BALLAS | In memory of INFERNO 9 and NBA

[hpdk]

As we reach the 31st of December 2011, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your warm support over the past two indispensable years.  As Jimmy, our branch manager has announced - we have taken the decision to close the group in good faith and have agreed that the 30st of December 2011 will be our last as INFERNO 9. We have not taken this decision lightly and it has been in the works for the last 2 months. A large factor that contributed towards this decision was the need for change in real life and maturing needs rendered our operational capacity frailer than ever before.

We remain confident our efforts to date will not be in vain and are optimistic that our legacy will be used as the benchmark in teaching new talent for the future.  We hope our sense of belonging and cohesion can be used as a framework in aim of being integrated into other similar families with a parallel vision in direct compliance with the relaying Argonath vision. We believe that through our efforts we've had a positive impact on the community through our reign as the premier balla themed movement. In turn, we've collected many accolades including the 'best roleplay group of 2009' and non-official 'runner up best roleplay group of 2010'. On the back of these successes, our time tested adherence resulted in no bans being issued to any INFERNO 9 members with the offense being committed while in the group. In summary, we are proud yet remain humble to retain one of the most successful timeline of events for any criminal group before us and continue to set the precedent for others to surpass against in the forthcoming future of SA:MP Argonath. 

Black Blue White -Hakuba Time Lapse-

Whilst saying this, these awards are - just materialistic in value and are no substitute for experiencing the inner core of INFERNO 9. The real INFERNO 9 is driven by the passion for the community, its new people and the underlying global friendships we've come to cherish.  Our passion for the community has been rigorously demonstrated by having the courage to challenge practised principles and integrating different methodologies of RP. This has been compounded by our willingness to accommodate different tiers of membership and having the audacity to change their ways which has attracted controversy but mutual respect at the same time. Our belief in our friends, our colleagues and ultimately the owners have kept us in line with meeting our objectives and without their support, this would have not been possible in anyway shape or form.

Our path has always been one of good faith for the community and has never strayed away from this. Though we've had our conflicts in the past, our gratefulness has always remained elevated in all senses and practised through what we've come to do. I wish that we will be remembered as those who stood for the Argonath banner but also for those that had no meaningful voice of their own to convey.  We will always be loyal to this community and it will never be a case of leaving for another as has been speculated.  We now look to the future generation of Argonath to give the community the inspiration, drive and sense of purpose that we've aimed to embed through others during our time as INFERNO 9.

Thank you to all those who served as INFERNO 9 and supported us and remember, there is more to life than a video game:

On a personal note, I'd also like to extend my gratitude to everybody who made INFERNO 9 possible but especially those who served in our group during two illustrious years. Though we begin taking different paths from this moment onwards, I hope you have learnt as much from me as I have from you all. I will forever cherish our friendship and hope that we stay in touch in whatever way deemed possible. My door is always open to you should you need any advice whether professionally or if you just want to know how to kill CJ's mom. 

Best wishes,

Frank

I also got my addition to the trip down the memory lane, once when i wasn't like i am now... the past can't be forgotten.


NOTE: I only had screens mostly with text, i've edited out adminstration chatter + other.

Its not San Andreas without the Ballas... Even though I never really cared much about the Ballas or Groves or anything, I just went on like normal and rped and stuff. But now that the Ballas are gone Argonath will NEVER be the same... You guys made Argonath a living hell.... Gang wars, Riots,  lots of killing, and other crap, but the living hell you made Argonath was fun, it gave roleplay a whole new meaning... I don't know what we will do without the best gang in the history of Argonath... I was never a member of the Ballas, but I always wanted to be.


Ballas, you will be missed.....

[wayneehh]

I'm gonna miss you inferno :'( :'( I'm proud that I started as a balla although I was not always at your RP's and I did never lead an RP but I thank you for everything <3 and I hope that we'll see eachother around in game when I come back to samp (I wanted to come tomorrow but my PC has a problem, I can't and don't know how to fix it ) And Danny it's not months I was not in game for around 4 weeks or more... I had to take a rest of my gaming life :/

I really can't believe what I am reading! I can't even with the English dictionary in my hand describe how much this group meant to me. As mentioned by others, the feeling of being with a group of mature, funny and great RPers made the whole Argonath experience magic! Everything from Jungle calls to Ruff ride sessions, standing at GS9 to beating the mortal shit out of Lustigkurre. Everything. So. Great.

Though I have every member of [i9] to thank for this, there are some who deserves extra recognition:
[i9]Frank_Hawk - You helped me when I was new and showed me how fun and how much you can do by using roleplay as your only tool. For this, I say cheers mate! You have my MSN if you wish to keep in touch.

[i9]Kunal_Aregas - You and me. We had some great fun together! You were always up to do funny things and your constant awesome attitude was admirable! I think you have my MSN, otherwise you can PM me if you want to keep in touch :-)

Lustigkurre - The man, the legend, the principal of ''the school of badassery''. You were my dodo wingman and we did some CRAZY shit out there! I loved our boat trip in the Glen Park pond! Keep in touch!

Truth - Heh...

Regards.
Mielnik a.k.a [i9]Curtis_Emmet.

[i9] will be always unique, never will be other gang like you.
I never was [i9] but I wanted to, also I never had time to be one, always busy with other things and I was always a mafia boy.
I just hang sometimes with you guys, but was really fun. R.I.P. [i9].
I just got two images of today:

We'd go out there and shoot anyone we knew talked trash about us, questions wasn't an option - answers were all bullets.

And I wonder why people called you deathmatchers...

[Mashgash]

Thanks for your times and good luck in the future.

Something I found between the old pages. I can't remember who it was that did this movie but respect to him.
