And if you gave every role a different name how would other Corp CEO's know what your member roles are. Sorry but that would be a mistake.
While some of these ideas are over-complicated, most of this thread is clamoring for some amount of customization. Why would two directors running things differently affect you? Why would other corp CEOs care what individual members in another corp do? Why did you need 3 posts to write all that out?
For my two cents, the squad member role should be kept in; its a simple way to remove the need for all these holding corps everyone is using to prevent AWOXing. Being able to re-name stock roles would probably be enough to keep most of those asking for customization happy, even if they can't fine tune their attributes.
Perhaps taking the pre-defined roles in the OP and assigning a meta-level to each, (CEO=10, Director=9, squad member=1, no position=0) then allow the corp to copy and rename each to assign out to its players. CCPs servers (and people like Teddy Tough Guy) can just look at the Meta-level to know what someones actual role/abilities are, while the corp can come up with whatever crazy misspelled titles it wants. A corp that wants separate titles for "recruiter" and "training officer," but doesn't care if they have the same abilities, could have both just be re-named "personnel directors." All would be the same Meta-level, so to the system it doesn't get too complex. |

change squad member to recruit or grunt and i'll bite. you want to give them a title to work out of. plus you may not trust recruits because of AWOXing.
I don't think you understand what they're saying. They would have to work UP to squad member. Squad member would exist solely to avoid AWOXing by new recruits. |

Why would you need military ranks within squad roles? Why would you use military ranks for a corporation? I've got news for all you 14 year old military-wannabe's out there: mercenaries don't care about stripes on your arm or shiny things on your collar.
Of course, if we get to rename positions as been suggested by a few people in this thread, you can base your role titles off of your JROTC unit and real world veterans will roll their eyes at you. |
