    Back in the days when I was so new to arma and everything was a new experience, back when I would walk into dp 15(compton) and innovative would destroy my life. When myself and the crew(Smoke,Largrange) where in the marauders, when I had a potato for a PC

    Today I was verbally assaulted. These types of words SHOULD NEVER BE USED! Do you really think sending this to a constable of the APD is acceptable?
    words hurt
    Listen and learn young ones

    As someone who fervently supported the "fresh start" method on Australia, I now see that it was a shortsighted approach and it failed to address the long-term needs of the community. 
    There are plenty of reasons why the idea of a virgin economy is highly appealing. People engage with more of the content, thus theoretically increasing longevity (though we saw how that worked out in practice on Aus). Level playing field for prime housing. Reordering of established gang hierarchy, absent any fiscal or strategic advantages. And of course, the long coveted return to the halcyon days of Asylum, everyone playing the game in its simplest form. Shedding the complex ugliness and ennui that arises when people run out of things to do.
    However appealing, this approach fails to account for the practical matters at hand. Most grievously, it ignores the time commitment, effort, and time constraints of the community. As we saw with Australia, people are willing to set aside the time they had invested in Altis to enjoy the new content...for a time. But once the novelty had worn off, people returned to the servers that allowed them to enjoy the the deserved rewards of their efforts. If the experience isn't appreciably different or better, people won't sacrifice the the fruits of their labor for a change of scenery.  
    Beyond the initial release window, this issue only gets worse. By separating the economies, you introduce an opportunity cost to playing both. Every run completed on one is lost time on the other. This ends up relegating people to one or the other, rather than maintaining a healthy balance. Additionally, this creates a perceived barrier to access. One of Asylum's great strengths has been its focus on player freedom and eschewing the draconian restrictions that are so pervasive in other communities. If people feel that the requisite time commitment is too large for the new server, they'll try it for a few days and return to their regular server.  
    So for these reasons and a few others, I think that the economies should be linked. There are some legitimate drawbacks and part of me still naively believes that a fresh start could return the community to the golden era of Asylum, but history has shown that these hopeful prognostications of a return to form never come to pass. So I hope that the dev team will considering linking the economies and giving Asylum Tanoa the best possible chance to succeed. Ultimately, Paratus, Bamf, and Motown will do what they think is best for the server and community. Consideration is all any of us can ask for. 
     
    TL;DR: There are pros and cons, but the benefits of a fresh start last for a few weeks, the consequences are suffered indefinitely. Don't trade the long-term health of the server for a few weeks of economic equality.

    The salt is real about the update! Rebels bitching about getting downed at cartels, cops crying. 
    For someone who has 700k bounty I like the patch. It makes the game more interesting and brings a different dynamic to the server. 
    Someone always cry's about the patch, somethings never change

    I haven't seen 20 FSA online since October when I was in it. Lets be real, they showed up with maybe 8 guys, and im you guys had atleast 4. Im also sure you were defending.
    Lets be honest here if they went to a cartel you were capping and dragged you to the court house then how the hell are you going to complain.

    I mean if you got downed at a cartel and brought to a court house , who can you really blame for that? Seems to be like more of a you / gang kind of a problem then people who went to a cartel with 6.5 caliber tracers..

    It just means you got "bested" in that particular fight. Roll with friends next time you cap a cartel or find better shooters to roll with you next time.

    Dont see the problem here? Regardless of the weapons used you're still dribbling around like a downy.

    Okay, seeing as you've been chewing on that dribbling tongue of yours for so long that you brains being deprived of oxygen, let me just put it to context something for you.
    First, no one cares for your retarded opinion. 
    Second, you of all people cannot call anyone an insignificant dweeb seeing as everyone and their mother thinks you have down syndrome.
    And third and most important, i still cant stress enough how you really should have been smothered at birth.
    I got you fam  @Jessie Slaughter
