The purpose of a Gunnery Officer on ground events is to fulfill the role of a Regimental Engineer, meaning building props to defend our troops and hacking terminals. At this time, the Gunnery Officers cannot do that. The detonator is to be added for ground events and tryouts to place it down so it can be defused by the trainee.

Do you believe these changes are fair to the battalion/job role it is responsible for and will benefit the server, if so, why?: These changes are fair because it helps the Gunnery Officers become what they are supposed to be on off-map and off-ship events, being Regimental Engineers. These changes will add more roleplay to the job and can also help the Gamemasters since we wouldn’t need to call them to place detonators for tryouts anymore. -These changes were approved by Naval High Command (High Admiral Mann)-

So the weekend has passed. I guess it is as good time as any for a response. Some introductory points: - Yes, I will admit. I was way over my head in writing this report. - Yes, I did expect this report to receive mostly negative response but at the same time there was a purpose to this report that I will cover. - Yes, I believe Coltable does really well as a Manager and has been one of the best. But there is an asterisk to that in my mind. So to begin, I believe the bullets of this report was overlooked and missed with responses that picked on a part that I miswrote or puts all the blame onto finals. The whole P008 thing was not the best example or a point well written. I'll take the blame on that one but I do not believe it should discredit the report in its entirety. The blame on finals is a catalyst, not a result. There are ways to handle which initially the steps were taken correctly at first but then the rest wasn't which is one of the reasons we are here. To those that gave the report a look in its entirety, thank you. Even if it was negative, it gave a perspective I can respect. Continuing, I did not and am not asking for the world and for Coltable to be god. I understand there are limitation especially in a game running on a decrepit engine. At no point did I ask for everything to be implemented in a snap. I am asking for better communication in general. There was serious missteps in communication that created frustration, confusion, and decrease in confidence. Security is a very extreme example of where things began falling apart. Yes, this about the HIRU job. In long summary, this was a little bit after the rejection of the D-Class Weapon Cache raid system and Juggarnaut H.U.L.K. (which the community rejected, we accepted that loss and it was a heavy one with months of preparation and some cash down the drain) Link for those unaware: https://gaminglight.com/forums/topic/88909-security-branch-update-4222-completed/ Coltable himself worked with Security on a replacement job which spawned the HIRU. He personnaly brought the job to us to vote on 4/11/22. This job also included a weapon which he asked us about and overwhelmingly convinced us it was all good. We voted 7 - 0 with small skepticism but point stands. Updates were asked for this job on multiple occasions in Site Admin channels. Coltable was pinged on some of those occassions and no reponse was received (at one point on the same day he responded to something completely different 3 hours apart). Also during this period, other proposals were brought to us to vote on as well while this one was approved and sitting. At one point, Security High Command came to me personally about someone had told them that Site Admin wasn't onboard. That was what got me very heated because I had to be the one to sit in front of them and say otherwise. It wasn't until 5/21/22 that we were finally given word by Chief then later Coltable, that the job was being held in a turnaround of opinion. While I am not hard pressed about the turn of opinion, it hurts to see just a few sentences take so long and couldn't even be brought to Security personally considering it was his development. It had to be delivered by proxy which caused some hurt. While Coltable may come in and say he did eventually meet with High Command to smooth it out, it is the principle of the issue. I had also gotten other anecdotes that some branch high command were not responded to regarding their branch updates. Namely, Research had been trying for a month to DM Coltable AND Jayden for something. CI R&D had been particularly unhappy with the lack communication thus far with their attempts. Way before those and Security's thing, Medical's attempts at any response to their suggestions and addons went blank. While they finally got their stuff out and approved, it took longer than necessary and Medical Low Command had a mini uprising for literally any changes to happen which we just couldn't. Which brings us to a point that was very clearly marked on this report: "Neglect/Favoritism to certain Branches". And by extension, quote GarGar over here... Have you consider asking why I wouldn't reach out to those individuals? My bad for lumping all of you together as this is more geared to the branches that did not receive that bulk of the attention, love, and care. MTF and CI Military, I will not sugar coat it. You guys are getting the world that the other branches tend to not receive. I don't hold ill will against you all. And it is completely understandable of your -Supports because you guys don't see what some of us see. I just wish us over here on the other side had the same. So my final words. With understanding that the report will be denied, and I will accept that whole-heartedly. Even the playing field, communicate better with your High Command and Site Admin (which is already improving), and give them a fighting chance or denial so we can move on. Even if the response is "I'll get back to you, I got you on queue". It means a heck of a lot more than no response at all.

+support As a GM and a RE I see both sides sorta, when IC is lacking its RE's job to clear the droppods and obstructions, Gunnery is RE's close relative on the server and they have access to the documents for explosives and hacking (i think)

+ Support to this This is my second run as a Gunnery Officer and we have never had the tools needed for us to properly do our job. I've been in events with very few RE and I couldn't do any of the hacking because I didnt have the tools. Every other specialty in Navy gets the tools of their respective regiment i.e., Security Officers have the proper arrest devices, medical officers have medical tools, etc. Please add this to GO

I am quoting this quote of a post on the gaminglight forms. This post is in the general section of Imperial RP on the forums. I voted "I do support" on the poll connected to this post as I am an Imperial RP player! Thanks for reading my reply to the forums post!

You made a whole essay post complaining about the state of the server, then throw this here. That's ludicrous. D-class is the fucking back bone of the whole role-play aspect of the server. Research will get extremely boring without d-class. Interacting with a live person during a test is what keeps things fresh. Gensec would literally just be just as boring as d-class. MTF would ONLY just be fighting SCP and CI 90% of the time since probably no one will wanna play on d-class since its just standing around. This will result in constant self breaching. CI would only be breaching stuff (If they haven't been breached already due to reason above). Maintenance would probably not change much tbh. Don't complain about server state and give the worse suggestion to try to fix it.

+Support Manjini has been nothing but a plague on this community and his actions have harmed the community and its members. He single-handedly put SF on a crash course towards failure all while proclaiming to be the best. After his SF antics he joined Naval and did nothing but cause trouble for them as well. Spouting your political beliefs and actively +/- supporting members that are going into command positions because of the political alignment is fucking childish.

To the Citizen's of Rockford, IL: Declaration Of War Shadow Legacy June 1, 2022 A week ago is the date that the Shadow Legacy crime family was deliberately attacked by the Fazoli and Soprano crime family. The Soprano and Fazoli crime family has overstepped their boundaries. Shadow Legacy has called upon their allies to retaliate against their hostile actions. Officially tonight at 12am Shadow Legacy will have declared war against the Soprano family. The Umbrella Corporation, Scythes of Paradise syndicate, and the Shadow Legacy crime family will assume an alliance against the Soprano and Fazoli crime families. This month the Soprano family has disrespected SL family members. This night the Soprano family spread propaganda that SL is worse. This night the Soprano family attempted to take the life of SL’s Underboss. This month the Fazoli family has targeted SL by forming an alliance against SL. This month the Fazoli family disrespected Shadow Legacy members. Trumpo & David called upon their allies because Shadow Legacy was attacked unprovoked. “The Soprano and Fazoli crime families will find their death to be a swift one as you have the full might of 3 powerful families on your back. You have decided to fuck around and find out, so your death will be our gift as our business is life itself.” -UMC, SYP, & SL ~ Trumpo, Shadow Legacy Owner (Posting on behalf of SL Management, UMC Management, and SYP Management) *Credit to SL David for writing this masterpiece* *Credit to Will UMC for being the graphic designer*

I Am Posting On The Fourms. This Is In The General Section Of The Gaming Light Imperal RP Fourms. Thank You For Reading My Fourms Post

Name: Kovic Warden Name: Tiberius Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:5994124 Rank: LTCOL What needs to be updated: Resigning Unfortunately I've lost interest with GamingLight for the time being. I was never any good at saying goodbye. I've learned a lot in my time here, and I hope I've helped others learn a lot too. I know I haven't been the easiest person to get along with, but ultimately it came from a place of passion, not malice. I always tried to do the right thing by every position I held and every person who put their trust in me. So the right thing to do is to vacate this position and give others a chance to grow.

+ Support Without the tools that a RE uses, how can a GO properly lead the RE? They are supposed to do similar jobs, and GO is supposed to help "lead" RE, yet dont even get the tools to hack. Not to mention, RE is kind of hard to find in an event, the closest you get is the IC (which at the moment can barely be compared to GO due to the fact that GO is severely lacking). As a trial GO, one of the first things i noticed was how different and lacking the loadout was (plus the neglect of the website, though thats off topic). This would strengthen the GO role in so many ways and bring back the competition to get in! Medical is always full, yet it seems like a struggle to keep people in GO, which is very sad. This would be SO helpful to Gunnery!! Please make this happen! They do, yet they dont even get the tools to hack or use/defuse explosives! How silly is that?

Denied. After many discussions regarding this report, We have decided to deny this ban request. The issues here all involves RP, none are bannable offenses. There is a lack of conclusive evidence as everything here has occurred outside of GL and is not something that would be handled within staff.

So right now the biggest issue in the community is the lack of roleplay, Please tell me how allowing players to play rap music etc will improve roleplay and not just allow for more causal darkrp gaming, and move is further from roleplay.

In Progress!

Your In-Game Name: Mike Ehrmantraut Soprano Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:99020415 Staff member's In-Game Name: Jack Ling What did they do? I know this will not go through due to a lack of evidence. I said Ecott was laundering money as a joke, Jack Ling cited my 1+-year-old player diss warns as proof of being a repeating offender, then warned me without letting me speak to Ecott. I'm sorry that I offended Ecott with this statement. I had no ill intent or serious implication behind it. Evidence (REQUIRED): None because I got console banned for reaching the warn limit as soon as it happened. What do you think is an acceptable punishment? I believe that II should've been given a chance to speak to Ecott and apologize or work things out since he had not brought any concerns about the remark to my attention before calling an admin. Instead, the sit lasted 20 seconds where I did not get to speak to Ecott and was warned for player diss.

Probably dependent on what browser you use then, with Microsoft edge it automatically expands them and finds it.

-Support While I like the concept, in action it would be a nightmare if enforced. Here’s my concerns: - Class-D go to armory, buy a AR/Sniper/LMG/etc. surrender then go to D-Block. They then massacre Security. - Class-D pretend to surrender then kill us as we try to arrest them. - Difficult to prove if someone was KOS during staff sits, which would be a common occurrence with this addition. - As I’ve seen mentioned, RP only exists with consent, and Class-D hardly ever attempt to RP. Forcing my branch to RP with them while they don’t need to makes zero sense. With that said, I’d consider the following: - Encourage cuffing Class-D. I can do my part to push for this. - There would be exceptions such as running from us when we are clearly trying to make an arrest. Obviously there are more but I won’t list them for times sake. - Give Security a weapon check/strip swep. Class-D who wish to RP can place their hands up as we strip them of their weapons or check if they have them. We can then ensure they have no weapons as we return them to D-Block. However, CCs would probably rather go down fighting than consent to being stripped.

It's funny, if you look back at the original request to add 1424 to the server, the OP asked that 1424 be a safe class SCP and specifically asked as part of the request: Either the Admins just missed this part of the request when adding the SWEP, or used their discretion to keep it in, regardless - use of the Bite SWEP needs to be clarified or removed.

^^^^ Warnings can also be given to people who disobey your order (Stand Still, Warning 1, Warning 2 etc etc) and on like the 2nd or 3rd warning u can kill then.

So you're saying forcing RP on people who are in SCP roleplay server is too far? This server has too many just shoot them things. People will never start to RP if we just keep them like this and never enforce anything. The problem is its always easier to just shoot so if we just encourage it people will always look for a way around to just shoot them all.

wrong he wont be missed dawg

This man bugged me to join medical so much, so glad he's gone (On a real note though) This guy was one of if not the MOST active medical command and actively tried to improve on the branch. You will be missed, have fun in d5 ya nerd o7

FINALLY

Thank you for giving me some criticism, I am trying my best to be more active and to be a good leader, i appreciate it:D

Two wrongs don't make a right here, if you broke a rule trying to stop somebody that was breaking the rules it doesn't make the warn false

shouldnt really be having a class 3 in prosecutor or defendant anyways and killing someone too if there was minging going on you shouldve called staff and not taken it into your own hands

looks comfortable tbh (the couch one)

+ Support +Indeed he was an 1LT in 2021 +as his higher up at that time he did a good job and i think he can do the same now +activity +know what he is doing -can be a bit none serious but attemts to make it more fun

lol I'm sure this is probably a bit of a joke, but ctrl+f doesn't work for all instances of "106" unless you expand all menus where the string "106" can be found.

+/-Support He does say the r slur, but from the video he wasn't directing it at you. I'm pretty sure he said "Do I look ******** to you" (* being the slur). A verbal warning should be given.

If you really think so then I guess Jimmy could edit it to add "After dying or being revived by EMS..." +Support I haven't had an issue with somebody being confused about capture point rules but I guess it doesn't hurt.,

-Support Poor aim and lots of crossfire in that clip. Everyone turned their back towards 173 as well, except OP. You all kinda deserved to die there.

My most loyal and dear DHFTO. Welcome to the HFTO graveyard.

Denied. since you got blacklisted guess you no longer need this appeal!

Allow for more of a open discussion, as of now every post that critiques gaminglight someone says ‘Someone’s getting banned.’ That’s quite a toxic environment over a video game. We should be able to critique and discuss what we like and don't like without fear of getting got.

Not going to give a + or - support. All I will say is that after spending months in D-block with D-Class, I can say that there are 2 brands of mic-spammers. Both are incredibly annoying. A: D-Class/Security (can be any rank from OFC->CPT) who play music when there is low activity or energy in D-Block. This is mostly alright as it does not affect rp and people will usually stop if you ask them too. B: This one is like 90% D-Class: Playing repetitive annoying sounds through their soundboard. Its funny the first time you see a D-Class spam youtube poops in vc but after that first time it just makes you want to leave D-Block. I think that ANY micspam is bad and I am personally not a fan of constant audio stimuli. I also think that allowing "people to play a song that includes the N-word" will allow all the brainlets to add a "N-word" button to their soundboard and its a technical loophole for the staff. For those reasons I am not a fan.

People have to choose to RP, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink

-Support for forcing it on them RP cannot be forced. Roleplay is a consent based activity based upon interests and so forcing this on security would be incorrect. Encouraging it should be fine enough which it sounds like Security might be interested in

Gonna lock because nothing new being added and starting to get off topic.

We will not be allowing the use of the Nword in music etc within our server, I will however look into rewording the motd to allowing music/soundboards but players if requested by staff to stop must do so and if ignored will be punished as usual. @Chief_

Nerf class D to hell. Make it nearly impossible to escape as Class D. Don't give them keycards or hackers. Make it so being on class D is boring so they join an actual branch
