Admittedly, this is more of a statement than a question. You see there are a few people who have made some valid points regarding the potential value of a civilian presence here or RP. However, I am still not sold on the idea (as if I have any say). It would go a long way of the civilian population would make a little more effort when it comes to their profiles. The way I see it, you are guests here. If
You really want to be taken seriously tell us about yourself. I take the time to look and see who is commenting on things tha interest me. If I open your profile and there is basically nothing there that identifies you, I am moving on. I am very curious to see what others think.

I may look like a civi...but I did paid for my fair share in the military just like you; hahaha and now my two son's are in the military...I kind of agree with you but again that is up to whomever is running the RP how much they are going to let civilians get on here and bring their point of view. Hope you friend me or add me to your contacts...lol

It is nice to know where we civilians stand and that our support is not want or appreciate. Does the military train rudeness or were you born with it? I was married to a military person and trust me those so called civilians your married to pay their dues back here being both mom and dad, acting like everything is perfect when our world is upside down as well. At least we offer support if it isn't wanted fine but rude ...really representation is as important as presentation. I must say after reading some of the comments made by the 9 military personnel I have was anything but proud. Rude is Rude. Thank you SFC and the other 8 for putting the rest of us in our meager places.

Traci Priest, this is a community for veterans and those currently serving, or atleast that's what most of us thought when signing up. I know that I sure as hell didn't join up to hear from military dependents. if I wanted that I'd poke my head into an FRG group on facebook. What you call rude I call servicemembers expressing a sense of betrayal from those who run this site by allowing your presence.

Since I'm responding here, "Servicemember/civilian," why do you list yourself as such? If you served in the past then you qualify for the "V" veteran tag next to your name like I have next to mine. Keeping your name and rank private is understandable to me, but if you truly served then your account should reflect that.

I have a feeling some spouses of AC, RC, NG or veterans are interested with interacting with this site. I have a bad feeling if we let civilians carte blanche join this site as we tend to be self policing.
