GM_Kadann | Welcome all to another Vast Empire meeting |
GM_Kadann | There hasn't been too much going on this week as there are some that have Spring break going on |
GM_Kadann | I'm sure we'll see some more activity here in the coming weeks |
GM_Kadann | As you've all noticed the ICS stock went public last week |
GM_Kadann | Due to the demand of a few day traders, Imperitrade is announcing that it will be lowering the commissions cost for purchasing and selling stocks |
GM_Kadann | This will allow more profits to be put into your account rather than having them eaten up by commissions |
GM_Kadann | I'll be posting the actual commission costs shortly after the meeting on the ComNet |
GM_Kadann | As a reminder, don't forget to send in your lottery tickets for this next week |
GM_Kadann | As we've seen last week with the 8 million jackpot winner, it is possible to win |
GM_Kadann | Now on to some division reports |
GM_Kadann | Welcome back Fury |
GM_Kadann | You have an Army report today? |
HG_Fury | I do. And thanks, though I don't mind saying I wish I was still out on a beach somewhere. |
HG_Fury | I have only two reports from squad leaders this week, those being Kairo and Kuroishi. The rest of you need to step it up please. |
HG_Fury | Both of those reports show uneven activity from their members. That too needs to be addressed on an individual basis. |
HG_Fury | I know breaks are coming throughout the next month or so, but kindly post leaves as needed and we'll all adjust. |
HG_Fury | I know Major Rizzit has some plans to shake up our more unmotivated troopers, which should hopefully help. |
HG_Fury | I still also have my open door policy for ideas. I have a few on the back burner pending more active members, including a new squad of troopers who work a tad outside the Galactic Code of Military Justice. |
HG_Fury | you bring me activity, I'll help you bring on the fun. |
HG_Fury | I will finish with some good news and some bad news. |
HG_Fury | Since I'm a fan of positive things, I will ask SSG Kairo to step forward. |
SSG_Kairo | Yes, sir? |
| * SSG_Kairo steps forward |
HG_Fury | Seeing as you came out of a retirement to step place into a difficult situation, I am happy to see you doing all you can to make the transition smoother for your troops. |
HG_Fury | Because of this, and of past performance I grant you at the request of your superiors the Cross of Resolve [CoR] - A medal given to the troopers that from day to |
HG_Fury | day show manners and activity befitting an officer. These troopers are |
HG_Fury | very active and ready to help the Vast Empire any way they can. |
| * HG_Fury salutes |
| * SSG_Kairo salutes |
HG_Fury | Thanks for your hard work. |
SSG_Kairo | thank you sir |
HG_Fury | Tip for next time, copy straight from the manual and not an email. |
HG_Fury | Sorry, talking to myself again. |
HG_Fury | And now, to end the army phase of the meeting, a smidgen of bad news. |
HG_Fury | I have only one more item to address today, and I wish the trooper in question were here to be spoken to personally. |
HG_Fury | It matters not, I'm sure he will be directed to the log as necessary. |
HG_Fury | When I go on leave, the command staff is in charge. |
HG_Fury | They have been appointed because I trust them to not perform mad insane stunts that would break the Corps or distract it from its mission. |
HG_Fury | Basically, if I am not around, they speak for me. |
HG_Fury | Most of you know this, and accept it as truth. |
HG_Fury | This is what makes the next thing difficult. |
HG_Fury | Late last year and earlier this year, we had two squad leaders inflict a personality war upon the Corps. Both were punished, as were some of their partisan subordinates. |
HG_Fury | I had hoped that would be fair enough warning to them both. And for one, it has. |
HG_Fury | The other has recently questioned the orders of a superior officer, slandering them, and suggesting not just ignoring orders but conspiring subversion. |
HG_Fury | I have weighed the options I have and have chosen the lighter sentence. Not because I am in a good mood; merely because I give those who fail the option to redeem or further damn themselves. |
HG_Fury | Trooper Afyon is hereby demoted to Private First Class and is stripped of any other duties other than trooper. No fire team position, no assistant squad leader role. |
HG_Fury | ANY other infraction, log of dispute of this decision, snide comment or another incident entire will result in the termination of the character and banishment from the Stormtrooper Corps and likely the club as a whole. |
HG_Fury | We are here to have fun, not to play petty power games and political backstabbing. You don't have to like every mission you receive, but try to work at making the most of it. |
HG_Fury | I like suggestions for change, I resent those trying to destroy our collective work from within. I hope that's an attitude most of us can get onboard with. |
HG_Fury | Thanks for letting me get this one off my chest. |
HG_Fury | Now let's have some fun around here for a change. |
| * HG_Fury steps down |
GM_Kadann | Thank you Fury |
GM_Kadann | Not ever fun to come back to things of that nature |
GM_Kadann | Shazam, you have a Navy report this week? |
CWO_Shazam | Sure thing |
CWO_Shazam | Right then, so we've seen some activty coming back this week |
CWO_Shazam | also, it appears that Sk8guy has finished all of the VENA exams and those who are able, should take the test and try thier best to receive distinction status |
CWO_Shazam | So, for the Navy as a whole, it looks like everyone is getting back from break, eveyone is pretty happy, and we're on the right track for some serious activity and good time in the Navy |
CWO_Shazam | that's all I've got |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Shazam |
GM_Kadann | If anyone has anything else to add, msg me now |
GM_Kadann | Guess not |
GM_Kadann | Dismissed |
