Goon servers you play:3 & 4
Reason for application: The beret is not something worn lightly. I've spent a substantial amount of time in security and with it have learned a great deal both from HOSII and officers alike. the opportunity to lead security has always intrigued me to further my ability to be a good leader in both times of peace and combat. I want to show that officers aren't just a hammer but a well-oiled machine whose greatest strength is their fellow officers by their sides. HOSII hold a great deal of power and the ability to decide life and death to those who oppose them. I hope if approved to help show my fellow men and woman of security both old and new good ways to not just be effective but fun for both sides of the gun.
Security experience (300 word minimum): I started my security career as a detective on goon 3 about roughly under a year ago and was...frankly clueless at first bumbling my way through the motions before being shown how to use my equipment. forensics took a bit to understand but once I got a grip on it there was nothing stopping me from moving to full-fledged officer work with a little assistant on the side. I've solved a number of cases through both forensics and interrogation....some more unorthodox than others using methods of intimidation or bargaining to get what I want out of any dirty crimer who would dare to commit such acts under my watch. that is not to say I have beaten my way through it. I have found that some filthy criminals are more receptive to a shred of kindness and understanding. I've work with a number of HOSII, officers, detectives, and assistants and have trained a number of people under me in the tools of the trade and our operations. I have also processed and coordinated many security teams in the absence of an HOS while also working closely with a few on hard cases with little to go on. I can confidently guide and teach other members of security through hard shifts and dead quiet ones alike. I also know when enough is enough...I used to be afraid and feel bad about performing executions due to just ending someone's fun, but I have over time learned when someone needs to be put down...and when to show mercy. HOSII, when present, are the backbone of any security force and the individual tasked with holding their team together while making sure things flow smoothly and in a way that is fun for everyone involved. with my experience and understanding of what is not just asked but required of me I feel up to the task. even if I do not get approved i hope to regardless keep guiding new officers and even old ones on the path most entertaining to us all.

Answer two or more of the following:
- What advice would you give to other sec players? firstly communication. a lone sec is a dead sec. don't leave your officers in the dark and die in some dank dark corner. even a measly traitor will always have better equipment than a lone officer. work with your team and help each other...you're in this together. secondly do not hesitate to ask for help. your fellow officers and detectives out there are happy to teach you everything you want and need to know. we are in this together. and thirdly judge your enemies fairly. if a clown has been making a harmless ruckus smashing people with pies don't go beat the hell out of them.....tickets can deter some individuals. and if a raging traitor or changeling have just killed 3-5 people over the course of the round and you can prove it....perhaps it's time to cut them loose.....and lastly don't hesitate to take breaks from time to time. a refreshed mind is a happy mind....stressing over the job can just be unfun and burn you out harder than if you enjoyed what you are doing.
- What was one of your favorite security moments? (Either playing as a sec officer or interacting with one)
OOF this one was a while ago....before argent ward became an HOS I killed him and drug him to cloning. once he was done I locked him in the monkey dome on nadir and brough him some rum. we talked for I think about 15-20 minutes about various things including morals before I gave him his gear and set him loose to continue his hunt. he killed me later.....a fight well struck.
- What game improvements or changes do you think would benefit security players? Allow detnet to run partials....that's all i got.
- Describe any differences in your playstyle when part of a full security team and when being the only security officer. as a detective on a full team, I usually hang back outside of forensics or really bad fights. and as the only officer I try and be as patient as possible with things while taking them one step at a time. trying not to be overwhelmed and making time to help people who stop me if I can.
- Write a poem to convey your thoughts on security/NanoTrasen/space/bees/anything related to SS13. I close my eyes. the honking like explosions. clowns wash away the mind
- What's a security gimmick that you've ran or wanted to run? permits for things is something I wanted to try with help from an HOP. drivers' licenses, culinary licenses ETC. enforced by tickets and the occasional smack in the face with a pair of dirty gloves.....that and more monkey lawyers. you can never have too many monkeys in a suit.
