I support this article and agree with the information in it.

Excellent article.

my mind is telling me no but my body is telling me yes

can you give a link to his article, so we know what you are talking about?

>Might it not have occurred had you had the same privileges you understood you would receive the first time around? That's a story I don't know the ending to, and believe what you might... you don't know the ending to it either, so an article that implies otherwise is dubious at best.

So your argument here is that nothing could have changed if anything was different because it didn't happen that way? Right..

I agree with this Article and fully support it

Damn, a full coherent article. Thanks Deificus! Succint and to the point.

@Sigma Chi ELRC: Sorry about that, the link to HR's article has been included.

@Garven Dreis: My argument is that hindsight is 20/20; we know how things went because that's how things went. I'd love if someone could show me what would happened had things been different. For that matter, I'd love for anyone to show me what the winning lottery numbers were on Saturday (seriously). There's just no way to know how things would be different, if at all.

The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.

Great article.

❤ Deificus.

Dei and HR are both right in varying amounts. HR's right: the relationship between the CJS and the POTUS has, on occasion, been sadly lacking. Sometimes the POTUS is at fault, and sometimes the JCS is at fault. And Dei's right: if the problem were systemic, then no POTUS would work well with the JCS. And yet sometimes the relationship has been excellent between them.
It's a matter of people. Different people act differently.

Comment.

Skimmed it... agree with what I read... but I will not read it until you have an actual conversation with me, which you haven't in months. :/ My feelings are quite hurt.

I support this article and agree with the information in it.

Just an excellent article,
thank you

Flashback: I post daily on the exec-jcs board, then have you post once in the entire 30 days I was president only to say I should communicate more.

I have not yet heard a compelling reason why President Richardson was denied access to the JCS's chan. Did you believe that he was a security threat?

Excellent article. It's a shame more drama had to be dragged up since it gets nothing done but some people have to be in the center of the spotlight.

the JCS works good. i didnt tell the presidents shit when i ran the CIA.

The JCS are advisers to any President ELECTED, which they are not. If a President is denied access to the areas he/she needs it is treason on the part of the JCS. The military is not running this country, even though they think they are in charge. Give gold to the military only if the President is granted access and since there is no way to know if they have actually done that...no gold for them. Instead give their gold to the many Militia units which have sprung up.

Agree with Cromstar on this one. Thanks Deificus for this amazing article and for putting some sense on the matter

You raise up some good points. I would like to see the JCS communicate with the public more if possible. I consider myself to be a well informed citizen but I honestly have no idea who is on the JCS at this current point in time. You said you retired your position so who took your place? I think an article that gets put out whenever a JCS position change takes place would be very helpful.

Gulden, HisAirness is taking over as Commandant, he is the RL Croatian that General Deificus spoke of in the last paragraph. We are awaiting the official announcement of the new Vice-Commandant. We are also aware of the lack of media coming out, we are going to select a writer soon for the Marines so more articles will hopefully be forthcoming. It's hard since some, like me, are soldiers, no writers. Pen is not mighter. 😛

Also, we have been focused on the transition into v2 instead of stuff like media. There has been a bit of turnover as well due to people either growing bored of the game and leaving because v2 isn't something they enjoy playing. We are also adapting to the new budget cuts, which we know is absolutely necessary (not Congress's fault) but still hard to swallow.

Good article.

Nice article, v/s

Nice article, v/s

Good Article

Excellent article. Voted and Subbed. D has been through some of the rockiest moments in JCS throughout the year-plus I've been serving in the eUS military as well as during the times when I served overseas. He gives great insight which few of us possess, the ability to take a step back and reassess the situation, regardless of how personal or immediate the situation may be. I've seen JCS members come and go, myself being one of them, and I'm glad to say that D was able to join the JCS but continue to be one of the many JCS advisors who will continue our great nation forward.

I guess no one gets the concept of not fanning the flames.

If you think this is fanning the flames, you must have your eyes covered on everything else.

Great article, voted and trackbacked.

No HR is a self-absorbed little boy who enjoys the spotlight, the more articles that are made on his account to either support or to bash him "fans the flames".

This happens every time he throws a temper tantrum or a fit and posts some kind of controversial loudmouthed article, people get all up in arms and start posting articles about him getting his name out there giving him more popularity.

He's been doing it for 2 years, the same exact friggin' MO; yet you all keep falling into his trap providing him with more fuel for his ego or his eventual presidential run.

good article, thanks for the response. it's nice to see both sides of the issue.

Both sides are very compelling; just don't let this turn into a Politics vs Militar ywar.

Well said.

"As far as Krems goes, he does have IRC access to the JCS; I setup his access at... well, let's call it "#notamazing" as soon as I had the chance. I do not have the access level at err... #amazingchannel to do the job; but he does have direct access to members of the JCS. Just as with you, I have made sure of it."

Honestly, and I'm not trying to be a dick here, but don't you think that sounds like paltry access to the JCS?

Also; good article.

Voted. Cromstar's comment x2.

"tend to stay away from the eUS Forum is because for the large part, it is an endless pool of spam and rage."

Perfectly described, hence why many simply lurk to acquire information out of necessity rather than active participation.

And I regret that you've retired, Deificus. Good luck with RL.

My head aches with all of the win D is pouring out....
