This is my resignation from Vortex Security.
It's been coming for a while now, things have built up, and up and now I've decided to leave.
I joined VS in august 2013, shortly after imnotaguestimagirl received VS, I knew nothing of this at the time, but I enjoyed patrolling the old HQ and generally everything about VS. It's members were friendly and I felt welcome.
I got 7 promotions in the main division, 1 in Marines, and 1 in Secret Police in my first nine days, then I was stuck at First Lieutenant, then ranks changed and I became a Lieutenant, I was stuck at Lt until December, when I was promoted along with a few other Lieutenants in one of Opperblox24's events, I was really happy and around that time VS fought BWE, a war which I enjoyed immensely.
I continued in VS as a Captain and worked my way up in divisions such as Secret Police (Marshal) and Vultures (Supervisor) until they were shutdown. I continued to be active during Jan-Feb-March with the HQ 3.0 and Vulcan coming out.
On the 4th of April I became a Colonel and reached my highest point of activity, I hosted about 10-12 hours of trainings in my first week and continued to host many enjoyable trainings until imnotaguestimagirl decided to make a rule that all training places must be on her profile, from there VS started a downhill slide. Trainees quickly got tired of training at the same 2/3 places and activity dropped, trainings became harder to host because trainees were bored.
Then came the VS - UAF war. It was enjoyable, although imnotaguestimagirl stopped it after talking to UAF's leader, imnotaguestimagirl also removed UAF from VS's defeated list for an unknown reason.
After that HlCOM revived the VS:Marine Corps, I was accepted into it after the first Boot Camp, which lasted for six days. I would say that Marines and Vultures were my favourite divisions, but about three weeks later HlCOM left VS, he left the Marines group in charge of his 2iC DestructiveStrike, but DestructiveStrike was unable to run Marines because he was too busy, and was going to be inactive. He struggled for a month to get Marines sorted, but imnotaguestimagirl did not respond to his messages or do anything about Marines, so he left. Then the people (including myself) who had got into Marines in the first Boot Camp decided to run it together, we repeatedly messaged inmotaguestimagirl in various different way, but all we got was "I'll look into the situation" we waited for two to three months after that, we sent more messages but we got no reply. Then Marines was shutdown with the reason that we had become inactive and did not run any Boot Camps, the reason this had happened was due to the fact that none of us had any group powers whatsoever, so even if we did run Boot Camps we couldn't change anything, we couldn't accept new members, nothing. All that was required of imnotaguetimagirl was to promote one person, and MC would have been up and running, we had it all planned.
VS needs to sort itself out very fast to have a hope of saving itself. This may require a new leader who communicates with his/her High Command, and is active or imnotaguestimagirl needs to devote at least one hour a day to just focus on VS, be it building, scripting, looking at problems, sorting ranks out, hosting events, anything to make VS properly active and new.
Here are some things that I feel need to change for VS to move forward:
Training centers can be on anybody's profile, as long as they have been approved from the Head of Training. There are so many good training places waiting to be used, but imnotaguestimagirl got greedy with a few tix and now the trainings have become a monotonous sludge.
New Weapons, since I joined VS I have seen nothing new, the weapons are the same, the helicopters are the same, the boats were the same, the textures were the same, the style was the same, and old fort was used, with a new number and a new "lick of paint".
New Fort, a new !Up-To-Date! fort is a MUST, none of this old <2012 stuff.
Get Osyris back, he was a great scripter and had the new VS guns ready, and then Superburke1 makes him leave, now VS has no new guns, Osyris made them in two weeks, Superburke1 has made a few guis in a few months.
Re-establish a punishment = demotion system, not just -3 iP/cP, you can earn that at one training.
Give Colonels admin powers at the Fort, you trust them with admin at training places, you trust them with promotion and demotion powers, infact you select the ones who you trust, so why not let them have admin at the fort?
Last, but CERTAINLY not least, imnotaguestimagirl must COMMUNICATE WITH HER HIGH RANKS not just "I'll do it" "I'll look into it" "Yes I will" and it never gets done, or takes very long to do anything. I have probably seen her about 15 times, in the entire time I have been in VS.
I had a great time in VS, and I won't forget it.
iDomerius/Claw62 You've been in VS for longer than I have, I remember when you gave me my first VSSP training. Great to have worked with you!
Technorius/Darthnoodles98|r2d2inblue Been nice working with you Tech and R2! We were even for most of the way. :)
Dalzeel/AgentCG I remember you hosting my second training, at the WIJ Joint Faciltiy. Great times.
OpperBlox24 You were and are on of my favourite HRs,
HlCOM/roblox12345 I remember when I marked your ST test way back when. Sad to see you go. You were also one of my favourite HRs.
KnowDaGame Was great working with you, you taught me a lot in Vultures.
^(In no order)^
Sorry if I forgot anyone, I've met a lot of you and it's difficult to keep track of everyone. :)
Adios VS, I will probably be back in the future, and you will still see me at Vulcan now and then.

Sorry to see you go, you were a great guy. I hope everything goes well for you as a Developer (if you choose to go that path) or wherever else you want to go.
in a while, crocodile.

She's the worst leader of VS's time. Sorry you had to serve with her, you seem like a cool person. |

Thanks Tach and Vaul, I'm going to stay and help VS to get better, not just jump over board.

1) A new fort is actually being built.
2) The guns are going to be released with the new fort.
3) She wasn't being greedy when she required all training places to be on her profile, that was made when swordmaker did the Training Council and she just didn't see a reason to change it, I know this because I am the one who mentioned the idea to sword.
4) Could list another reason but some Colonels would get mad about it.
5) Last but not least, members are inactive all over the clan world, its going down hill because nothing new is hardly ever done with C&G. The devs have spent too much time on this player points system that is pretty much useless now and no one wants to use it. |

I need to communicate with my highranks more?
Pretty sure I told you the first time you started bugging me (most of the time while I was offline at like 3 AM, mind you) that it was a decision the Advisors and I would make together. It took a while because we had to take many things into consideration. I was also waiting on a Vulcan update from Superburke1 before I just removed MC, but decided that you were bothering me to the point where I'd just shut it down anyway. |

@imnot, you said you would "look into the situation" but after two months nothing happened, so I started messaging you again.
Also, I didn't say anything about this, but two months before, I had messaged you multiple times about other VS related things, to which I recieved no reply, at all. I first messaged KnowDaGame, he replied within five minutes saying I should go to you, I did, and you were online when I sent them.

You ignored three messages, replied to one, then ignored the rest.

Communication was also a problem with myself and Lilly when I resigned.
@Superburke1
I looked at my old list that shows respective Colonels that serve under their Advisors, and it says AlgyLacey belonged to opperblox24.
If you guys aren't keeping a list of who belongs where, perhaps organize that area better.
(keep in mind I pulled this list out of the dust from about a month and a half ago) |

I've been making an effort not to associate myself with VS stuff any more, but I'll make an exception this time:
I can vouch for the communication issues. imnotaguestimagirl is by far the most inactive leader VS has ever had. While you could say she is more proactive in going to trainings, the fort, etc.. She really doesn't get anything done. She's had VS for over a year now? Literally no development has been made.
When you do leave her messages, she'll sometimes see them? Most often, she just doesn't reply so you have no way of knowing if she knew what you said, etc. That was definitely an issue for development.
I agree with pretty much everything in the OP. It was an interesting read, to say the least. |

| Oh funny because I told you weeks ago on MC wall that it was being shutdown and you still complained. By the way it's not Lilly's fault for being busy I mean she runs a clan have a little patience. |

@Term 1) and 2) Heard vague rumors of that like two months ago.
3) She just needs to say "It's open now, Colonels can host where they want, as long as they do a good job" I'm not sure how many Colonels will openly say this, but trainings got very boring after that.
5) Has it been going down since I joined? I've only seen Lilly in the entire time, about 15 times. Anyway, inactive or not 5 months and I still haven't had a response to three messages?
@Super, well what have you made besides a few guis at Vulcan? I haven't seen anything.
@MS, That was still two months after both Destructive and I had tried to contact her.
@HlCOM in the main body, I meant SP not ST.
