I had high hopes of Bornholm but so far it has only been a disappointment. Had a fly-over in Zeus and saw nothing that stood out to host a cool mission on either... 

Sadly that was only because cTAB was removed from the modpack and the new version is broken, but who are we to judge someone if they need a cTAB to not shoot a friendly 200m away?
 
But yeah Stratis is brilliant and I don't think we really need Bornholm, it's just a large mod with less value than it's weight I believe.

you know...becausethe last gamenight din't really happen at all.......

First off, this post is being made with the best interests of AW in mind. Be aware there is a good chance I WILL be name dropping in this post. Take it as you will.
 
Stanhope:
You are the definition of condescending, and also the definition of every word under that. You should be nowhere near the Admin team, you might as well have paid money to get your tag. Just because someone can code and submit player reports does not make them an immediate candidate for an Admin. I, myself, actually worked my way up the ranks, from member>FA>Spartan>Admin. I also earned the respect of those around me.
Unlike you Stan, who jumped from FA>Admin in about a month or less. I’m fairly sure the consensus in the team when you applied was to let you in because you’d be useful as a coder, and most of us had no idea who you were at the time. Also I love how you just ripped me off the Public mod team without talking to me.
Just my 2 cents on you.
 
Core staff:
COMMUNICATE AND INTERACT. In my time as an Admin you guys just can't do that. People get promoted to CS and just disappear into the wilderness and never interact with the community anymore - you leave that to the Admins. Also, whenever I brought something to you guys I more often than not never got an answer back. Also what happened to that huge meeting we had a month back now? Just lost in the system I guess Origins. AhoyWorld is burning and you guys just sit around.
 
Admins: The true MVPs, you guys put up with most of the shit, but not all of you. Some of you also suffer from the communication and interaction disease. A lot of complaints I got was that the team wasn't open to the community at all with what was going on, and as per usual, this issue was brought up, chatted about and then nothing happened just like with everything else. Nothing will happen because of this post.
 
I'm just being extremely blunt here.
 
Anyone who knows me  knows I wouldn't be typing any of this unless there was a real issue. Hide this post if you want, issue me a warning point, whatever; but know this, a lot of people are with me on this as you’ll see it happen before your eyes. You will just be shooting yourself in the foot.
 
These days this is the only way the get you guys to listen, so I would hope this turns into a nice post debating about all these issues - not a shit flinging thread.

I do not think creating a new role that goes around with anti-tank would be good. Anti-tank is very heavy, limiting what main weapon they can carry OR limiting the number of rounds they carry meaning they are less effective against the armour they are meant to stop. I approve of getting rid of the grenadier role however, grenades are very rarely used and I feel there is a reluctance to use them without a commanders permission which makes the grenadier feel kind of enslaved whilst everyone else can go whilly nilly with their assault rifles.
 
I think FSG should remain. Sure replacing the grenadier role with AT is a good move, but they will lack the amount of munitions FSG can have (if they take a crate of ammo with them). FSG provides the mass anti-armour role that a single rifleman trying to balance a good rifle with his ability to counter armour never will. 
 
I also advise that if FSG should remain, the rules for FSG (and other roles) are made much more obvious.
 
Currently the link to the rules they should follow are buried at the bottom of the setup room (which very few people will actually read as they will either be: new and focusing on how they get in the EU 3 channel rather than what looking at the text OR a regular who will go into the setup room and straight back into Arma and never look at TS until he stops playing at which point he'll just close the program).
 
Also, attempting to search for "rules" on the forums results in a post that contains rules that aren't precise enough: 
 
The in-depth rules should be pinned somewhere more obvious (not in TS) as there are rules in the detailed rules that aren't mentioned there which affect most roles.
 

If you see a team doing something they shouldn't and you're in command, tell them. If they don't comply tell them more direct. After you've done this and they still don't comply (almost never happens in my experience) get an admin.
 
Except in my opinion they didn't. Apart from that you obviously can't force people to pick a slot, this rule was (originally) never intended to apply to slotting: you could fill any role the rules allowed you to, no permission from acting command needed. This seems to have changed recently, but when I command I hold the principle that the only thing I do when a slot is filled I don't want/need, I just mention it to the player(s) occupying the slot(s), but never force them out of it. I adjust and make it work.
 
I don't agree with 3, I guess it depends on the players.
Point 4 is valid, but a 5 man FSG team already isn't allowed without a full alpha, so if people follow the rules that shouldn't happen.
 
As for your solution, I don't agree. A CAS bird is even more prone to misconduct than FSG is, speaking from experience. As for the "lol point and click no skill izi pizi tank dead", for an FSG team equipped with a SMAW or even a MAAWS to take down a target requires teamwork: someone gets the range, another makes sure that after the gunner fires a new round is supplied to the gunner.
 
In conclusion: just because some team isn't as effective as another doesn't mean that team needs to get killed off. If that was the case, we would all be flying jets, Apaches or driving tanks and IFVs.
