[lukekelly51]

Which server are you applying for? (UK/US): UK

Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:526565806

Discord name: Luke_Kelly

For how long have you played on MRP: Possibly around or just under a month now, My Vtime is - 4d +

Age: 18

In what country are you located?: United Kingdom

Time zone: BST

NATO name (regiment and rank): SAS MSGT Luke Kelly

NWO name (regiment and rank): IVG Pvt Eli Rudicroff (Hardley Play NWO)

Civilian name: Luke Wellie

Do you have a mic?: Yes

Is this the first application you made? If no, link all previous applications:

-Yes, this is my first application.

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

-No i have not received any infractions.

Do you have any experience as a high rank on MilitaryRP?:

- I have experience as a MSGT, meaning i have experience being a 2ic and 1ic squad leader within the Special Air Service. Leading ground infantry troops and my squad into war and making my best effort to come out on top and assist any other regiments with call-outs and keeping NHC informed on our lanes situation, issues or if we need assistance.

- Although I may not have maintained a high rank on this server i have experience maintaining a high rank elsewhere.

What makes you the best candidate for High Command?:

- Firstly i believe that i am a great candidate for NHC because i have great leadership skills and extremely good knowledge and experience leading teams or regiments of troops to make sure we get the outcome that is required, for example when i lead a small group of troops due to the time of day and with the absence of a high ranking officer i took control of the situation and subsequently leading the army to a major victory in a conquest war. Despite that fact, i have not led many wars for NATO, unfortunately just by not having the chance i think that I've proved myself within my regiment helping and assisting troops and guiding them to the best possible outcome for our team. I also believe that i am a cool, calm and collected individual who will remain professional at all times. Furthermore, i will also maintain a positive attitude regardless of the situation. I will always be confident in my decisions to help guide us throughout the war and any situations that may arise.

- Secondly, i will make sure to help maintain and keep NATO running at its full potential making sure all our troops and regiments are in the best state/condition and are always kept up to date with any issues that may arise. Whilst of course everything is not just going to be an issue i will always give praise to troops and regiments that deserve it and have earned it. In addition, being NHC means that i will be in a point of leadership this means i will always make sure to be strict and firm but also mindful of people's situations, this is to make sure we look professional and keep people in the right and moving in the right direction by helping them when they are unsure or just genuinely need help with certain situations.

- Additionally, i would like to mention that i can help assist in making changes or keeping documents up to date. This means that all documents will be up to date when people read them to make sure they are always following the right rules and regulations and practices of NATO or the regiment they are in.

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

- Luke joined the British army at 16, going through basic training to passing out and joining the rifles mechanised infantry where he is a rifleman using a sa80a3 as a primary weapon and an l131a1 Glock 17 as a secondary specialising in breaching and breaching equipment. After passing out of basic the British army was deployed to Afghanistan where he completed 2 tours. After 2 tours of afghan Luke reached the rank of SPC. After serving in afghan this made Luke think about what he wanted to do next, While thinking about this the British army was deployed to Iraq. Serving 1 tour in Iraq with the rifles mechanised infatry Luke decided to apply for the SAS. Going through training again was tough for Luke but he completed it and continued his career with the Sas doing another tour of Basra with the Sas and helping on the detachment called Operation Hathor the primary roles were to protect the SIS officer and to conduct surveillance and reconnaissance. Once again after a tour in Iraq, the SAS was deployed to Afghanistan where they would help and assist throughout multiple wars. Luke showed his dedication to SAS helping and training new people and current members of SAS to make sure everyone was performing to the best of their abilities. This ended up in Luke climbing through the ranks and climbing to MSGT, Once he reached MSGT Luke decided that he wanted to assist more with NATO as a whole and applied to become an officer to assist and make sure NATO was running as best as it possibly could. To this day he is still waiting to hear the outcome of his application......

Luke Kelly has been a valuable part of the leadership structure within SAS. Providing countless hours of activity and guidance.

He has successfully lead wars in absence of commanders and tirelessly built the groundworks for FOBs & Defensive positions.
Luke has probably trained and nurtured the most trainees into SAS as of late.

I feel that my time spent with Luke Kelly he does posses the qualities, drive and activity to positively influence NHC.

In my opinion he would be a great addition assisting in the continual strive for success within NATO.

He has also been supporting the server from the staffing side showing overall commitment and dedication to the community.

Best,
Hugo Lambert.

Hi Saphira,

Firstly thank you for taking the time to leave a reply here and by no means take this as me being upset over your - support, i would just like to gather information to help improve and just ideally see what others think is required. However, if you don't mind me asking what is a recommended Vtime you think a High Command member should have? As personally I have IRL commitments such as work and can't spend all day on the game.

Secondly, I have a large array of experience elsewhere which obviously I cannot mention in my application. Yes, you may be correct about I don't have experience as CC here but that's due to mostly all CC spots being taken and only just starting to free up and become available. I personally believe that I've proved myself within my regiment by being the main person who recruits trainees and doing regimental training with them. As I mentioned previously in my application due to only being MSGT, the majority of the time there is always someone who is higher which doesn't exactly give me the option to be able to lead wars and prove myself to people who aren't in my regiment.

Hello, Like Kelly. I understand you have an interest in the role of NHC however I believe you lack experience and qualities in this department. Furthermore, SAS currently only has 1 Regimental Command currently making me question the motives behind applying for this role whilst your Regiment is still needing to fill it's own power vacuum. What, I would suggest is waiting until you achieve a higher rank. Get more well known in the community and engage with other regiments, furthermore. You should strife to make a lasting impact on those around you, ensuring that your regiment is in safe hands before you apply for NATO High Command. Furthermore, lead more wars. Try your best to lead as many as you can. As, if your intension is to become a member of HC then you will have to proof to us that you can at least meet the minimum requirements, as the old saying goes "Respect is earned, not given" and it is up to you to gain the respect of those around you before you apply for this key role within the server.

In the first war on Syria yesterday, I believe it was you and another SAS present. Both of you were disorganised, struggled to actually get on point and were generally running off to other points and damaging our war effort. This doesn't fill me with confidence on if you would be a good NHC and I think you need to take a lot more initiative in NATO as it is a really struggling faction at the moment and you need to rank up much more in SAS before I'd be prepared to Support your application.

Hi Jimothy, Once again as i said to Saphira by no means is this me being upset or hurt by your -support. However the war you are talking about in syria i was infact following direct orders from NHC General Alexandria. She gave out war orders which where SAS & RMP - Ruins and the others on docks. So i am unsure what you are regarding in the terms of "damaging our war efforts".

As stated multiple times already, i haven't led many wars not because im incabale its because i haven't been able to due to other higher ranking members doing so.

I am more than happy to show you the proof/ evidence i have from yesterdays war that i followed my war orders from the General.

Thanks,

Luke

Hello,

As stated already in my other replies please do not take this as me being upset or hurt by your -support, this is just me merely wanting to respond to some of the things you have brought up.

So in my time here at MRP, i have been active pretty much everyday and keep myself to myself really so that could possibly be why you don't know me. Throughout my time being SAS as i've proven my self being a squad lead 2ic and 1ic, Training and Recuriting the majority of our troops, leading teams throughout wars and a SL. As also stated in my other replies and in my original application, I have been unable to lead wars not because i am incompetent and just genuinelly unable to lead a war its down to the factor of i have been pshyically unable to due to the higher ranks being on and taking charge and leading us throughout the wars.

Furthermore to your responses you have mentioned that NHC are leaders and they need more competent leaders. Although i may have not been a leader here i have a vast ammount of experience else where leading people to strive to be the best they possibly can and make the regiment/division they are in to be prepared and ready and able to take on all situations they may face. I am a strong competent candiate who is able to guide and assist people.

Finally to touch on something you said, "Respect is earned, not given" I believe the statment you have said to be untrue and somewhat immature and disrespectfull really. To me this shows you are only willing to accept and respect people who have done something to benefit yourself whereas you should respect everyone and be kind to all unless they have given you a direct reason

Thanks,

Luke

I'll just respond to clarify. We had Ruins fully capped but after this you took 2-3 minutes to move on Hotel, and I believe there were some SAS off point that should have realistically been controlled.

Alright, Luke Kelly.


"So in my time here at MRP, i have been active pretty much everyday and keep myself to myself really so that could possibly be why you don't know me. Throughout my time being SAS as i've proven my self being a squad lead 2ic and 1ic, Training and Recuriting the majority of our troops, leading teams throughout wars and a SL.

Regardless of your work within your squadron, your no less competent then any other Squad Lead. Stating that you've lead a squadron is no accomplishment, doing a good job is commendable. However it is expected of you to do so. To put effort into your squad, and to lead it. Expand upon it's functions, and ensure that it's active is a requirement to become Company Command in any regiment. Recruitment is a regimental duty, which isn't important for NHC and is essentially. I don't understand why you decided to tell me that, as a Squadron Leader I would expect you to recruit people into the Special Air Service. Just as I would expect my SLs to do the same for my regiment, and I share equal responsibility in that department as it is an important function for regimental health. Both CCs and SLs have to ensure that the regiment is active, if you weren't doing then you wouldn't be pulling your weight and ensuring that your Regiment is well sustained.

"Although i may have not been a leader here i have a vast ammount of experience else where leading people to strive to be the best they possibly can and make the regiment/division they are in to be prepared and ready and able to take on all situations they may face. I am a strong competent candiate who is able to guide and assist people."

Well you haven't show us any of this yet, simply making a statement "Well, I LeAd GoOd" isn't proofing anything. Again, reapply once you're a CC and have actually lead wars. You have again misinterpreted what I said. I said "furthermore, lead more wars. Try your best to lead as many as you can" I'm not sure where leading people to strive to be the best they can comes into that equation, it makes absolutely no sense in the context. What you said is fine, and is an important aspect of NHC. And, is also an important role as a Squad Lead. However, that isn't what I said. And, I thin you know that.

"Finally to touch on something you said, "Respect is earned, not given" I believe the statment you have said to be untrue and somewhat immature and disrespectfull really. To me this shows you are only willing to accept and respect people who have done something to benefit yourself whereas you should respect everyone and be kind to all unless they have given you a direct reason"

I am unsure of how you gained this impression? I never said that "I Only Respect people when I have something to gain" I stated a simple well known fact that it is up to you to gain the respect of those around you before you apply for this key role within the server. Meaning, you need to be not only more well known within the community. But respected, without that. You won't ever become NHC, if you took offense to that then you need to grow up lad. Respect is something which is earnt, you don't get it by existing. You have to work for it, gain a persons trust and show that you're to be a trusted person and member of this community. I don't know how you gained this impression of a simple statement, however what you need to do is sit down and think for a second as typing shit out isn't going to get you into NHC.

Overall, I do not think for one minute that you would be a competent member of NATO HC. All you had to do is take on honest criticism. Leading wars, is an incredibly important aspect of being NHC and you've repeatedly tried to brush this aspect off. You don't need to, to be frank you're an MSgt. and with that in-experience comes the fact you will not be able to properly lead wars it takes time, to develop strategies. However even with this in mind, NHC have given *some* slack in past for MSgts. applying for this position I do not believe you will be one of them due to how you've dealt with this application. I am going to give you some advice, for the next time you make an application please do the following:

• Ensure that your responses are following proper format, because they are not;
• Do not take responses personally, and make statements like "I believe the statment you have said to be untrue and somewhat immature and disrespectfull really. To me this shows you are only willing to accept and respect people who have done something to benefit yourself whereas you should respect everyone and be kind to all unless they have given you a direct reason"
• Accept the feedback of others, and use it to improve yourself as a person;
• Use proper Grammar and spelling in both replies and on your application;

Dear Luke Kelly,

We would like to express our gratitude for your interest in the position.

We regret to inform you that we are in disagreement that you are eligible to hold the position.
The reason for your denial is that the NHC team believe that your experience as a MSGT does not qualify yet for you to move up to High Command. This is due to the fact that you've not lead a war NATO wide and NHC believe you lack the necessary leadership experiences.

Feel free to re-apply again in 2 weeks!

Denied

Once again, we would like to thank you for your interest in the position.​
