With all due respect to your contributions to the faction, you are indeed one of the people who contributed the most to city in the past year, however, save for a handful of people. the faction has no active members to "earn" a right to agree or disagree to the changes.Bloodseeker wrote: ↑Sun Jun 25, 2017 9:46 pmNow that everything is being changed no matter what, I thought I might share some of my knowledge regarding the past X months of Los Santos Government, as a faction, from the OOC scale. This is my perspective and anyone is free to oppose it for whatever reason, just don't try to silence me.
This faction has only one problem, and has had only that little problem since post-creation. S T A B L E L E A D E R S H I P. You lot have Pitchounette & Allegra to thank for denying the server a functional & active government since the beginning of February, by cursing this faction with two inactive & incompetent leaders. Now you're thinking that I'm being offensive, it's just freedom of speech and I'm actually putting out some facts here because I have a spine and I don't really care if this puts my head on the chopping block. At least the good citizens of the glorious realm of Los Santos will know what actually is going on.
At the time, when the city manager update was being introduced, we used to be five candidates at Pitchounette's(and some others too I presume) mercy. (these are the presumed statistics of late January/early February 2017Out of the remaining four candidates, Susan gets chosen as the City Manager and Birch gets chosen as the Deputy City Manager. And this entire thread is the ultimate result. You(I'm addressing you, Pitchounette & whoever else that had a part to play in this) and you alone are the only reason this faction needed to be rescued by Harriet. You failed the server at choosing capable leaders for the faction (even when there were options). You shouldn't turn the faction upside down as a way of fixing what you did wrong. Players currently in the faction are (most of them at least) against this change. If you're looking for an easy way at destroying what was built up to now, you found it. This is my final plea to the staff team to snap out of it and do what needs to be done instead of what looks like you're doing something productive. All this faction ever needed was active leaders. You have Harriet now. Keep him...
- Susan Licther: Vast amount of leadership related experience, previous mayor & previous interim mayor (Vaughn term 2, after the arrest), next to no activity, being kept in the faction since forever because apparently everyone respects her wisdom from 5~ years ago
- Samuel Birch: No leadership experience except for leading licensing, little to no activity
- Allegra Nixon: Vast amount of leadership related experience, previous mayor god knows how many times, and the absolute fan favourite. Had not been in the faction since at least 3 years ago at the time! And faction management hated people just being "recruited" to the faction, and when I confronted Pitchounette about this she had no choice but keep Allegra out of this voting.
- Charlotte Edevane: Acceptable amount of leadership experience in my opinion, I was given the post of City Manager for the first time ever after Summers was banned. I managed to keep the faction together for some time despite not having to do it and I was not a forum faction leader either. Contrary to all the individuals above, I actually wasn't a ghost to my fellow faction members. I also helped Cartier Jason (acting mayor after Richardson's ban) a great deal along with Molniya in terms of keeping the faction together, from Richardson's ban until our unfortunate forced resignations at the hands of Pitchounette. 4~ hour activity.
- Molniya Dyatlova: No leadership experience except for leading the office of public services(which contains 2 departments). Has always been extremely active(8~hours) and contributive, most active person out of all five.
To sum up, all four individuals except for me are fairly sane and likable individuals that could be reasoned with, I'd rather not talk more about myself because I would hate to look like I'm promoting my own leadership manifesto.
I guess I earned myself a ban with this post :^)
Your squad of 20 inactive taxi drivers/ PW people do not have the right to decide what happens to a faction that has alot of power than influences every single legal RPer.
We all want the change to happen.
