  1. Taliban/Army
    Personally I don't like the support class meta. the fact it has speed + shield + smoke + flash. Donator weapons would be the meta for the class. i dont really like that idea. adding a smoke is good. Half the server already has flashes and its pretty much a minge tool. I don't like it, it has its uses of course. 

    Rangers
    I don't like the sniper on a combat medic class. Doesn't make much sense to add that. using sniper faction as a reason isn't really realistic at all.

    TSFU
    No one was talked to in regard for this suggestion. Our faction has really been pushing for changes on out classes but nothing utility based... also every faction on this list has been given a weapon except for TSFU. We have been in constant talks within the community to add a sniper. Many people are aware of this suggestion we have made. 

    DF
    I really think if delta force wants to increase RP potential for infli raids. contact a GM to give you the weapon you desire for that operation. adding an Ak103 of all the weapons seems like its a reach to get another overpowered weapon to DF.

    -1 until this is revised and attempts to balance it are made

    Was a great GM when he was on the server last i remember. Seems he has good intentions for the server. Role model of a player.

    Welcome back bucko, BenZ 

  3. +1 

    When I first started playing the server in 2021. This system made wars on the server better. It made senior enlisted actually lead a squad of PvTs during war. Overall made wars more coordinated. I was shocked it was removed to begin with. Never saw any major issues with the system.

    Confirming my referral. I believe his events are good. Although they were copied from his previous application. I don't really see any major issues with that. Assuming they are your ideas, I think it's okay. I do think more effort could have been put into the question portions. Some of it is word for word from the last application. 

     

    Regardless of the application issues. I think sailor has improved on the server ("toxicity" wise) I personally never saw any of the things that may have happened.

     

    I think sailor would be a good addition to the GM team.👍

    Going to break this down as best I can to make the people present in the thread understand why.

    Rangers has the following,
    Ghost: SR338
    Engineer: Prox mine + LR300 Grenade Launcher
    Both T2 & T3 both have a weapon with Grenade Launchers as well.

    This brings them many advantages. Not only can they have the potential to use the GL in CQC they can also Snipe, SR338 is a heavy hitting weapon. Rangers is the only faction that has a T3 class that has a GL and a medbag. 

    TSFU obviously has the bomber but this doesn't make our suggestion invalid. Having one weapon with such power doesn't mean anything in the case. Bomber cant heal itself after use.

    As a member of TSFU I think its sort of unfair. Rangers blatantly dominate in the sniper category. While I am in a T2 faction I cannot properly counter or even compete unless i spend money (This applies to all T2 & T3 SOC members on tali. I think TSFU needs this upgrade so they can compete with their counterpart. 

     

    I would like to see this change so that TSFU and Rangers can be equal. Having a well equipped enemy brings many benefits. Both factions can grow from this change skill wise, and will develop many new T1 players. Many factions want to help players improve this is your chance.

    Yes, I understand Rangers 'ghosts' acts similar to the suicide bomber class in that thats its the SOC special class but Rangers also has a fuckin proxy mine which in my personal opinion is better than the suicide bomber. No one uses the current SVT-40 its a semi auto doggy ass weapon and honestly the militant class is very under-used aswell this is because the Toz is also pretty doggy. We are getting a suicide bomber class nerf and getting a better weapon that is going to be more likely to be used. If the Tier system is set up in the way that it is meaning that Rangers and TSFU are the same Tier why wouldnt they both be more long-range focused I mean that seems like a higher caliber of skill than CQC

    TL:DR Rangers & TSFU are same tier so it would be fair to say they retain the same 'niches'. Combatant and Militant are both classes that are extremely under-used suicide bomber is getting a nerf to bring TSFU on the same level as rangers and this seems completely fair.

    (Idk what the subfaction stuff is about but splitting the faction in two and creating two different forms of leadership for almost every soc faction [if thats what you're saying] is something that I dont think pop can handle currently but the class changes are def something that should be considered)

    +111111111111

    Subfaction idea is mainly based on rangers 2BAT, 3BAT, 1BAT, 4BAT. Doesnt divide the faction or seperate leadership. it creates a more "This is your job in the faction" if someone plays Sniper they would fall under rangers 2BAT. TSFU would most likely create a similar system. it would create sort of an MOS for members. This would make it so we can fight our respective tier.

    • Agree 1
  7. +1  I have trust in these guys that this map is what we need. I heard nothing but good things about it. Returning to it would bring some old people back to visit for a bit. 

    Also CQC is fun and this map seems to have a decent amount on it.

  8. I was going to say neutral since I don't often see you on Tali. But I think you are a great fit. I like the event ideas, especially the trivia one. +1 from 3rdLt BenZ

    +1, in my opinion I feel like it is worth giving you a chance. You have good community experience and a good hour count, so we know you won't abuse staff powers. I was about to leave a -1 because of your recent activity, as you're not on as frequently as I would expect. However, I feel like you bring a lot to the table for the GM team and it is worth it to have you on the GM roster. 

    I have told the GA my reason for inactivity. Didnt really make it public.

    While, benz you do have the past officer and GM experience that experience was quite some time ago and somewhat shortlived on the GM end of things. Coming into your new term currently you  haven't fully adapted to the current social environment and their players. This is extremely important for game masters. Simply understanding the players concepts of well put together events will allow you to make the most out of the tools given to you. 

    Also "Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs]" This section has 4 sentences so you might want to beef that part up.

    I understand. My ideas Vs. the players expectations are very important things I must consider if I were to be granted the privilege. I appreciate the honesty.

    Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: Yes
    Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: Yes
    Referral(s): N/A
    Past experiences as a Game Master:
    I was previously a gamemaster in December 2021, i was stepped down in late march due to personal issues. I was a decent GM, i held many PVP and RP events.
    Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs]
    I want to be apart of the GM team to help keep new players active during peacetime (Not interrupting tryouts) and for the most part help keep them coming back. I want to bring more events to the server as I notice there aren't many RP or PVP events occurring when I'm online and I want to help out the current GM team raise the activity. I have experience with many other forms of RP from GTA to DayZ. I've been involved in many RP servers on different games. I think with my ideas I could bring a fantastic set of events to the team. I do understand that reference my past GM experience may not turn many heads due to the fact I haven't been active in about a year. Recently returned to MRP in January. I have been making an effort to speak with US and tali officers about event stuff I want to do and trying to get my name back out there and put more of a positive vibe to it. I'm doing my best to acknowledge my faults and I'm trying to be better in all regards of the server and have fun most of all. 

    I do think someone with my level of activity is needed for the role, no disrespect to any of the GMs, an army of one is an army of none. That's why it's important to build some what of a team.
    Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details
    I have Received 3 warns on MRP. warn 1: False reporting | Warn 2: Attm RDM | Warn 3: Fail RP - I crouch jumped 😞
    How much time do you have to contribute to the role?I can play the server on my days off from work. but if i play on like a Friday I may only be on for a few hours | about 28 hours a week, 4 or 5 hours a day.

    In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: Gamemasters are important for the server. Putting up events for the newer players and vets. Keeping players engaged and enjoying their time on the server.

    Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: In the past my RP events weren't very organized but now that I'm no longer an 11A officer i should have time to make interesting RP events for everyone to participate in.

    Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas designed for only your side to take part in: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]
    Terrorist Hunt Event (Basic Slaughter House Event)
    Search and Destroy (US has to track down a HVT that knows the location of a Taliban ammo cache)
    Blue VS Red (Training Operation gone wrong, Unknown forces attack US Army while training at airstrip)
    Zombie invasion (Defend factory from waves of zombies, there would be 8 waves each wave would become more difficult as it proceeds)
     

    Please list and explain 3 unique global event idea designed for the entire server to take part in: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]

    Brown Bird Down [Story mission] Three separate events

    Act 1: The USASOC had a UH-60 crash near the Taliban FOB, Since there is no active special forces personnel active in the area. The secretary of defense has decided to sent the US Army on a suicide mission to capture sensitive intel from the helicopter and deliver it to the airstrip. Where delta force members will retrieve the intel and double cross the army.

    Objectives:     

                           - Recon the area of the crash site
                           - Locate the intel
                           - Deliver the Intel to Delta Force at airstrip

     

    Set up: There would be two teams of 11B Alpha and Bravo. Alpha is the Offensive element while bravo is a Defensive element. Taliban Must defend the Helicopter Crash Site (Once they die they cannot return)

    Act 2: The General of the Army has ordered all of his army elements (Excluding Delta Force) to locate the Secretary of State in FOB Omega, He is most likely being protected by Delta Force Members and their Taliban Allies inside the town. 

    Objectives: 

                           - Locate briefcases in the office of the secretary

                           - Return to base
     

    Setup: Have all available SOC units and Army Attack Town Center (Location of the Secretary)

    Act 3: The US Forces RTB and try to look at the information they found on the laptop but they are suddenly attacked by Taliban SOC

     

    Objectives:   

                           - Defend the base & Crack laptop password (Roll a 25 or below twice, then roll a 75 or above twice)

  12. I dont see any issues, but here is a few things i want to mention.

    On 1/28/2022 at 8:48 AM, Golfy said:

    The first event goes along the lines of the U.S. being spied upon. The U.S. sees on the radar that there are two small aircraft coming toward our airspace, so in turn, we scramble AFSOC to intercept and possibly take down the aircraft and report back to command about what happened. In the midst of all this, we get an airstrike called upon us and everyone has 10 seconds to hide. After the bombs drop, Russian fighters move into the FOB and we have to take out the forces and get our base back.

    I think this could use more backstory. Other than that i think this would be a good event.

    On 1/28/2022 at 8:48 AM, Golfy said:

    Another event is that the U.S. has talks with Ukraine about Russian plans to make an invasion into Europe. We meet at a place on the map with our contact to pay him for the information. As soon as we get there, we immediately get ambushed by Russian fighters and we have to fight them off and get back to base with the information the contact had.

    This is good, i dont see anything wrong with it. I would like to see how this event would play out.,

    On 1/26/2022 at 10:06 PM, Golfy said:

    The third event is a game of the price is right. We will bring various items onto a table in an arena that we build and people have to try to guess the "price" of that item and if they get it right, they get the item which can be either turned in for cash, or they can trade for other items at the end of the show for their bunks.

    i like the idea of adding different kind of events. A lot of people do PVP or PVE but not many choose gameshows. I like the idea

     

    On 1/28/2022 at 8:48 AM, Golfy said:

    This global event is one that is rather unusual. The people of both factions must team up to fight against a common enemy, North Korea. Kim Jong Un has gotten sick recently, and to kick things off before he dies, is to nuke Afghanistan. But here is the thing, FOB Omega is still in Afghanistan, so we have to take cover until after the nuke, then we all have to report to our battle stations in the US FOB and fight off North Korean fighters (North Korea took over the Tali Base, so we are all at US FOB) to keep our FOB and then we are going to retaliate and take Tali base back.

    I think this event needs more information. Why do they want to nuke it exactly? Overall give more backstory.

    I think your events are decent. Obviously i wasn't here for your time as GM so i cant say things like you were a good GM. From what I've read it seems like you understand the concept.

    On 1/28/2022 at 8:48 AM, Golfy said:

    I think that I should be chosen for Gamemaster for a multitude of reasons. The first of these reasons is because I am very active again on the server. The big reason I had to step down when I did previously, is mainly because my papaw passed away and things got hard on my family so I had to step up to work more and help my mamaw care for our two girls we live with. The next reason is because I have experience. I was previously a GM and I had a lot of events and my mind was constantly turning to try to think of the next event that I would represent. I did events like leading the VIP, I did hostage trade offs, I even had this series of events that I did involving a lab experiment gone wrong. Another reason that I think I would be a good fit for the GM spot is because I know a majority of the player base. I know people like Milky, Wyatt, and lots of other people that currently play the server. I try to be nice as possible, which bring me to my next reason, I am level headed. I can keep my cool and my temper is almost nonexistent. If someone says something that they shouldn't or someone has an action they aren't supposed to do, I will just report without me saying anything because that isn't my job. I am supposed to keep players entertained and I am almost like a diplomat if you will. I try to be good to the people of the server through being a GM. Overall, I think I should be chosen because I am active, I have experience, and because I am level headed.

    You had a valid reason to step down as GM. I think this section is way better than most peoples paragraphs.

    I'm going to have to give a +1 the only issue i had was your events need more information. Obviously this is an application so these are rough drafts of events. I cannot wait to see your events and work with you.

  13. Hello. Nitro I'm gonna be honest with you. You need to definitely put more effort into your application. Please take a moment to read my criticisms.

    I plan to benefit the server by being on TS and discord for 12 hours on weekday, 20 hours on the weekend.

     I think your plans to benefit the server are extremely vague, being active on discord and TS is somewhat required of you. Keep in mind the question is " How do you plan on benefiting our server?"

    19 hours ago, NitroGamerEU said:

    Head Moderator in FIVEM Abyss RP Server, Head Admin In 2 Rec Room MilitaryRP, Green Field Military (Head Of Supreme Court) and Greater Rec Realm (Supreme Command Of the Fleet).

    You say you have experience on other games with being staff, please tell me exactly what you did in that time frame. I think that information would be vital to your 2 paragraphs.

    The one thing I hate are Minges, They literally Kill me When they have the chance to and there are loads of them. If I was staff, I would resolve it Because my time at 8 AM, Some minges come on and no staff are online and it would be me and 4 others there just wondering around. I don't care If I have school or shit, I just care to take my time to this server to have many Privates and Drill sergeants.

    If could elaborate how you would handle that situation, that would be good. The most important thing in being a staff member is ensuring you can handle people like minges. I would like to see how you would approach the situation.

    Lastly, I think your application overall needs more effort in it. Your app seems very rushed, its important to take your time and think about every aspect of your intent on applying for staff. Personally i think rushing shows carelessness, which is why I'm giving a -1 

    If you have any questions nitro I'm on TS often, you can ask me anything ill do my best to answer.

    I referred Anthony because I think he will do extremely well as a GM, he has experience as staff as well. He is an active player as well.

    The Rebellion

    I also like the event ideas as well. I think its important to included afghan as much as possible with events.

    Patrol Unit

    I like this one as well. This is very good for keeping the players engaged during peacetime. It works

    I think more information needs to be given here. I believe this could be a very good event.

    Other than that i think your event ideas are pretty good. Goodluck Anthony I hope you get accepted!

     

  15. +1

    I gave whu (west) my referral, i believe he is great for this position. Every time I'm on the server, he is there. He is active and has some decent event ideas. I think he can bring some great stuff to the GM team and could help us make come solid events for the players. I like his events ideas they're simple yet detailed. 

    i wish the best on your app whu, goodluck

    As a somewhat new player (I started in Early March 2021) i want to see this change. I watched a montage made by laroslav from 2020. I like how the weapons function (AEK has more recoil, etc).

    plus i think this is better for the server. I speak with people who were around during the combat system of the time. I like what i hear and they have vaild complaints about the current system.

  17. I think i'm going to give a +1Mao is a great WO in army, I think he would make a good mod. Only thing that made me almost give a neutral was the content / description of your warns. I did not like the back story, i dont think it was needed. Best if you left it at i got a warn for FRP (Date) 

  18. I've been reading through this thread and noticing a lot of the same stuff. Some of it is true, personally i think you need to improve your standing in the community. Thats why im going to give this a Neutral
     

    My only suggestion

    1. Try to be more active in discord / TS. I say this because its best to speak with other members of the community and learning from them, increasing your reputation overall.

    I think rust is perfect for this position. She is a veteran player who knows the server well. From my point of view she seems to be very known within the community, I've never heard anything negative about her. I hope she is accepted to the staff team, Goodluck Rust
