Assuming he can't find something else to do now, he might actually get a tan :P

But congratulations none the less, I hope it was worth putting life on hold for a few years :P

So many people think you can't have a life to get massive fame?

You just need a few solid runs a night (easy if your team is experienced), coupled with huge fame gathering back in the day, and you're pretty much set. Put in a bit of extra time/get lucky and you can even take holidays!

Then again, I don't know what Star's life is like.

Well wow, grats! Quite an achievement there

. (Not something I'm gonna accomplish anytime soon, LMAO).

VendingMachine · Sep 02, 2008, 05:01 PM // 17:01

Why is it when other people accomplish something higher than themselves they say they have "no-life" but when people accomplish less they call them a "noob". Hypocrites.

ShadowsRequiem · Sep 02, 2008, 05:05 PM // 17:05

Wow I thought that was fake before.... seems kinda lame actually. I thought it would be something nicer....

Great job anyways.

I don't call anyone a noob so I'm not a hypocrite.

Awesome job, I personally love the emote.

Because it almost literally takes "No life" to max out Hero, otherwise we would see a whole lot more people around rank 15 now instead of 4-5.

I don't know but I have heard that multiple people play a certain account for a 24/7 fame income. Now if this is true then if one person were to do this then it does not seem possible for them to "have a life" a life being a job or school or what have you.

Now that is a title/e-mote that commands respect! A lot of skill and dedication went into that! - Congratulations!

Lord Sojar · Sep 03, 2008, 08:28 AM // 08:28

100,000 fame... well... ok.

The emote is pretty cool, although I am not sure the amount of effort required to get said emote is worth it, at least not to me.

But either way, Starcraft earned it and that commands applause and congratulations. So bravo to Starcraft for doing it. Who will get it next?

People don't have r4-5 because they 'have a life'. They have r4-5 because they aren't interested in playing HA, don't play HA often, or because they suck.

I'd personally prefer if you stopped insulting someone you know next to nothing about.

They might really, really, really suck, I'm just giving possibilities. But yes, this is true.

congratulations on r15, although I'm not sure it was worth spending 6+ hours/day for one year

I was never trying to insult anyone, sorry if it came across like this, was mearly a funny..did not think people would take it so seriously :/ I was mearly stating the obvious that with a maxed hero you have different priorities than most others, but that's not for us to judge...it's their life.

I was in the original GanK aka Guillotine Tactics with Typhus, Bongo and Starcraft, I was also in CC for a short while. Starcraft is a friend and I know how dedicated he was in order to achieve this goal. So yes I know plenty about him.

I did not expect you to know that so it's ok...

Congratulations to a friend for being the first to reach this goal

**Edit** Avarre you are most welcome to check my tiger anytime you want if you need verification that I do play HA ^^

Now you may think ok...tiger so what? most of the newer GANK have birds, I decided to take a PVE break for GW2

P.S I think you misread the quote you took from me, I did not say rank four or five, I said there would be a whole lot more people around rank 15 instead of just 4 or 5 persons ^^

BenjZee · Sep 03, 2008, 10:56 PM // 22:56

needz moar fireworks?
I like that someone reached it and i wouldnt say its a wwaste of time especially if theyve had fun. The emote rocks and i expected it to but its slightly lame coulhave been bigger in my opinion

Victorious · Sep 04, 2008, 01:32 AM // 01:32

I haven't put my two-cents worth in yet on any forum, so a massive congratulations Star, you've certainly earned it.

It's interesting to see players posting or even talking about in game how hero is a grind title and how champ>hero. For some reason it just makes me lol. To each their own, and such.

Alleji · Sep 04, 2008, 02:49 AM // 02:49

/grats

I barely have 1/10th of that and I can't even imagine myself having that much dedication for a game, or probably for anything. Which makes it all the more impressive in my eyes. Once again, congratulations.

I actually like the emote being in line with the other rank emotes and not something overly flashy. It's distinctive enough, it will always be rare (unless I greatly underestimate the life expectancy of GW1) and people know what it stands for.

Also, to whoever asked about the guy in tarnished coast - all the title announcements he says are the same for each tier in whatever rank type. ie rank 3 kurzick says the same thing as r12 and r3 hero says the same thing as r15 (excluding the mighty part of r3 vs legendary in r15)

Starcraft only has 800 hours. True story.
