M36's Death Trooper Vice Commander Application

[Firekirby]

1. What is your IGN? (In Game Name) :

DT M36

2. What Regiment are you applying for?

Death Troopers

3. Why do you want to be a commander of this branch?

I have found so much appreciation in how this battalion operates, as well as the people in it. The discipline and hard work required to be a member of Death Troopers makes the experience so engaging and rewarding. I got on this server one random night and saw a Death Trooper selection advert in chat, and had NO idea that I would find newfound love in Garry's Mod again. I literally only play this game for this regiment and what it is. I've poured my heart and soul into this regiment, and it has brought me immense joy. My growth has been facilitated by some of the long-lasting members still in this battalion, as well as those who have moved up into NHC and bigger things. Being Vice Commander of Death Troopers would really only be the icing on the cake. Something stuck out to me when I read a Darth Vader application that was underlined, lasting changes. THIS is why I want to be a Death Trooper Vice Commander. I want to constantly be improving our SOP as well as sub-branch functions within DT, and having been a member of both and still being a member of one sub-branch, I know how they operate already and have so many ideas. I will ensure all members are being respectful and using teamwork, as well as interacting with other regiments, recognizing their importance to the server, and becoming friends with them. I also want to be a Vice Commander because I am NOT hesitant to speak out against someone who is disrespectful or disobeying rules, I will take action accordingly and want to make sure incidents like this are minimal to none. This battalion is such a nice escape from everything going on in the real world, and the people in it make it such an amazing place to hang out, and I want it to stay that way. I genuinely just want to see the Death Trooper regiment be the best it can be, and make sure everyone in it is happy and enjoying the experience. I want to represent this battalion to my utmost capability, and believe my time, dedication, and respect to this regiment and fellow members would allow me to be a Vice Commander that DT and other members of GL can look up to and talk to. I will ensure that this battalion thrives no matter what, and there is absolutely nowhere I'd rather be than in DT, it means everything to me.

4. How much game time do you have on the server?

With about 5 months since I've joined the server, I've put in 1,072 hours, which is over a month of in-game time, and if you look at the past 3 months you can see that my activity is consistent, besides a couple LOAs I took for vacation time.

5. What is the Main Purpose of a commander for a branch?

The main purpose of a commander, for any branch on the server, is to be an example and model of what that said regiment should represent. Death Troopers are a very serious and disciplined battalion, which means the reputation lies in a very delicate balance, and commanders in this position must be very capable and competent in their role. Any mistake made by a commander is noticed by everyone and directly reflects on you and your troopers, and everything you say and do is monitored; as a result this position must only be held by a select few who HC deems worthy to have. Vice Commanders of Death Troopers are to supervise COL and below, and must be there to assist the Commander and/or Senior Commander with Death Trooper operations and oversee the battalion's status. Vice Commanders should also be making sure that any issues Officers cannot handle are dealt with accordingly, and they are also dealing with the paperwork side of things; roster updates as well as suggestions for the betterment of the battalion. Despite the paperwork side of things, Death Trooper Vice Command still MUST be active on the server and should monitor and lead the battalion. However, leading alone is not enough. Death Trooper Vice Commanders need to show OTHERS how to lead, so that one day they can be in a place where they can become a Vice Commander or Command Officer themselves. By the same token, Vice Commanders of Death Troopers are able to strike Death Trooper members and remove people from the battalion if needed, while, on the flip-side, also are able to promote to Command Officer and reward those in Death Troopers with reserves, which means a Death Trooper Vice Commander must use extreme care when punishing or rewarding. In addition to this, a Vice Commander of Death Troopers should know how to communicate effectively with members to make sure there is a bridge between Command Team and the rest of DT, and there should NOT be disconnect between the two. It's a role with a lot of power and responsibility, and someone in this role must be representing the best of their battalion at all times. 

6. Why should we trust you to be a commander? :

I believe there are many reasons why I can be entrusted to this position of Death Trooper Vice Commander. I have a commitment to being and continuing to be as unbiased as possible in all scenarios; I always look at situations objectively and ask myself if the rules, either outlined in our SOP or just general server-wide rules, are being followed at all times by fellow members of DT, no matter who they are. I lead by example and make sure that I am doing the same, I never minge as a member of GL and make sure I am remaining respectful and kind to everyone around me, as well as speak out regarding any Death Trooper breaking the SOP rules or server rules. If I see rules being broken, I will talk to said Death Trooper on the side, giving PT or striking if only absolutely necessary, or route up further concerns. I NEVER have, and NEVER will abuse the power given to me as a Death Trooper, and I've never received a strike. On the other hand, I make sure to promote any Death Trooper that I see exceeding in their roles and reward them. As a result, I believe I have earned the trust of fellow Death Trooper members and have made many, many friends on my time here on ImperialRP from people in other regiments, and due to this, I have a good reputation on the server. I always make myself open to fellow Death Troopers, or really anyone on ImperialRP in DMs and also make sure that everyone is staying on top of quota and active, ensuring success for my battalion and improving the well-being of those around me. I forward any ideas or concerns by others to DT Command to make sure everyone's voices are heard. Furthermore, I am constantly topping quota, but make sure that I am coming up with creative ideas for trainings and simulations, and also making sure that I am not taking away from anyone else's quota or boring fellow troops out. Some examples, when the new map came out, I saw that Tatooine would be a perfect spot for VIP escort, as the hills could be used for a enemy combatant, and we have had many enjoyable SIMs from this as a result. On a similar note, I came up with spots to use in SIM room for trigger action and also pinpointing, a type of training created by me where you try to hit someone as many times as you can in one magazine, with the DT with the most hits being the winner of the SIM. As a GM, I have also come up with multiple dupes for Death Troopers, including a massive CQC dupe when I saw that we did not really have a great place to practice CQC (bridge constantly has Naval personnel, making it harder to practice there), and a Pandora dupe used for tryouts, which took a lot of effort to make and it has received really positive feedback, which shows dedication to my branch. Being a GM has also allowed me to help with many, many tryouts and SIMs hosted by fellow DT members. In addition, I contribute to my battalion frequently in terms of suggestions, for example I currently have a TI-23 doc in the works that would make the sub-branch more engaging (got recognition and praise from Palpatine himself), and also got the Booster Bacta Kit HP/Second doubled, which is very important for DT's M36 role in TI-23 as well as the 69th Medical Corps as a whole. My activity as a Death Trooper is consistent and you wouldn't have to worry about me going away anytime soon. Lastly, I believe I can be trusted as a Death Trooper Vice Commander because my decisions and character are already trusted; I have earned the Death Trooper Regulation Officer position, which is highly sought after and means I am trusted by the DT Command Team, as well as NHC. This position allows me to strike if I have to, which exemplifies this trust. I work closely with NHC and the DT Command Team already when it comes to battalion matters, and this ensures that a transition from DT Command Officer to DT Vice Commander would be smooth. I have learned so much in the past 4 (almost 5) months as a DT and believe I am knowledgeable in every aspect about this battalion, and I constantly lead on the battlefield and in day-to-day duties. I can be trusted as a Vice Commander because there is nothing more I want than the success of my regiment in all facets, and I believe I would be the perfect fit for this position. 

7. How often can you be Online? :

I can guarantee 5-6 hours of playtime almost everyday, however a lot of days I go way over this estimate. I am on PST.

8. Do you have any Warnings? (What for?) :

I have no warnings across all GL servers.

Extra note:

 Thank you so much for even considering me for this position. There have been so many amazing people from DT (both past and present) and other battalions on the server who have provided me guidance, inspiration, and someone to look up to. I couldn't have gotten to this point without you guys.

M36 is a crucial part of this battalion and suffice to say I don't think DT would be half of what it is without him. He is always friendly and approachable and the wisdom he imparts is always useful. In my time in DT I've learned a lot from M36 among others and think that he deserves the chance to join DT command. I can't think of many other people more qualified for this position as well. The application is very well written and outlines what he hopes to improve and work on.

M36 has been a mature and level headed member within DT since the day I have met them. From seeing him both be a Seeker and Ti-23 member, he has shown due diligence for both his role within both sub-branches. I see him learn more and more everyday and is definitely a strong leader with strong beliefs. M36 is currently one of our Regulations Officer that are hand-picked positions and entrusted with punishing members above and below them in any case seen necessary. Since the addition of this role to Death Troopers, he has fit the slot exceptionally along with his partner. M36 would be an amazing candidate for Vice Commander.
