Hello Argonath,

I was known as Link9rly, LinkGnarly, or LinkSforza on the Argonath Server. My real name is John Carl P. . I was born in the United States in Pasadena California, though only lived there for 2 years. I've lived in Spain, which is my dad's home country, but now I live in a small, boring town in Georgia in the United States. I am currently 14.

I first joined Argonath on the summer of '08. I was bored and looking for something to relive my depression. I had a crush on a girl who I really had no chances with. I was a big fan of Grand Theft Auto back then, but at the time, I hadn't played it in a long time. My first experience with Grand Theft Auto was when I was 10 or so. I played Vice City on my friend's PlayStation 2 and I was addicted within 30 minutes. I played for hours straight, until 4 AM in the morning. So anyway, I decided to buy it for the computer since I saw the modifications you can add to it. I never really modded my computer copy of Vice City, besides the particle mod. While looking up mods, I came across a video of a mod called 'Multi Theft Auto'. I became curious and looked all over for a download then I found it. I went on other servers, which were empty, then I found my solution. On GameMonitor, 'Argonath RPG' shone brightly with 8 players. I came in and like most of us deathmatched on the first entrance. I was kicked, then I was directed towards the rules. After reading the rules, I was very curious of what RP really was. I stereotyped RP for games like WoW, which I disliked for some reason. After a while in-game, I got to know people and became friends with the regulars, which at the time were TeaM-Snake, Emo_Cop, CopSforza, Elite, Wash, Evil, and of course, Miami.

I started on a small job. I was a taxi driver, but instead of a cab, used a helicopter. That helicopter still sits there in Vice Point, owned by Hess. I made small money, but that really didn't matter. Money was never an important thing to me on Argonath servers. I played for fun.

One day, while I was playing, Miami was DJing. He named songs which I really liked, so I keenly tuned in. For that time, everytime I would get on, I would ask 'Is Miami DJing?'. One day, Miami played one of the tracks which always cheers me up and gives me hope. The song was Purgatory Road by Arena. In a small amount of time, Miami and I became best friends, always discussing Progressive Rock music (can anyone say Rush?), drums, and discussing his own music. Miami's first track sent to me was One AM followed by The Machine. The songs were catchy and I listened to them a lot at that time. Miami's compositions got a bit more complex then he sent me 45 Billion Stars, which also is in the list of songs that matter the most to me.

I became a DJ for Argonath when Miami said 'Applications are open :D!'. I quickly made a demo, which I dunno if anyone still possess that. My show started out with mostly listeners from MTA:VC. I was just still not fully 'in Argonath' at that time.

VC:MP was my next stop. Greeted by the awesome players like, Dexter, Klaus, and Solidje (I hope I spelled that correctly cause I always misspell it), and others. I played on it a bit. I remember the first time I joined on it, it was a lot like MTA:VC is nowadays. One player sent me 5k to stay on the server for a bit of RPing. I remember that the first time I joined VC:MP, I was kicked out the Hunter because the turrets and missiles were synced, something I wasn't used to because MTA:VC lacked that. I quickly made friends with the regulars of the server.

Next stop in Argonath was SA:MP. When I first joined SA:MP, I wasn't quite known as I was in VC:MP or MTA:VC. In the first days, I got stuck in the forest and it took me days to get out because I became bored and exited before getting out. I forgot who it was, but he showed me around SA:MP. I hope I remember his name soon, because he was a great help. Some of the people that were my besties there were Jenn_Vice (hai Mom!), Amanda (Hai, other mom!), Flameman (thanks for giving me that second chance when I was an idiot), PoloPolo (You're really a great friend, and a huge help), and many others. I however now return to MTA:VC.

Back in MTA:VC, it was as lively as ever. I made more friends, like BarbarSforza, who's really an awesome friend (If you're reading this Barb, remember 'Got Any Grapes'? xD) and helped me get my smile back no matter how bad I was feeling. However, my golden days didn't last much on MTA:VC. I started becoming more of an idiot, and dishonest. The biggest mistake I ever committed was lying to my best friends, especially Miami and Jordan (I know I said this before, but I still can't apologize enough times for that big mistake I committed). I lied about killing myself. I carried the joke too far and some started to get worried. After they found out it was a lie, they were furious at me. Some asked if I was ok in the head, and some called me a sick twisted person, which is true, but not enough that I can use it as an excuse. I do sometimes take jokes over the limit and cause others misery. I became a total 'depressi-o' on Argonath, flaming myself ingame constantly. I look back at it nowdays and I seemed liked a lunatic. If anyone who was a affected is reading this, I really apologize guys.

Of course, after sometime, those people gave me a second change, which I really am thankful for guys. I can't live without friends. However, my return didn't exactly last long. on January 1, 2010 I was banned for anticipation of hacks, or as the ban says ' admitted to hack usage'. This was because I was trying to leave Argonath, and want to leave permanently.
I do not want this to be classified as a goodbye topic. I'm not looking for attention due to this post. I simply want to tell my story on Argonath, give thanks to everyone who helped me have a wonderful experience on Argonath. I also give thanks to those who tuned into the radio and didn't disrespect me for my choice of music.

I havn't posted in awhile on the forum but I feel I should for this thread.

Carl - I hope this isn't a goodbye forever topic as you clearly know that topics such as these are not allowed. If its not, then all fine... I might aswell take a blind eye to this. Not as if it'll affect me anyways.

I've really appreciated all the times we've spent talking to each other. We are good friends, and yeah maybe we do have our downtimes sometimes.. but well. I guess it all comes down to our very different lifestyles and our somewhat very different personalities. Even though there are all these difference - we still remain good friends and I hope it remains like this for a good while.  :)

Goodluck Carl/Link9rly

Great to learn more things about you mate. I really appreciate our friendship and I actually threat you more like brother than just a friend. You have good heart and it's nice from you to give some credit for your closest friends like this. I know this is not suppose to be any kinda leaving forever topic but I still want to thank you for all moments what we had so far  :)

Keep it up and i'll stay tuned in  ;)

I was just starting to like your radio and yourself, then you leave us just like that?  :mad:


We can't force someone that we like to play so, if you have to take a ''rest'' then do it. I'm still waiting for my request song on Argonath radio.

Bob the Builder  :lol:

All should understand that Argonath is not just something you waste time on. It is a community with heart and soul that will stick together.

Don't worry, he's not gone forever. He's just banned from the TS and SA:MP servers for now. He'll still be forced to pop in on the others due to circumstances I cannot explain at this time. :D

Carl, you're a douche, but you know we all love you. You're a great guy, so don't even think about going anywhere. I know you have much to focus on now, and need to take breaks at times, but who said anything about going away permanently? :)

P.S. That admin that kicked you and told you to read the rules was me. I remember that because you walked in shooting some people that were in the middle of an RP hahaha...
