I know my opinion on a staff application is probably not wanted given my typical behavior, however I think as someone typically on the receiving end of staff, Reeper would make a great fit. Regardless of what's said behind closed doors, Reeper to my face is very straightforward and respectful. Even with my normal fuck around behavior he still manages to address me normally. It's an interesting level of respect when you can address people you don't agree with in a respectful tone.
If anything, I feel as though setting him at a position above T.Mod from the start would make sense. As Reeper knows the ropes of staff as well as his behavior is consistent.
I know I rarely post or comment on applications, but this a huge +1. Good luck!

Just to preface, the last few weeks my activity has been on the decline due to IRL work. However, every interaction I had with Jashmeed was always fun and enjoyable. He showed maturity when the time called for it, as well as being able to let loose at times. On the AFG side he's demonstrated that he's dedicated in both RP, and faction progression.
2 hours ago, Salmon said:but it was my only interaction as a US main
7 hours ago, Whue said:Could be just me being solely on the US
Not to rush to Jashmeeds defense, but saying "-1" or "neutral" because he doesn't interact a ton with US isn't a huge reason to -1 his application. He's demonstrated his maturity on the AFG side, which I think is enough. He's an AFG main, a large majority of his time on the server will be solely on AFG. As it is with myself, an AFG main. You two stated it yourselves even, you main the opposite side of the server, you won't see him that often. Now, to give some credit to what you said, I would like to see Jashmeed more active within regards to discord, ts, etc. But I think this is something to be improved upon while he's learning staff.
23 hours ago, acer said:outside of their faction/friends tend to be the staff that end up leaving after a month or two
I know this has been the case in the past, but the contrary has also been true. I don't think it's valid to assume this based on the fact he hasn't interacted with the opposite side as much. While I was in Badri, we interacted with Jashmeed multiple times within RP. Besides, the point of the trial-mod rank is to be a trial. If he leaves after a month or two of being staff, no harm done.
Overall, +1. Demonstrates maturity and fosters a fun environment.

Huge +1, this has 17 agree reacts. I believe this is a simple QOL change that would be super beneficial!

This pretty much sums it up. For a server that has "War" has a large incentive to play, this red-screen thing is a huge annoyance. If it can be removed, then I believe thats ideal.

As someone whos played with the power-cores in action on cs_desert, I can say they 100% created some fun memories during peacetime/downtime. I know inherently, they don't really do much besides sit and potentially power something, however some of the situations they create are super fun. Adding this doesn't do any harm, it just adds another small thing that might create a situation during peacetime!
On 9/21/2021 at 1:22 PM, Sensei said:Have the power cores spawn at different objectives and whoever obtains them during war gets the power core.
Personally, I think them being in their respective bases at the start of a server restart would be the easiest approach to this, however I can see GM's potentially placing the power cores at objs during wars for an extra objective! Tons of cool ideas that could happen.
+1, no downsides to adding them.-

+1 Not really any downsides to doing so. If anything, we get an upgraded version of what we already have so. However, if it removes the ability to gag someone, then I wouldn't support it. As I think gagging someone is already very useful in certain situations.

-1. Dont think we should be stealing ideas from other communities, just come up with something on your own
Lately, MRP has been super stagnant in terms of stuff to do. Who cares if another community uses multiple OBJs in a war? This point is completely irrelevant, the AFG remodel update has been really refreshing. So i'm sure something like this would also be super refreshing for the MRP playerbase.
Overall, +1. I love the idea of having essentially another war period where peacetime activities can still occur.

Considering the fact that VVS and AFSOC are both first life
Yea this alone should warrant enough reason to move forward with these changes. ( being able to play war, class slots, etc ) If it's first life, excluding them forcibly from one of the MAIN things the server offers can be extremely dissuading for players wanting to join. I think a good addition to this suggestion would be moving forward with clarity on WAC damage as well. As it stands, attack helicopters in war are not allowed due to the fact that they cannot be taken down. This has been ran through a thousand times. Finding a way to properly balance it for GMOD combat would allow more use of attack helicopters in war which would be awesome for both sides.
On 9/13/2021 at 2:34 PM, acer said:Fixed friendly fire in war for both AFSOC and VVS would be amazing. The ability to play war or even exist during war without being killed by friendlies would make the faction MUCH more enjoyable. This would also come with the ability to capture points, hopefully at least.
This issue has been a thing for some time now, I don't know entirely why its been so long but i'd love to not blast a VVS on accident in war with my car LMAO.
On 9/13/2021 at 2:34 PM, acer said:cw_ber_msbs
Weapon that AFSOC is suggesting their new primary be. This change would be from g3a3 ----> msbs on the operator and headhunter classes.
Can you elaborate more on this? Why should the weapon be changed? To my understanding, which is purely based off of my few interactions with Jake, the AFSOC weapons are fine. The MSBS is a really good weapon, so if you can back this up with a video, or something to show it need balanced, that would be great.
Overall, +1, elaborate more on the weapon change though if ya could

+1, there is no reason not to accept this really. As is stands if you're a GM you don't involve yourself in the event itself simply because you move at mach-1 if you try inching forward on the GM class.

I don't doubt you were a good staff member when you WERE staff. However to my knowledge you just recently started playing again. I believe you should take more time to get back into the server.
Just for reference, when I started playing again, you were in Ozzy's DF but never played. Not saying thats a reason to not support you as staff, but i'm referencing that as the LAST time I knew you were actively playing the server. I hate the "wahwah haven't interacted with RU enough" responses, but what i'm saying is, you haven't been back LONG enough to be back on the time. You JUST came off reserves for rangers Rust, use that rank to prove you're gonna be actively playing again. Once you're back in the server and playing I think you'd be great on the staff team!
I just don't think it's fair for people on the team to support this application when you only just came off of reserves. It's like if I ( or anyone else ) got my reserves in SSO and then decided to apply the next day/week. Prove you'll be playing again and i'll happily support you!

GMs can do this too within the staff discord
I feel like the general point was missed, I messaged you privately to explain what exactly, "help foster new discussion" in the staff team means. I felt like you took the point quite literally. Again, I do not want to be a GM. Respond to me on discord if you have anymore questions!

I'm not gonna +1 or -1 this app but I would +1 a GM app
This is not meant to sound rude, but if I truly wanted to pursue being a GM I would've applied. Any event/RP mention in my application was used to show that as a staff member I would foster an environment that benefits RP and the server. I'm pursuing staff so I can help foster more discussion within the staff team. As well as everything stated in my application. *no point in repeating it all*
2 hours ago, Theos said:Edit: I've since remembered, at the time of the DF post, you told me you didn't care about Russia's struggles because you were a US main, and that's why you made the DF post. I'd also wanna see something that suggests such a viewpoint on the server has changed. I don't know if your viewpoint has or hasn't changed on that, so I really can't give a +1 to this app.
That wasn't what I said word-for-word. At the time of the DF post I was in GB as an SNCO. When it comes to issues on the server that I have knowledge of and the ability to formulate a strong argument for, it was only US-Sided issues. My viewpoint on the server is obviously to benefit both sides, but at the moment, and at the time, I was only able to formulate what I HAD information on. As well as a personal interaction with said problem. I hope that helps clear up any confusion.
2 hours ago, Theos said:As you concede, you're still a somewhat controversial figure in MRP and that's why I'm not comfortable giving this App a +1. In my opinion, someone's image on the server is one of the most important aspects when applying for Staff, so I'd suggest working on that before becoming a member of the team.
I understand where you're coming from, however I believe my somewhat controversial figure is from disagreeing with certain parties on the server. I admit, I am very blunt and I am not afraid to step on people's toes, regardless of rank or status. I think this attitude may have contributed to that reputation with a couple select GROUPS of players. I will always state my opinion on a subject regardless.
2 hours ago, Theos said:I also agree with Salmon though, if you were to apply for GM then that's different and I probably would give it a +1.
Again, if I wanted to apply for GM I would. I just personally believe I would have more motivation for the staff team rather than creating events.

Staff members. Staff meetings, discussions with current staff members. Etc.
30 minutes ago, Party said:as for events and promoting RP : 1 it will take you some time to be able to do events since its a T.Admin + and second you can help promote RP with just leading 1 side of the event. so there again nothing that would really say you deserve a staff position.
I purely brought up the point of previous events as a way to show I care about RP. I believe fostering an environment for RP is something staff members should do, in the past weeks, its been shown that a few select staff members do NOT foster this environment.
32 minutes ago, Party said:DF is fine, they are all active idk wtf you are talking about but even if you get accepted, telling DF what to do or making any decision will not even come close to what you will be doing,
This post was made previously concerning how Delta Force was. Not how it currently is, the point of adding it my app was showing I will bring an issue publicly if need-be. That's all.
34 minutes ago, Party said:not something you would expect from a guy who wants to be a staff member.
Warns can be explained. They don't determine my competency. If anything they're misunderstandings.
36 minutes ago, Party said:that you might abuse the power (as little as it is as a T.Mod) for personal gain and helping your friend group
This is a wild claim, I haven't abused in the past, I wouldn't abuse this time moving forward.
36 minutes ago, Party said:from that to all the way even No cliping during war and general abuse of power
I don't understand what this has to do with me. I have never done any of said things. I understand why you might not trust me, but I can't remember any interactions we've had personally. If you want to talk to me in TS or DM me sometime I'd be more than happy to.

you proceeded to take screenshots of only the other servers models and send them right to Jake and garnet, and told them that me acer fonza and ozzy where planning on resigning for that server which I don’t know where you got that from
I never mentioned anything about models or said you were planning on resigning. To be blunt, myself and other people in that group were concerned about your activity on MRP declining, and from our perspective, no looks on returning to what it was. When we were asked why you guys were inactive *myself and another individual were pulled into a TS channel*, we each explained our side. I didn't say anything except what actually happened. In my opinion, it was a valid concern due to that fact it felt like the people who were on said server were neglecting their responsibilities on MRP. It was nothing against of you guys, I was asked about it, so I answered. I hope that clears and misconception you may have had, always free to talk to me on TS if ya wanna know more about it.

In-game name: Stork/Igor
Age [minimum 15 y/o]: 19
SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:168017376
Warns: 3. Can explain if curious!
Timezone: ETC.
Playtime? [minimum 75 hours, use /playtime in-game]: | V KST Igor has played for 1653:09:38.
Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: [YES/NO] Yes.
Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?:[YES/NO] Yes.
Referral(s): [What administrator recommended you to apply?] None, didn't ask.
Past experiences as staff: [Optional] Mod on GGMRP x2. ( 2016 & 2019 )
How do you plan on benefiting our server? [minimum 2 paragraphs] First and foremost, bringing a differing opinion onto the staff team would be very beneficial. I currently believe a large majority of the staff team don't bring any opposing views in terms of update ideas, gameplay, etc. I think it goes without saying that I have a differing view on certain things on the server, all things within the rules. I believe when the team consistently is agreeing with each other, it leaves very little room for discussion or the opposing end of the discussion.
Secondly, as a T-Mod there isn't much I can bring to the server immediately; overtime I hope I can encourage more action from the senior level staff team to be included in faction leadership + pushing for updates. From my understanding and from what i've been told, there isn't much encouragement for staff to intervene in faction issues. For example, "X" faction leader is doing poorly and not representing a good leader. As a T-Mod, all I could do is encourage senior staff to step in and solve the issue, rather then the faction progressively getting worse. Bringing more issues to light and pushing for change is a beneficial quality in my opinion. I am very blunt when it comes to my opinion in response to ideas others present, I think this level of bluntness would be good at presenting counter-arguments in the team to promote more discussion and thinking.
Lastly, fixing in-game issues and promoting RP is something i've done in the past and continue to do as I play the server. As well as demonstrate a clear understanding of the rules and when false warnings are handed out. A couple examples are as follows:
Doing events previously bringing RP onto the server: These events were a while ago, however they're the only ones I have logged somewhere for easy access to show players what I am capable of. Obviously some of these may fall under GM responsibilities, but the main takeaway is that I am willing to push RP within the rules AND encourage others to do so. Which overall benefits the server.
*unsure if others can see this as its been archived, but I can still see it so...*
Assisting in the Addition of RUGSV: I helped toss in ideas and critique when it came to the addition of RUGSV. Most of the formatting being done by others, but the push to add and create something for unity on the server was something I partook in. Which so far has proved to do just that! The roster is below. ( Public )
EDITED OUT
Wanting to address major issues publicly for public opinion and outlook: The most notable one being the post below addressing Delta Force's problems. negligence?!?!!? *joke*
Without going too much in depth, wanted to make an issue public and discussed, it worked. Was very blunt and brought an opinion out for others to discuss, promoting change amongst Delta Force.
*unsure if others can see this as its been archived, but I can still see it so...*
Have you ever been banned or punished on GG MRP? If so, Include details: Previously perma banned late 2016 for toxicity by Phantom if I remember correctly, we spoke about it and it was revoked.
Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: Yes. When I applied in 2016 and 2019.
How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Well, whenever i'm online. It's hard to give an exact number simply because my work schedule is not the same thing every week. Some weeks will be more hours, some will be less. However it hasn't been a issue since i've returned so, I think I would be fine.~ A slight thing to say before I close this, I am aware of my reputation within regards to certain players not liking me. However, I think being on opposing sides of the server, as well as opinions, can prove to benefit the choices made for both sides. Being on the same team may allow us to more professionally address any issues rather then belittle each other passive aggressively. Providing an unbiased opinion on each other is well within our abilities, I will state, I have reacted poorly beforehand, as have others, I hope this doesn't determine the status of my application. As I do not believe I NEED to change how I address critique and my opinion on changes/attitude purely because someone is upset I disagree. ~

Staff members in-game name: Hysteria
Staff members SteamID (/id (name): ( he's offline at the time of this report. )
Date & Time of incident: 8/18/2021
Timezone: ETC
Warn Reason: ATT RDM.
What happened? (include any proof): https://streamable.com/4u42yb ( Can upload the full 30 seconds of the clip if need-be, after the shots I just run inside comms. )
Why should your warn be removed?: I shot the ground as the person ( Coco ) was halfway in comms from my perspective. I shoot at the ground to WARN him, as we just kidnapped a GB in comms. The bullets ricochet off the ground, which appears to be a bug that I was NOT aware of. I was then warned for attempted RDM, when that was NOT what happened at all. Not only does he appear on the comms claim, but my crosshair was on the ground. The ricochet damage was purely because that part of the map ricochets which I was not aware of.-

Hello stork!
Sorry to hear that you had trouble with the way I handled my sit. I always try to take all the evidence I can and compare them.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/873665234261385287/873667099405463712/New_video.mp4
In this clip, the reporter was in the doorframe of the spawnroom, which is still the spawnroom.
I hope you can understand the evidence that was given to me and what decision I had to make.
Sorry! Absolutely understand your perspective! However given my own clip showing what I am seeing, it's pretty apparent on my side that it is not spawncamp.
22 minutes ago, Party said:So you want us to replace the RDM warn with a spawncanp warn?
No party! Sorry you're confused but my intention is to get the warn entirely removed.
22 minutes ago, Bortnik_ said:es, it was confirmed by fonza
Gotcha, here I don't have the clip from my perspective because I find the spot I killed you at in the 1 minute I clipped. But here's a screenshot comparison when you two were shot.
This is "Diana"s spot. https://gyazo.com/fb13f44a0c7f531bb54b18a2b8061db2
In the doorway at about the same angle you are, facing me instead of turning to the side like you do.
This is Bortniks spot. https://gyazo.com/73df7882abe21ff6a9187db810773126
Again, about the same angle and position in the doorway. I'm sure from my perspective you are also standing outside the doorway.

Warn Reason: "RDM" ( Should be spawncamp if anything )
What happened? (include any proof): https://streamable.com/2ocsw3 Warned from RDM, i'm assuming he meant spawncamp though! Anyways, he was shown evidence, i'm assuming either a body in spawn, or him stepping in and out of the spawn room. But anyways, once he stepped outside he got shot, pretty simple. I showed Fonza the clip in the sit and it was disregarded for whatever reason. Don't know what the confusion was.
Why should your warn be removed?: Wasn't spawncamp or RDM. Pretty standard. Honestly, could've handled myself better after he disregarded the evidence. Was just pretty mad something pretty clear was completely disregarded by an Admin. -

Q Spawn Menu
This menu has been disabled for all players who are not GMs or Admin+
Just a question, but why was this disabled? I think a lot of players use it for editing their WAC settings, as well as their CW settings.
EDIT: Unless all of that is still accessible, currently not on the server.

Parachutes
Moving forward, players will now be able to jump out of aircrafts and utilize a parachute in order to hit the ground in operations without taking fall damage. As with all new features, please be patient while I tinker with parachutes and reach a happy medium of how they work.
This is a good one!
This one too.
Anyways, RU is loving this update, been using the parachutes as much as we can, been a blast! Thank you!!!

Venom recently joined Vega and has shown nothing but interest in assisting RU within RP and engaging with all other RU factions. His application also clearly defines his need/want to improve the server. I think bringing someone onto the staff team that has conflicting views with other staff opens the way for more constructive thinking/discussions within the staff team.
1 hour ago, Bowl22 said:Saying you are giving the sever a amazing reflect but then hopping onto the sever to base camp the new players?
"giving the server an amazing reflect with new players, improving the server."

Not speaking on behalf of Venom at ALL. But giving someone negative rep on their application for their combat playstyle isn't even valid imo. He plays war the way he wants, when asked to push back by RU officers, he listens. As an individual he's constructive and provides some good ideas within RU Operations. Which I believe can help assist the server as a whole!
1 hour ago, hysteria said:you are not a saint for US to say the least
This has been said before on other applications, but it shouldn't matter if he plays US/RU. He's well known on RU, got to an officer position, showed dedication, and is now in a T1 and actively plays. I think he's shown great potential within those actions.
Overall, +1, I like your application and you've already shown you want to stick with MRP and help improve it. With people leaving for SWRP, I think you'd be a great addition on the team.-

I typically disagree with Python in a ton of topics, but he definitely has the experience on SWRP to back up his application. As someone who is almost always arguing with Python, I think he'd be a good leader given he's already lead prior, he has a few moments on MRP that show lack of maturity, BUT, when he's in serious positions he acts as such. We may not be in the best circumstances with each other, but I think he'd make a great leader for 212th. +1. Good luck!

Brian's Warn Appeal
in Denied
Posted · Edited by Soappppp
*info
This is 100% correct. After being interrogated, Brian proceeded to spout out the name "Wolfpack". There really doesn't need to be any explanation as to why I would believe this is fake. It's a really poor RP name, obviously no one is named Wolfpack. Which is why it was said, its fair.
This is also true. After being shot in the foot, he proceeded to have no fear for his life, it was obvious to all parties involved that Brian just didn't care to RP any situation out. Which is why I said it was FRP. Regardless though, you could say almost anything as your defense simply because you "didn't want to listen".
This argument can't really be used. It was obvious after you said you were "BORN WITH THE NAME WOLFPACK SIR"; that you didn't want to RP. Given the situation, being shot in the foot would probably incline you to listen to the simple request of looking at the ground. It wasn't an Info related question ( which is why there was no /roll ). All in all, trying to make a connection like that isn't really fair as your defense. Not to be rude, but I would assume if something similar happened to you from someone like Smity ( the GA ) you'd be inclined to be upset as well. Whatever way this report goes, i'm sure the kidnap could be used as a great example!
Again, would've done more RP with you had you RP'd it out. We assumed given your position and knowledge of the server that you would've at least said something or acted in a way that showed you didn't want to listen. Rather then just stare at the ceiling blankly and say you born with the name wolfpack...
Only reason im commenting on this appeal is being I was DIRECTLY involved with the situation. That is all. Of course if Theos thinks it isn't necessary he can do whatever he wants with it. I just think someone at the rank of S.Mod and Marshal should be more inclined to RP, or act like it I guess.
EDIT: forgot to mention, as for the warn, I did not report him. I just think this bit of info is important.
