Fire Department of the City of Liberty - Feedback Thread/Change Log

[Karty]

@Skygee has been promoted to Battalion Chief of 32 Battalion.

@Adam has been promoted to Captain of Broker Station.

@Sid has rejoined the faction and will be Lieutenant of Broker Station.

 

With these changes this once again fills our Command spots for our launching station.

 

I have decided on a paygrade for all department ranks based off of real life figures and changing them slightly to fit the system at play. This and the overall first budget request will be submitted later today or tomorrow. I will be releasing our payrates to the public once it's submitted. Our future budget requests will also be ICly released to the public.

 

We are currently about to change how we handle Special Operations once again. This should be the final largescale change to it and the goal is to provide more advancement opportunities for faction members.

The factions initial pay can be found below.

 

There has been one change to the way our ranking works. The initial goal was to do Firefighter I - IV as a sort of progression path without actually being a new rank per say. Due to the way the budgeting system is going to work I've decided to hold off on that for now. The biggest drawback with this system is if we fill the slots at say Firefighter IV then no one else can progress up to that level unless someone above them leaves the faction. While this is fine for Officer spots it is not entirely normal for regular members. We will be using BFI as the testbed for that sort of progression system to see how it works. If seen to be successful we will implement it across other parts of the Faction. In the meantime @Skygee and @Jorgensen have ideas on other forms of progression for Firefighters and I will be working on some for the EMS side as well.
