainability in the battalions.

 

For all of the battalions in Siege, their current BCMD’s are veterans of the server and know how things fly. I hope to continue to advise them on the decisions they choose to make and maintain a healthy relationship with them, continuing to allow them a proper space for which they can autonomously run their battalion.  

 

An on-going issue you may find in the Siege Regiment, and perhaps the server itself, is that members of the battalions may only hop on the server itself when their Battalion Commanders are on.  Something I hope to try and do is to work towards having something available for troopers to do, whether it’s a sim, patrol, training, or just standard RP. I think there’s truly no easy solution to this, other than providing more entertainment on the server for people to enjoy, something I hope to be able to do more of if I do obtain a second term. 

 

Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: Yes

As BCMD Doom I can confidently say Stockings has been the best RCMD I've worked with in all my time on Synergy. His involvement is superb and our regiment is improved by having him lead it. +1

[Turtle]

+1 Love this guy!

[Noodles]

+1 even tho I am not in Seige. Easily a great RCMD love any interaction I have in game with you. Plus without a reg in SPEC I have looked as you as a RCMD for CG.

Everything I said in this pervious post is was absolutely right. If there was anyone who would have had an excuse for bad performance it would have been Stockings due to the regiment changes but he not only did an excellent job with Recon for the short tenure he had in that position but proceeded to do an even better job with Siege. I have seen the battalions work together, communicate and overall just work well. 

I think that's a real testament to his work ethic and ability to be able to take a system that stacked the odds against him and still manage to get an A+ by all metrics. 
Good work my friend have fun with your second term.

Marshal Commander Stockings one day??! 👀

+1

[Slak]

A very interactive HC member. Always active with all battalion within the Siege Regiment. Able to always be open with him and a very good term in my opinion. Good luck +1.

[BigZach]

some of your takes on media I am passionate about are awful, I am unsure if they're ironic or not. It's almost enough to make me -1 no matter how well you've done. And I heard you bought an NFT and I'm not sure if it was a serious statement. However despite these incredible red flags I will be +1ing 

+1

[Axar]

+1 Siege supports you therefore I support you

[Bacta]

+1

Talking to stockigns is the honest to god one of the best people to talk to in synergy its so fucking weird, talking to him professionally or just in regular is the best thing ever,  his 3 regiments are in a extremly stable position it would be foolish not to give to him

[Spieler]

+1 From a perspective outside of HC, it seems your last term went very well.

This guy has been nothing but professional, kind, responsible, and mature. Great for the position and Siege seems to be doing well!

[Dennis]

[justuscloud5]
