Welcome to Gaia! ::

So what is wrong with it you say? Well well well, where do I begin. LOL< I'm just kidding.

For starters, I like how our profiles need to be accepted, our profiles need to be consistant. Otherwise, we have a hypicritical character or a bi-polar character, or maybe even a nasty combination of the too. The only exception for that is if your character is, in fact, bi-polar! If you didn't have a consistant profile then you would be making up as you go along which isn't good. You have to think like your character would in the world he is in, and that is kind of hard when you don't even know your own character. It doesn't just help us make a good profile; it helps us RP better.

Training: I can't really comment on this given the fact that it isn't fully started yet. You obviously have an overall plan for at least the first phase of training. That or are really good at faking it whee

I'll comment in advance, I shall feel bad when we lose alot of people in the guild. Therefore, we must start recruiting!

My two cents for the ranking system is that we should have more. 1. The people that are casual RPers and don't want to have to be Nazi about thiscan still gain rank. Also, it is more realistic to have a semi-authentic chain of command.

Just to throw this in, I am deeply distraught that my...erm....our beloved Himi isn't here...again stare

I am happy that stare we are having some of the same concepts (Bloodlust, etc.) I liked them, it made this place relaxed. I ike how it isn't just RPing and you don't feel overwhelmed with threads, even befre it was remodeled.

Lastly, the Colnol sucks. We should do something about that.

Ok Children, stop fighting. Let's not be hasty now!
((I am SOOO going to get ganged up on about this...))
(((Is "Ganged up" even a...wordphrase? Shouldn't it be Gung Up?)))
((((Is "Wordphrase" even a word?))))

1) I also like the profile idea....although I seem to be getting reamed pretty badly. I am guessing [hoping] it is because you expect more from me. ((Truth be told, I can't function as well when sick. And I have been getting sick a lot recently. It pisses me off.))

2) The training is something I can only comment on by reading. If there were some specific thing we had to do BEFORE we started Actual training, like first Signing in to the Bunker log, and then heading outside, then it may work better. From Personal experience, if we are all left to our own mechanisms, we will all post something which contradicts itself in relation to the field, bunker interior, and set-up. If there were a picture it would be even easier, as visualizations always make fact. "Believe what you see" And if the maker draws the picture, then it is "canon"

3) Recruitment. Worst setback, not all recruitees are active. We can't know for certain that they can always come online. Unlike a Real Military, we aren't guarantedd to be there when you call on us. RM has you in bunkers and will have you do what you need to do daily. Online only lets you hope the people get on that day to answer you.

4) I say the ranks are fine. If anything less if better as it will have more meaning, because if you contribute nothing to the guild, you should stay an initiate. you shouldn't be rewarded for laziness. However, I do still agree with a more authentic "Original" ranking system. If we go with what every RW Military uses, it will fall into the trap that so many others have fallen into. Boredom and Familiarity. Make it exotic, or just different. Add more "People" style ranks. Don't make it as professional as the military but don't make it amateur like Terrorists. Have a ranking set-up but change the style.

5) That sucks for Himi....Holy s**t.

Well, a picture defeats the purpose of imaging in writing. So far no one has misunderstood the concept of 'blank barracks' and overall has made no real contradictions of appearance for everything. If someone is to do this, they will be repremanded in OOC.

I realize this, and as said, I am trying to work on getting more people into the guild, and if anyone else knows someone who would do well to fit in here, then send them this way.

Meaning part noted. However, I see no reason to make 'exotic' titles, as that it would have no more importance than naming them '1', '2', or '3'.

1) Noted.

2) Yea, I just hope we have more than the usual 5 people posting, though.

3) Well, that was more for having Originality more than an importance factor. However, it would be hard to make up names for a military.

So you all know, I put up a poll in the "Rankings" thread, though I don't know if it actually worked or not seeing as that no one voted on it. I was pretty much wanting to know if the current amount of ranks was good or not. If not, then should we have more or less than currently?

Oh, well I'll try remaking it. Hereafter, vote there.

EDIT: It was because it was locked. While it's unlocked now, don't post there. If you have something to say, please post it here.

You do realise that Sergeants account for about a third of military rank, right?
