The Golden Rule
ICily, I just wanted to know the nature of the relationship between the Galactic Alliance and the One Sith. I'm new, so I'm still trying to figure out the whole political game on Chaos.

Openly, eternally, and unabashedly at war with each other. The GA raided Coruscant and destroyed the Sith temple along with multiple other worlds and then invaded OS world of Lujo. OS retaliated by attacking Sullust.
ICly, the GA was founded to destroy the Sith.

You ain't the first.
I'd say there's room to improve so far as IC trust and cooperation are concerned, but no enmity.

Roche was an unmitigated PR disaster for the Republic. They have a pretty short list of friends right now. Maybe this can be changed, but it'll take time and effort.

[member="Mara D'Lessio Merrill"] From an IC standpoint, what problems do you see with the GR?

[member="Ayden Cater"] Thank you for a mature response. Reviewing that thread, I completely agree with you there.

From this particular character's IC standpoint, the main issue is that the Republic consistently fails to hold its own people accountable. There's been a laundry list of Roches, going back Mara's entire life, and her family's been caught up in quite a few of them. So accountability would be a big thing. She also has issues with clone armies -- her aunt was a clone, and a clone rights activist. She's not wild about Forcers being unable to hold office, when every couple of years a Republic Senator gets outed as a secret Force-user (it's happened a LOT). And being a Warden of the Sky, she's not at all pleased about the way the Republic's forced certain worlds into the fold (Cato Neimoidia, Manaan, etc.). She's far from the Republic's enemy, and she can separate institutional culture from the needs of the Republic's citizens, but she doesn't see much worth in the Republic in general.

[member="Suravi Teigra"] Okay mine is a bit weird, so I will list them
1: I don't believe the republic can stand it's ground against anyone in a battle, as such it can not defend my home world alderaan.
2: I think the fact even minor members don't get a vote on things is bad, I never had vote on who supreme chancellor, as normal citizen.
3: Also as force user I can't even try to become a senator, though I am expected to fight for you when the time comes.

I believe that the production of clones for the use as conscript soldiers is tantamount to slavery. I respect a clone's right to personhood. I don't think the Republic will be ever fielding clone armies again, but I don't think we would stop individual clones from volunteering. As a practical matter, I find the whole clone trooper thing dumb, if you want obedient drones, then use droids.
Right now, there's a bill to allow Force Users to openly hold office, but as a precaution, Yslamari will be housed in the Senate (my idea). I also wanted to go with detectors and a registry for government officials, but people weren't crazy for that idea, even though there's a history of infiltration and a precedence for the use of Force Detectors in the past. I don't know how the Senate expected to keep out FUs in the past with no means of detection in place. The Jedi aren't around anymore.
I think the Jedi Order is lame for withdrawing from Republic affairs when they were needed the most. Now I see some motions to have them folded into the GA. That's fine, but I would like a new institution setup up in their absence, to train FUs that want to actually participate within Republic society. I'm a FU (former Jedi actually), but I don't want to be a monk removed from my community, which is Kiribi and the Republic.
Yes, I've perused the Manaan thread. That hardline approach is definitely not in the style of the Republic as I believe it to be. One silver lining to Roche is that style of "diplomacy" has finally blown up in some people's faces. In the short term, Roche was a disaster, but in the long term, the Senate has been presented with an opening to take out the trash.
Thank you for sharing. I think all your problems are being addressed.

1. The biggest issue I see with the Sith their advantage in biotech and the superior integration of FUs into their military. Then on PVP, we're lacking. The Jedi aren't reliable, so the GR needs to come up with another solution to counter FUs. I'm working on some special units for that.
2. OOCily, I think all members should have input on major decisions. I don't like FAs working behind the scenes doing whatever they want, then telling regular members to just deal. This isn't a complaint specific to Chaos, but one I have for roleplaying forums in general. In my brief experience with the GR, I haven't experienced anything like that personally, but I read the grumblings of some older members.
ICily, the Republic functions under a representative democracy. If you want input, then you need to work through your Senator, or become one yourself.
3. There's a bill being floated around that will allow FUs to openly participate in government. It currently has unanimous support.

1: I have said I couple times, in different ways, but here is current list
Well on the one part I can help, currently making a disc cannon almost ready for tech review.
Also though you may have to do dev thread, or get the mandalorians of your back (that's not happening soon)
Get hold of force breaker grenades, [member="Danger Arceneau"] does sell them but you may issues get them off her.
Also have look at infantry blaster, one of the agl is ear marked crowd control, have look into it.
Also I have part dev thread for anti sith spawn weapon, but when ever I told anyone in position to help me develop it I got told they don't need it.
Also you can buy cloned yasamri on mass use them, and have look at the mandalorian bral I think was called, basically stopped us for a while at the second battle of curscant where [member="Ayden Cater"] gave us a proper run for our money. (I am Sabrina Kotass was darth banshee at the time)
2: Yep I know you mean
3: I don't want to be I just like the right to vote on issues like who is my senator, or who is my supreme chancellor

On an OOC level, about your PVP point, I've fought Republic people as various faces. I've done as much PVP as anyone over the last decade and a half, and I'm pretty comfortable winning or losing. So you can understand where I'm coming from when I say the Republic has a persistent need for PVP literacy. Standard procedure is to make mistakes, ignore the consequences - or ignore attacks altogether - and then cheat to avoid losing. It's also fairly prevalent in the One Sith, which says a lot about how a culture of PVP illiteracy develops.
Teach your members how to take a loss, and their quality will increase to the point where you can win invasions.

[member="Mara D'Lessio Merrill"] agree on that one, not mentioning any names
but more than once have I had to point players to pvp 101 and god modding one
one them had cheek to write blog then how to take hits
Taking hit's are my favoute part off pvp, trying think how I can come back at my opponent.

[member="Mara D'Lessio Merrill"] Fair point, poor PvP play is what led to civilians getting vented on Roche. Your character seems like someone I'd like to meet with one of my alts. Would you be willing to spar with me and do some Force related learning? I don't have any experience with FU's here on Chaos.
