A.r.s?

Ok I see ARS printed on tons of stuff in the Brink world like the Security uniforms and the riot style shield emplacements, I assume it stands for Ark (Something) Security…now what does the R stand for!! Its soooo annoying! Can someone from S.D. answer this!?

The Fast Show means I always assume it’s ‘arse’. What else could it possibly be?
Left 4 Dead’s machine pistol has ‘AR5’ on the side and I saw a poster for ‘Atlanta Rythym Section’ in a film once.
Once you know to look for it, you will see arse everywhere.

“When the Ark was completed The Founders implemented a system (mostly AI) to help them make The Ark as autonomous as possible with minimal human interaction. They called A.R.S. (art in Latin - implied that everything they do is an art), Autonomous Response System, was in charge of the Ark climate control, reactor, energy efficiency, an early warning system, weather forecast, etc.
When the refuges started to come to Ark, another branch was founded A.R.S. (ARK Rescue & Salvage). The refuges arriving in precarious boats, in an low state of health and was needed an immediate response team to find, rescue, salvage an relocate the refugees to the designated areas…
As son as the first signs of turmoil appeared over The Ark, The Founders created 2 more branches to coupe with the incoming threat: The Anti-Riot System and Ark Reconnaissance & Security.”
