With how prestige works you had to have had well over the 10 mil to get 10 mil. Shouldnt take away from that.

HotWings liked a post in a topic by bamf in Thanks for everything
Almost 5 years ago I purchased Arma 3 at the urging of a friend to play something called Altis Life. My friend said I had to play on a server called the Asylum - so I bought the game on steam and we all got on S1. That night I ended up with a Katiba trying to rob people processing cocaine. I ended up getting killed by a guy named DanteSleepy, but I was hooked.
Through the months that followed I ended up in a little gang named Innovative, then as an Admin, a Captain in the APD, Community Manager, Developer, and finally an owner of the community. I've enjoyed the years here, but it is finally time for me to move on. No doubt you've seen the news already that @BaDaBiNg_10-8 and @Clint Beastwood have purchased Gaming Asylum from @Paratus and me. They have some ideas that I think the community will be happy about, and are bringing in a great developer to help anchor that team in @Jesse.
I'd like to thank all the admins, mods, developers, contributors, and support people who have helped (and continue to) the community over the years. Without a dedicated group of people to keep this place running it would no doubt fall apart.
I'd also like to thank the community for sticking with us through the good times and the bad. It's not lost on me that three years ago tonight Gnashes and I were finishing trying to get all the data pulled back into the database after we lost the database server. The community stuck through that with us, and I'm really thankful that you did.
Thanks for all the memories.

Bamf, without you—and the staggering amount of time and energy you've expended on this community—Asylum would not have survived. It probably would have died within six months of Identity's announcement. People probably aren't fully aware of just how much you've given, sacrificed, and endured over the years, but having seen it up close, I can't thank you enough for all of your Sisyphean toiling on our behalf. You persevered in the face of overwhelming negativity, frustrating internal forces, capricious BIS policies, and so much more, but you always seemed to press on simply because you loved the game.
You've left an indelible mark on this community and everybody who has been a part of it owes you a debt of gratitude. Thank you for all you've done. All the best.

We will see what Olympus does not that its under new ownership as well... Fact is Paratus moved on to another venture and we were left with people who are amateur coders. I have nothing against Bamf or Gnashes, but its the truth. The community being a bunch of toxic cunts who are never happy didnt help either.

Bamf....The amount of time and dedication you put into this community is astounding. If anyone deserves to retire, its you. Could always count on you when something needed to happen, whether it was when we were in Innovative, as an admin, a CM or even as the owner.
Admin-wise, when you joined the team, and then introduced us to splunk, that was a gamechanger that not only helped us do our jobs 100x more efficiently. Having been an Admin pre-Splunk, there is not many who understand how much having that improved our lives and jobs.
Thank you for everything you did for this awesome, and "sometimes" ungrateful community. I'm sure you had the urge to just up and leave many times, as most of us have had or done.

When it comes to the "Cartel capping above 0" thing, Imo you should still have to cap to 100 but when another gang is taking it you retain the benefits till it goes past 0.

No amount of anything will bring the player base back, and what is left is 99% sweaty kids who get their jollies off talking shit. Asylum is for all intensive purposes dead, and has been for a while. People only play at this point because they either don't want to start over somewhere else, wanna just fuck around with friends, or for the memes.

Bamf and Gnashes were not employees they were volunteers.... That said I love all the insider information that everyone has. Its very interesting to know how everything works, and even more interesting to learn that information from people with zero connection.
