At least when there were downvotes I thought about what I said before I posted it. Am I rite? Or am I rite?

@Evann At least when there were downvotes I thought about what I said before I posted it. Fuck it, I'm making a poll to bring back downvotes. Hold my beer.

Dunno, if a cop literally said "there's nothing you can do because you have no proof, you weren't recording" that's a big red flag... @Bobey Did you know a military-grade fast rope costs over $1,500-$2,000? I was researching grappling hooks for rappelling and I happened to come across how to create a makeshift one out of 8 strands of 11mm climbing rope. Sorry, just thought I'd share.

WOOSH

I mean...if we didn't have Rebel Outposts then how could anyone buy the gear they need to go on rampages and shit? Taxi services wouldn't change the fact that you'd still get killed in Red Zones, and Taxis were also pretty useless to be honest. No one ever played as them, and they didn't make any money, which in turn repeats itself over and over again. The only people who really want Taxis back are the people who are too lazy to drive around, and honestly, if you're feeling that lazy maybe you should hop off Olympus for awhile.

MRS. OBAMA, GET DOWNNN!!!

That's not very nice, sir.

@MAV @poof Lets all just be friends guys. We all want to help Olympus and in order to do that we all know there will be arguments and fights and disagreements, but we should always be respectful to one another.

@BillRampage Yeah, if you look on the page 3 of this thread, I made a few long posts that touch on the most common issues that could be argued/associated with this policy change. Feel free to take a look.

I mean I'm 5'11 and a quarter but wearing ANY shoes I'm 6'0 AT LEAST. So I personally don't have any height issues as I am 5'11 and 170 lbs and am also tied down somewhat like the situation @D Ganja described he is in. But I digress, having a height verification for a fucking dating app is the most retarded shit I've ever heard of. If tinder wants a fucking height verification they should have a weight verification too. And why don't they add a live chat while they're at it so I can make sure I'm not talking to a 5'5 180 lb LIVING 2/10 LAND WHALE piece of catfish garbage, huh? It's whaling season, boys. Prepare the nets and kill them all. @karma I hit you with that like, homie. You looked like you needed it. Just know you've still got shooters out there.

@MAV I see what you’re saying man. I guess the report system in place keeps a fair portion of that natural bias away. I honestly just appreciate how strict you are everything in general on this topic, because I’m used to staff in the past being bias towards gangs and shit and that’s why I wrote so much about what I thought on the subject. Thank you for having an honest and well-mannered discussion, it truly means a lot to be able to put an opinion out there on a forum and not be downvoted 30 times because your opinion is different than someone else’s.

@MAV I completely value your opinion and acknowledge your points completely. I just feel like the duty of a staff member/moderator is to uphold the rules above all. If you befriend several people from a certain gang, you are much more likely to help them out in a way you otherwise would not. Wouldn’t you agree? i know you guys volunteer your time for the sever and I truly do appreciate that. I just feel like it should have some kind of restrictions in place that could be debated when it comes to staff participating as members of gangs. I’m not trying throw shade or nothin’ man, just trying to get my point out there, you know?

I really think this isn’t a good idea, having Moderators in gangs is 100% guaranteed to promote bias among the staff. We are al humans here, we are all inherently bias but we can take steps not to be...however I feel like this is a big step backwards for Olympus as a whole. OS/Moderators have no business being in gangs. #UnpopularOpinion

@Vizaraiksame here, I only have like 216 or smthn...

party animal firing confetti all over that poor deputy he never stood a chance

the "I like boys." bit at the end made me laugh so hard i spit my coffee onto my computer screen and now everyone in the library is staring at me... please help

Gang Wars was a fat disappointment Incognito, drugs, and casinos (they should add casinos) you know how it is hombre, making that dirty money on those moonshine runs These two random things seem to coincide rather conveniently

o7 you will never be forgotten, thank you for all the time and effort you put in to help make Olympus better for everyone.

when you ride the bullets straight to allah

With great power comes great explosive shits, citizen. what can i saaaayyyy except YOUR WELCOMEEE

So I replied to an earlier forum post requesting help for building a PC that can run ArmA 3 for under $1000, I got it to $1009 with a used Graphics Card, and I thought I would post it here so that everyone can benefit. Feel free to take a look gentlemen: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/John.Glenn74/saved/#view=Bg2q4D So it comes out to a total of $1109 on the site, BUT that is also buying a brand new GTX 1060, you could sub it out for a GTX 1050 TI but I have no experience with those and have no idea how they will perform. I fully recommend the GTX 1060 because its graphical capacities are more than capable of running ArmA 3 on Ultra settings at 60 FPS, providing you have a good processor (which this build does) I use a GTX 1060 and an Intel i7 8700k and get 50-80 FPS on Ultra settings in Kavala with tons of chaos going on. If you buy a used GTX 1060 on ebay for $170 (or less), that will bring your total to $1009. Close enough??? The build includes: CPU CPU Cooler Motherboard Memory Storage Video Card (GPU) Case Power Supply The build DOES NOT include: Monitor (anywhere from $50 for a terrible one to $150 for an ok one to $400 for a good one) Operating System (Windows 10 keys are $30-$35 if you buy 3rd party) Software (stock pc with only Windows on it) Also make sure you have an ethernet cord that you order so you can plug your PC into your router. This is, of course, NOT PERFECT and I do not make PCs for a living. I'm just trying to help people out there who are looking for a good build to start off of because they don't know how to build a PC (it's really easy and assembly takes like 30-50 minutes). People can take this build and tweak it for their own personal needs.

We honestly need MORE gang wars and I also agree that they need to be more spread out to cater to the EU players' time zones. I think Gang Wars are a fun part of Altis Life and they bring people together for serious competition and overall dominance, weird flexes go on but it's dope af.

I didn't know him personally but I'm sure he was a cool cat.

You can make a really nice PC for around $950-$1250, I can help you make up a parts list if you want or if you're into laptops I can probably help with that too. Some nice Ryzen's on the market for both desktops and PCs, but it all depends on what you want to sacrifice. ArmA 3 is super CPU dependent so your processor needs to be top dollar.
