in retrospect, it's kind of insanity if Drago doesn't get HoS. it's something I've been wringing my head around for some time- are there all time ten better security players than drago?
i think they're intelligent enough to learn how to communicate in groups properly. a lot of the issues listed here are my issues as well- people are allowed to take things too personally.
leading a team is something that'd come with time, but if drago's denied, an important question arises for future apps- does it actually matter how /good/ someone is at security, or does being nice enough throughout a certain amount of hours automatically qualify someone?
i guess the definition of what's /good/ is different now, but it's not like Drago's stuck in 2012. he's more than cognizant of his prior misdoings (which just meant you were good at the game once upon a time). could he be a dick? sure, yeah, that could be an issue- but personality issues if the player's intelligent enough have a 1:1 ratio of being amended. i was a major dick for a long time before i realized it.
you don't always have to like the authority that often acts as the last line of defense against the station. you always will respect it though- and how many heads of securities would be more respected than drago immediately? two? three? how many are active?
if there was ever a player to say alright, let's give him a flier, it's drago. the worst that could happen is he gets de bereted in a month. i'd bet my own purple and HoS status + a year ban that he never gets debereted however. his EQ will develop, his empathy's already there, he just needs to be a little more cognizant that it's a fucking spaceman game and not to be a dick to others at times. he, of all people, will figure it out.
If we don't reward excellent security play, what gets rewarded? You can always improve on personality- and if not, the easiest remedy is to deberet. We've had a lot more mentors lose mentor, gain mentor again, and then lose it again than people lose HoS. However- you can't improve an incredibly adept attention to detail like Drago has & you can't improve on actually caring about what happens in the round. If I were to apply for HoS today based on what's newly considered acceptable, would I make it?
tl;dr, he's good, very good, and has the capacity to improve. it'd be highway robbery for drago not to be bereted. i'm willing to give up my own to get him it
