This guy was the epitome of seeing Hugh Jackman or Beyonce in the flesh while doing some everyday activity normal people do. It was absolutely exciting. Kinda weird in comparison to today as Internet celebrities are a dime a dozen. Seeing him was a pretty surreal experience considering his influence on counter-strike. A true E-celeb of the early Internet days.
We'd play on that server for hours. Usually getting killed by Hell Boy, Homicidal Ape and Funny Hat Man. It was still a ton of fun especially on occasion when people would tell Jason they had sex with his mother.
My friend then told me about Joe.to and the forums where all the people from RH4 hung out. And from there I was hooked. The game went beyond just a game and it became a community I was proud to take part of. Looking back through my post history you can see a cringy little kid grow up and become more and more self aware of himself. I have this community to thank for that.
Years later after the reign of Jesus Knievel, Volmarias, the OI clan and Joe/many others leaving- this place is a totally different atmosphere. Where's all the piss and vinegar? You guys use to make fun of me for being a redneck with a TV in my dining room. This was the first community that made me cry on the Internet. And now- legends are just legends. We've all grown up and are slowly forgetting what this site gave us.
A place to shit talk.
We all have jobs, some of us families, real life obligations. We're no longer sweaty 15 year olds who have countless weekends to dedicate to gaming.
And you know what- I miss It. I miss you guys. This community was a social life of its own for me, but times have changed.
Thanks for reading my ramblings. Gonna go bang Jason's mom now.
