Well, I hope this post has come as a surprise to everyone reading this, but obviously I did a bad job of keeping the secret. I’m leaving for the whole summer and I very likely won’t be coming back. I have wanted to leave this community for the past couple months, and the only thing that kept me here was the allure of sergeant.
I first played Arma 2 years ago, Olympus was the first server I ever played on, and to this day is the only server that I play on. I lied about my age and joined the APD where I had a lot of fun. I left Olympus and came back on and off until October of last year, when me and @tacosmell decided that we would grind up the ranks of the APD. I never thought I would spend the next 3 months putting in 40 hour weeks to get corporal, but I did. I lost friendships because of this, I stopped talking to people that I cared about, but I wasn’t sad because I was having fun. I decided to completely ignore all of that, because I thought once I got corporal I would be done, and I could get back to my normal life but I didn’t. I grinded to FTO and grinded for SGT. On April 2nd I wrote an o7 post and I thought that I would be quitting, but my friends convinced me that I should just take a short break and stay, and than Edge left, so I decided I would grind for SGT and if I didn’t get it I would step down.
Towards the end of April, me and a couple of the boys decided that we would make a pact, if none of us got promotions, we would all quit, Dominic Ramos style. Obviously @Noodles:D and @Cyanide got sergeant, I didn’t step down because I didn’t feel like I got fucked out of the position, they deserved it way more than I did. It was also nice seeing one of my good friends getting a rank up. I also made a spreadsheet to compare FTO's
On the topics of rank ups, I’m going to talk about Support Team. Support Team has been great, I spent so much time doing tickets and being a squeaky clean person, to get senior. We promoted Max, and more recently couped Rossco lmao. Obviously I wasn’t an option for lead, because I told all those boys I was leaving, so Jester was our pick. Sorry for any toxicity recently, I just really haven’t cared at all about what happens.
Now for some @'s
@Jester Congrats on lead, I think you have a lot of potential to be great. Maybe someday you will get FTO, just talk more lmao.
@maxg I pushed for you to get Senior Support just for you to steal all my re-evals. I had a lot of fun playing cop with you, and I’m happy to see you got you’re corp back.
@Rossco I am wholeheartedly sorry for couping you, it was a good decision but it feels wrong now that you want to come back. You have been a great friend over the past few months, thanks for pushing for me to get senior support.
@Noodles:D One of my very good friends in the past few months on here. We both got FTO together and said that we would get Sergeant together. You got there and have been doing a great job, don’t forget to play with the boys though.
@KGB JOSH I have no idea how you got Mod you absolute monkey, make me proud cutie. I’m really glad that we became friends you are one funny dude.
@Snort 2 One of my favorite sAPD members, even though you are friends with all those cartel rat retards I still love you. Keep on saying the n word, we will play some more GMOD soon.
@Snort Strae you are also one of my favorite SAPD members, you are the most funny third worlder that I know. I’m so glad that you got LT, you deserved it buddy.
@sped I'm so happy that I got to see you finally get another corp test, weed is a gateway drug so watch out
@Greenbum You and sped provided some very fun late nights playing cop, get FTO and start grinding.
@MillenniumCongrats on getting FTO, I used to actually really think that you were an annoying retard. But as I have gotten to know you, I’ve learned that you are just a regular retard.
@ChrisGG Thanks for the corporal test. I could never tell if you liked me or not, maybe because you are just a mysterious dude.
@PledgeYou have proven to be a great chief, I have a lot of respect for the way that you run the APD. You have always reminded me of myself, a little bit and I feel like if I was the chief I would do very similar things.
@Revise You are an annoying retard tbh
@Maddox you are a funny little dude, keep asking questions.
@tacosmell You have known about my o7 for a very long time, I got you back into playing Arma, and I am happy that I did. You are honestly the most retarded person that I know, you have no filter and are straight fucking stupid, but I love it. I have nearly 700 hours on cop, and at least 75% of that was played with you. I'm glad that you got senior support, you deserved it. Now got sergeant and make all this shit worth it.
I made a video of all my clips on Olympus, it's pretty long but I would love if you watched at least part of it.
