Keep the battalions under the name but just change the sector army. Other then crimson really being the 10th sector and shadow hand being the 5th no complaints...makes sense just having a 1,2,3 and not a 3,5,10 lol Edited July 20, 2022 by cfra24 Link to comment

Dono Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 Just a random thought I had. Why are we limited to only having 3 regiments to organize everything under? Could a fourth regiment help to organize the battalions better according to what they each specialize / focus in ? Also, with this change up of battalions it seems more like you guys are just mixing everything together now, completely throwing out the concept of certain battalions existing to fulfill a specific mission. You have now mixed 1 siege, 1 attack and 1 spec battalion together for the 3 section armies. Does this mean you no longer want battalions to think they have a specific focus? Or is this intended to organize the 9 battalions into 3 army groups? I'm just worried you guys want to push the battalionization agenda and essentially make every battalion the same just with different looking armor. I think it would be cool to see how this goes if the plan is to organize these sections into 3 separate armies, where the battalions within complement what the other lack. 4 Report Link to comment

Could a fourth regiment help to organize the battalions better according to what they each specialize / focus in ? While I don’t want to speak for CWRP High Command on the why these battalions were chose for these regiments I can touch on this point here regarding the 3/3/3. So right now the RCMD job has 3 slots, this current plan they are working with is revolving around that if any sort of fourth regiment were to be looked at it wouldn’t be a option they could just make and decide. A forth regiment requires the server directors signing off on the creation of a new RCMD job and then to pass server suggestions for a job slot increase before it could be looked at for implementation. So hopefully that outlines why they are sticking to the 3/3/3 for now but if the community thinks 2/2/2/2 would honestly be better that’s a conversation to bring up to your high command members and a whole different can of worms to tackle. 1 Report Link to comment

Could we just go back to the way they were? Why the change in the first place? Nothing was wrong, everyone seemed happy with their regiment, why change it? I especially don't like that now we are forced into new regiments with different battalions, after we've all worked really hard to get close bonds with our siege-mates. 104th, GM, CG and DU were tight. We all knew eachother, and (at least from my perspective) we were all super excited to get to work with Slak. I agree entirely with Comics, this is a large change that only had feedback after the change. We heard some rumors, but that was it. 1 1 2 Report Current: Navy RDC SCPO Greg Former: GM DD MEDL MAJ | Jedi Chief Instructor, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Jocatsa Nu, Barris offee | Jar Jar Binks Link to comment

Void Posted July 20, 2022 Report Share Posted July 20, 2022 (edited) While I am not too thrilled about the new changes to the regiment system, I can understand why this has been done and I am more than happy to adapt to the changes that have been implemented. While at first I was sceptical at the idea of working along-side a new set of battalions, this may present the opportunity to expand on the ideas of how each battalions operates and the possibility to form a strong attachment between each other and incorporate some of the fundamental values that each battalion offers into Rancor itself. The reality is if the system does not work, then community feedback will provide the necessary foundation for change into a positive direction. I will attempt to work closely with both @SEXICOand @Mercywith guidance from @Noodlesto the best of my abilities. At first I was annoyed, but admittedly I am rather excited to see how this change will impact the community and my battalion. The expression "Don't knock it until you try it" seems to fit this situation well. I believe Noodles. who will oversee the 41st Elite Corps, Coruscant Guard and Rancor, will be able to generate a brotherly bond between each battalion and assist the battalions to generate the necessary growth they desperately need.

The rest was kept private from what I can recall. As you can tell the mixed reception this clearly wasn't a community wide choice. The original names (I'm assuming you're referring to Attack, Siege, Spec, please correct me if I'm wrong) are really restrictive in how battalions were able to be matched together, and when this was first talked about in High Command, the Regimental Deployments were still locked in place. There have been a lot of complaints and issues over the years about how battalions are matched together, both in lore (CG does not Siege, why are they in the Siege REG?) and in practice (Why would DU and GM deploy together when they have such different skillsets?). This change was intended to fix the former issue, allowing battalions to not feel like they don't belong in a regiment, and also allowing RCMDs to have a better understanding of the battalions as a whole, all while allowing the overall process to stay somewhat the same. As for the 'secrecy', I'm not sure why you think anything was secret. This has been talked about in HC for more than a month, there was a High Command meeting about this, every Battalion Command team was approached multiple times about these changes, and no one was ever told to not tell anyone. I've been pretty open about the changes, and while I can't say if anyone else talked about it, it was never considered 'Don't tell the community' as far as we were concerned. We didn't go out of our way to ask every person in the community, because this change ultimately doesn't affect most of the community, it really only affects the upper part of a battalions' command structure, and High Command itself. Which regiment you're in doesn't really change how you play the game on a day to day basis, especially with the deployment change that was put into place. You're free to interact with anyone, same as before, and you can join train or deploy with anyone, same as before. |Longest Serving Attack Regimental Commander||Thigh High Connoisseur| Link to comment

Elect a new representative. ie. Don't +1 the person when they apply next. My big problem with this is that there have been several applications that have been bombed with -1s (Dennis's Bacara Application) and still got to interview. Also, after the "vote", they go to interview, where regardless of the "votes", they are accepted or denied by a small group of individuals. These individuals are people we either did not vote in, such as Head Admins or Directors, or people who were inducted by this application - interview process. It is not a vote, especially since even AFTER we put in a measly +1 or -1 for the interview, the decision isn't up to us. These aren't elections, they are selections.

This is where High Command and High Staff may use their better judgement, if there's a fairly even spread of +1 and -1 (yes that includes if it is overall more negative by a few votes) on whether or not these people are worthy of an interview. This is where votes get looked at as do you just dislike someone or is there a reason for this. This is where leaving a comment with context helps.

I'm not saying we should do this. I'm simply stating that they still have a vote, making it less of an election. 9 minutes ago, Forseen said: In terms of this; This is where High Command and High Staff may use their better judgement, if there's a fairly even spread of +1 and -1 (yes that includes if it is overall more negative by a few votes) on whether or not these people are worthy of an interview.

You are not helping your case with this, you're saying that despite out vote they can choose to still give someone an interview, entirely taking it out of community hands. 9 minutes ago, Forseen said: But overall, You say you have a big problem, but I don't see a suggestion posted by you with a solution to fix the so-called issue? My big problem is with what you're saying. You're calling it a "house of representatives", saying next time we should "elect" different individuals to lead. It is not an election, especially since after the application, we have 0 say, and according to you, the High Command and High Staff can "use their better judgement" (go against our "votes"). If it were a house of representatives, the house wouldn't get to pick and choose who they interview based on their "better judgement" in close calls, and they wouldn't have the power to decide solely whether or not to let them in. It is hard to get further from an actual election. I guess solutions would be make it more like an actual house of representatives or election? Or don't compare it to one.

You as a citizen don't get a say on every decision. You elect people that the general populous feels would best represent them and allow that person to make the decisions and changes or arguments against changes as they see fit as you elected them. Famously all the people in HC were running on a public platform of making these changes! And that's what we all asked to make happen when we voted for them! You're comparing a community of like at most 200 people to a country of 300 million. Big stupid choices like this can be handed directly to the community because its not that big. The USA cannot referendum small issues we as a community can lol. No one is gonna vote against a good HC because they have the unannounced potential to name a really awful make change. This isn't a good excuse to ignore the community lol. Edited July 22, 2022 by Comics 2 1 Report The most fuckable person on Synergy Star Wars RP~ Link to comment

Yeah I just find it weird how forseen was calling it a House of Representatives when in the real world we know what our representatives are voting for and who voted for what. But we get none of that here it’s just a continued lack of communication and it just goes back high staff/command thinking we don’t know what we want so they see no point in having anyone except for them involved Link to comment
