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)

If people aren't logging stuff in a regiment... that's a problem that SA/whoever need to deal with ngl. (Unless I misunderstood that). As for relying on removing whitelist. I suppose, though I don't see it being enough of a problem to make a whole regiment tab for it.

This still does also prevent DEA/ISD mains from joining a regiment in the future, Also prevents them from Joining both CI and GOC if they wished to.

Edit: My opinion wasn't clear. -Support. Though I would love for DEA to be able to do vmission stuff.

vmissions are locked to regiments, part of the reason as for why I made this suggestion
 
what if guys
you could have 2 foundation characters, and both are in different regiments

would encourage people to (maybe) actually RP them out as different people/characters, and would allow things like this to be added, which would allow DEA to go do Missions

until then this is basically a cockblock to those holding the positions as they can’t join any other regiment

It'd be good, if regiment tabs werent restricted to "if you're in a regiment no other roles". It'd be a major change to how jobs work, and a pain in terms of moderation.

I think what could be good instead, is the ability to check whos currently approved for what role (I guess WL might have this but I'm old and forgetfull)

While I understand why you want to do this, you do not need to be active to hold DEA or ISD Agents/Operatives. Additionally, so many people hold these positions you'd have infinite scrolling to do on the regiment tab. It just wouldn't work well.
So how about, that should be implemented. Just add Special Agent+ maybe Senior Agent+ for DEA (dont know about ISD). Basically mainly involve Whitelisted people

+ support

I feel like it'll serve the exact same purpose as the MTF regiments and I don't mind. Only issue I see is that in order to be in a regiment, you need your character put in it, since you can only be in one regiment, that means, you need two chars.
