Hey guys. Really kind of an embarrassing post to have to be making but got rused by a phishing scam today. That being said I wanted to make a post anyways since this is by far the most clever I have ever seen, and it seems to be going around as I got it from someone within Olympus. This is how it goes. You get a message from one of your steam friends asking if you can vote on a logo they made for college. You say yes, they send you a link and you click it. Once you click it, they ask you to sign in with your steam. Since the URL is steamcommunity.com, you enter your info. One problem. It is not, they fake the entire window. After that (whether it be a bot or a person), someone or something goes through your steams friends list and sends the same scam to every single one of your friends while simultaneously blocking them to prevent you from seeing their responses and being tipped off. Here is a video of it, but wanted to put it out here so no one else is fooled the same way. Never thought I would ever be dumb enough to fall for a phishing scam but here we are. On an unrelated but really kinda sweet note (for context) I created a semi-large Gary's mod server when I was fourteen. I still have a handful of them on my friends list to this day. When I reached out to one of them to disclose it was a scam, I got this really sweet reply which kinda felt good. I fell out of touch with a lot of them, but it was kind of a silver lining to the entire situation. Anyway TLDR: Don't be stupid like me

Olympus Entertainment - Celebrating 10 Years! [$2k+ GIVEAWAY]
Milo replied to Ryan 's topic in Updates & Announcements
Don't count me in on the giveaway but just wanted to chime in. My first time playing Olympus I was fifteen years old. Crazy to think 9 years later it's not only still here but it's the #2 server on battlemetrics out of the whole world, and that we've been struggling with slots being full. -
I actually love @ Doke TV but @ Community Director Sov is cooking him
-
All those tags almost be looking like a rainbow. You got something you want to talk to us about @ Doke TV ?
-
I mean agreed. I respect community consesus, faction leadership and roundtable. I just think it's a really good idea and am eager to see it happen.
-
@ The Sovereign I've already cooked the above too. If you get it approved, I'll get it sent
-
Out of reactions for the day but

WILL COOK Give me your Gary blessing to make deadman switch go off on taze?

In my opinion the rules regarding suicide vests just need to be entirely reworked. @ Millennium is correct that it is extremely easy to walk into an HQ and kill restrained players. However I believe @ The Sovereign is onto something in simplifing this. Suicide vests should really be able to be used in any situation where you are actively engaged. As long are you are intending to strike an enemy, and not just people in restraints; anything else should be deemed crossfire per the existing RDM/cross fire provisions in the Altis Life rules. If there needs to be further balance then I think it is worth evaluating whether players should be able to be shot on sight for possessing a suivest or deadman switch but I don't think there is any harm in simplifying rules it sounds like a lot of people have been banned for misunderstanding. That's just my take though
-
Also make deadman switches work for tasers. A suicide vest and deadman switch is an extremely expensive one time use item that deserves a little extra love. In my opinion would be a perfect and reasonable nerf to the APD warrant system

At least you knew when to stop and didn't hit zero haha

As Shawn and Element mentioned, what a lot of people don't realize is the sheer amount of stuff Mako does behind the scenes. He has helped with pretty much every update release to live and does a lot on the daily that's not visible enough to be apprecaited for. Oftentimes it is a lot of the shit that none of the rest of us actually wanna deal with too. I remember having a conversation with Mako a long time ago where I specifically told him I disagreed with some of the things he'd go about saying, and that he should especially not be saying it from his role. I can say that since that conversation, I definitely agree with Silton that he has come a long ways since then. Obviously calling someone a "retard" in a dispute isn't stellar, but ultimantely it's a game, heads get hot; and although I don't frequent it, I am sure I have probably said similar things in disputes at some point or another. It's easy to be playing a game and get frustrated. That being said @ Mako fuck you though for having me play rock paper scissors with Nicole last update for who writes in-game changelog. That shit sucked haha.

Performance increase/decrease on Win10 vs Win11
Milo replied to Bubbaloo - Reusable P Cup 's topic in General Chit-Chat
The performance for games is about the same. OS upgrades can sometimes cause weird driver issues amongst other things which is a worthwhile notable risk, but usually pretty small. In my personal opinion I feel like Windows 11 doesn't introduce enough to be worth it however it would make sense to upgrade as then you could get used to it before you ever get a new PC where it is already pre-loaded. I'm not a super large fan of Windows 11 in comparison to Windows 10 but then again everyone said the same thing about 10 back when it succeeded Windows 7 & 8. TLDR: Compatibility can be a concern with OS upgrades, and there isn't a whole lot of advantage gained in upgrading; however it is probably the best move to keep your PC running sustainably in the future so it probably still is worth it. Best of luck if you go through with it
