SO! I've finally resigned. As most of you can probably tell, I had lost interest in the server a loooong time ago. I stuck around for all the goods friends i made but I neglected most if not all my duties as a member of HCOM. I have a good long history with this server and I hope to see it rise again! I'm gonna remain in staff at least and still have all my reserves. may activate them in the future idk. Shouts outs to: @Bon: been my valentine for 2 years in a row. the most hated brit that i know @Bear_: learned a lot from this WHACK grand general. but a great guy.
@Starch: one of the first friends i made on the server. cant wait till you kill shock!
@Rux: One of the better SMT imperial has had. only good Canadian!
@Theta: Smells terrible and ill be hearing from him in his discord anyways. good friend of mine regardless
@Frog: left me behind so hes no longer valid.
@Zabuza: i had a lot of fun hating you. your an unmatched HCOM member!
@Kio: i hated you sometimes but loved you in others. you for sure knew how to put work in though! wheat: never contact me again.
@Mannplay more games that i can actually play
im missing LOTS of people, but those are the ones off the top of my head. i loved working and playing this game with you all! ill be back soon.
Yall are all only focusing on the smallest of problems. The reason RP doesn't exist on this server ties into the type of command there is on the server. Barely anyone awards people for outstanding RP even in medical/maintenance. The fact of the matter is SCP RP simply chooses mostly terrible leaders for high roles with few exceptions.
Remove D-classes infinite supply of guns.
Dclass are usually the backbone of all forms of Roleplay, if they have a gun. They have no reason to rp cuz they can just shoot things.
I don't wanna blame it all on Dclass but. .
One of the main issues. Is Dclasses lack of actual roleplay, going pew pew and dying instantly and repeating that scenario isn't roleplay.
It also makes it hard for research because the core aspect that research relies on is dclass for testing, if researchers can't test then they'll get bored of the server or just not play research.
Gensec tries to roleplay but everything that isn't a warden, jugg or hcom gets gunned down ny everything under the sun.
Nu7 are checkpoint jockeys now, but our guidelines can get us in trouble if we follow them too strictly due to the powerplay simulator that is hcz checkpoint. And the fact that Nu7 has final say over who enters HCZ unless you're level 4+ sort of . we all have our own restrictions and guidelines we have to follow. not final say but it is our job to monitor who goes in and who goes out.
D5 is also kinda powerplay simulator almost. The code of ethics is roleplay but it gets hectic really fast and it usually ends in confusion or mass chaos. (Not in D5 so i can't say much)
E11 and CI are the most combat based due to surface wars
Simmons, Simmons, Simmons. There's a lot I can say about you, your tenure, and your determination you demonstrated through not only SWAT, but through GamingLight. A leader, a follower, a friend, and a brother, you will always be to me and many others.
Things have been difficult for you, so allow me to send as much energy and strength your way. We'll be here for when you need us.
Godspeed, Jack. Your imprint on SWAT will forever remain.
