This will probably be indifferent for you guys or even irrelevant but I just feel like saying it.
For others that recognize my name ( or not ), I would really like if you would read it all
So, I'm here, again.
My name is Samuel Rodrigues "Salyn" and I used to be a stunter some years ago.
I started to come to this forum in the end of 2008 and also during the whole year of 2009 but I only created an account in the year after because I just used the forums for information and was a bit "scared" to be part of a community since it would be my first time. I spent some years in here, still not posting that much but I was quite active. I used to play San Andreas a lot with some of you and I loved the game back then but then I just got tired of not being able to accomplish all of my stunting objectives and so I quitted the game and started doing some other stuff and playing other games. I was completly tired of it.
The thing is... now I miss it.
I miss all of those days.
I can clearly say that I wasn't that.. famous, or even known by most of the people but, back then, I felt like I knew all of you. I used to love those afternoons playing in SA-MP stunting all together or even making those Monster fights on top of that huge black building in SF. I miss everything of that, especially the people.
Even tho I quitted, I did appear in the forum 3 or 4 times during the whole year to just.. wander around and see if there were any news and I can say that some things made me a bit sad. Well, correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like every of those people that "were the community", I mean, the stunters that I used to know from 2010 to ~2013 are all gone. Don't get me wrong but I feel like the community is filled with only people I don't know and new stunters everywhere. I can't recognize any nicknames I see in some of the topics.
Again, don't get me wrong, I bet all of those new stunters are nice people
To be honest, like I said, I haven't been here for some time and can't really say much about it so I might be wrong in this... Hope I am.
The reason why I've never stood out and been in videos like everyone else, colabs, solo's, etc, is mainly because I wanted to make kinda like a... huge thing and just appear from out of nowhere with the best stunts that I got. I was trying for like 2 years or something, to make a Solo with all of my best stunts but some of them were so hard that made me rage and quit the game. I
was am such a perfectionist that I didn't feel good with myself until I would land those stunts perfectly. Also, I had some problems on getting some really nice spots and I didn't want to make anything that someone had already made/landed, so I can say that some of them took months to discover and I kept trying for even way more months. My finisher for that Solo is still uncompleted today and I tried it for more than a year. Not even kidding.
Yeah, I had that patience... for some time
I don't know what to do with those replays now but I'll think about it.
Since I miss all of you and the game so much, I'm gonna be back to stunt. I'll need some help of you guys on getting some sweet SA-MP servers since I lost so much files including replays, sa-mp files, screenshots, etc.
I would like to show you the few stunts I have on youtube but I can't remember the videos. The only one I can remember is Beat's Ultraviolet. I'll link it below
Really, I used to love all of that. Miss the old days.
Sorry if my english is a bit weird. Haven't been speaking it for some time.
My stunt is the finisher, at 3:06 -
Beat's Ultraviolet ( I didn't know if would post this here or in some other section. Felt like it would fit here in the Introduce Yourself section ).
Thanks for reading it all guys!
