Turf Fishs BCMD Cody Application


Recommended Posts

Steam Name: Afternoon

RP Name: 212th HVY SSG Turf Fish

RP Rank: SSG

Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:55466905

Battalion you are applying for: 212th Attack Reg

Experience: Former Sargeant Major for the 212th (Another Sever, a while ago now), And Former Minge.

Why should you become a Battalion Commander?:
I for a long time doubted myself and my capabilities to take seriously any sort of position in any regiment, and as a whole take Star WarsRP seriously, but as I spent more and more time on this server, getting to know the Ins and outs of how Synergy operates, I also got a real feel and sense of community and belonging here. Despite all my previous behaviours, warns, kicks, bans, I've since chosen to take up the righteous path and work on reforming myself.  I found myself wanting to keep coming back and work on my behaviours. From being a rude, mingey, good for nothing CT, I've managed to genuinely fight for my right to take part on this server and mean something to our fellow troopers and staff-alike.

Everyone doubted me at first, becoming a private in 212th, then PFC, and then Specialist, at each hurdle, I got comments like...

"How long is this gonna last Turf?"
"How the f**k did you get into a regiment, Turf?"
"Turf actually telling people he's gonna be good and improve? Ha, yeah right!"


I ignored them, I understood why such comments were made, be it in jest, or as a serious jab to me. I understood where they were coming from, without a doubt.

BUT!

I, Turf Fish, ignored them, because I knew finally I found somewhere I belong, somewhere I can actually apply myself and do good, for my battalion, for my battalions image, and for myself!

People started to catch wind of my "Reformity" from what I once was, people saw me hit Sargeant, and finally people started to recognise and appreciate the fact that  I'm actually here and working on being better. And this only came around due to the immense love shown to me by the 212th. Without PJ and Warmaster, and of course may others, I wouldnt be here applying on this forum, nevermind on the server for Cody.

What I mean to say is, I regret the past, but we all have them. I'm here now, trying my best for Synergy, for the 212th, and for myself... But finally, to answer the question...!

I think I should become Battalion Commander for the 212th as I want to serve as an image for fellow troopers that, whatever decisions you decide to make, be it good, bad, ugly, etc... You can always offer yourself up and be better for the people that care. I really want to serve as BCMD, grabbing the Bull by its horns and start to steer 212th into a much more vibrant, lively and exciting regiment to join and be a part of!
It's my passion to offer my leadership skills and time to improve the 212th. I think it's crucial, if I was to get BCMD, to really focus on the feedback given from both inside of 212th, and out. A big part of me taking on this role, and why I'd be a good fit is that I am determined to overcome any hurdle put infront of me. Not only this, but I am very interested in strengthening bonds between fellow 212th members and other regiments, as I feel there is a slight disconnect which is stopping us from all reaching and recognising eachothers potential, both in training, OOCly, or in events.

Right now, 212th is hurting without a Battalion Commander at the helm, leading them and being a rolemodel. I think that again, because there is nobody at the top, there is a real disconnect when it comes to working on feedback and decision making. BCMD serves as a figure head, someone to look up to and listen to, I know I could be that person, that Cody, for all of 212th.

I'd make an excellent fit for Cody, I have the drive, love, will and passion for it. I'll ensure our regiment grows, both in numbers, and in strength. I've also got the added benefit of one hell of a redemption story, I feel as if I've really captured the hearts and minds of the people of Synergy, and I plan to use that also to my advantage. I'll be reaching out, asking for advice, and I can say confidently, due to my nature, character and history here, I will not be allowed to fail. My mere presence in the 212th and now current rank and intentions have really garnered more eyes on us, and I'd love to show everyone just what I could do.


 

Availability:
Most days past: 1700 hours GMT:(00:00)
I work bartending hours, and occasionally I get placed on nights, but due to the time difference, this actually serves to mine and your benefit, as I will always gaurantee to be on high pop times!

Estimate of how long you've played on Synergy Roleplay?:
On and off now for 2-3 months. Day or two total hours.

Do you have a microphone?:
Yes, Blue Yeti :D

Where do you want your battalion to be at the end of your term?:
I'd have my battalion at the end of my term, be able to confidently say their voices and respected, heard and valued. Not only this, but I want my battalion to grow in character, people in lead positions fill up Ghost Company, 2ndAC and medical roles and specialist units alike. I will work tirelessly to ensure that we pull together as a battalion and push that brotherly love clones are known for.
At the end of my term, I would have hopefully boosted peoples morale and perspective on themselves, recognising and appreciating peoples potential and employing that for the betterment of the battalion.
I really want to prove to everyone, both in the 212th, and the server, that we arent just a random assortment of people cobbled together, being just another number, logging off after each event just for merit points. I will push for togetherness, respect and dignity inside of the 212th. I will be the Judge and Jury for the 212th, a voice for each member and a brother to look up to.

I also want to really push for prestigious awards such as Battalion of the Month, and seeing members of the 212th getting RPer of the week! At the end of my term, I am confident I will have scored these for our battalion, sinking a few more awards for the regiment, gaining us more respect, eyes on the regiment and bragging rights! Don't forget the bragging rights! Friendly rivalry (to a certain degree) is healthy!

Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?:
I understand this.

Do you understand that your position has a three month term limit and you must reapply after three months to maintain your commander rank?:
Copy that, understood.



Thank you reader, for your time, patience and willing.

Turf Fish youre an awesome dude and I do believe people can change and I truly am surprised you got this far. I believe if you keep working hard you might legitimately be a great candidate. Turf Fish Like I said you are cool but you gotta get the experience and trust of the People. Work hard and reattempt in the future. Don't let anyone tell you that its not possible or you do not belong work for it. I was LT when I went for BCMD it is possible but as an NCO its not likely. -1 For now

I don’t know still. If this is the greatest idea to show that you are changed. I am still befaffled that this is happening. The App looks good but me personally think that you need a little more experience on the more serious side of this server. I think you could be a good BCMD in the future but I don’t about right now. - 1

 

P.S. if you get all power to you and I think you might do good but I want to let you know where I stand

This is not promoting hate or disrespect in the slightest. I am officially changing my neutral to a minus one due to the nature of the application. None of the officers knew about this and you certainly had not spoken to the current high command which is a slap in their face. This has everything to do with the fact that you do not outline a good plan and from the former 212th BCMD, I have no confidence that you would be able to run this battalion with the experience, or lack thereof, that you posses. If you want to put in the work, that is perfect; that is what you should do. But as a SSG who was recruited EIGHT DAYS ago. This will not bode well, and this will further harm the battalion more than it would help it.

I appreciate all the feedback on both sides of things. It's incredible to read all of this and see how many people actually reached out. Be it good or bad, whatever the outcome of this application is, I take it all in stride! I believe in myself.

I wont stop believing in myself.  All of this means a tremendous amount to me. #OrangePride #TurfForBCMD

Turf I like you as a person. I remember when you joined the server and you've come a long way but you have 0 officer experience on Synergy and your plans for your term aren't very concrete.

 

It's hard for me to be convinced that you can actually handle the position. I would need you to layout detailed plans on how you will change/improve systems in your battalion (Sub units for example) and on how you plan on increasing 212th battalion relations/inter battalion RP opportunities before I can change my vote to a +1.

-You didn't talk to me or Warmaster about putting up an app.

-You have no officer or command experience.

-You have been in the battalion for 8 days.

-You have no idea of what the issues in the battalion are, and no plans to address them.

I don't know if someone told you to put an App up, or if you thought of it on your own, but whoever waived you did you a huge disservice. You aren't in a position where we can rely on your experience or character, and you don't understand the basics of leading a battalion. I'm shocked this got past the waive talk, and I'm disappointed in everyone who seriously +1'd this app.

This is nothing against you, and I hope to see you climb the ranks and prove you've changed. But this is FAR too early for you to be Cody.

I'm sorry but this is insane. you have no commanding experience or just being a 212th Officer in general. And you didn't communicate with anyone about what needs help/change throughout the battalion.

Turf I absolutely admire the effort and the story given here however I feel you getting waived has misled you here, Infact I feel this waive wasn't even done with care (8 days and ssg, how does a director waive this). Either way any app should be treated seriously, this app is alot of fluff, padded and isn't really getting down to the core problems that 212th is currently suffering with. For example the 212th feels from the inside and out divided and has lost a majority of its officers and there has been changes to subunits that need to he addressed. You do hit on these points but you only hit the surface of a far more complicated situation. A good app needs ideas but also the explanation of how you get to point a to point b. 

To summarise, you have a great story, you have the best intentions but your app is not up to standards that is needed at this time. I genuinely appreciate the effort here and I hope this doesn't stop you in the future, cause I believe in time you could become an excellent bcmd.

-1 Its a good effort, but like others have said, you don't have a very well thought out plan and you have only been in the battalion for a little bit of time compared to other people and you don't know anything of the officer core and didn't even ask the commander or Majors about posting this app.

Link to comment

-1 With all due respect, you seem to have a great story, but that story just started. And since you don't have literally any command, officer, or any kind of leadership experience I can not in good mind support your endeavour. This is also the first time I'm hearing of you, of many people in the battalion hearing of you. You can not just suddenly apply without the 212th Officer Corps support, other wise you'll get a very resentful, un-motiviated corps, which will trickle down to the lower ranks. You haven't told them your intention from what I gather and that's a major red flag. I'll stop where I'm at because others like Finn have already stated their reasons and I agree with them. 

My advice is for you to make officer, get promoted even to Commander (or at least Major) in your case since you do in fact have a lot to prove by the way, before coming back to apply. Learn the intricacies of command and the relationship between the Junior officers, Senior officers, and the Commanders themselves. Get adjusted with the culture, customs and standards of the battalion, as well as the issues its facing, then come back with a plan to handle those issues. This application of yours, at present, lacks of an actual plan; it's just all heart with no clear vision, which isn't anywhere near good enough for a future Battalion Commander. I'm sorry man, especially for you being deceived by the guy who waived you.

+1 Honestly I fuck with this heavy
Why should we just get another BCMD who is gonna do basically nothing besides change little things?
Turf Fish brings fresh ideas and real change. I want to see that rather than the next BCMD change quota requirements and do a couple sims.

What Turf Fish as BCMD would look and feel like is:
A leader who listens to feedback, using said feedback, divulges a plan on how to reform and working on improving each sub-regiment.
Propose radical change and be unafraid of taking risks and big leaps, fearlessly.
Read into the core problems that are leading the 212th away from recognising its true potential on the server.

If it really is the way, that I need everyones approval, then that ultimately defeats the point of my story and my intentions.
I didn't want to apply under false pretenses, leadership takes someone to dare standing up and be willing to put in the work to steer 212th in the direction it deserves.
Leadership takes someone with balls to stand up and believe in themselves and what they are fighting for. That's what I've done.

I wont sit here and lie to the people of Synergy, I am probably an unlikely candidate, but I am willing to learn, listen to peoples feedback and employ my skills in fixing problems and offering radical change within the battalion. I wont stop ever pushing for that, something I believe in. I'll put in the effort, I'll grow, I'll learn, Innevitably I'll make mistakes.

But you can tell alot about a person, how they react to adversity and strife. I believe in myself and I will continue work on things until I've given all I possibly could to Synergy and 212th.

I will offer Integrity, self-awareness, courage, respect, compassion and resilience. Thats what makes a leader. That's what would make me a good BCMD. A good Cody.

As someone who's been part of 212th since 2018, I find this the craziest and most frustrating thing I've ever seen.   Much more than the Technodad (context for you and another person:  Former Synergy Member who applied for Cody upon hearing that 91st was getting yoinked) application a couple of years back.    Whoever did your waiver does not need to be in the position they are in.    I'm ticked off with them more than anything else right now.   This application has done more harm than actually good with several people leaving out of frustration upon seeing this including @NexusRyan  who wanted to stay and help after his term.   I had serious thoughts about running for Cody myself and I'm well aware that I might not get that chance by voting on this.   

 

This whole application is nothing but padding.   You haven't even been with us that long and have no idea what problems we are facing at the moment.   You have been part of us for just a little over a week. This application clearly (as day) shows it.  You never came up to ANY form of leadership including subunits to ask any questions.   You talk about reforming and improving when you have zero fucking idea what led us to the shitshow I had to watch and watch as numerous friends left due to being unhappy.   Some of us have been working our asses off trying to pull ourselves out of this dumpster fire we landed in. 

 

I even sent a message as a kind gesture which you just ignored.  

 

The whole running thing was a surprise to even me which i found out due to someone saying something that I thought was a joke at one point.   Then you started running between main channels talking about the application the forums WHICH IS A BIG NO-NO.

 

I appreciate you wanting to do more but BE PART OF 212TH before running for anything.   I know you want to fix your image and be part of the community but this isn't the way of doing it.

8 days and ssg, how does a director waive this

I am not one to often reply to messages on peoples applications. But this here shows me that you do not have a understanding of how we conduct a waive talk. When someone wants to go for a position they contact a Director. In this case it was me. We schedule a time that is sutiable for both of us, then once the talk starts we sit down ask him questions regarding the 212th. I won't go to specific on the details of what we ask, but it's not simple stuff such as "You know what 5+5 is?"

I frankly don't care what rank you are or how long you have been in a battalion. All I care about are good ideas, a way to show me that you are serious about the position and could handle it well. We could take one of our founders Jad as a example. A couple years back he was running around as a CT PVT and got waived not for a BCMD, not a RCMD positon but for MCMD. So I don't see how many of guys can think that giving a waive for someone who shows me what their ideas & plans that has it well figured out is a stupid idea.

I will leave it at this if you wish to know more send me a message over by discord. A final closure is that no matter what rank, playtime on the server you can get a waive talk and if you do good enough in it you can get granted to post a application on the forums.

19 bans isnt enough to deny a waive but you can deny a BCMD application for an arrest. I don't get that? 

Asking this here as its a general question i think the public should see.

Last post from me here rest will be in DMS.

 

He acknowledged the fact that he had been banned previously and that he had been a minge. He owned up to what he had done previously and did not use any excuses to make it sound better. He was straight up honest when it came to his previous history, therefore I did not see it nessecary to hold it against him.

You are a funny guy and seem to be doing better on the server, but you have an insane history that just can't be overlooked. Additionally, and honestly, more importantly, you have absolutely no officer or command experience to speak of. Being an NCO is a good start both here and from your past server, but you should get at least a few weeks if not more officer+ time put in before going for something like this. I honestly think that whoever waived you did you a major disservice. Perhaps in the future, but right now no way.

I wont stop ever pushing for that, something I believe in. I'll put in the effort, I'll grow, I'll learn, Innevitably I'll make mistakes.

But you can tell alot about a person, how they react to adversity and strife. I believe in myself and I will continue work on things until I've given all I possibly could to Synergy and 212th.

I will offer Integrity, self-awareness, courage, respect, compassion and resilience. Thats what makes a leader. That's what would make me a good BCMD. A good Cody.

Turf, I very much like you and believe in your come back. You normally come and speak to me in the 501st. Which is great as you are speaking to the other ATK Reg battalion. I cant take away the guts to go for the waive. Props to you wanting to go above and beyond. I do believe however experience goes a hell of a long way and thats not extremely evident in the app.

I have quoted what you have said, and what you have done is highlighted buzz words in orange to stand out to make yourself more clever then what you might seem to be. I believe you are a very switched on individual to be able to do this. 

I do believe in you, and I want you to succeed HOWEVER I do believe that your app is very much just full of buzz words, smoke and mirrors and nothing that will actually benefit the battalion. Which for a battalion that needs someone in the seat needs much more then just that. Id love to see you maybe apply for staff, or keep going through the ranks because since this has gone up ive not actually seen you back on the server? Im not sure if we have just missed each other? 

Hopefully this feedback helps and I am always willing to have a conversation with you being a fellow ATK Reg.

However for me at the moment is a  -1.

Hiya Moose!

I've restrained from responding to alot of these comments, but I just wanted to honour your comment with a response.

I wholly appreciate the feedback, I wanted to explain the reason why my application is designed the way it is. It's completely intentional. I wanted people to get a feel for whom I am as a person before anything else. It's one of my firm believes that skills can be applied to problems, no matter any previous merit or lack there-of.

To put into an example, one I've actually had the pleasure of going through...:
When I first started my barworking job 2 years ago, I had never even stepped FOOT  into a bar/nightclub. I had no idea how to pour beer, how to make cocktails, how to handle myself, etc etc. It was all a mystery to me. It took me to be thrown into the deep end on a busy, and I mean BUSY Friday night rush, when I was able to preform and exceed expectations. I was able to preform well under pressure and learn things as and when I needed to. Being able to adapt and problem solve on the fly, often times without a manager there to hold my hand or show me how to do things.


I am able to preform, grow, learn. remaster, sculpt things on the fly. All I need is to be thrown out of the comfortable birds nest of being an NCO and given an opportunity to shine. Given my writing in previous texts, its intentional like I said. I need to get put into the deep end for everyone to watch me swim, not sink.

P.S:
I've been awfully busy sorting out university crap and working, I've been simply unable to. I'm writing alot of these messages late night(s) after work. I should be free in the upcoming weeks and will be on, back to usual Turf Fish scheduling.

After seeing you in game it is clear that you havent changed at all. so for this I will be changing my +1 to a -1

Hiya Ryanx,

I rescind such behaviours, I joined super late into the event, got lead to brig where I followed other 212th members in there. I had a laugh, a joke, I think its an unfair assesment to say "You haven't changed at all" just because I said "General Gravy Sauce" as an event was ending and that I had banter with a CG member whom I know quite well, OOCly. Saying I havent changed, by that same logic, I wouldve just continued to minge back on Rakata, gotten arrested, banned etc.

I appreciate such feedback, as i've stated previously, but when someone says something so outrageously wrong and damaging to my reputation/image, I'm in my right mind to defend myself. Please understand that I have changed, I have grown a considerable amount and I am not who I once was. Your claim is irrefutably false.

-1 Personally this is not the time to make such a decision. Turf if you genuinely want to be Cody and the BCMD of 212th I would suggest showing the community how you’ve changed and making it into the Officer Core and growing in the battalion.
