In-game name(s): CG ARC Colonel Marko Steam Name: Marko Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:71465718 Age when applying: 18 What country do you currently reside in? What is your time-zone?: Sweden | GMT+1 Can you speak and type English fluently?: Yes Current total game-time on the server: 2 weeks and 2 days. IC Rank(s) and OOC Donation Rank(s) on SW-RP: CG ARC Colonel | Platinum VIP Do you own a working microphone? When you communicate do you type or speak?: I have a working microphone and I usually speak when communicating, I type when needed. When did you join the server? Have you taken any breaks since?: I joined on the 19th of January 2021, haven't taken any breaks since. How often do you use our Teamspeak 3 server, SW-RP Discord and our forums: I use all three of them on a daily basis. State all your previous OOC punishments (bans, kicks etc.) and a screenshot of your list of warns: 0 warns, 0 kicks and 0 bans. https://imgur.com/a/kSS6w2G State the role of staff on the server: To me, the role of a staff member is partly to be a good role model by following and enforcing the rules. Their job is also to prioritize others before themselves by actively taking claims and making sure that everyone is having fun. Everything from dealing with rule breakers to helping anyone who needs it. Have you read the server rules and are you familiar with them?: I've read them multiple times so I am familiar with them. List of all previous server staff experience: A few years back when I got most of my time on gmod I had the experience of staffing on a few medium-sized DarkRP servers and one SWRP server. Therefore I'm quite familiar with how to act as a staff member and how to use commands/ULX. Do you understand that you can be demoted at anytime with a sufficient reason by a Hierarchy member?: Yes Explain how you would handle these scenarios as a staff member: 1 ) You are told by a Player that somebody is randomly killing other clones: If the Player used the @ feature, I would teleport to him after taking the claim. I would then proceed to ask him if he knew the name of the player killing other clones as this is usually faster than checking the logs. If the person didn't know the name I would check the logs for anyone who has killed or dealt damage recently. After that, I would teleport to the player, whether his name was given or I found out via logs, and spectate in cloak. If he is still killing people I would teleport him to an area far away from everyone else right away. Otherwise, I would spectate for a while to get an understanding of what is going on and see if he planned on killing anyone else. I would then bring him to a sit. After checking the logs one last time to find out exactly what he has done I would explain to him what rules he has broken and give him the appropriate punishment. If he killed/attempted to kill 1 person I would just warn. But as stated in the question he most likely killed multiple people, which means I would either warn + kick him for RDM x2 or ban him for (attempted) MRDM if 3+ people. With a punishment of 5 days ban + 1 extra day for each person after the initial 3. I would also be ready in case he LTAPs. 2 ) You are asked by a Cadet to be trained using the @ function: I would go to him and let him know that a trainer will be there shortly. I would make sure that he has asked for a trainer in advert and then proceed to contact a battalion and ask them to send an NCO+ to the cadet area. If that doesn't work, however very unlikely, I would find an NCO+ (starting with the lowest NCO/Drill) that is available to train the cadet and bring him to the cadet area and tell him to train the cadet. 3 ) During a debrief, a CT accidently shoots someone, whilst trying to safety their weapon: Since this is an IC matter I would let CG handle it as a case of Golden Rule. I would keep an eye on the CT for a while and after the debrief/if he is taken away by CG I'd let him know how to put the safety on and tell him that it's probably a better idea to have his keys out to prevent something similar from happening again. 4 ) A CT #### doesn't salute you, despite you being a rank higher than 2nd LT: As a staff member, no OOC actions or warnings are needed. In character, I would kindly remind him that he is supposed to salute anyone that is 2nd LT and above. 5 ) Someone commits FailRP, but claims that the specific instance of FailRP is not explicitally stated within the server rules: I would tell him that it's very hard to state all the instances of FailRP in the rules and that he has to stay in character no matter what, therefor by doing anything that a clone (or whatever role he has) wouldn't do could be warnable for FailRP. Then I'll tell him to use initiative and let him know that trying to find any loopholes in the rules will lead to him getting a harsher punishment. 6 ) You bring a player into a sit and punish them accordingly, however they do not agree with your punishment and keep on arguing: I would hear him out first. Then I would let him know that I would never hand out a punishment if I wasn't completely sure of it since I would listen to all sides of the story before doing so. I would simply ask him to make a post on the forums if he is unhappy with his given punishment. Explain in length and detail as to why you deserve staff more than other applicants. Explain what you will bring to the staff team and your strongest assets as a person/potential staff member: I would start off by saying that I'm active, positive, and mature but I don't think that's what makes me stand out the most amongst the other applicants. The reason why I joined CG was mainly because I've always been the kind of person that genuinely enjoys helping others and gets enjoyment out of helping others and putting others before myself. As a CG I hope to make sure that misbehaving clones get punished accordingly and by doing that making the server more enjoyable. I believe that as a staff member with this attitude I can contribute to a better environment not only IC but also OOC. As a member of CG, I believe I've gained experience that others might not have, already dealing with IC rulebreakers on a daily basis. I've learned how to deal with situations fairly and effectively and I would say that knowing the IC rules inside out will help me dealing with hard situations that might occur where a line between IC matters and OOC matters has to be drawn. I also think that as CG has been my only regiment, that hopefully shows that I'm dedicated, which I would also be as a staff member. I realize that my relatively low playtime might make people see me as inexperienced, but I'd say in a way having only 2 months on the server could be seen as a good thing. Having achieved the rank of CG SO and ARC within 2 months on the server shows that I both have the experience and trust needed. This also shows that I'm driven and ambitious when it comes to putting in the time needed to learn whatever I need to know. I enjoy learning new stuff and I always strive to better myself. I embrace failure and think that the best way of learning is through experience and getting feedback from whatever mistakes one may make. This attitude has, at least so far in my life, made it possible to quickly pick things up and improve in a way where I don't get burnt out, meaning that even though as a staff member I might have to deal with difficult situations, I would always try to improve, adapt and learn. I'd also like to add that I'm aware of the fact that my rank might not be the highest compared to other applicants, but I believe that this will give me the opportunity to focus more on taking claims and learning everything that a staff needs to know that I might not already know, which would be useful especially during my initial time as staff. Past experience in both gmod but also as a staff member have given me the knowledge of how to handle difficult situations and even though it has been a while I'll most likely quickly pick up whatever small amount of knowledge I might have forgotten regarding commands and such. Lastly I'd also say that my previous experience in gmod and as staff plus my experience in CG has made me very unbiased and I would say that im good at dealing with people, getting to do so daily as a CG, which means that no matter what I might encounter I'll always be neutral and friendly towards everyone. Thank you for reading!

What your suggestion is: Give CG access to dropship, probably in a similar way to how 501st gets it. Scriptfodder/workshop link: N/AAny additional information: There is a lot of lore about Shock Troopers/Coruscant Guard having access to it. I know even though things exist in the lore, they aren't necessarily balanced to implement ingame, but in this case it makes sense and there are multiple uses for it as stated below. Used for searches/patrol craft, eg whenever clones have left MB. As CG is a regiment that should assist wherever needed (for example when DU is lacking CG places barricades) having a dropship can help them do so if CE is lacking. As CG doesn't fill one specific role in events, there would be time for CG hierarchy to help in those cases when transports are lacking. When CG for example stays behind in MB (sometimes with DU, but usually DU is needed in the frontlines to put up barricades) and other regiments are pushing, a dropship would be useful to help CG get to the frontlines faster if they are no longer needed in MB, which has happened quite a lot. Also taking with them any troopers that have respawned and don't have CE transport. Used for prisoner/VIP escorts. CG used to have access to speeders but they weren't too useful since they were limited when it came to escorting people, which was one of their primary goals. With dropships CG could first of all transport more prisoners/VIP(s) since there is more room in a dropship but also have room for more CG if needed (to protect the VIP(s) or make sure that the prisoners aren't escaping). For reference, when CG is transporting a prisoner, there should always be at least one other CG than the one taking the prisoner, sometimes even more depending on the value of the prisoner. A dropship would obviously also make this faster. Hierarchy Approved

+1 Could see it being useful for multiple reasons. I definitely would have used it as an NCO but can also see it being used for various other things such as trainings and tryouts.

+1 A lot has already been said but from the limited experience i've had with you, you seem like a really nice guy who's got what it takes to be a battalion. Also really good application.

+1 A really solid applicant, I've only had good interactions with this guy and I genuinely believe he has got what it takes to be a great battalion.

+1 I agree with most people that a monthly tournament might work better. It seems like a fun thing to implement that would add a bit of a competitive aspect to things and also add more value to trainings and a reason to actually improve as a regiment.

+1 Good playtime, high rank etc. App is great and also really detailed which makes me believe that you are capable of taking things seriously when needed. Would most likely make a great staff member. Only thing to point out would be your lack of staff experience but from what I've read you seem like the kind of person who would pick it up pretty quickly.

+1 This is something that I feel like should have already been implemented. Like you said for 327th, I believe regiments such as CT also get tool and phygun at the rank of CO while others don't , which I don't really understand.

+1 Great answers, good playtime and overall seems like a perfect fit for staff

Good app High rank Mature High playtime What else could you ask for? +1

+1 Very experienced and overall a very good application. I also agree on most things that has already been said

+1 Active and doing a good job as battalion. Feel like he would make a great addition to the staff team.

+1 Really nice guy and well deserved high rank
