Addressing the point you made regarding HP and AP, here's an answer for you. Gensec are supposed to be scaled right under Nu7 HP and AP. There's a whole caste to it that's been around for ages, and an actual sheet that compares and contrasts the branches HP and AP differentials so that we can make sure no branch is abundantly over the other. If Nu7 bumps up their HP and AP, Security does as well. Nu7 bumps based off CI and CI bumps based off E-11. These Security kids are literally supposed to only have a bit less HP than Nu7 in all equivalent or semi equivalent jobs. You said "closer" but that's where we always are, closer, never further because its Gensec's literal right to be close to Nu7 HP AP and it's been that way since ever. Secondly, pardon my French- Negev is basic shit that's been around forever. it's not phenomenal, it's quite literally the same as an Ares, which we already have on jobs. It's the same as any 1500 RPM LMG with the same stats and everything, not to mention Negev is dog anyways now since you can't BHOP spam with it so stop whining. I would take a good shotgun or an AR any day over a Negev which gives crouch speed movement. Farmers aren't "built different", it's just crouch jump spamming and hopping around. If anything, LMG users should be easier for DClass and your Farmers to kill since they can't match the movement of your crouchspam hitbox breaking pogo sticking. Why would people want a strong Gensec? perhaps because of the same reasons you argue that CI needs to be busted as hell, "We have to beat all the branches to get to DBLOCK" Except its easy and Ya'll do it almost every time because guess what, your classes are great, and your players are good. Security loses every time 9/10. Security having the works makes sense, because Surprise! There aren't 3 MTF branches housed on any site in actual SCP lore lmao. Gensec and DBLOCK are the cornerstone of the server, and as a DCLASS MAIN I can say this will make no difference to DCLASS riots because (no offense to the Gensec members) but if you give a monkey a wrench (a negev in this case) Hes still just gonna swing it like an idiot. This update is meager and not a game changer whatsoever, its standard issue. 25 more HP and AP, woah, a whole 3 more bullets needed to mow them down. Nothing will change, no power will shift, DCLASS mains will still rock the shit out of Gensec. Frankly, you obviously have very strong and heartfelt emotions about security, and I don't believe your go ahead and "opinion" would matter in a branch update as small and balancing as this one. Even if we were equal with Nu7 in an alternate universe, CI wouldn't have an issue fighting gensec because our branch is mainly comprised of lousy and weak enlisted and NCO jobs that aren't a threat. The 3 guys playing on a wardens or Jugg job shouldn't be that much of a fear factor for you. I'm just hoping your response wasn't out of a petty idea that Gensec should be weak and not able to contend with the other combat branches. I get it, you want to have fun and mow down new players with a tec-9 on farmer, but even though half of the branch has the brain capacity of a warm banana, the SEC boys still have to deal with a lot. Every breached SCP heads to DBLOCK, all CI raids lead to DBLOCK, all GOI want to make it to LCZ. DClass always riot and custom classes combined with mined guns and armor in large numbers mow through DBLOCK. If you want to kill foundation personnel, LCZ is where you go. Sec is in the thick of it and they deserve to stand as strong as they reasonably can, and this update is more than reasonable.

We understand that everyone has bad days, but in those situations the best thing to do is to just leave the situation. It is never acceptable to attempt to DOX people, or to threaten to do so.

Hello y'all! Quick update on myself, I am doing pretty ok at this point. Still pretty sad about what happened but I am feeling a lot better nowadays. As for me returning to Gaminglight, I will most definitely return sometime in September or October. I hope everyone is doing alright on the server and just want to say congratulations to all the people that got promoted at the ceremony last week!

Battalion Name: Royal Guard Job/Class Name: Saber Guard Model Path: models/player/starwars/mistersweetroll/saberguard.mdl Requested Loadout: Custom Saber: Requesting Dual-Wield sabers (One blade/hilt per hand) Saber Name: Saber Guard’s Blades Hilt: models/swtor/arsenic/lightsabers/grantekf11-dlightsaber.mdl Blade color: Red (255,0,0) Length: 45 Saber Damage: 200 Force Abilities: Force Reflect, Saber Throw, Force Leap, Force Absorb, Force Rage. Cross_arms_infront_swep Cross_arms_swep rw_sw_bino_dark Reason for change (do you think that said weapons is suitable for the job and is fair considering current loadouts of other battalions?): I believe the weapons are appropriate in light of other battalions' loadouts because RG has a similar weaponry setup. The force abilities are true to lore and are mostly used as a Royal Guard anyway. Furthermore, the use of dual wield lightsabers allows for a different playing style than the Royal Guard is accustomed to. It enables the saber guard to be more effective in confined spaces when dealing with a threat to their VIP or mission. Health: 1500 Armor: 0 Reason for health/armor: The reason for the health is that it is 200 HP lower than the Sovereign and 300 HP higher than the Senior Guard. This job's role is to eliminate all hostiles in a small area. The increased HP allows the person on the job to survive longer in close combat against Jedi with high HP. Because it is the same as every other RG job, the armor will be 0. If the class had armor it would be stronger than the Sovereigns. Description (Optional): Saber Guards were among the most fearsome warriors of the Galactic Empire. Do you believe these changes are fair to the battalion/job role it is responsible for and will benefit the server, if so, why?: I believe that these changes to the battalion will benefit the server by attracting more players to the donator battalion and making the battalion more active on the server because there is now a new goal and role to strive for. The Saber Guard will be a difficult sub branch to join, with only 5 members. Saber Guard will be the best that RG has to offer, representing the battalion to everyone. These battalion changes will allow RG to have a different duty on the ground and on the ship while still being recognised as the efficient killers that we are. Requested Job Slots: 5

+ Support + Great Person + Well Know + Follows Rules + Good application

I wasnt aware of that, Ill remove my comment

Don't get me wrong. I love FBI and HRT. Absolutely no bias at all. Nothing to do with the fact I formed both things anywho. With my involvements IRL and my doings with another server. I am unable to make the time for FBI or HRT while being in SRT at the same time. The fact im even apart of FBI or HRT right now in the first place is mind blowing to me and I feel like I dont deserve it. I appreciate what command did for me to get me here. I wish everyone luch in the future and who knows. You may see kme back in in the future when I have time. That being said. Its been real.

+Support Yes

I think this is very cool!

+Support Pretty sure he was in ET, had no bad experiences with this man and is trusted with senior admin sooo why not?

How come everytime I look at a new Gensec Update they're closer to having Nu7 Hp. Tanks or whatever you guys are still Gensec, if people want to be beefy and have good guns just join nu7 no need to make a bootleg Task Force. Definitely no. I just don't see much need to this much power, you guys already 3 tap every d-class except Farmers cause they're built different, every branch update you get closer and closer to a task force and I don't really think that's what gensec's supposed to be. Not to mention you guys only went over with a few branches only after posting the branch update and with some branches you didn't go over with them at all, not nice gotta say. Getting opinion from someone that was in Gensec defeats the whole purpose of feedback doesn't it. -Support

Bal 27 has worse stats than the m4 iron what are you guys on about

wdym pressing buttons? I never pressed any buttons, all was jacky. I was told to make one aswell. I always ask if its a viable reason to report them for staff. and the admin said yes, and what did I do? I made one.

+SUPPORT Coolio, also, some comments. That's how it should be and was intended to be with the nerfs to D-Class via reworking D-Block. D-Class are death row inmates in a top-secret facility protected by highly trained operatives, not highly elite spies against stormtroopers. 3 things here. 1. We can't just "get creative" with defenses, we already use barricades, firing lines to an extent, and protocols to coordinate. Additionally, any "formation", regardless of branch, quickly crumbles unless it's an SF or extremely coordinated (which GENSEC isn't, especially because most of the new players flock to GENSEC or another "starting branch"). A firing line simply isn't realistic when getting rushed by a bunch of CC's, especially when they utilize janky movement mechanics. 2. Doing more hands up procedures requires less rioting, or moreover a better ability to control rioting, which means more buffs for Security in D-Block. The whole purpose of the new d-block was to severely nerf D-Class for now, at-least until the map update (where, to be honest, D-Class will most likely get nerfed even more). 3. Different ideas for classes? What would we do? A cross-branch maintenance job seems unlikely as it would just be a copy of CE/FE and if you could provide any ideas on how we could make that unique I'd be free. We have a cross-branch Medical job (CCU), we have Wardens and Juggernauts and fast classes and slow classes. It's also EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to get new jobs for GENSEC. Trying to get a new, completely unique job for security is simply unfeasible, however we're down for suggestions. Mustard Gas is EXTREMELY restrictive, and requires COL+ with Superadmin+ perms to authorize it. Additionally, it's only used in the most extreme of situations (Full/Magnetic Lockdown). I don't see how this would significantly affect D-Class. Partial's are necessary because of the constant rioting that D-Block faces when CC's are on. We don't have partial nearly as much as previously, which is a good thing, but it's not our fault for just doing our job and calling protocols when rioting occurs, blame it on the rioters. Of course, D-Class should be able to have fun and have an opportunity to escape, but if a brand new player gets killed during Partial, don't blame it on GENSEC. It's also extremely difficult to fight D-Class CC's outside of a partial lockdown due to the extreme rubberbanding and lag issues of the server. I definitely don't have a top tier NASA computer but I think I shouldn't be getting 20 frames in D-Block. We have the adequate firepower, yes, but it doesn't work out when CC's use janky movement mechanics (I.E. Bunny-hopping / Crouch Jumping), while this is to be expected, combined with the extreme lag on the server, it's extremely difficult to fight against. GENSEC also can't and wouldn't be able to handle CI raids on its own, it typically takes multiple waves of Security and help from MTF to deal with a CI Raid.

Couple things I'll comment: - Brute was supposed to get the heavy shield last branch update but it was overlooked when SMT did the update (see proof below). We decided to wait until this update as it is a minor change. I'd also add the whole reason we got the shields was when I added them for Security. https://gyazo.com/f0a3e0eb502fbe9240a1368d5b2619cb - Bal27 is not as good as it once was. HSU (now HTF) dumped the gun when it got nerfed for the ACOG. - Nowhere on this update does this say that Security will be getting mustard gas. The reason the masks are being added is because many of our super admin+ forget to spawn them in when we request the gas.

+Support I think light does have the expernce to become and officer in IQ. From what I can tell he trys to help other member and trys to help anyway possible

Question. How does it only benefit the server owners? Higher average players, higher rankings. Which then translates into more players for you guys to play with (imagine playing on a server with only 10 people active at all times lol not too fun). More players then translate into more donations for the community. And you know what that translates to? You guessed it! A higher operating budget for us to make improvements, develop the server further, and keep the amazing server that you love. Look at the bigger picture.

Did Nenea make this? You're getting a lot of -support. Honestly this needs work. Agreeing with what many are saying, I don't think you guys need to buff the living hell out of juggs. If you feel that weak, hold more PTs and strategize more because you guys have plenty of resources currently to hold off well. Activity is your biggest issue but the jobs are there. -support if i really need to make that clear.

You locked people out of the Bridge...what did you expect? -support

So let me get this right.... You and the ST failrp'd by going onto bridfe, pressed buttons on bridge, and got froze for it(self explainatory)... -support Also, to jacky: You should note that doing things like that on the ST job can affect how you are seen in other battalions, and that includes as staff/gm. You should know better.

+ Support + Worked and fixed application + Has previous Experience

-support As someone who has interacted with KitChan a lot in the past (we both were in Navy at the same time for a while), I found them to be demeaning, rude, manipulative and also to express many controversial and often discriminatory views when believing we were behind closed doors. I will, of course, admit that I haven't interacted with them for a while, especially as I've been absent from the community, however I still distinctly recall many, many negative interactions and I'm surprised they've managed to reach the position they're in.

Huge - Support I don't know why you keep making Admin reports, ur the one Minging. This time it's getting really Stupid, Also just letting you know maybe you shouldnt throw another Staff Member under the Bus for Minging as well. In all Honesty you should probably stop Reporting Admins for no reason or you may get banned on the Forums. (You Should be warn for FailRP as well)

I mean to be fair in the clip he didn’t press the button I think a simple staff arrest would have been ok and then it’s over with. Don’t see how you were abused though he was probably freezing you to open bridge then arrest you but instead he let you go, so if anything you got off easy in my opinion. -Support

In-Game Name: Fleet Admiral Gallius Rax (known as Crunch) Steam Name: [GL] sage SteamID: STEAM_0:1:49540812 What is your discord username (Ex: Jayden#9452): sage#0909 What is your staff rank in Gaminglight? Admin and Senior Forum Diplomat How often are you on Teamspeak? Nearly everyday for 5+ hours at a time (minimum) How often do you use Discord? Anytime I am not asleep or busy. I often have to check it for in RP things and am extremely responsive in it. Why would you like to be a member of the Support Team? (150 word minimum)? I would like to become a member of the Support Team in order to assist others as any of our servers can be very daunting and asking for assistance can be scary for new members. Often time when people join the server and request help either in OOC, Discord, or Teamspeak they hesitate asking anything in fear of being ridiculed or being treated like an idiot. I wish to eliminate that and let newcomers and established members of the community know that asking for assistance in any capacity is okay and there are people present and willing to assist them until they full grasp what that need help with. Furthermore, I wish to gain more experience with members of the other servers and -- with my help -- inspire others to either apply for staff or just be a good member of the community and help newer community members. How would you greet someone that has a problem in one of our tickets, or support channels? First and foremost I would welcome them into the channel, let them know that their ticket has been taken and make sure they know where they are as to avoid confusion. I would then ask them to explain their issue or situation and let them explain it fully. Once I believe I understand everything, I would reiterate the problem to let them know I understand their issues and then apologize for them having said issues. I would then take the necessary steps in order to help them with their problem. Afterwards, I would tell them that I am happy to help and make sure they have no other problems. Before moving out I would wish them a good day and let them know that I will be closing the ticket or moving them to the appropriate channel.
