For how long have you played on CG SCP: I have been familiar with Civil Gamer's SCP-RP for a long time, having been a part of the community in its earlier stages. After taking a substantial break, I've returned and have been actively playing for quite some time (since about 2023 till now without a break). This experience has since given me a deep understanding of the server's dynamics, as well as how the community is working on the UK's server - having had the opportunity to possess a strong understanding on how things are being done.

Why are you applying for Site Advisor?
I'm applying for Site Advisor because at this stage of my journey within the community, I feel like it might just be the perfect place to levrage my current skills and to enhance my roleplay opportunities. Having already acquired a substancial ammount of experience (as a Sr. CL4 member), I have developed an extensive understanding on how the departments interact with each other and how some can be improved upon.
As my whitelist history may indicate, I've held roles that span from combatives to non-combative, which I believe have given me a balanced perspective, which is crucial for any Site Administration member.
I genuinely enjoy working closely with people and liasing - as such - becoming a Site Advisor would enable me to channel my current experience in-order to benefit the community. I'm also eager to give a hand, as I would like to represent the Site Administration by being a strong and active presence.

What makes you suitable for Site Administration?:
Experience: Currently by holding a Sr. CL4 position, I've extensively collaborated with several departments and regiments, liased, created plenty of roleplaying oportunities, and have improved my leadership skills. As mentioned, my overall experience that spanned to several departments as well as characters has equiped me with just the right tools in-order to possess a balanced perspective on our server, and I consider that to be a key factor on any Site Administration member. After all, it would only make sense for any Site Administration member to know how the Site functions. All in all, I believe that I'm proactive, professional and can easily identify strenghts and areas needing improvement, all thanks to my prior experiences.

Communication: Throughout my journey, I've consistently demonstrated and took charge during high-pressure situations, namely in resolving conflicts, taking in complaints and leading some operations. I consider myself one of the most approchable people on the server, most learning only occurs when you hear what others have to say, and I've always had that mindset, I've always been learning and communicating.

Documentation: Pretty much all of my held whitelists have always been document oriented, starting from Executive Researcher up until where I am currently - a Commissioner. With the Internal Security Department, when I first joined, I would like to believe that my contributions were impactful to the department's rework, I've sucessfuly drafted and adapted some handbooks, departmental guidelines, and detailed some Operations. My ability to produce clear, detailed, and helpful documentation should serve me well in the Site Advisor role, where documentation plays a major role, I've always taken great efforts into reviewing documents, and always made sure to propose new changes where they made sense.

Roleplay Creation: Although some may not have seen it, I have created quite a lot of roleplay scenarios whose aim was always to provide a memorable experience towards our community - though limited in resources sometimes, I've always tried my best to do well. I've collaborated before with staff members, in-order to further expand some roleplay scenarios (the most recent ones should be viewable in the lore file below, as for older ones I'll also post them separately). I see Site Administration as an ideal position to further utilize my abilities, in-order to create interesting and dynamic roleplay as well as interactions for the community.

Where I'm headed: I am dedicated to mentoring future CL4 members currently, consistently striving to guide and prepare promising CL3 personnel for greater responsabilities. During my Commissioner tenure, I've always taken a great effort in making sure everyone is well prepared, and have always made sure that everyone is heard, no matter who they are. From my first tenure of Executive Researcher to then Overseer Assistant to where I am now, I've always attempted to mark them by being proactive and dedicated. I'm looking forward to giving Site Administration a new active presence on site, that aims to represent them to the highest degree.
Below are some examples of some projects/roleplay that I've created, that should show my previous experience.
  • Assisting Site Administration: Collaborated in the creation of the Wellbeing Survey to enhance staff morale and identify areas of improvement;
  • Personnel Interviews: Conducted extensive interviews through various clearance levels, focusing on loyalty assessment and integrity as well as wellbeing.
  • Specialized in Surveillance: As a Senior Overseer Assistant, I've was always focusing on Surveillance, actively engaging in surveillance operations across the site to detect any ill behavior.
  • Projects: Though I cannot remember all the information, I've created several projects that are essentially a joint cooperation between the Medical Department, Research Department and the Epsilon-11 personnel. I managed to involve to some extent personnel from lower to higher clearances to a few projects - This however is still on-going, and if necessary, more details can be given. At essence, the projects culminate in one big project that is being created to address emerging Council threats (Project Rebirth; Project Venom Shield and others which are on going which I cannot disclose yet).
  • Council Support: I've suggested several orders for the Council, always demonstrating a proactiveness and pointing out lack of morale.
  • ECA Trial: Reported significant security violations of an ECA trespassing on Floor 3 jurisdiction and exposing secrets to a D-Class personnel, which lead to a series of roleplay oportunities on this, as more evidence was then gathered on the ECA before trial.
  • Certification and Training Program Proposal: Finished a Certification training program.
Bigger Projects:
  • Project Chimera Strike: Chimera Strike started out as a comprehensive initiative that was created by me to enhnance the Foundation's capabilities in managing external threats through the unethical usage of SCP objects. This project, acts an an umbrella for several projects that have happened and assigned to several departments. This project is/was at heart, the creation of a new SCP-008 instance that can be deployed to the Council's desire. It emphasizes cross-department collab and was on-going for a long time.
  • Project Rebirth: Rebirth focused on the application of regenerative properties found in certain SCP objects we have on site to advance emergency medical treatment and recovery protocols. This project was pivotal in exploring therapeutic and emergency trauma care aiming to revolutionise Medical practices within the Foundation. This project required coordination with the Department Director of Medicine along with several Consultants, where a meeting was held individually in-order to assess what resources would be necessary to be spent, along with personnel evaluation, in-order to only to give an oportunity to lower clearance personnel to work on it aswell. A bridge was then set by me between the Medical Department, Research Department along with the Epsilon-11 personnel, where each department's leadership was assessed through and feedback was heard. The project outcome was a total success having created a new path for trauma emergency care, which was at core the main goal, which is something that has great roleplaying potential to come, as my intention was to utilise it during situations where mass casualities are happening (breaches, raids etc...). By closely working with SCP-682 samples, this project seeked to harness and replicate regenerative capabilities, leading to breakthrough on site on how to treat catastrophic injuries and diseases. This was all conducted in several stages, with due coordination between departments.
  • Project Venom Shield: Venom Shield explored the defensive applications of our Site's biological anomalies. Specifically by utilizing the properties of SCP-008-2 and SCP-427-1 (with the introduction of SCP-049-2 later) in-order to develop biocontainment and countermeasures agains't biological threats. The focus was to create protocols and treatments that can be deployed rapidly in the field, enhancing the readiness out of site agains't biological threats. This was at heart a project that while allowing the Site to benefit from an added study, a bio-weapon agent was created covertly, as a minor contribution towards Project Chimera Strike. This project encompassed the Research Department along with the Epsilon-11, the Medical Personnel as well as E&TS, and was key to finding out a loop-hole in the older Research Policy, which then involved me having a meeting with two Ethics Comittee Members, two Department Directors of Research coordinating between them and O5 Council, in-order to push for a change in the older policy. The change was then implemented. The roleplay that came through this project was nothing short of great to the involved personnel, several meetings were held where coordination and leadership strategies were a must, we had to adapt the SCP-008's chamber along with E&TS in-order to include extra laboratory equipment (something that was to be coordinated with game masters in-order to create an event).
  • Active Counter Ethics Operations: The main goal was to essentialy act as a screen to the Council's interests. To do this, I was managing the creation of several fake projects that can be distributed in strategic places along the Site, in-order to cover the Council's operations. I was leading the operation by creating several fake projects, setting up meetings with Alpha-1 Commanding Officers in-order to optimise the distribution of said projects, meetings were held and Alpha-1 specialists are called into the meeting where I coordinated with them and studied where these projects are planted to make sure the Ethics Comittee gets their hands on them. This doesn't stop here, as these projects are created to such detail that they require the same amount of effort than any other regular project, I ensured each project gets their according fake weekly report, fake Research/Project lead member's signature, and all of this is being done simultaneously, with the Council having currently (at the time of the project) two documents in distribution, along with two more documents ready for distribution once the opportunity is right. I am managing the creation of 4 concurrent projects along with their respecting weekly reports just for this operation in specific that was ongoing I'll be glad to share even more details if desired.
  • Certification and Training Programs: This is an initiative that I was working on that is was established to standerdize and elevate training across the Foundation, ensuring that all personnel are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to handle their tasks. The program covers various aspects of the SCP Foundation management, tailored to different departmental needs, currently I was working on it for it to be implemented in lacking/failing departments, this was also to be done in colaboration with Site Administration, O5 Council. and several Dpt. Leads. The program was designed to foster ongoing development, keeping personnel updated as well as motivated. My end goal was that by doing it, newer and older department members, will be experiencing performance increases along with new increased morale - to do this, I intended on creating a course, depending on the departmental need that can be used to address unfulfilling and underperforming departments.
  • Forced Labor Operations: Created a program where D-Class was utilised in-order to perform forced labour laudry work, all under the guise of an ethical work program. Later then might have escalated into a forced mines (credit to Merrick) where we forced missbehaving A-1 to mine for the Foundation.
  • Honorable mentions: Operation Phantom Files, this operation's aim was to involve the Surface Operations into a colaborative effort by infiltrating misinformation within GOIs - along many other projects.
What are the responsibilities of Site Administration in RP?:
Being the 'primary' authority of Site-65, Site Administration has multiple essential responsabilities, which are important to the good functioning of our site, namely:
  • Department Oversight: Actively monitor, evaluate and guide all of the department activities, ensuring the correct standards are being met and addressing any performance issues (in a constructive manner).
  • Advanced Armory Authorization: Authorizing access to the advanced armory during the appropriate times (e.g: Severe Breaches).
  • Roleplay creation/facilitation: Actively promote roleplay scenarios, whether through small interactions or possibly larger-scale stories. Being present is important.
  • Policies & Documentation: Ensuring that site-wide policies are up to date and necessary while liading with Site Command.
  • Appointing: Appointing the new department Directors for every department with the exception of the Internal Security Department and appointing the Commanders of every MTF with the exception of A-1 and O-1 (as well as appointing and help manage Site Administration staff).
  • Tribunals: Colaborate with ISD and Ethics on tribunal creation.
  • Testing authorisation: Authorising tests that aren't required to be authorised by Site Command.
  • Trainings: Authorisation of part of site closure in-order to perform training scenarios, or events.
  • Bridge: Serve as a first point of contact for departments and help solve conflicts that may arise.
  • Department Evaluation: Evaluate reviews of the departments, and if necessary conduct audits of failing departments.
  • External Relations: Supervise GOI relations with the Site (while respecting DEA).
  • Emergency Management: Manage the on-site emergencies.
  • Following Orders: Following the orders of the Site Managers, Site Director (and even Site Command).
All in all, Site Administration ensures that our site does not crumble, and ensures every department is acting accordingly, proposing slight corrections where necessary, in addition, Site Administration liases and acts as a bridge, where communication is key.
Please give some lore about your Site Administration character and what storylines they would be involved in:

- Gregory is one of the best commissioners I had on my side during my tenure as management, and I believe he would be the perfect site advisor.
- He is active, professional and has enough experience to go for an O5 position.
- His ability to keep in-character things, in-character is amazing

Good luck Gregory! If I don't see you as Site Manager by the time I come back, then I will complete countless acts of violence.
