I'm well aware. As much as I can prevent it, there won't be chaos. I have a structure in mind; no extraneous soapboxing, just the facts.
[ Or in other words he won't be making a public service announcement, and there won't be nine heads of department in a room together bickering for half an hour. ]
Communications is my department, remember? I can handle that.
[ she's not going to start any squabbling or bickering; that is frankly more jax's territory than hers. anderson is too much of a soldier, for all that she's not actually a soldier.
that also means not engaging nathan in that kind of exchange, now. ]
A technological structure. I'll open with a statement about the situation the ship is in, the general need for volunteers. That's it, then the main post goes live, and each of us, as representatives of our department, make our own pitches, show our faces, let everyone know we're just passengers like them, direct them to our department resources, invite them to our training days--whatever. That's out space.
If people have skills and don't know where to go, they'll be able to respond requesting advice, and we can all show how well we work together by getting that person settled in the right place.
It's structured like that, it's all in one place, newcomers and existing passengers can listen to everyone and throw their lot in where they'd be most use, but most of all everyone gets to see that we're all on the same page together, all working for the same goal. That's more important than anything else.
So individual recruitment posts merged into one? I think the introduction should be in text format and give people an idea of what's to come. The main post at one glance — which departments there are.
[ text is more neutral and easier to be seen at one glance. it'll tell people who is presenting what when, too, so order of presentation in the main post will matter less. ]
I agree, text trumps voice after the jump no matter who's looking. You get someone talking and unless they're interested after fifteen seconds they blur out the voice and move on--even if they're new, and what they're being told is important.

Thoughts? You can be tough, I can take it.

[ good that you agree. ] I'd like to see the text section beforehand. I imagine the others will, too.
