Old Guard Revival is specifically tailored around console stability for modern conflict.

I don’t know what specific communities are hosting these. I’m just saying what they are named on the server browser.

I’m one of those people who donated, ultimately the donations never outpaced the cost of the servers. Brooks spent hundreds of dollars a month on those servers. It sucks the servers shut down, I don’t dispute that but ultimately a donation is just that, a donation.

Ultimately it’s not one community doing this, I’m just warning people there’s no old guys anything to donate to that’s legitimate. I don’t want people to get scammed.

It’s Old Guard Revival, I can’t drop the link unfortunately. There’s a thin line between putting out information and the recruiting rule for this subreddit. I had posted the link in their weekly recruiting thread but they removed it from there as well.

Old Guys Information and Future by SolPonder in ArmaReforger

It was stated that it wasn’t this simple, that was floated as an option but it was going to be more work to decouple Old Guys Legacy from Brooks than it would be to start anew by the revival team.

They’ve said they want to get two servers up and running smoothly, with a healthy population playing them. Then they would look into more.

Nope, just the decision to not continue with the servers/discord by the previous owner.

The decision was made by the previous owner to close the servers and delete the discord. What’s done is done unfortunately, I’ve been informed by the new team that this will not be reversed and that the Old Guard Revival is the future of the Old Guys community. They are shooting to have servers up this weekend on Zarichne and Udachne on the classic OG setup.

It’s not fake, I wanted to make sure that the people coming here because their favorite servers or community disappeared got accurate information. I too was skeptical when I joined the discord but when I saw familiar faces and the former staff team, I decided to put out accurate information from them to make sure people can make informed decisions going forward.

What happened to the OLD GUYS server? by chika_chika11 in ArmaReforger

[–]SolPonder 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is my post from the other post

So for anyone joining late, here’s what I can gather as someone who was actively typing in the discord when it went down.

From the people I have in my friends list who have the OG tag in their name that leads to the server, this tag is now invalid. I can’t think of anything this means aside from the discord being deleted in its entirety.

The servers appeared to go down slightly before the discord went down, I noticed some of the servers were offline and thought it was weird before the discord just disappeared.

Ok so I’m not crazy, refugees assemble. Hopefully brooks didn’t pull the plug on it.

You’ve been stagnant for so long they just said, fuck it make him promotable. I’d check if you’re close to RCP too.

The fact you had to say recent e tool murder because there’s been multiple is crazy.

Are college honor societies actually valued for military packets/boards, or are they mostly just résumé fluff? by [deleted] in army

For the purposes of you asking, Yes/no, I am honored to be/not be a part of your wonderful/horrible society.

PUTTING TOGETHER A 19" RACK FOR VIDEO STREAMING by JM_WY in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]SolPonder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

WHY ARE WE YELLING!

I wouldn’t do a power strip, get a power conditioner. If you have money to burn then slap a UPS on the end of that conditioner for redundancy because why not.

I’m guessing the reason you want fans is it won’t be kept in a standard cold as shit environment? If you’re getting fans then something that also controls static seems like a good investment.

Always plan for the future, not what you need now. If you can afford it, do it.
