Introduction:

Chapter 1: Re-Purchasing GTA:SA and discovering SA-MP
I originally purchased GTA:SA for PS2 on the day of release. I completed the game and basicly got bored of it after I completed all the missions, but 2 years from that day, around July 06 I had a urge to play GTA:SA on my computer, so I purchased the PC version of the game, after completing the missions yet again I got bored once again.

Chapter 2: Discovering and my first steps on LVP
Then in late November I had another urge to play GTA:SA after I found the game under a pile of other games and then had the urge to play the game once again, but after completing the game for the third time I just randomly started googling "San Andreas Online" after hearing from someone that you was able to play it online which finally led me to SA-MP, I downloaded the client straight away and encountered some problems which were soon solved and then I started the client, I clicked the "Internet List" originally but there were so many servers to choose from so then I just clicked on the "Official Servers" instead, as thats where most players were playing, I first started playing on "Partyserver" and somehow got rich due to some hacker giving me a hell load of cash, but then I later got bored and quit.
The next day I started browsing for servers once again and it happened to be "Las Venturas Playground", The first couple of days I thought I had to be a regular to talk seeing as when I asked "Can anybody see this?" and no one responded thinking I had to be a regular to chat, after a few days of asking the same question finally someone responded and told me that they could see what I wrote which happened to be "TEF", I first thought I was just going to quit finding out that everyone on the server was a ignorant cunt but then registered seeing as I couldn't find any other server that gave me the same experience as LVP.
When I finally registered I started out just shooting random people as they walked by and playing minigames but after playing them so many times I got bored once again and started shooting up passersby more often and I actually enjoyed this but the only problem was that I couldn't hit many people at the time due to hitboxes but I continued to do so.
I also had another problem, I kept getting killed by [BA] and [BB] as they always shiphogged which led me to frustration, and stopped playing for a few days.

Chapter 3: My journey of making money and joining my first clan
What I also loved about LVP was buying properties and making money from them, I met some guy called [GoT]SP33D or whatnot and he showed me multiple properties all over San Andreas, I finally filled my bank and could not deposit no more and then found out that I needed pluspoints but by then I already had a fair amount of ingame time on LVP so playing more wasn't needed, after a few days with [GoT]SP33D, he dissapeared and never saw him again until the year later, never knew why he dissapeared.
After filling my bank once again, I started getting spawn weapons with the money that I made, but before that I observed what weapons other players were using, I first started off with Sawnoff/Tec 9 combo but that didn't do the deal for me so then I later switched to the Sawnoff/Uzi combo.
I started shooting abit more and trying to find out more about hitboxes but that didn't really help, so I thought I had to join a clan and hopefully they could teach me how to deal with this hitbox situation I have had problems with, So I started observing some clans, the clans I had in mind at the time was [BA], [BB], [HC4L] and [H].
I thought long and hard and decided to go with [H] as I thought they weren't too good but wasn't too bad either and reasons why I didn't join [BA] or [BB] because I thought I would never get accepted seeing as I was really bad at the time, although I was leaning towards [BB] but eventually went with [H], and the reason why I didn't want to join [HC4L] was because I just didn't like the tag.
So I PM'd [H]Infamous ingame and had a test, from what I remember, I didn't do very well in my tests, but after my first test Infamous told me more about hitboxes and on my second test I did alot better somehow and got accepted as a trial member.
As time progressed I had gotten better at lead aiming and after some time I finally beat Infamous in a duel. From that day on I always thought my best times in LVP was when I was in [H].

Chapter 4: [H] going inactive and leaving [H] for [Sw]
After some time [H] went inactive and I wanted to join a new clan, the clans I had in mind were [BB] and [Sw], I chose [Sw] and became a trial member then a full member, from what I remember, this wasn't a good decision by me due to the fact that there were no activity inside the clan so I needed a excuse to leave and I basicly took Benji's leaving reason and amended it to exams when I didn't even have any.
Since I said I was going to doing my exams I played undercover for a while and then finally coming back clanless.

Chapter 5: {U} > Clanless > [H]
After I came back clanless I played normally for a while until I had the urge to have leadership which gave me an idea to create a clan, I didn't really want it to be a fighting clan so I just decided it to be a stunting clan, which it was until some other members started to join such as Haze_Blaze and they gave me the idea to get some wars going on so I challenged [BB] and It didn't exactly go well seeing as I didn't sleep that day and was tired as hell but since I go by the schedule, I went with it anyway and edned up losing bad.
Then I just gave up on {U} and became clanless again for some time until I heard [H] was trying to be re-created but with the new leader Stefan as he was the leader when Infamous seperated clans from [H] to [D].
I joined [H] again and we had a good run, recruiting some good members but then suddenly we hit another slope and went inactive once again to this day I am still in [H] but stopped wearing the tag seeing as i'm using a new name ( EyEamFarePak ) and it just doesn't look right so I just didn't add to it.

Chapter 6: Moving on to new games and playing the bare minimum
After my sweet adventure through LVP I finally decided my time was up and needed a new game, and this was absolutely the best time for that as I heard there was a new Red Alert game was coming out in a few months and as I was a Red Alert fan since the original Red Alert I just needed to get the new Red Alert game and thats what I did, but there was a problem, the current laptop at the time couldn't handle the game and I bought a brand new laptop just to play it, but then I still didn't like the quality so I moved on to building my first computer as I was convinced by long time friend mjaa.
Currently I still play Red Alert 3 and trying to hit rank 1 on the 2v2 ladder but closest i've gotten to rank 1 to this day was rank 3, and for anybody who thinks thats easy its out of 3000+ players.
I still play LVP sometimes for fun but currently I just play the bare minimum.

Extras 1: From the nice guy to the troll
As I look back when I first joined LVP I was known to be quite a nice guy, but as time progressed on LVP, I was influenced by the behaviour of the players of LVP and its pretty obvious whats the behaviour of LVP is like so I caught the flamefest and joined in, and from then i've been quite the troll as you've all might of noticed but you can't blame me its quite easy to catch.

Extras 2: My time in [H]
My time in [H] was probably the best time I had throughout the time I played on LVP so I took the time to make this very own sort of chapter to thank them.

[H]Infamous
[H]mjaa
[H]Stefan

And all the rest.

The people mentioned above made the biggest impact on me and they were very good ingame friends.
Infamous was the one accepting me into [H] and also started me off with getting me better with shooting and hitting hitboxes/lead aim.
mjaa was the one of the cool sweds who is the only one up for a chat anytime and anywhere and am still in contact with him daily through X-Fire/MSN,
Stefan was the one who didn't really speak much but was a really cool guy ingame, never really seen him flame or anything, rare to find a Stefan in LVP.

Extras 3: Scripting
I was interested in how servers were made which led me to finding out how servers were made and after finding out how to make servers I started learning the languages, I started off making scripts based on other peoples scripts and got feedback from them while I progressed whilst learning Pawn, after I mastered learning Pawn I started my own private projects but my ideas were too huge and never really finished my final project due to the fact that there were so much to do and I just could not finish it myself.
Today, I wish I never learn't Pawn as it pretty much wasted my holiday in 2008 learning while I was in my hotel and whatnot, and now figured out how useless Pawn is.

Extras 4: IRC + Myke
Ever since I got VIP I visited IRC daily and somehow met Myke ingame but knew him more through IRC, we talked alot about bullshit and to this day there are only 2 people who I have contact with daily which is mjaa and Myke.

Extras 5: Starting out the BlogTV trend.
As alot of us know few months back there was some hype over BlogTV, this was due to a [H]Pedaln linking me to him while he does aload of shit on BlogTV with his fat friend, it was some good times, I introduced BlogTV to TRaven and then there was some good times at the start with TRaven and Xen0n doing some funny shit and reaching a amazing amount of viewers and even getting a moderator into the live stream because of Xen0n's ass, there were a group of us who then brought this to LVP and they were Pedaln, myself, Myke, TRaven and Xen0n.
I'm quite sure but its always at the start of things that were the most fun and in this case it was also true, our small group which contained the people above were always a blast but as time got by the LVP community got in the trend and it got all boring, but finally the BlogTV times has kinda died off.

Thanks to those who read my introduction.

Yours truely, me.



P.S Only reason I made this because it was 4:00AM and I was really bored.
