Denied Give ISD/DEA Regiment Tabs

[Guts]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Give ISD/DEA a regiment tab much like Nu7, O-1 etc.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not that I think

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
It is a massive pain in the ass to keep track of people that are in the regiment if people in the regiment can't log them properly. Along with that, the regiment tabs have the ability to show who has been online how long ago, making it easier to handle and actually remove the inactive people on our own accord, rather than having to rely on SL to remove the whitelist of people that are offline.

Not to mention that DEA can finally participate in vMissions, as it's been said that the only reason as for why DEA can't join, is because DEA isn't a proper regiment.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Plenty of dev work to fully realize the system and add more columns to allow for ISD and DEA space


Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
As said above, it would allow managing the Departments on a level similar to MTFs. Being given the ability to show when somebody has last logged on, while also being able to kick them or demote them on the spot without SL assistance is a blessing in disguise.

Would also allow DEA to finally participate in infils, or other kinds of missions.

This needs looking into as I feel like it's one of the biggest sense of joint action between SOP is fighting for Surface objectives. but DEA can't see them and don't feel a need to participate (this is my assumption. feel free to tell me i'm wrong)

DEA actively aid Nu7 in missions against GOC. (And don't stop firing until 2 minutes after it ends)

For ISD at least, this is not needed. We already have public sheets for the purposes of tracking CL3 and CL4 personnel, and due to the system conflicts with actual regiments, this would be quite a restrictive change. If there are issues with logging people into rosters or determining their activity, there are clearly some administrative faults serving as the root cause of these issues.

Such goals including the implementation of surface objectives for DEA (this seems like a great idea) could probably be achieved through other means, as some others have said, like changing surface missions to being job-based instead of regiment-based. Generally though, our departments don't (or rather shouldn't) function like regiments given their fundamental differences, i.e. the polarity of their member counts and contrasting ranking structures.

+1/-1

Hey there Guts, I am giving this a Natural [+1/-1] because I see where you are at but for CL4+ Regiments such as O-1 as you stated in your suggestion is not a good idea for DEA or ISD because they do things the CL3 teams such as ISD or DEA should see or know, DEA/ISD should be looking at CL3 stuff like GSD, Medical etc.

Suggestion Denied

Hi @Guts ,

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.
The Content Team has chosen to deny your suggestion due to the following reasons.

Due to the technical and practical limits of vwar this isn't really possible. Additionally it would mean non CL4 dea wouldn't be able to participate in cmissions either. There's also the issue of how jobs tied to regiments are setup amongst other things. For these reasons this has been denied.

Your suggestion will now be locked and marked as denied.​
