Your promotions as staff are not dependent on how much work you put in, or how much time you spending learning precedents, and making fair judgements.  It's just a popularity contest based on who you're friends with crossed with how loud you clap and cheer whenever someone with higher seniority makes a decision.  And then they hold 'votes' on their decision, and if you don't agree with what the person holding vote says is his opinion, then you'll be a moderator for an inordinate amount of time if you make it that far. 

I'm a thinker, not a ticket bot.  CC is where I belong, and not even with rank... because nobody is going to inform me of what my opinion is.

gave pretty clear reasoning on why they cant add it, its really easy to exploit. they wont add something that's easy to exploit regardless of how many people want it, it would cause more harm than good. If you want actual change on the server it seems like it would be alot smarter to focus on changes that might actually get added rather than pursue things that have been explicitly denied, or propose some alternative compromise, which I haven't seen you do. Chasing things you cant get is also a failure of your job as a cc rep. 

Also, what is the logic behind reverting the system? maybe people had different experiences than me but it was ridiculously easy to get war points you could spawn in kav and pdub 3 guys and get 30-40 warpoints and when you died you would lose 1. I dont think it makes any sense in a game like Olympus to incentivize worse gear, just gives the good players a reason to farm the shitters relentlessly, which is what happened. Longshot rewards were kind of cool, because it was rare, but long distance fighting in arma is easily one of the least fun ways to fight in this game, at least in my opinion. Titaning should also probably not be incentivized, as it is an extremely one sided fight, and you can fire a titan from complete safety and it is an incredibly powerful tool, especially if you are at war and don't have to titan engage. A titan is a very powerful tool than can shut down air vehicles in a large area, from complete safety with its main draw back being that its expensive. There is no reason to give titaning a way to generate profit as it completely negates the only drawback it has. If everybody gets a bunch of warpoints from titaning, all air travel all over the map will be more aids, the only type of person this would benefit is the type of person who sits around all day trying to titan people for no real reason, but thankfully nobody in the Olympus community would ever spend their time doing that, so I really don't understand the change.

If you cant go warpoint positive after 6k hours in arma its on you man  

U must not be playing arma recently but ur lucky to find enemy gang let alone enough to start a kill streak. 

People don’t war anymore because they lack an incentive that the old system provided. U spending too much time with that dead beat junky druggy alcoholic loser @ Metro Boomin . His degeneracy is starting to show on you.

devs were pretty clear they wont do that 

Because they don’t know the struggle of getting warpoints on server 1 they just cash in their gay staff points

It's currently being exploited, and there's nothing in the return that makes it exploitable.  Being able to stack a currency you're supposed to lose if you get killed is exploiting.  There's no way anyone has ever brought up of not being tradable being exploitable.

yeah i mean u die on server 3 u lose one warpoint. U kill someone on server 3 u gain 4. It doesn't make any sense to gain more warpoints on a server where war kills are more abundant.  Warkills are more scarce on server 1.

Yes I have.

So then you’re just retarded? 

Anyone who says the main reason to get rid of the old war point system because it’s exploitable is retarded. U realize you can only get warpoints on server 3?

To expand on this:

1. The way Arma does damage handling sucks. Depending on what other methods of obtaining war points would be added, I could see it absolutely being exploited by players who understand how bad Arma is at handling that. Especially since people have exploited more indepth difficult systems for less.
2. Creating larger rewards for war points would further incentivise players to try and re-create those scenerios for the sake of farming points. That would be more people needlessly getting banned.
3. If the system was changed then it was changed for a reason

did u play the server before 2023?

I think the larger problem is abuse and exploitation

wdym?

The way it is now you can only really get warpoints from playing server 3.  This is a problem for many reasons.  Before the summer of 22 when you actually fought cartels and enemy gang u were properly rewarded. Now if you kill 2 people and trade with the second you will go negative in warpoints gained. Its pretty ridiculous.

There's one that seems to insist on handling it I won't name because he got really mad at me last time and I like the guy, but he refuses to execute as asked.  

@ codeYeTi

Is the warpoint system ever going to be reverted back to how it was before the summer of 22? I thought it was at the top of civ councils priorities but clearly not.  The new system is retarded and it only rewards people who play server 3. The old warpoint system should come back. incentivizing players with warpoints is a very good thing. I am happy to provide the logic if it isnt already obvious.
