Volunteer to be the next Faction Owner

[Jacen Voidstalker]

Do not nominate anyone in this thread except yourself.


The Galactic Alliance has been running strong for nearly two years now. It is the largest faction on one of the largest SWRP communities on the internet.

Being the owner of this Faction won't always be an easy job, but it will be rewarding.

We are a community within a community, here to help new members settle into the site and to build long lasting writing partnerships and friendships. They will look to you for guidance and there are few jobs that allow you to influence the community like this one.

I'll be there to help for at least a month after you take on the job to help you settle into the role.



It doesn't matter if you don't think you're ready for this, no one will be. Put down your name here if you want to be step up and be the new Owner.

I nominate myself. If I win, then I will step down as the SJO FO to assume my new responsibilities as the leader of the GA.

I will step forward for the vote. If I win I will relinquish my position as Role Play Judge on my Taryc Ap'Irae account.

Could you each give a brief statement on why you want the position, what you feel you'll bring to the role and what your plans are for the direction of the faction

I believe I can continue to add to the works Jacen and his predecessors began by collaborating with Alliance writers on where they would like the faction to go.

I believe I have the respect of the majority of Alliance writers, as well as the respect of those who write outside of the Alliance. I hope to continue to grow our collaboration with other factions for mutually beneficial growth and storytelling.

Certainly!

As far as theme and story direction goes for the GA, I think it's fine. I dig the whole underdog feel that's going on right now, and I'm actually pleased as a writer that the GA and FO are finally slugging it out. This titanic clash was definitely months and years in the making, well before my time, so it's exciting to see it all finally play out as a newer member to Chaos. I've had a good time participating in said slugging on both sides of the conflict as a writer.

Outside the core group of senior members, the GA is still in something a slump for activity. To fix that, my main objective as FO would be to help continue on the track of my predecessors of making the GA more inviting for both new and old writers alike, and work on improving inter-faction relations with our neighbors on the map on an OOC level with the help of my fellow GA members. Through these policies, I believe we would see a growth of membership and a nice uptick in activity within the faction among other groups as we build a rapport in the spirit of collaboration.

I have enacted similar policies during my current tenure as the SJO Faction Owner, and even within a short time, the turnabout has been nothing short of amazing. Afer having some problems as of late, we've seen a nice rise of activity from our newer members which I believe is crucial for the long-term survival of any faction. Even with me leaving the position of FO, I believe the SJO will remain on the right track with the changes I have enacted already, and as I continue to work closely with them as a regular member. I hope to see similar results if I am honored with the privilege of becoming the Faction Owner of the Galactic Alliance.
