orginizing base
Today I was the first one to join the server and the mission had kept going from last night. What I found was blackhawks trucks and humvees strewn all around the base. I found jets parked nose first into walls. I found many destroyed or damaged helicopters and many vehicles turned on. I spent nearly an hour cleaning everything up by myself. My point is no one should have to clean an entire base up ever. We need to put things back when were done with them and repair them.
It also come to my attention that we have a high aircraft loss rate last night I left the server and there were 4 a10s a littlebird 2 ffaar blackhawks and 3 harriers. Today I found 1 a10 2 harriers and a ffar black hawk. I dont care that we loose these aircraft but once lost the wrecks must be located and brought back to base via wreck repair black hawk.

Re: orginizing base
What I have seen happen in the past is people joining or left on late after the larger group starts to fade. Most people are done "playing" and they just disconnect without any thought. The problem with persistent missions is that many players overlook the fact that others will be coming behind them and don't necessarily want to restart the mission.
If you see individuals purposely leaving vehicles or equipment behind or the infamous "I crashed the helo, I'm done for the night." disconnect, notify an admin. Either in game or PM.|TG-12th| tHa_KhAn

Re: orginizing base
Totally agreed. If you take out any vehicle, you are responsible for returning it to parking. No excuses. If you have to log off in an emergency, you're still responsible for checking in later and returning it. If you wreck a non-respawning vehicle, you must arrange for its return to base (UH60 #4 is specifically set aside to lift aircraft wrecks). If you do not know how to lift, or otherwise cannot, you should not be flying in the first place.
As usual - common sense.

Beer cans strewn about, puke in the plant pots, cigarette butts in the toilet. Hooligans!

Re: orginizing base
With all these new people on the server, I'm not noticing any posts by them. Did they just grab the PW and think they can just jump on and play how they want to play? Leaving vehicles about the map is not on. Read the announcements and SOP's.

Re: orginizing base
One of my favorite roles in ArmA is being in charge of main base logistics. Maybe it's the OCD talking, but I like cleaning up and arranging everything juuust right.

Re: orginizing base
Yeah, I sort of have a slight case of ocd my self. I prefer support roles as much as possible, as i feel much better when i know I'm being as useful as possible, and often taking the jobs that others may find boring. I also prefer to play the MG/AR 99.9% of the time, as i have no problem providing suppressive fire, rather then trying to play an effective killer. Originally Posted by Sc[ + ]pe

My two sense.
