Edit.: I lost access to this DRCharlie account, can you please send me a new pw? Not to my Email since I have absolutely no idea which email it's on. It's enough if you tell me the email though!
I came back to say hi a long time ago, thanks to everyone who replied then and sorry if I left you out, I don't want to modify it now!
http://www.argonathrpg.eu/index.php?topic=50403.msg669661#msg669661I had to edit again just to mention that cDa was my fav admin and he always helped me a lot while I was still learning stuff, thanks man for everything, I forgot your exact name that's why I haven't mentioned you below
Hello guys I'm Gergő and for me, everything started here, on this server in
2007 February 7(or 9).
I was just a kid and my brother stumbled upon the Argonath MTA server, he quickly told me about it and I joined in on the fun too. Well, it was empty. My brother told me these guys have an SA:MP Server too and I thought it would be fun to play for a few hours. 9 years later I'm still partly involved in San Andreas MultiPlayer..
It all started with me, a little noob trying out a new thing, a whole new genre for me.
It's really weird because the whole time I played here I've only been banned once, and that was a bit rushed too, I got banned because my game crashed while we were talking to the admins about the situation. No kicks or jails.
So basically I got sucked in, I met a lot of nice people, I wanted to write a nice long topic mentioning a lot of stuff but dang, I just can't seem to express myelf properly.
I've seen it all, ALS, PD, FBI (Best time I had ever) and some other factions too, I met a Hungarian guy (Hank Rafferty), made lots and lots of friends and most importantly I was a Level 3 admin for some time, before I left to make my own server (a bit more about that later).
I always made lots of topics on the forum, businesses like casinos and other weird stuffs like that, the most fun I had was on FBI. I loved it, I can't remember much names, but Winter + Twenty should be enough for me. I still have Winter on Steam, haven't talked to him in forever.
I also started the trend of painted hotrings by buying one and painting it different colors. I remember how in 0.2x nobody saw vehicle damages but you. Fun times.
I started the CORTEZ FAMILY here which is still an active family among Hungarian RolePlay communities. We have 34 members. I met Frans here who had some real life problems at the time and we cheered him up, invited him to the family and I still think of him as a good friend. He was banned for wearing the Cortez name at first though, it was the automated system >.<.
I'd still like to mention a few names though, obviously I'll start with Gandalf, Aragorn and Gimli, all 3 of you guys were present on my nerd in-game birthday parties, Twenty, Winter, CB, Frank (The security guy), everyone at FBI, ALS and lots of lots of other people I can't remember because my memory sucks. + Hank, the random Hungarian guy I met on the server, he got me through the freecop training and made me a real officer. I can still remember, it was in 2007 or 2008, I was driving like crazy, flipped the car by accident, flipped it back, then we were on a boat chase and somehow I got lucky and I landed the shot on the driver of the boat. The suspect died and Hank was super impressed. I remember wearing my police uniform in front of the San Fierro Church, walking around while my parents were telling me to go to sleep. I couldn't sleep much, I BECAME an officer that day, come on, I was too excited.
After Argonath I went on to make a Hungarian RPG Server and I was owner/developer until 2012, the server is still the biggest Hungarian RP server with 600 actual online players in the game. I left because other owners only cared about the money. I kind of understand now how they wanted to monetize the server but the things they did were still really-really bad (selling admin rights, saying the guy is their cousin to the whole admin team including me).
I had a few good years, I finished school when I was 19 and I took a 2-3 month PHP course to end up where I am right now. In a bit of a pickle after the Valve Policy change, I'm an expert in Steam API and Steam Bot Developing and now they kinda banned that so I'm looking into other things right now. I'm a PHP, Mysql, NodeJS, Java, HTML, CSS, Jquery developer. That makes me sound like a genius. I google everything when im doing a job (love you stackoverflow).
I'm 21 years old now, and I still remember some beautiful moments from Argonath, and I will most likely keep them stored in my head for a long time. This was a great experience for me, I learned a lot here and it's been nothing but amazing. Oh, and Gandalf, you owe me an Ammunition at Dillimore. Seriously, we talked about it in 2008 it's time to deliver..
I wish I had some pictures to share with you or some other memories, but I'm not even sure if anyone will read or reply to this topic so I want to keep it short, if someone remembers me and messages I will obviously continue the conversation and talk about good old times.
Some good old memories
A wedding invitation from a long time ago:
I would like to tell you that i will get marry on this Saturday, 2nd May, 2009 at 20:00 server time!
My choosen Jenn_Black and I would like to invite you to our wedding and the after party, which will hold in the ... restaurant in ... .
The ceremony will hold in the San Fierro Church.
On the party we need some staff (4 waiters or waitresses) and need a priest too,so I would like to ask some people to sign up here,or at [WS]Charlie,who is our ceremony master.
I will pay for the work 3000$/head, because this is my Great Day,so I think I should be generous.
I would like to invite some VIP too: our President Gandalf and Prime Minister Aragorn, SAPD Chief [R*]CbFasi, [Rstar]Pancher, Lieutenant Hank Rafferty, and FBI Agent [WS]Charlie.
I would like to ask you to come and join me in my happiness.
See you on my wedding! 
I do have a few pictures but they are not in-game releated, there was a time in 200x or 20xx when you guys tried to get an official Argonath flag, well, I saved some of the submissions so here you go guys, none of them are mine:
Okay I'm going to stop here, I have a bunch of these they are all amazing!
Okay two more these are awesome, and I think the second won? I'm not sure.
I mean WHO wouldn't get their license from me after they see this 10/10 high quality photo, right?
Also found a picture of my in game wedding with Twenty, still not sure if (s)he's a dude or not IRL:
Frank was awesome, not sure why but I still remember the way he used to RP and he was awesome.
Trying to join the FBI (Spoiler Alert, I got in)
I still remember when some random dudes tried to attack the server by talking shit about the owners, I still got the image he spammed on these forums, F that guy
Learned a lot of discipline and some other good values from being an admin here:
These gems I was able to recover are part of the true treasury of this server.
I had one of the best times in my life here, even though it's just an online game it was a welcoming community.
I don't want to look for more pictures right now, I'm pretty sure I have a few stored here and there though.
Thank you Argonath and all its creators for making this community, I wish you guys all the best with your lives and the server.
Hope I'll talk to some old faces in this thread.
~ Charlie
