Right, I'm going to keep this really simple. Some of you may not like me, and that is fine. Some of you may not agree with me, but please keep an open mind. This thread is going to point out the errors with UAF currently, along with their solutions. Read through this carefully UAF LRs and HRs alike, for this is the truth and nothing but the truth.
-Current lack of organisation in our divisions:
So just recently, our control over our divisions is appalling. We have the “Tactical Intelligence Organisation” led by Willingroblox123 as an effort to quite obviously steal the light from an established division, ATASOU, led by Shadowsword. We have the Preliators, completely unproductive and taken away from it's true purpose due to it's incompetent manager, Acestrum. Managers must be appointed for these divisions wisely. They must be able to stand as an example of the division’s principles meanwhile maintaining effective control over this division.
-Acestrum as director of our external activities:
This is a point that will cause a lot of debates on this thread, no doubt, as Acestrum is branded as a “KOOL KID” or something. But look beyond what you feel personally, is Acestrum seriously as good as you make him out to be? He is Head of External Affairs, yet we barely have any events or allied efforts with the clans we are allied to. He is Head of Warfare, yet he prefers listening to the enemy over the very clan he is Co-SiC of. An example of this was the RAT war, which we would of done terribly in if not for the intervention of the UAF community as a whole. Acestrum blamed it on the war terms HE set. People say he is “busy with four jobs”, but this is Roblox, and four jobs are not hard to deal with here. Open your eyes and deal with this person who has caused so many hardships for us.
-Focus on technology:
Once again, this is going to cause many a debate. However, just hear me out. We have a fully functioning base. Despite how old the building is, we have an entirely new weapons system in place. There's no need for new bases at the moment while we have issues to sort out internally. To put it simply, these are the following tweaks that the Albatross system needs:
-Removal of arm movements -The zoom hotkey changed to Z (This is extremely minor, as you’d imagine.) -Removal of the weapon nerf -More power added to the Shadowshot
If you are still adamant on having a new base, you can easily make one. It doesn’t need to be highly intricate and super detailed, just enjoyable. It needs to get the job done. Don't go overboard, keep it simplistic and fun. Simplicity can be a powerful tool, trust me. I'd offer to build a small base for you guys but my building days are way behind me. Also, a new base could be an excellent way to recruit members. If you got it popular, it could eventually get to the front page like bases such as Indigo II and Borealis then draw in tons of members for UAF.
-Slacking HRs:
This is a major issue. Currently, HRs are “busy” doing other things even though they seem to spend tons of time on pointless divisions such as TIO rather than hosting events and keeping UAF active. This can call for a reformation of the HRs entirely, demoting those that seem to be coughing up excuses for not doing the jobs they aspired to do when they joined the clan. It isn't on and action must be taken.
-Not listening to the members:
The members are currently extremely unhappy with the direction our administration is taking us. They are following puppets of puppets under the big head puppet instead of pointing out what needs to be done and making the clan better. You do not need to be rebellious, just constructive. Unfortunately, I cannot blame you. Our current HRs hate constructive criticism with a vengeance and halt careers in UAF for it.
-LRs not speaking up:
I know you guys are unhappy with the way the clan is going, which is why you must speak up regardless of how you are treated. Lots of you have so much potential to be good HRs from what I've seen. Start to speak up, support what's right, not what everyone that's above you is flocking to. You make our clan function, so make it function as best as it can.
-UAF is unfriendly to certain timezones:
Currently, UAF is unfriendly to most non-american timezones, especially GMT. This is an issue because with most Americans being out of school or online late, therefore coinciding with GMT members, there are no events. The members are drawn away and we become inactive. This can be remedied by a simple ad campaign that will recruit GMT members and similar minded americans to our banner. Don't forget, you will need to promote aspiring members to Major or even higher to get events done. While auto-promoting members may seem very underhanded, it is one of the solutions to this problems. We must keep an open mind. Nobody wants to wait until 8pm for a training they may not even get promoted at.
-Department system ruining independence of our HRs:
So far, our department system is being rendered useless as we have internal issues while our high command are focusing on other areas of the clan that do not need attention at the moment. HRs are not being independent because of this, simply dismissing cries out for their input in other areas of UAF claiming someone else will deal with it for them. This may seem harsh to some people that will be reading this thread, but it's sadly very true. Take initiative and go beyond the boundaries that have been set for you; the sky is not your limit, the infinity beyond it is.
-HRs being unable to take constructive criticism:
This comes not only a personal point from myself but from many other members. Why is it so hard for you to listen to what we want? We’re the people with the ideas in our heads, you're the people stamping down on them because they hurt your feelings. Those that cannot take constructive criticism are simply slowing down our progress, and it's not on. Listen to people for a change.
-Lack of attention to above average LRs:
I've seen many an LR show a positive display of command and organisation. However, their progress is being slowed down because of the current timezone unfriendliness and slacking HRs. This only puts emphasis on a high command reform and the possible autopromotion of the gems in our community.
-Abuse of the constitution:
So far, HRs are scared to take any kind of initiative because some members just can’t handle putting the clan over their personal gain. Whenever a HR gives them a little “tough love”, they wave the constitution in their faces. Let me tell you something. There's no such thing as “freedom” on this site at least. Stop living in a lie and get things done.
-Closing Thoughts:
I want this to sink in as far as possible into your minds. This is what I feel our biggest problems are, and ego aside, they probably are our biggest problems currently. Read through this thread carefully and think real hard before you attempt to wrong anything in it. This also took quite a while to revise and work on, so expect a few errors here and there.

@sir
It says there that at the moment a new base is not needed and if you insist of a new one, I wrote a set of suggestions. |

"So just recently, our control over our divisions is appalling. We have the “Tactical Intelligence Organisation” led by Willingroblox123 as an effort to quite obviously steal the light from an established division, ATASOU, led by Shadowsword. "
I can make a division just as anyone else can. I have never stated I want to "steal the light from an established division" (which by the way, several people in your division said it is still setting up stuff), nor have I ever implied it. Do not accuse me of something that isn't even remotely true.
Simply because I want to start up my own combat division doesn't mean I'm trying to sabotage another. |

| Also adding onto to my above post, I always meet my quota of training per week in addition to doing my divisional activities. And before you say that part of your post wasn't aimed at me, it clearly mentions my division. |

"What exactly is the acceptable 'quota of trainings per week'?"
The minimum amount is 2 trainings per week. |

"The minimum amount is 2 trainings per week"
So you're basically telling me that we have a quota for our activity, and you're not exceeding it?
Also, in response to your claims about your division. You are obviously attempting to fraud it off of something that's already be established and you simply refuse to listen otherwise, proving my point about some of the high command.
Your lack of ability to see sense amuses me.

Just because it mentions you doesn't make it about you, you aren't the only HR in UAF. |

I meet the quota, nowhere does it say that I stop there.
I'm also known for having the best/funnest trainings in UAF and I am one of the most active training hosts.
"Also, in response to your claims about your division. You are obviously attempting to fraud it off of something that's already be established and you simply refuse to listen otherwise, proving my point about some of the high command."
So basically because I want to start my own combat division it is automatically an attempt to sabotage ATASOU which you have absolutely no evidence of. Moreover, you say that I am trying to pass it by as another division, or in other words copy a division.
This is highly untrue because I have no idea what ATASOU does nor what it's purpose is. I don't see how I can intentionally copy a division that I know nothing about. |

This is not true, as I find your trainings to be completely restricted to the rules, and you refuse to exceed the rules and go beyond, stopping at whatever chance you get. Not to mention, there are apparent "quotas" and "training requirements" that have not been publicised, so it is likely you are slacking.
"So basically because I want to start my own combat division it is automatically an attempt to sabotage ATASOU"
ATASOU: Advanced Tactics and Special Operations Unit Tactical Intelligence Organisation
TIO's purpose: To carry out special operations for UAF. (Said by yourself during a training.)
Guess what ATASOU's purpose is. |
