Okay I've heard in the last two weeks more bitching about training threads than I can shake a stick at. Regarding training threads, we all know there is no point if you're a qualified RPer capable of showing that in a profile of going through acolyte/padawan/whatever-the-republic/hutt variant of training is. If for instance I told Bac that because he never completed his acolyte training and leapfrogged ahead so he needs to go back and do it, he would laugh at me.
Now I'm assuming that we were put in charge of our respective factions because we were voted in based on our respective ability to lead said factions, or perceived ability at the very least. It is with that notion that I would like to bring up a solution to training threads, and lack of activity in training threads due to people taking on more than one padawan/whatever at a time. It's rather simple and used to be okay until last month for whatever reason when it was taken away completely (although I didn't realize it was taken away from the faction leaders) which is to say;
The choice of who becomes a crusader/knight and who becomes an acolyte/padawan.
I think that choice should lie with the faction leaders, as it is our job after all to well, lead the faction. Any fallout from our choices of who to promote without training, which should and would be used sparingly, would fall on us, and all the admins have to do is say "take it up with (insert faction leaders name here)."
Alright, now that my ramble is out of the way, discussion time.
