Title: Division Mission Refocusing
Post by: on February 14, 2006, 08:33:23 PM
There is no reason to get short with anyone about this, Richard. Everybody knows your postion, it has not been ignored as far as I am concerned. It was presumed you were on leave, considering the absense and temp. command of Garhart.
The thing of it was, whoever is working the droids, or whatever in the world it is now, in the Chronasians Forum, as far as OOC, stuck a side mission in randomly with the station, which was far to big to not consult about.
The same area had a person post in the Rivendell, resulting in Taurik's disapproval, which was what triggered me to make this post.
I am not throwing a blame at anyone, I think there were some people who did not have a chance to listen to Andros/HK47 (I assume the leaders of that board?) and it just spiralled out of control.
I am bringing up the need to make sure it doesn't happen anymore.

I think it is.
I think I mentioned it before, but I will again.
The downsizing did something to myself, which was knock be down ten paces from what I had adjusted to a couple of years previous, and beyond. I have adjusted, but not fully.
I have more time in, etc., than fits my postion as 'station CO'. In other words, I have the ability to hold better, and hold it competently.
The past has me the trait of never, ever, taking a backseat to things that I am involved in. I figure the same in being at Frontier, I am a 5th high command, but besides that, I have felt (untill now, of course) that I had a place in the division as a whole.
Its an ugly thing to be forced into, and I have certainly voiced my displeasure before this post as to being given the postion I have. But I have checked, and asked, and there is no better for me, so I have stayed and managed the best as possible.
Is that reasonable?

In light of recent things, and including both the Rivendell in the station, I think it is more than needed that a discussion be opened on the ridiculous amount of unwanted side-storylines to things there have been in this division.
I think most everyone knows what I am talking about.

I have informed everyone who has added in side missions about the situation. which is the general restriction of expansion rather than this division only, That jumping into others missions or editing them to the slightest will be met with aggression. Its not tolerated anywhere. Things like that need to be planned a long long long time before. As you can see, its created much confusion.

I told you that your involvement would still be needed / wanted/ required.  But that I didn't want this squabling anymore.  That is all.  I don't like it.  Its frustrating and its no fun.  I am trying to find answers to the issues you seem to have with Ransom and myself.  But as a side note.  I know your are a 5th high command.

That last sentence will cause more than it should in the area here. I have explained myself, and I am concious. That should be satisfying enough.

If the concern with the side-missions is solved, we might be done?

I have informed all proper parties of the problem. I hope nothing else will be needed to be done.

Right. I don't invision something like that happening with Avalon, or with the Avalon Station. Frontier Division should have the same respectfull treatment in those cases.

I fixed my above post to be more reader friendly :-)

Sounds like it in this disucssion.  Perhaps you can explain to me one thing that no one ever has.  

Why all this when first meeting Andros and pretty much everything Ransom has done?  Also, why push this issue so much?  What do you want?

Myself and Tom are fellow high Command members. We have controled the situation. A situation Which is not the blame of anyone in the division command specifically. In the grand scheme of things one event created the others. Which was the unplanned abduction of myself Tom and gordon. We were not told it would happen.And Of which we handled in the least openly aggressive manor. So I've already delt with this situtation  ;)

I was not aware of problems with myself and you and Ransom. I want everything to be like it was. Only more organized."

I believe that there has been enough bickering about this topic.  We all know your feelings about it and I personal will not allow anything of the sort to happen again.  
Now in the refocusing I also think we need to establish something.  so I put it to everyones opinion.  


Comments will be ignored it just means that if you absolutly do not agree with something PM the person responsible and deal with it in a way that is not on starfleetish but also easier.  
Starfleet Regulations will be followed to the letter by all parties and I will see to that.  Meaning no more:
Beaming through shields.
Kidnapping officers.
Jacked A storylines
Overriding senior ranking officers.
Comments please feel free to express them.   After all this is a game that is supposed to be fun.... I think.

Not a problem. Its been done so far, if I am not mistaken.
 I appriciate being included in something division-wide, officially, at least.

Don't worry, I (Taurik) will take care of any unneccessary plots on the Rivendell. As I posted there, I will delete them immediately. If you want a side-plot, plan it out, preferrably in the main Mission Planning. I rarely check this forum, so I probably won't see it here. Besides, since the divisions should be working together instead of simply doing their own thing, such plans would be better in the main Mission Planning forum.

I would also like to make sure everyone knows this. The divison staff does not own their division, they do not have absolute control over it. CO's are employed by the High Command to administrate over a small part of Expansion Fleet, because the High Command can't do it alone. But we have the power to step in and change just about anything we need to to keep it all running smoothly. I won't take any more of this unplanned bull. That's not how Expansion works. Unplanned stories are non-credible, and hurt the flow of the plot as a whole. If you can get something on the station that works and doesn't hurt the rest of the fleet, go right ahead. But when I see stuff that interrupts others, it's gone. I'll delete it without warning.

One more thing. The Rivendell. I was the captain of the Rivendell before many of you were even here. I'll follow orders in character, fine, but any more stunts like that "misson that overrides all previous orders" is out of line. The Rivendell is my ship, and I want to approve all missions that it goes on.
