Discord name: alex22772277

For how long have you played on CG SCP: Somewhere between a year and a year and a half.

Age:22

In what country are you located?: USA

Time zone: EST

Character name(s):Abdul Lanahan

Civilian name: John Lanahan

What server are you applying for? (SCP-RP UK or SCP-RP USA): USA

Do you have a mic?: Yes
-
List all whitelisted, MTF, or CI roles that you hold or have held:

-Currently I have whitelist for Combat Medic, Internal Affairs Agent, and External Affairs Agent. I have held E-11 Specialist in the past and Sr. Executive.

Have you received any kicks/bans/warning? and why?:

-7 warns for various things over the course of playing for almost a year and a half. Most at the beginning when I was learning which are like fear rp or fail rp type of warns. One ban due to mental health concerns.

Why are you applying for Executive Researcher?

-I’ve got a lot of experience in the role and it’s a home away from home. I just enjoy helping others and showing them the ropes. The things that can be built in rp are just wonderful experiences that I’d like to experience again. Now I probably won’t play for 50+ hours a week like I use to. I could definitely do 20 to 30 hours of Exec time a week. I know that I will be able to contribute to the Research Department as I have before. I am known to do lectures which are my favorite way of teaching. All in all, I just enjoy teaching others and being a guide. I've got the free time to do it and the wisdom to impart. Its just something that I have always really enjoyed in this community.

What makes you suitable for Executive Researcher?:

-I have previous experience in the role and have done well with it before. I was Director Of BoE, Director of CRB, and had a group at the time which was approved, called LRT, and was approved by Dpt. Director Friedhart, Dpt. Director Keagan, and Dpt. Director Uriah. LRT was cut due to mental concerns, and I had to take a break. I have taken time to reflect and found solid balance in life. I take initiative and enjoy helping others. I have a collection of lectures that I use to give people lectures. In BoE I mainly taught people how to teach others and to give lectures. I worked with Athena and Gordon Gudgen when I was over there, and we did a lot of good work. In CRB I was mainly assigning orders to people and keeping the operation moving. When I took charge as Director of CRB I decided that it was best to close it down and to make CRB research focus rather than sale focused. I did not get far with that though tried my best.

How many excellent-graded documents have you written? What makes a document excellent?

-Quite a few. I was showing Dpt. Director Elias one of my 35 page documents. I take my personal standards pretty high, though, I understand the core parts of a document and would be happy to bring a document into the interview phase. Essentially though a document needs to follow the format given by Research policy at the time. Right now, I believe it is a title, index, SCP info, goal of study, participants and required items, hypothesis, test, conclusion, and authorization.


What are the responsibilities of the Executive Researcher in RP?:

-To guide, mentor, and lead researchers. They enforce the policies that we are bound by. Executive Researchers are the backbone of the department. Being Executive Researcher is about being calm and patient. Able to handle any question that people have and direct people to the source material. Execs do many things like sign documents, grade them, give lectures, do group activities, and special research projects.

Please give some lore about your Executive Researcher character and what storylines they would be involved in:

-Abdul Lanahan has been with the foundation for some time as a tenured member. Their lore includes running previous sub divisions. Abdul Lanahan also took some time away for mental health, approved by the Ethics Committee and RSD. Abdul has light thaumatalogical abilities, though is not able to do much beyond levitate a coin. Abdul participated in Project Blue with Barry Uriah and was one of the leads assigned to it. Project Blue is often what is believed to cause Abdul’s absence

While I have met you in game, I've only seen you today, and I don't believe that you are 100% ready to be an executive again due to what I'm assuming is you just returning.
Returned three months ago actually and have been apart of the CN community for some time now. Attached is my blacklist appeal and if I must show messages discussing my mental situation I will. https://civilnetworks.net/community/threads/blacklist-amnesty-abdul-lanahan.29661/ . Thank you for your reply and feedback

I must have not seen you around then, and you do not have to give me those messages, I have my own fair share of mental issues so I empathize. I'll remove my -support.

- Have not seen much activity within Research Department
- Checked the graded documents over the past month and no documents submitted in the past month
- No recent "excellent" graded documents

Activity and track record of past graded documents are important for acceptance to an executive research position. Unfortunately, I have not seen much of these factors. I wish you the best of luck on your application

Yo its Rat, used to be Barry
I refuse to put what you said to Barry here during that meeting, you knew exactly what buttons to press to manipulate him, nevertheless this is not the place to talk about it I put my reason and that's that.
I don't hold anything against them, I've talked with them some again recently and they've apologized and shown real regret, I've forgiven them. (I was Barry for those who read this and aren't aware)

Main Reason
_____________​
  • Has experience within RSD (Executive).
  • He was a leader of CRB, BoE & LRT.
  • He's nice.
  • When he was an exec, he was active in research.
  • Helped CRB & BoE crisis.
  • Always nice to his sub-divisions member.
  • Has done several projects.
  • Has done many of lectures and mentoring (As exec).
  • Did a weekly meeting between different sub-division
  • Helpful person
  • Lack of activities these days

Additional (Personal) Opinion
__________________________________​
  • Since LRT was made, this team has successfully helped many people (in financial). It also helped RSD (in projects) and CRB.​
  • When he was promoted to be a leader of CRB and BoE he did many good things, for me one of the best thing he did is helped in CRB & BoE crisis (This crisis happened at 2024), and solved the crisis in less than 2 months.​
  • His action to change some rules and management has successfuly made the sub-division he led to be an organized sub-division. Example: Did a weekly meeting, this weekly meeting make their personnel (sub-division member) to be more deligent and avoid getting miss-understanding when doing their works.​
  • His contribution in helping and completing many projects has made other execs responsibility more light (easier).​
  • Need to be more active​

The relapse is real. You've done good stuff but, if you happen to get Exec, I hope what happened before doesn't happen again. So, from me?

+/- Neutral Support

Quite honestly, I haven't seen you around. I understand you have been a long time player, I know that. But, since being unbanned, what have you done? If you can list that off I can change to +Support

Good luck though, in any regards.
Ive withdrawn my application for now, got some nasty dms about my app. Its not time for it now.
