Hey !

I don't know how many people are gonna read this message but still, It's been a very long time I should have posted this up and since I'm planning on coming back, I'm doing it now. Better late than never right ?

So it's been a while you haven't seen me on any argonath server, I think the last time I connected to SAMP was at the end of 2008, so a very big time as you can imagine. But between 2006 and 2008, I was a regular of argonath RPG, had the pseudo of Jack_Shelton and then, Ahito_sleepgoal. I would connect every evenig and spend hours playing with people coming from eveywhere, using Englisgh in the process, obviously. So I started to take a big interest in Shakespeare's tongue, working harder and harder to be abble to communicate properly on argonath. Then, when I left Argonath, this passion I had acquired for English didn't drop, I kept studying to be the best in English in my class, then went to university to study English before getting my degree in english. And here I am today, after one year spent in Dublin and two days from starting a master to become an English teacher.

In short, my life wouldn't have been the same without argonath RPG and I'd like to thank it's creator for this, Gandalf, but also any other admin that were already part of the team back in the days. Also thank you for keeping the community up, allowing me to get back in time, 5 years ago when I was this teenage kid having a hard time understanding anything or anyone xD

In conclusion, thank you argonath, and I'll see you again soon ;)

np bro.

You know you're wrong if you hide behind your invisible powers you never had in real life. Those who watch me will entirely understand.

Why do I do what I do? Because I know you won't stand someone opposing you. And because you know you can't prove me I'm wrong.

When people tell me that argo does not give a shit to you, I directly point out to things like these. Argonath is more then a samp server, you would only imagne how much this community can help you evolve as a person.
Well said, Raiden

I see we both learned English the same place :)
Improved myself a whole lot more at expressing myself in English on Argonath than I ever did at school.
I thank you for this wonderful reminder, and I wish you the best in your future endeavours!

I myself think, that around 10 percent, and maybe even 20 percent, learned/improved their english by playing on Argonath, my first unban request was made with google translator! Probably, without Argonath, I would never been able to have a 9 (A) for the past years in my english class. I enjoy speaking english over my main language, and I am developing english faster, and easier then my main language, I think I even understand more things in english then I do in dutch. Yet in French and German, I suck :P So ye, Argonath helped me too, and without Argonath, I would be a even bigger failure then I already am! So also from me, thanks Argonath, and good luck with your master!

Great to see I'm not the only one.

A few days ago I had to write a short essay for English class and as it's rare for a Moroccan Dutchman to write in proper English, my teacher didn't believe I wrote it myself and accused me of cheating, lying and whatnot.

He gave me a pen and some paper and told me to summarize my essay. I started writing while he was reading with me over my shoulder. Half way he told me to stop, asked for the class' attention and eventually gave me a public apology. He asked me where I learned English and I told him 'internet', haha.

I have to say my English has improved since I joined Argonath. Thanks for that.

A similar situation happened to me this year. My teacher couldn't believe me, so he ordered me to "speak out my mind" in English. Of course, I did what he told me and he was impressed by my fluency. Now I'm the straight A student in all the 8th grade classes in my school. Probably in my city/country but I have no sufficient evidence.

Thank you, Argonath RPG! My brother thanks you too! Now, he's the straight A student!
