Faris Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 I've read your application twice now and one part of it is curious. the Biesel Silver Star of Merit for bravery and professionalism in the line of duty in capturing a dangerous suspect on the NSV Aurora Could you please expand upon it? The Aurora is actually the NSS Aurora as opposed to the NSV. I'm curious if this is something you've added yourself or something that canonically happened? Since if not, this seems like a military citation you've received during the characters tenure as a civilian working for a corporation, which I believe is not possible.
Scheveningen Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 What the hell happened in the first two pages here. You guys realize how awful it is to be coming out of nowhere to conveniently show up in this application just to character assassinate the OP? Those of you are not even active on server; You have no idea what this person's playstyle is, you have utterly no room to making your own past judgements and pretending they should apply in this application with your own notoriety on-server and off-server, and couple that with your own complete lack of activity on our server, you don't really seem to know a thing about how they're doing on our server. I'm not referring to Hive here by the way. His posts were at least more constructive. His analogy about throwing boulders in glass houses was exactly what I wanted to say and I'm sad I wasn't the first to say it. We have never made it the standard to pre-emptively bar someone from playing on our server or being refused access to certain whitelists just because they did badly on previous servers. When you join this server for the first time, you get a clean slate and plenty of fair chances to make your own reputation within our community, and improve on past bad judgement calls by avoiding the same mistakes as you did on another servers. If you don't agree and think this person should be held to the standard that they should be blocked by every server based on their previous bad calls and even mistakes, shame on you. Take that shamelessness you have and go back to where you came from. For all I care, that attitude is much more toxic than you could've dreamed to pin on the OP for this. That aside. The OP plays a great security officer character that follows orders to a T and does their job very effectively. Though the story about how they got the Silver Star of Merit is a sketchy backstory plot point (with some valid accreditations iirc), it's not really something I consider that would matter in the grand scheme of either accepting or denying an application. A great leader must first be a great subordinate. And so far they've been nothing but a good officer. I endorse this application and recommend the particular critics in question to revise their thinking processes and also recall if it's beneficial to their own moral character to still be harboring grudges against a specific player you haven't played with since your Archangel server died with a whimper.
Brutishcrab51 Posted September 24, 2017 Author Posted September 24, 2017 Aye. Thanks, Schevenigen. Though, the Silver Star of Merit isn't an actual action through backstory! During a canon-round ran by Jackboot, it was rewarded to both him and Sean Richter. I believe it's still on the Discord announcements, as well. https://i.imgur.com/Br2EG3Q.png That aside, I can't much expand on it. I'd have to ask the lore-master. I've tried to get further information about it from the guy, but not to much avail. It's a civil merit as far as I know. Beyond that, I'd like to thank everyone for the support, and critique from past and present friends and associates on the server. I've been watching my application anxiously, so far.
