Let's all please remember to be civil, thanks.
I will say that I do support what Adena is doing. We had some new elements in the Republic this timeline, mainly S13 and SOLAG, but we've been using the same leadership and RPing set up for the Republic for the last five years. In fact, I was the one who created the position of Supreme Commander -- IN 2006!
And let me tell you, the Republic never really won in any timeline. The Sith dominated them in the first and second timelines. The third timeline doesn't count since that was barely an all out war anyway. The Hutts were most certainly winning in this timeline.
It was time to take a step back and re-evaluate how the Republic was structured both OOC and IC, because it's clear that the Republic wasn't working well. Like Adena said, this isn't about punishing people, rewarding people, or anything else like that. It was about putting in people who have proven to be effective -- Adena, Will, and Boli have proven this countless times -- so there was a better framework to build from.
And with that framework in place, more can be built up with more people in other higher ranking positions. The Republic has always stagnated. Now it's in a position to evolve and progress.
