-=Section 1=- ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In-game Name: Grand Admiral Thrawn Steam Name: [GL] Bear Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:92083887 -=Section 2=- ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ There is a lot information below. I tried to break it down a bit for those who do read it but its still a lot of grey text so I apologize. For those who do read it, thank you for taking the time to. What is the role of Darth Vader? Very similarly to Grand Admiral Thrawn, Darth Vader's responsibilities revolve around the oversight and function of the Imperial Armed Forces. Whether it be resolving issues, mentoring new or existing HC, or solving new projects and problems. Both Vader and Thrawn are meant as overseers to mainly the High Command team but also to the three branches as well while still operating as the hand of the Emperor. In addition to the above, SHC has the responsibility and opportunity of working alongside SMT in generating and creating new RP opportunities or functional changes to the server. Why do you want to become the role of Darth Vader? Becoming the position of Darth Vader has been my goal ever since my time as IC Commander. I set this as a goal for myself in order to continue to push myself into always improving, always striving to do more for both the server and whichever area I was focusing on. I thoroughly enjoy interactions between players and RP, and believe I can do more for both in the position of Darth Vader. The 501st battalion truly excels and grows when there is the presence of a Vader. This is something that they have gone without for a very lengthy amount of time. In the past we have seen instances where the Vader position was filled and the 501st have grown drastically. I believe they deserve a Vader that will be active and interact with them over a long period of time. This is something that I know I can and have been striving to accomplish. What experience do you have that would be relevant to the role of Darth Vader? (To preface, I will list bulletin points under each section as a summary in case you do not want to read all the typed information). With very close to a year in High Command (7/17/21) and a few months as SHC Grand Admiral Thrawn, I can bring a large amount of experience to bear. I understand the role of both a SHC and HC member as well as how to mentor new command members. Regardless of position or branch. I have had multiple opportunities to work with SMT and other various people in my time and have always tried my utmost best to meet or excel at my duty. Taking on multitudes of projects, for even multiple battalions at times, teaches quite a bit on how to manage multiple tasks and meet goals. SHC/HC Large amount of experience both in HC and RP Mentorship of new and existing members Leading by example on all issues to the best of my ability Multitasking on multiple projects/tasks During my time in the Imperial Commandos, I believe I ran one of the most successful and fastest growing battalions in Army for its time. Despite being at the time a $60 donator battalion, we outnumbered many other battalions with active members even after roll calls. Additionally, tried my best to mentor a strong officer corps into promoting good leadership qualities and responsibility. From this is I was promoted to the first ever IC Senior Commander. My time in Army High Command was, I feel, where my career really took off. During every rank I tried to bring something new to the table, something useful, a change that would benefit all. Lasting changes. In IC I revamped most documents as many had become outdated and obsolete, as well as, made new rosters for every part of the battalion. Additionally, was able to the get the new much needed IC Command models added to their command team. Imperial Commandos Creation of most of all IC documents, which are still used currently. Roster creations that were efficient and used until roster system overhaul. Addition and implementation of Imperial Command Lore Command Squad models that are currently used (and glorious). Havoc Company was reworked into the current Regimental Engineer program as you know it now. Small changes to it have been made since its inception but mostly the same. Created all universal documents except for the technical manual which are still used and then entrusted to the current leads and overseers of the sub-regimental program. In the Stormtrooper Corps, we established what you know now. Shoretrooper Corps and Scout Company make up the two main branches of the Stormtrooper Corps that we have. Implemented the Storm Commando program for selected officer+ in order to give an incentive for NCOs to stick in the ranks and promote something that was truly hard to get into, something that needed to be earned. From this came the PVP Menaces that Stormtroopers/Storm Commands are today! (Thanks Wheat lol) I created new rosters for Scouts, Shoretroopers, and Storm, as well as, all new documents (which are beautiful in my opinion) for the whole battalion (except for storm commando which was done by ST command). This, at the time, was an incredibly massive undertaking but was truly worth all the work. Havoc Company reworked to Regimental Engineers. Creation of all documents for the new sub-regiment. Got program off the ground with the assistance of other HC and CMD. Havoc rank transfers of current command, officers, and ncos to various battalions/branches with the assistance of Bon. Stormtrooper Corps Fixed, reworked, and established current Shoretrooper Corps, Scout Company, and Storm Commando Program as you know it. Storm Commando updated again by current ST command. Remade ST sub regiment and subclass rosters until roster system overhaul. Remade all documents with exception of Storm Commando docs. The above plus many other smaller changes taught me a great deal on both oversight and interaction. Both required for a position such a Darth Vader. Why do you think I should pick you over other applicants? Other than Bon, no one else in HC has as much experience as myself. This has stemmed from constantly putting myself out there and finding what needs to be done, good and the bad. I know that I have what it takes to fill this position as I have continuously tried to improve in every aspect of the duty entrusted to me. I fully understand the responsibilities expected of a SHC member and do not hesitate on things that need to be done. I remain proactive on branch or battalion issues and try to mentor and promote other HC members into completing these tasks or learning from them. As SHC you are looked to by not just low command but high command as well and you must set a good example to them by leading where needed. This is something I have always tried to do. Please outline some ideas that you could bring to improve the server as Darth Vader: One of the things that become available with an active Darth Vader are legends missions or events. I have done some before with 501st tracking down an escaped Starkiller Clone, which went really well and people loved it. Missions like this are really under used especially with the extensive amount of content around Darth Vader. This is something that I would like to bring back. Something that we have recently started back again but have dialed back are the weekly HC missions. I would like to set up a program and plan these things out a month at a time. Whether it be just an unaffiliated mission or a storyline mission. Something more set in stone and on a schedule. This promotes hitting server capacity, great experiences for every player, and opportunities for Gamemasters to work with HC on missions and gain more experiences as a GM. Set plans for these missions can give GMs great experience and inspiration into new events and how to run, plan, and execute them. Not really Darth Vader specific but something none the less is branch specific PVP/PVE tournaments. A few teams from each battalion at 3-4 members working together towards a specific objective. Capturing a HVT with hardcore HP/Armor or just TDM. We have had fantastic success with the bi-monthly PVP tournaments done by Sainty (amazing job by the way buddy) but why stop there! Something like this can get people involved, create desire to improve in these aspects. PVE rounds could consist of multiple NPC targets with moderate low HP and a player team or 3-4 coordinating towards a specific goal with "hardcore" hp/armor. Promote teamwork, communication, and good planning. Get with battalion command to set up practice times a couple times a week. Something like the above idea could really spice up the bi-monthly tournament. Create a more level playing field so we may not all get demolished by Stormtroopers!! (forreal they played exceptionally well and well done to them). Last but certainly not least, interactions with the 501st. As previously mentioned above, 501st have gone without a Vader for quite awhile. Something that I would very much like changed. The 501st battalion thrives when a Vader is on the server but the position has not been filled for a long time, this is something that they have suggested before as one of their utmost wishes. -=Section 3=- ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In your personal experience with being a player, what issues have you come across? I have noticed a few re-occurring issues in my time on the server. Some are fixable through effort and some are things that have to be continuously watched. Disrespect to new players being one of them. Lack of effort from battalion teams or high command. In response to the question above, how would you handle and fix these issues? Disrespect is something that I and others have preached about many times in both command meetings and privately. It must constantly be promoted in order to keep respectfulness and tactfulness to new players. They are the life blood of the server and without them we do not continue to grow. This must be at the forefront of our minds when dealing with these situations. This is something that needs continual effort. To address the lack of effort we need to advocate for strong command. Ideally, command that takes the initiative in tasks or is moldable and willing to learn. This, I believe, can be fixed at the very top and work downwards. Lead by example, promote and mentor into tasks, and getting the right people into positions that they can benefit the server and others in the best manner. We have reward programs for this but I believe we can do more in this regard. Anything else you would like to add? Thank you so much for taking the time read my application and consider me for the position!

-=Section 1=- In-game Name: Grand Moff Tarkin Steam Name: [GL] Mann Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:35540992 -=Section 2=- What is the role of Darth Vader? The role of Darth Vader is a Senior High Command position to serve as the right hand of the Emperor. Darth Vader and the rest of SHC are a team that needs to effectively communicate to serve and support the people of the Empire/Community. Every member of SHC, such as Darth Vader, has oversight of all branches, not just one, which is why they need to keep the best interests of each branch and maintain a positive experience for everyone who wants to take part in our communities roleplay. As Imperial High Command, we make fundamental changes that impact the roleplay. Darth Vader and SHC must make sure these changes are just and will positively impact how we roleplay on the server. Why do you want to become the role of Darth Vader? I wish to become Darth Vader as I am here for the long run. I want to see the server and community prosper positively. If I am appointed into the position of Darth Vader, I can have more oversight and say in how we roleplay in the future. I want to make a positive impact on the server for everyone and make things a bit more efficient for Command teams so they can also focus on improving everyone's roleplay experiences. Becoming Darth Vader and involving myself further with Inquisitorius and all regiments to assist in their growth would be an honor. Darth Vader/SHC must remain professional and respectful, without bias, as their decisions can affect everyone, and I believe I can do just that. I can adapt and improve from any mistakes; this community is an excellent experience that I see myself being a part of for a long time, and I only want to see it continue to thrive and bring everyone the entertaining and positive experience I have been a part of. Becoming Darth Vader and assisting the rest of Senior High Command to oversee roleplay but also the future of the community would be an honor, especially as a rank as significant as Vader. What experience do you have that would be relevant to the role of Darth Vader? I may not have the most experience on this server, but I have achieved a lot since joining this community. My first battalion was Shock Security because I was intrigued by the K2 droids. After joining Shock, I swiftly reached the rank of COL and K2 lead, where I created the documents which are the basis for the current K2 Security Droids. On 10/2021, I transferred into Death Troopers, rapidly reaching the rank of Vice Commander a few weeks afterward and eventually the position of Senior Commander 3 months later. During that time, I assisted in creating Death Trooper Unit TI-23 and its documents. I also created the documents for their Sarlacc Company [T2] unit. All these changes are long-lasting changes that have improved the regiment and continue to bring attention to a serious and relatively small regiment. After joining the High Command team as Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax in 03/2022, I created the current roster system, which has been well received, making roster updates and logging officer activity more efficient for all regimental command teams. Along with this roster system, I created documents to assist in training new Command Members. A few weeks ago, with the help of SHC+, we successfully transitioned Inferno Squad into a sub-division of the Imperial Navy. Why do you think I should pick you over other applicants? I believe I should be appointed as Darth Vader over the other applicants as I have already shown the ability to create fundamental changes that have thus far positively impacted the regiments/server. I am an active member of the community, often spending several hours actively interacting with the people of this community. Aside from being one of the more active members of High Command, I believe I have learned a lot during my time roleplaying with everyone. I have remained unbiased and open-minded and wish to continue providing the Empire/Community members with a fun and fair roleplay experience. After being in High Command for over six months, I believe I can better serve this community at the level of Darth Vader. Regardless of the outcome, I will continue to dedicate my time to this community and assist in bringing everyone a better Empire. Please outline some ideas you could bring to improve the server as Darth Vader: As Darth Vader, one idea I can get to improve the server would be a better way to enforce the Clearance Levels. As it stands, we have signs and physical personnel to guard Clearance locations. A possible solution to enforcing these clearance areas would be adding keycards that actively restrict locations, only opening the doors for people with proper clearance. I can bring additional ways to increase the responsibility of each regiment's officer teams. For example, allowing Officers more ability to issue punishments on troopers that misbehave or granting all officers, instead of just Command Officers, to conduct Flag-ups and Announcements would also be viable ideas in bringing more independence. In addition, all High Command should be looking into preparing all troops for Command positions. Providing our Officer+ teams with autonomy and more responsibility is a great way to give them the experience they need to become great Command members. -=Section 3=- What issues have you encountered in your personal experience with being a player? In my experience as a player, I have seen a few problems, such as a lack of respect and professionalism in situations that call for it. I have also experienced a lack of mentorship to the Command teams, many failing their time as newly appointed Command Members. In response to the question above, how would you handle and fix these issues? In response to the problem of disrespect, lack of professionalism, and lack of mentorship. Should I be entrusted with the position of Darth Vader, I would push for members of Command to be open to asking questions and providing their honest opinion on situations without fear of being judged or singled out. Pressing our current High Command to actively communicate and make known that we are here to assist and provide guidance. I would hold Regimental Command and High Command alike to a higher standard focusing on providing a professional and welcoming environment where the Officer+ teams know their Command team is there to help support them and improve their experience. As Darth Vader, I would lead by example and make sure all Command members strive to bring our players a unique, welcoming experience they too can see themselves being a part of in the future. Anything else you would like to add? I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this application. I may not have the most experience within this community, but I see myself here for a long time and help grow and experience the fun. Regardless of the outcome, I welcome all criticisms and will continue to bring a fun, welcoming environment for everyone to enjoy. Thank you for reading. I hope you have a good time.

Heya everyone, I’m sure many of you knew this was coming but I’m saying goodbye. I just don’t have enough time for the server anymore and life is starting to get real hard and busy. Only being able to play during the off hours is also just demotivating. Im happy about what I was able to achieve as Medical High Command and CI Command and I hope much success will come after this resignation. Zack/Twix/Baeto: It was great working with y’all and talking to you guys about HCMD stuff. I hope all of you get far in your ranks. (Baeto: You’ll do great as next AHOMS :D) Medical Command: Yall have been one of the best command group I have ever seen. There are always issues here and there that I have but as long as you guys keep medical active and RP afloat……I’m glad. Good luck everyone, keep at it and y’all will be amazing. Bop: SORRY for failing quota like every week. I’m sure I’ll be less of a burden when I resign lmfao. Cya later CI PVT o7. THE CI Command (you guys know who you are): You guys have been great people to be around and it was a true shame that I haven’t been able to talk as much after I resigned. Most of you guys are gone already but I wish you the best. Other HCMD+ : good luck in your HCMD+ endeavours Sorry if this was a bit short, but I don't feel like giving specific resignations is deserving. You guys know who you are, and I will see yall later again if I ever return. CYA, Rowphin i count money, i count money

-Support Massive skill issue Everyone is capable of doing Makes combat more fun Keeps skill in the limited combat skill the server requires. Combat is pretty much depends on who has the most HP and Armor, giving a way to still kill people with higher HP and Armor (Seeing as guns don't do realistic damage)

+ Support I have been gone from ImperialRP for over a month now, however during my year a half trek in ImperialRP Command and eventually High Command, I can with no doubt in my mind say Bear is the absolute most valuable and plausable candidate for this position. He constantly outperforms the job required of him and does so all while juggling a full time job and personal life. He is one of the most respectful individuals I have met on the server and strives to uphold this quality. He is a fantastic command member and even better High Command consistently bringing fourth new ideas and plans which both better the battalion and the server as a whole. In my honest opinion, with no bias or doubt in my entire mind, Bear is the absolute best and only choice for the position of Vader.

What are you suggesting? - Buff 1048 HP to be a little higher. Not the same as 1048 but mabye 250 or something higher How would this change better the server? - at the moment 1048-A can only be summoned if 1048 collects 3 ears by rolling 50+ 3 times. If he fails one of these rolls he will most likely be killed and forced to start over, and even in a perfect situation of finding 3 people ont their own to collect ears from with good rolls could take 30+ minutes up to an hour or higher if it is peek hours. And with 1048-A having so little health he most of the time is killed before he can even contribute throwing all that work down the drain making playing on 1048 for his actual purpase pointless since 1048 himself can only attack with his knife in self defense. Making this change would make 1048 more appealing as more value of 1048-A could be achived. I also do not believe this would ruin the balance of the SCP as creating 1048-A is a very tedious and time consuming activity making playing 1048 actually worth it. Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. - Perhaps making 1048-A more difficult to contain, however as stated above this is heavily offset by the requirments to create 1048-A Who would this change mostly benefit? - SCP players since 1048 would actually have a reason to play on other then to flag up for test xp. Please link any workshop content, screenshots, or anything that you think may be helpful to those who view this suggestion - None that i can think of

Hello everyone, you might know me as High Admiral Astro or Agent (no bitches) Kallus. This resignation might be out of the blue for some people and quite shocking, but I am announcing my resignation/retirement from ImperialRP and Gaminglight as a whole because of one reason: My brother is dead. He died in a car accident and sadly passed away 2 hours later. I am beyond heartbroken as me and my brother were very close and was sort of like a best friend. Now that he is gone, I have no more motivation for this server, as I am now severely depressed and stricken with grief. I have to do what’s right and stick by my family through these hard times and not put my focus on a Garry’s Mod server. With that being said, there are a few people I would like to mention that made my life so much better on the server: Matrix & Boomer: You guys are the best people I have ever worked with and are one of my closest friends on the server. I hope you guys come back someday. Kio: The man himself. I’ve known you since I joined the server and loved all the memories we have made together. We may have had some tense moments, but you are a great friend and a fun guy to be with. Proteus: I’m glad that we were able to put the past behind us and become friends again. You are a good guy and I hope to see you become NHC someday. Do great things man. Ankh: Ehhh Ima leave it at that. Mann: Definitely a great guy to work with. You have helped me so much ever since I became Fleet Admiral, I hope to see you as Thrawn one day. Ted: Stop being weird. Jpackis: Joe mama All of HC: Y’all have been amazing to work with, hope y'all do even more great things. If I did not mention you, don’t be sad. I am sure that I have plenty of interactions with you but I am not trying to type up a school essay. Thank you to everyone for making my life on the server so fun! High Admiral Astro signing off

-support just aim lol

WH0!? +Support

+ support Winter has shown dedication to the server and rounded out most of his rough edges. I think given the chance, he could make an excellent staff member!

bro.... fuck you....... Imma miss you a SHIT ton man, I wish you nothing but the best. o7

O7, you were an amazing guy to be around with, have a nice retirement man

NOOOO FUSION I will miss you mate, good luck with college and stuff!

See ya Tank, always were a cool command member. o7

+SUPPORT -Epic voice -Genuinely chill guy -High ranking naval so has proven to be worthy -Gaming

+Support He's a really nice guy that does a great job hi cardigan!!!

+support idk why you resign in the first place but yeah he is trustworthy great events good application

+ support give shirt man ET

+support I have come to know Fizz through my time with Purge and IQ, and I can say without a doubt that I think he would be great on staff. He's cool-headed, kind, and genuinely willing to help out and/or ask for help.

I have atleast 1min of playtime

+ MASSIVE SUPPORT I have had many interactions with Mann and have seen him to be a great high command member. Even had a really minor issue fixed that Naval had for a while fixed quickly. In roleplay you conduct yourself professionally and handle the job greatly! I think you would be a great Darth Vader This is a suggestion if you read this, buy the program Morphvox Pro or some other Voice software for Vader. Its way better to have an acutally correct sounding vader in my opinion than to not have a voice changer for this role. You can also easily setup the breathing effect for this job with programs such as the Morphvox Pro or Soundpad. Highly recommend Morphvox as you can get several different voices from that one. But again its up to you. Best of luck!

Mann has been an extremely great member of the High Command team for Navy, and from everything I've seen from him, I can put my reputation on the line to say that Mann would be an absolutely amazing member of SHC and fill the role of Vader to its fullest potential. I've been around a few High Command in my time of the server from July of 2021 until now, and I can say that Mann is one of the High Command that I envision all High Command should be. As he stated in his application, he has had a server wide impact with his roster change, and if he can do that at the rank of Fleet admiral, I'm sure he could do much more at the rank of Vader. As someone that's directly under Mann and has had direct contact with him since 4/23/22 (The date I was promoted to the then existent Commodore), Mann has been nothing short of helpful, informative, kind, and efficient. He actively engages with all ranks of command, and is always assisting them without taking over their jobs and working to improve the battalions he oversees whenever he can. I can also say he is a man(n) that holds no bias and is always fair with everything he does. That's an extremely important quality to have for any HC member This is a longer reply, but everything I've stated is the truth. I wish you the best of luck, Mann!

+support he killed me smh but ye he did mass rdm i can do this if it helps

+/- support He clearly shows ill intent towards Diz but I do think that the 3 week ban on him is to harsh/too long, I +support shortening the ban but not fully removing the ban. -The catwalk jump is more of a verbal warning then a warn -The encouraging suicide part should have at least a few consequences (Deserves at least some sort of ban)

What are you suggesting? - Players who are actively in a combat situation ("Combat Situation" follows the same definition as "Active Shootout" in the Combat Healing rules) should not be allowed to use unrealistic movement in order to gain themselves an advantage in said situation. Players should have to think about their movement, use cover, and not just blindly bum-rush while spamming crouch or crouch jumping to get kills. This wouldn't ban crouching in a combat situation, but spamming crouch, crouch jumping, or generally unrealistic movement shouldn't be allowed while in combat. How would this change better the server? - Combat would become generally more fun for those who are more interested in actually using their brain. Someone has to actually use cover and make smarter plays than just running out and crouch spamming around the target so that they can't hit them. Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. - This would make it even more difficult for D-Class to escape (If you can consider this a disadvantage). Who would this change mostly benefit? - Roleplayers, and a large amount of Combatants, basically everyone but D-Class. Please link any workshop content, screenshots, or anything that you think may be helpful to those who view this suggestion - N/A
