Marty

It's always sad when a member of our community leaves, but when such an outstanding member of Olympus is forced to leave due to the toxic behaviour of others it is especially upsetting. I understand how repeated exposure to toxicity, even online, can have a significant effect on real emotions. I'm lucky in that I can choose with whom I share the fact that I'm gay, which limits the amount of bullshit I get for it, but I can't imagine how different my experiences on Olympus would have been if everyone I talked to knew about it. I'm not surprised that I occasionally get childish insults over it as society is still in the process of getting used us, but it's shocking that you, along with other women who play or used to play on our server had to deal with blatant sexism. To the idiots who treat the few female members of our community with disrespect, I urge you to imagine the outrage you would feel if you found out your sister, daughter, or mother was treated similarly, regardless of if it is in the workplace, school, or online. Dez, I hope that you do not abandon us entirely, despite having left the staff. But whether or not you decide to leave, we wish you the very best.

IGN: [Taxi]Marty How did you find olympus: I played DayZ standalone before this. One day my brother and I were playing DayZ and after a while we got bored since there were no cars. He had played on olympus at that time, and he suggested that I try it out. As I did not have Arma, he said I could borrow his friend's account temporarily. Olympus was the first server I played on, and it was the only server I've ever logged on to until recently. I loved everything about it, and a couple months later I bought the game myself. I think I bought it right after the wipe, or before. When I first joined by IGN was Mato (the Slovak equivalent of Marty), but as nobody seemed able to pronounce it properly, I changed it to Marty, and eventually when I got a taxi license to [Taxi]Marty. Favourite memory of Olympus: When I was still relatively new, and even newer to doing drug runs, I was on my way back from a drug run in what I think was a box truck, but my memory could be off. Anyway I must've been driving for quite a while as I had completely forgotten that I had drugs in my truck. I approached the kavala police checkpoint, which happened to have policemen stopping vehicles and searching them. Having forgotten about my illegal cargo, when asked whether they could search, I cheerfully agreed. Doesn't sound too exciting, and I did have other, more fun and exciting experiences, but since I have to choose one, I think this is the one most unlike any other experience I've had on the server, especially because of the roleplay by the officers involved. Most of my fond memories do involve the APD.

Jk, they're nice

this is brilliant! Just one suggestion. On the weather segment I suggest saying the specific temperature rather than just saying cool or warm. Also maybe add things like UV index?

Whenever I see OSN i just think of the united nations--Organizácia Spojených Národov Have you considered somehow including a map of Altis in the intro?

Get a Trabant 601

What did you do to Canada?!

I need all the protection I can get from the rdmers in Kavala. I refuse to hang out elsewhere

In such an event I suggest apologising and offering compensation, perhaps even epi-penning if no medic is available nearby

Yes. I've seen them in the gay porn i watch.

About the defib thing, I was thinking that maybe if players had to buy them from medics directly for like 10-20k, then medics wouldn't lose any money? But I don't really care if they're added or not.

vikings were here earlier, and before that the natives came from asia through alaska, so...

I feel a bigger sense of pride for my local transportation system than I do for my local hockey team. Go SkyTrain!

I'm Canadian but i dont watch hockey so I guess I'm not really that Canadian. But I balance it out with maple syrup, timbits, and saying sorry too much.
