just to start this off. this post is not intended to insult or cause beef against Mikealo, but rather gauge peoples opinions on a High Ranking Member of the Server as Event Master & Yoda

The most he's done in months is throw a tantrum at last event today because it wasn't Jedi focused and they actually had to use teamwork instead of 1v1 played Jedi and enjoyed it but because others didn't enjoy it he decided to kick up a fuss
 
No beef towards Mikealo, we used to be chill on the server when I played...

but as far as the amount of -1's in a row, I am genuinely surprised the acting GA or senior staff or someone didn't step in, especially for what used to be the most played donator regiment. Jedi isn't hard to run either, you basically just have to enjoy roleplay and the regiment runs itself.
 
People might not respect my opinion due to the fact I've been gone from MVG for many months now and I'm not here to defend Mikealo or fight his corner at all but to have another side to this.

The 0/-1's is something that in fact the GA/Senior Staff should speak to Mikealo or do something about it but that's for them to decide and also do.

However, it just surprises me how people don't respect the chain of command. Keth and Locho were told by multiple people over and over again, not just from Mikealo, to either stop using it/give it I think it's just stupidity that you ignored it then now complain that punishments are being given out. You can say it's not his event or what not but when even other people are saying it surely you take the hint and stop using it. To me it seems you knew it was wrong to use it but kept using it for this incident to happen.

Plus, I see it as being unfair on Mikealo that he is the only one targetted by the decision made to kick/strike people post this incident happening when it was not just his idea but a collective, use your heads lads.

I mean overall the event got a +1 people enjoyed it I was playing as Jedi and from my POV the only reason anything happened was because Jedi players didn't like it

I wont go in detail on it, but the way it was handled was shit. Locho's removal was not justified as i was the one who gave him it, and all i got was a strike

But is this not a place to discuss it? Can you go into detail so we can all understand it more.

Question from me is, why keep giving it to him?
Then again the decision was not just all Mikealo's to remove him so how is it not justified when not just him agreed with the set punishments
 
Plus, from what I know. Locho was told to stop using it, even if you keep giving and giving it to him what stops him from just not using it, he's not a puppet nor an idiot so he can just not use it, to me if they just listened to people to stop using it then this could of been avoided.
 
I mean overall the event got a +1 people enjoyed it I was playing as Jedi and from my POV the only reason anything happened was because Jedi players didn't like it
In response to the +1's, the event was given 19/48 +1's, that's not even half the player count.

LoCho was playing as an EE in someone else's event, what would've been done if it was someone who wasn't in event team that was doing it? Besides I'm not in event team but I'm sure there's no rules against using it and to make stuff up on the spot purely because your reg doesn't like it because they can't just saber spam and win, just goes to show the bias it takes to take action by removing someone from event team for breaking no rules and wasn't even hosting the event but was playing EE, there are only 3 rules EEs have to follow which he did so to do anything is like I said blatantly biased for his own regiment, he's received -1s for weeks in a row and if the way he's going about bringing himself and Jedi back into good standing is to strike a punish event team that don't focus their events on Jedi looking good I fear for the future of event team.

That's a mix of +1s and 0s as well as -1s so on the average people either though it was okay or liked it but even as the vote stands which I know.it doesn't do 0s justice it still would've only gotten a 0 at the lowest which isn't bad just average

When it came to the Decision of Removing LoCho it was heavily influenced by Mike's personal feelings against him, and the reason for the saber being used in the first place was because of its op force abilities as part of the story. it was never supposed to be just jedi who engaged him despite him only igniting his lightsaber once in the event and considering that he only got healed once during the entire event as a way to mitigate it somewhat.
when mike told me to remove the saber from him i saw it as interfering with the event for a unjust reason, and to be completely fair 5k HP is nothing compared to a 60k HP Droideka. He Could have easily been focused down by people as he was a large threat, but he wasn't. at the end of the day the most Locho Should have received was a strike, but mikealo decided to remove him instantly and considering that he hadn't been striked even once during his 6 Month stay in the event team.
 
The whole 0/-1's is fair game in my eyes, I'm talking about the event as even if there is no rule and someone who is higher up tells you to not do something you do it in my eyes, your ignoring higherups, simple as that.
I'm not saying what Mikealo does it perfect in everything he does and the decisions made from the people for this incident is because it was done straight after the event and not thought about as much as it could of been so maybe there was some poor points in what they did but surely you see that blatantly ignoring higherups is wrong?

But do you not see the Bias on how he's getting involved when it's just Jedi that aren't dominating the force user? Because they can't just spam it to death he's getting involved, he may be a higher up but he's got to be consistent and act like one, suddenly getting involved because your regiment is complaining isn't being a leader its just an abuse of power
 
Possibly it is, but at the end of the day when you look at things like event-feedback in the discord people mostly complain when their regiments don't get action or are being fucked over, if Jedi aren't enjoying an event then is it not fair to maybe just prepare the leaders of the event and just say the EE is going to be difficult but is apart of the event-series as they should respect that from an event host but if not then that's something wrong on their end but if not and people are complaining can you not adapt the event. For example, I had a lot of experience with this for my period of being in event team when a regiment wasn't enjoying the event so I had to adapt that event plan and give EE's different weapons ect. At the end of the day, it's an event members job to try make the whole community and attendees of the event enjoy it, Jedi weren't so they asked the event host/EE's to change the weapon and they didn't.

The issue wasn't because of Jedi whining about it, you really do gotta understand that Mikealo said over and over and over again for them to stop using the lightsaber, they just decided to continue doing whatever they wanted. I've been told off myself before about using the dual electro staffs because they were not allowed be used and it's not like I complained about it or ignored I just know for the future to not use it. It's pretty much just common sense which just wasn't followed.
 
tbf most of the event team are wank all, This could be to blame Mike but we can also blame the seniors for not doing anything about it.

So why blame him? Simple he doesn't stay active enough on the server to even be considered active for his own regiment, So why have him in the highest position for event staff?
If you are event master or whatever the name is called, Yes you aren't meant to do many events HOWEVER you will be expected to give feedback during events, making sure they are running smooth and picking people who can bring creative ideas to the server.
If he can't be active for Jedi how is he meant to be active for Event Lead?, If he is stressing out then help him out and either remove him from one so he can focus on another one.

When it comes to other servers which have both an Event Team and a Staff Team they work it out well, They have the Event team's only job is to host events, whereas they have staff focus on staff things. By the looks and sounds of how Event Team is at the moment is, Event Team is meant to do Events whereas Staffs job is also to do events but also take care of people during the day, so overall you are doing them all wrong, Would focus on fixing the event team so the events staff actually do events and not just wait till they do quota and leave it for a week and leave staff to do staff stuff.

TLDR
Give mike some help in the event role or remove him so he can focus on Jedi.
Have the Event team focus on events and stop letting the Staff team do events, if the Event staff aren't doing events just remove them.
Give Keller Senior admin so he can focus on the Event Team and Staff Team with Painite or have Rush and Deadshot help out on the server.

Honestly the best thing you've ever said on this server ngl.
Also prob the smartest thing that I've read from someone outside staff/event team in a while.
