The Sovereign

Stop asking me I have no interest in being Chief of Police.

@ JProfessMan You clearly play multiple PC's at the same time and have gotten away with it for years and staff look the other way. Not sure who you bribed to make them overlook that, but so help me god I'll have them all driven out. Amd when a staff member who hasn't been bribed finally comes for you, I hope their wipe your money duped bank.

Might as well just take the leap and add an 'usurper of CC' on there too. Tbh, mako isn't a bad or unprofessional cop in my opinion. If he's gonna be chief though, I wish he'd at least chill up on raiding the new players houses. I was lucky enough when I started to get a mercy check and an explanation of probable cause and raiding when I first started out. Mako just ruthlessly raids new players houses and doesn't gaf lol. Also, he never lets people pay tickets to keep kits like under almost any situation. Creates anti-apd resentment.

Tuesday mornings are oly+ only timeslots. You guys know this.

All of a sudden big john starts 'whiffing' and getting arrested 10x a day.

If you had a job, and that job let you just fall asleep at your desk every day without saying anything... you're gonna sleep at your desk. If asking a dept head is an acceptable norm, it isn't going to stop until supervisors of the position assert the boundaries.

Yeah no shit dumbass. He is unsupervised.. so he can do whatever he wants. Someone should be stepping in and holding him accountable that has the power to do so.

I'm gonna say what nobody seems to be getting here. Despite everything that's happening, none of this is Winter's fault. It's the fault of those whose job it is to hold him accountable.

I'm tired of this man not being permed. It's like the staff doesn't even care about this server.

IF THIS IS REAL LETS HAVE SOME EVENTS. START SOME SALES! THE GREATEST MOMENT IN OLYMPUS HISTORY! @ JProfessMan Is that you?

ISTG if I hear one more disrespectful child coming for J.G. Thirlwell like that.... That's the same guy that did both tracks in The Bombtage.

HM? I might buy all 4 tbh if the price is decent.

You're a cringe weirdo desperately trying to get power over people in anyway that you can. Thankfully youre too stupid to ever pull it off.

I saw your desktop and how many cheats to diff games you have. You're a serial cheater. Just because you're terrible at arma and die to me regularly doesnt mean you arent a sad sad cheaty boy. Also, heard you basically orgasming in discord when you had mod powers in minecraft, and saw you have a mental breakdown when xlax wouldn't let you cheat in a kids game.

Your fiance stopped sleeping with you because she saw you use hacks in a bunch of games and doesn't respect you as a man anymore. She's going to cheat on you.

It'd be like putting @ Chunk in charge of managing the inventory at a waffle house.

I mean, to go from one to the other is fine imo. It's when you start stacking contradictory responsibilities that it becomes as conflict of interest. It'd be like making sr APD head of CC. You have to, ultimately, choose which side of the fence you're on. And if the responsibilities clash, then one side is getting neglected regardless. There's a reason we avoid these dramatic conflicts of interest. Head of CC has to be able to debate and argue with staff without it potentially having an effect on his career in any way. Even if all those above him are responsible and mature enough to understand he's doing his job as head of CC, there's still the possibility that he would fear that it's possible to damage his staff career, and avoid disagreeing with staff anyways just by the nature of the dual position. Also, he could simply get folded into the staff community so deeply that he no longer actually represents civilians at all and starts parroting the Staff's consensus on every matter. To be clear... This isn't about walt. I feel he was the best choice for head of CC, and I feel he has what it takes to be staff as well. This is about the nature of conflict of interest and why every well ran governing body of any sort does the best they can to avoid it, and when they don't, it always ends in institutional breakdowns and corrupts the system.

ty

You vigi'ed me on cap. Just saying. I was naked, 2v1 with a shotgun. THE ONLY PART OF THIS THAT'S A FLEX IS YOU HAVE PROOF THAT YOU MET ME.

Great men don't seek power. It is thrust upon him. Take his dog hostage or something. We can thrust the power upon you.

I'm not saying he's bad for or at either job, simply that the existence of both creates a conflict of interest that devalues the trust and faith that players put into the system itself. There are subtle ways it erodes at the confidence. Say like all of CC wants something implemented, and the person he'd have to argue for it is in charge of if he gets admin or not, which deincentivises him to fight as hard for said implementation for fear of it effecting his staff career. I have no reason to believe something like this has or had happened, but it's very easy to imagine, and is just a simplified example.

I advised him that was unwise for the representative of the playerbase to become staff and how that would be a huge conflict of interest. He agreed... at the time lol.

Incidentally I also feel the same way about CC and staff.

So he quit the faction, and now we're all scratching our headings wonder why a coups isn't kicking off. Gotcha.
