I for one kind of support it I mean, marriage in the military happens but like, this IS medium rp with high rp elements that seems more high rp all day everyday to me so keep it banned in my opinion, just say you're soon to be's or something like that if you want
And be willing to accept the consequences.

When the rule was added, the justification seemed to be that having marines as married couples seemed highly unrealistic in on a military ship in active combat, and any roleplay generated from it was a vicious cycle of cringe. It also was during a time when meta-cliques were rampant and we would have "married marines" who would go to great lengths to break marine law for their significant others, disobey orders and generally be assholes to anyone who wasn't their internet pal.

I think it's a null point to argue that it adds anything. It's too prone to becoming a Colonial Marines Dating Simulator at that point.

Marriage in a military environment can cause complicatoins, especially in a game which focuses on combat and command, not relationships.

We're actually more interested in opening up unconscious people and playing with their organs than developing relationships.

Marriage would just open the door to LOADS of problems and cringeworthy RP.
Marines can already be friends, and that already has slight effects on gameplay. Etiher people would use this as an excuse to borderline grief/be shitters in general, or the RP it creates would be bland and cringy. Probably both.

IIRC, that's the reason it was banned in the first place too.

Cringy RP and creepy incidents and good points aside, let's focus on the real issue; compounding alimony and the average marine's mathematical ability. Think of the interest payments, guys!

In addition to the cringe RP stemming from "Xenos knocked up my bae" or some such nonsense..

"I'm pregnant!" "I want a divorce!"

Marriage on this game wouldn't have any use besides people abusing it to great lenghts like breaking marine law, disobey superior orders or even try "skirt" the rules with a RP justification "muh baby".

It only serves to create a hassle in the game.
I don't see how this is anyway inhibited by not marrying. People ALREADY DO THIS, how is being married going to change that at all? I really see no reason it wouldn't be allowed, as was said before, it's really common for marines to get married. Calling it highly unrealistic is bordering on the absurd. Military marriage is INCREDIBLY common, and many spouses deploy together. Yes, the CO can say no, but pretty commonly they don't.

This is a serious topic which we need to fully explore. That's what conversations are about.
Now,

How many slots for JAGs should we have and should we add a chaplain role to marry people in-round?

I'm in the US Army myself, and if say two people were married they would not be able to deploy together.
