HUMBLE BACKGROUND AND HERITAGEIn early 2008, Rage Incorporated [RI] was officially unveiled to Los Santos in a bid to create the first fully fledged business model in Argonath history. The corporation founders - Frank Hawk and Pete Dubz met in early 2008 with a common understanding, vision and shared a passion to create a revolutionary business powerhouse. Through preliminary research, they found that business opportunities within Los Santos were vast with the only competitor being ALS who reportedly lacked in discipline, organisational control and lack of strategic decision making. As a result, Rage Incorporated [RI] capitalised on failings stemming from its rival and formulated a strategic plan to embody its brand image across the city readily allowing it to invest into the community heightening their profile, premier and image respectively.
The public perception climbed to an all time high in May 2009 as the company had successfully deployed many public incentives and had passed regulatory compliance enforced by the Argonath Bank. NASDAQ was equally responsive valuing the company at $20,000,000 at the peak of the boom highlighting its financial stability particularly in property investments. Suddenly in June 2009, the Argonath Bank (AB) collapsed on bad debts and write downs caused by reckless lending policies introduced by Government officials. The AB's largest partner in property investment was Rage Incorporated [RI] and directly experienced volatile fluctuation through its share price dropping several notches over the course of the month. The direct exposure left the funding model open to threat and the opportunity to diversify the income stream was already exhausted leaving it in a vulnerable position. Rage Incorporated [RI] responded in controversial fashion by setting the price of oil at an uncompetitive level when compared with San Fierro and Las Venturas.
The rising price of oil in Los Santos brought the city into disarray led by riots, public protests and attempted military coups. In July 2009 the Los Santos Government declared a state of emergency. The consensus among the public was that of anger who felt the ambitious and reckless expansion of Rage Incorporated [RI] was instrumental to the collapse of the Argonath Bank (AB) and vented their frustrations by boycotting their services to long lengths.
In late July 2009, the public sentiment shifted for the worse as escalating violence against Rage Incorporated's [RI] head office in Little Mexico left it decimated beyond repair. During this time, the media reported that Araatus syndicate had issued death threats against Rage Incorporated's Executive Commitee (ExCo) committee however this was later allegedly dismissed by the chief of Police, Hank Rafferty at City Hall. In August 2009, during a routine visit to the notorious gangland zone of Gas Station 9 by ExCo, a bomb was detonated resulting in the death of executives from Rage Incorporated [RI]. Here after, the bomb was commonly referred to as INFERNO 9. The news shocked the public, Government and stakeholders involved - The market reacted sharply by panic selling shares and media speculation fuelled the collapse of confidence in the financial behemoth. Though pleas of rescuing the ailing giant were submitted by acting subsidiaries, the Government failed to respond forcing the company to apply for bankruptcy. Unknown to the many that had amassed after the demise of Rage Incorporated [RI], the FBI did not believe that Joey DeRossi and Frank Hawk were dead and subsequently launched investigations which led them to San Fierro where a local merchant had tipped them off to their whereabouts.
ONCE A FIRE IS LIT, AN INFERNO IS BORNIn September 2010, the media erupted reportedly claiming that Joey DeRossi and Frank Hawk had survived the explosions. As a result of public demand, the FBI was allegedly forced to issue a statement confirming that these disclosures were untrue. To the shock of many, the FBI did the opposite by confirming that both were alive and well but declared them as fugitives who were wanted for questioning surrounding the collapse of Rage Incorporated [RI] and their role in property investments.
As investigations drew cold over the coming months, Frank Hawk and Joey DeRossi seized the opportunity to move back to Los Santos and regained control of the first subsidiary then known as Rage Incorporated Oil [RIo] / Gas Station 9. On resurrecting operational capacity and re-engaging standard business operational readiness. The FBI reportedly grew suspicious and carried out surveillance where they uncovered the true intentions of Frank Hawk and Joey DeRossi. Whilst the business model was much smaller then the original concept of Rage Incorporated [RI] - they were compensating financially through illegal activities such as extortion and robberies. The FBI also reportedly grew concerned as leaked memos revealed that Joey DeRossi and Frank Hawk were actively seeking those responsible for the deathes of ExCo and of those accused of rouge trading in NASDAQ who they suspected to be in the Government. Despite the weight of power behind Joey and Frank, they could not accomplish this mission alone and embarked on an aligning likeminded individuals across the city to create one of the most ruthless and dangerous factions in Los Santos in a bid to find those responsible for the atrocities committed.
WHERE WE OPERATE
IDLEWOODOn entering Idlewood, one cannot help notice the burning stench of fuel in the air. This part of town is run down, deprived and fuelled on crime, ranging from robberies to murders - you'll find it all happening in Idlewood. Walking around the streets, you'll quickly notice the influx of immigrants and ballas hanging around the area armed to teeth itching to commit a crime. To no surprise, the SAPD reportedly warned all their officers to avoid this area as it is commonly known as the most dangerous part of Los Santos - so be wary, this is not for the faint hearted so tread with caution.
GAS STATION 9Gas Station 9 is centralised in a vibrant metropolitan in Idlewood, Los Santos. Traditionally, this has been the home of INFERNO 9 since September 2009. This zone is heavily guarded by balla patrols running 24/7 around the area and hanging around for too long will most definitely attract the utmost attention from local hoodlums. Gas Station 9 awkwardly retains the title for the most deaths in the area often caused by unstable fuel canisters based there - as a result, you'll expect the emergency services to be out in full force, so watch out - expect fireworks if visiting.
9TH STREET ALLEYThe 9th street alley is located in Idlewood and one of the largest drug centres in Los Santos. You'll find dealers from all over the world here ranging from Sweden to Hong Kong. Once here, indulge in the different varieties available and buy in bulk to save cash. The alley is also home to the 100m sprint event which sees competitors racing across the pavement in a bid to win cash. On visiting, take some time to visit the homes of INFERNO 9 members which are in close walking distance and the official meeting room of INFERNO 9 - the 'Big Mac' house. This area is however tightly guarded by the SAPD so be sure to bring a deagle if you want to survive the first hit of the bong and live to tell the tale.

Justin Djay - Nitro spitting, wheel spinning and wheelie pulling Israeli is a true OG hailing from Idlewood. He was brought into INFERNO 9 as a young'un and quickly impressed fellow niggas which led to him joining our crew.

The ballas found him roaming around pointlessly in Idlewood and brought him onboard to complement the growing global activity in the city. Since then, he has grown into a tremendous asset but make no mistake, this Scotsman will be happy to blow a hole in your face if you mess with him and his lasses.
Lance Downson - Growing up with Serbian tigers, Lance grew up the hard way led by a life surrounded in poverty and political corruption.

INFERNO 9 HALL OF FAMEThe INFERNO 9 hall of fame is a tribute to those who have played a detrimental role in shaping the ethos and culture of the group through good and harsh times. These people deserve recognition for their friendship, belief and overall trust which has stood the test of time. The INFERNO 9 hall of fame is the ultimate achievement in Idlewood and serves as daily motivation to those who follow INFERNO 9 in their journey towards their goals and aspirations.
Lustigkurre - Oscar award winning pilot of 2010 Lustigkurre is a dear friend of INFERNO 9 and Rage Incorporated [RI]. Since 2008 he, HubbeStubbe, Truth and Malcolm have continuously sat alongside us to introduce new people to Gas Station 9. A master of roleplaying, his unconventional style baffles new players whereby animations are primarily used to communicate with others. This cowboy has more skill then the eye can see - evidenced by his tremendous aerobatic navigation combined with a humorous personality and disgruntled attitude to the SAPD. Rumour has it his flight time exceeds 500 hours; all we know is that he is a undercover INFERNO 9 member and affectionately known as the leader of INFERNO 9 since September 2009.
[RI]Pete_Dubz - The legal representative has played a monumental role within INFERNO 9, setting the foundations for new player development. As part of his vision, he believed to improve the community was achievable by teaching new players a set of principles which would consequently outweigh the comedian antics of others. This vision has been turned into an INFERNO within our group, drawing his extension on his prestigious image as one of the forefathers of new player development.
[RI]Joey_DeRossi - Joey stated his humble beginnings in Los Santos. He found his first group Rage Incorporated [RI] and things kicked off since then. He's a man known for tremendous roleplay and having the ability to make friends, allies and supporters. Joey was trained in the Rage Incorporated [RI] and practises the beliefs of supporting new players. Since his achievements, he has retired from Argonath taking a break to focus on more important things in real life. We wish him the very best of luck and continue to support him however we can.
MISSION STATEMENT - ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALLFriendship first, gaming second is our motto - INFERNO 9 consists of tightly knit friends spanning across the world. The nationalities that represent our group include Sweden, South Africa, Greece, Hong Kong, India and many more. As we have grown to respect global cultures and traditions, we believe in embracing players from different backgrounds regardless of server orientation. We provide an atmosphere which allows new players to ask questions, be part of the action and act accordingly in like with guidance. In time, we expect new players to leave the 'nest' and continue with their Argonath career instilled with principles and ethos that allow us to sustain our privileged position. As a new player welcoming group, we are compliant with the Argonath Vision and believe in creating a roleplay style unique to Argonath. We do not endorse IC/OOC, metagaming and other symbolic rules associated with real life roleplay servers. Instead, we offer the ability to be flexible and tailor roleplay matching the content of the recipient. We seek to improve the roleplay culture of Argonath by having a set of principles and values that are admired by all. In turn, we aim to become the most admired, prestigious and influential group in Argonath. The journey will be turbulent, but we are confident that our friendship will prevail and lead us to sustainable recognition through regulars, veterans and most importantly new players.
THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF BALLAS (NBA) AND APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMSince the beginning of INFERNO 9, we have created an apprenticeship program which is a fast track line to a successful Argonath career. During the introduction of your stay, we aim to instil values that will protect you from heavy handed admins and those who seek to exploit new players. We will guide you through your journey until you are ready to leave the 'nest' or alternatively to stick around in a chance to be invited into INFERNO 9.
You can expect professionalism on our behalf but a strict regime in aim of co-operation. In order to join the NBA, you simply need to put on a balla / nigga skin and visit INFERNO 9 in Idlewood (also see application for offcial recognition). After which you have earned our trust, you will be invited into our private CB channel where we will work with you to highlight your strengths, weaknesses and how you can improve. The range of advice can include friendly banter on /p to roleplay skills. In time, we will expect you to lead roleplays and subsequently teach new players. Most often, the new players we teach reach a stage where they attract attention from other groups and are offered positions elsewhere. It's natural to leave and gain exposure elsewhere and we will always continue to support our players regardless of orientation they choose. However, express caution as walking to Idlewood in a Mexican outfit can attract negative attention! To enhance the experience of becoming part of the NBA, please complete the following form for which we will use to monitor your performance over time:

INFERNO 9 BRANCH MANAGER & RECRUITMENTThe BRANCH MANAGER is the role model in INFERNO 9. He is a substitute for leadership but does not have control over the same issues that a leader may. For example, he will be the focal contact should issues arise in the group and will be responsible for monitoring the activity of members, attitude and any foreseen challenges. At present, Jethro Smith is the current BRANCH MANAGER and has been for a long time. In line with democratic principles, we normally rotate the BRANCH MANAGER role every 6 months to offer all members the possibility to undertake the role at one point of their INFERNO 9 career.
For those who choose to decline offers of joining other groups, we offer a full membership scheme in INFERNO 9 which is invite only. We look for players who are friendly, professional, have a good sense of humour combined with a true passion for teaching new players. If you feel this suits you well, we are confident you have a place in our group. We encourage regulars, veterans and new players to roam around with us to get a feeling for what we do day in and day out.
After spotting you around in Idlewood, you will progress up the ranks of the NBA in aim of catching our eye. We will be looking for the stuff we outlined above and discussing your flexibility and attitude to other people among us. In time, when we feel you are ready, you will be invited to the 'Big Mac' house where you will undergo a series of questions. This is also known stage one of recruitment into INFERNO 9 - there after, you will be asked to undergo a roleplay test (stage two) with our members to test your competencies and how you handle difficult situations. On passing this, INFERNO 9 members will vote whether to accept you as a full member or not. If successful, your Argonath journey will have only started.
INFERNO 9 MEMBERSHIP PRIVILEGES (MSN, CB and TEAMSPEAK)On joining INFERNO 9, a gateway of friendship will be opened for you. We use MSN as our primary communication tool when not in game, often having conversations around sports, news and funny videos. You'll have a opportunity to speak to people from all over the world including Greece and Hong Kong. To further complement this, we regularly run a TeamSpeak channel in which we talk to each other through a microphone often making for hilarious conversations especially when putting Hong Kong in the same room as Scotland, England, Sweden and India. We operate an invite only policy in TeamSpeak and nobody outside INFERNO 9 and HALL OF FAME members will be allowed inside the channel.
BENCHMARK POSITIONING IN COMMUNITYWe are very proud of our heritage and in the one and half year's we been active, we have accumulated numerous achievements coupled with formal and informal awards. Despite having a turnover of more then 20 players in INFERNO 9, we have retained a strong position for keeping our home grown talent and we have only suffered the set back of one member being banned with the offence being committed prior to joining INFERNO 9. We have an excellent admin record in following the rules and this is exhibited both ingame and out of game. Complementing this, we won the Oscar for best roleplay group in 2009 and to add further delight we can rest assured that none of our votes were bought, corrupted nor contravened around the value of sportsmanship and being selfish by voting for ourselves unlike other groups. We continue to practice our enjoyment of roleplay to high standards in Argonath and encourage all players to visit the ballas and interact at one point over their SA:MP career.
WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE DO ITIn the time that INFERNO 9 has been running, we have explored different scenarios to keep our new players motivated and to keep challenging their mind and way of thinking. We have designed the following events to highlight their skills for leadership, collaboration and trust. Bear in mind, that the frequency of these events can vary from time to time and depends on whether the NBA can find some time away from eating Kentucky Fried Chicken!
STREET PATROLWalking around Idlewood has never been more important. Rival factions are always looking to attack the strong hold of INFERNO 9 ranging from Mexicans to Russians. We carry out daily patrols in aim of warding off threats and letting them know we won't be pushed around. It's common for the SAPD to escort us around town as they are aware that trouble is always to be found with INFERNO 9. Street patrols can include a variety of mini events and usually leads to carnage and large media attention.
JUNGLE CALLSummoning the true strength of the city is a monumental event in its own right. The server wide famous JUNGLE CALL is an event unlike any other. Depending on the objective whether it be a riot, protest or co-ordinated killing normally involves around 40 people and that's not even including the SAPD! So it may be in your favour to attend as fireworks are guaranteed in line with an explosive ending which makes for a great overall event.
TAXATIONThe city of Los Santos is a dangerous place to live in. The SAPD struggle to contain violence on a daily basis and the gangs run wild looting shops, people and large businesses. To combat this, INFERNO 9 have setup the taxation program which requires all citizens in Los Santos to pay money for protection. If they disagree, they will be exterminated - if they agree, they will be spared. Pretty simple stuff but when a taxing person who may belong to a different faction, the situation quickly escalates. Which side are you on?
ROYAL RUMBLEThe Royal Rumble is part of the NBA program. The aim of this event is to encourage fighters regardless of background to win the ultimate event in which the last man standing in the ring is the winner. The event usually attracts people all over Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas and is one of the largest draws for the NBA. You can usually expect tempers to flare and fights kick off as rival factions clash in the ring in brutal style. Better watch out for the cops though as standing still can be considered a crime in this corrupt town.
DRUG BARONS OF LOS SANTOSThrough support of the community, we are in a privileged position to hold the largest reserve of narcotics in the city of Los Santos with 500,000.00 grams of weed which has a street value of $1,750,000.00. We are working alongside our apprentices to slowly inject this large quantity into the city and find suitable buyers who will put it to good use. Come see the ballas to find out more, but approach with caution as the ballas are wary of sting operations and if they mistake you for a officer, you may never leave live to tell the tale again.
DEMOCRACTIC PREVALENCE & AWARDSINFERNO 9 is a democratic group but unique in a sense that we do not have a leader. Instead, all decisions which impact the group infrastructure are made through voting polls. We are proud to have people from all over the world in INFERNO 9 and recognise the need for flexibility. This is why where we embrace difference cultures, traditions and ways of thinking in aim of reaching unparalleled levels of friendship and understanding.
In 2010, the Argonath Oscars were held - during which INFERNO 9 members agreed to live the value of sportsmanship by not voting for themselves. Despite being only 9 members at the time, the group went up against groups such as Gvardia which were more then triple the size of INFERNO 9. Instead of keeping the event fair, groups such like this voted in favour of their own group. Logically, the larger the group the higher chance of winning the award would be so it would not be hard to understand why certain groups won the awards in this year. Despite being outnumbered, INFERNO 9 won the best roleplay group of 2009 through strong community backing. This was taking into consideration that not a single INFERNO 9 member voted for their own group - INFERNO 9 live the value of sportsmanship and feel that fairness in events such as these are paramount to a healthy community.
In 2011, despite heavy criticism over the Oscars in 2010 - the same rules applied which allowed members of a group to vote for themselves. INFERNO 9 like in 2010, stuck close to their principles and did not vote for themselves however members from Gvardia and 58th Street Connecta did otherwise for their own groups and being the largest groups in Argonath won the best criminal group and best roleplay group. Whilst we condemn their actions, we understand for this reason why Argonath can never be a democracy. It is groups like these that cast a dark shadow over the community and it's regretful that their group leaders allowed this to happen.
INFERNO 9 despite being a much smaller group narrowly lost out to 58th Street Connecta for best roleplay group of 2010. Regardless of winning or not, we are very proud of our achievements and thank all those who supported us over the course of our journey. We will always remain true to our principles and for the sake of the community continue to demonstrate sportsmanship as our ideal values. We will not stoop to the same level as other groups by shamelessly and selfishly tuning votes in our favour; this is our promise to the community and will continue to be the peoples champion for the foreseeable future.
INFERNO 9 RULES AND REGULATIONSBecoming an INFERNO 9 member is no joke. To achieve a role in this group takes time, dedication, maturity and most importantly a friendly attitude - To those lucky enough to be part of the group, we enforce rules to ensure consistency across the board and ensure that the image we emit is one of transparency and fairness but most importantly to instil positive relationship building.

PROVISIONAL WITHDRAWN FROM ARUN & OFFICIAL GROUPSIn 2010, INFERNO 9 was invited to a meeting with the owners to discuss whether the group should become part of ARUN which is the body which represents official groups. As per the democratic system in INFERNO 9, acting branch manager Jethro Smith undertook the responsibility for discussing the issue with the owners. In the middle of the conversations and through relaying messages back, INFERNO 9 voted against joining ARUN as the official status was foreseen to add unneeded pressure on the group among other concerns. As a result of withdrawal, the group was penalised and subsequently closed. The decision to close INFERNO 9 was based on misunderstanding on the side of INFERNO 9 and the owners. On discussing this, the group was reopened by the owners and continued to operate as normal.
ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND ALL THE BORING STUFFAt the creation of INFERNO 9, it was decided to keep all properties, investments, assets and liabilities undisclosed to the public of Argonath. Whilst INFERNO 9 operates through its official business enterprise - the National Balla Association (NBA), it is not floated on the NASDAQ market unlike its predecessor. The group continues to invest a large sum of financial measures into the community in many shapes and forms and continues to support the local society around Idlewood to the fullest of our capabilities.
GROUP RELATIONSINFERNO 9 does not endorse the current validation system. Our position is very clear in a sense that all ingame activity should stay ingame. Any verbal exchanges are based on situations in game only and will not in our eyes continue for a prolonged period without our consent. Any breach of this will be reported accordingly with the accountable party being named and shamed. If you want to discuss group relations further, you can contact Jethro Smith ingame or via the forum.
RELATIONSHIP WITH SAPDUnlike any other criminal group in Los Santos, we maintain a strong underlying relationship with the SAPD command on all issues both in game and out of game. Whilst we come across as very troublesome in Idlewood towards the SAPD, we provide them with a training platform to train freecops and other SAPD staff in discipline and restraint. This work is vice versa where the SAPD train ballas in what type of crimes are moderately acceptable and what will not be tolerated. Out of game, we work on issues facing the criminal sect and how the SAPD can be improved internally. We foresee this relationship to continue into the future and look forward to improving whatever we can in the near future.
COMPLAINTS, ISSUES AND CONCERNSWe take the complaints very seriously in INFERNO 9 and highlight them all at our monthly meetings. Any complaint should be submitted with the appropriate evidence (screenshots, logs and time) to Jethro Smith where he will readily seek a resolution and compensate you if appropriate. This is however void if you choose to post on our topic, bad mouth the group ingame or on the forums. We reserve the right to refuse to investigating complaints if made in foul taste and expect the person who highlighted it to follow the regular server complaint procedure.
