That last achievement is actually still locked so he can't get it yet.

@ Rob
"Does Jesus come down and give him all the hours of his real life back that he wasted on WoW? Because unless that shit happens, I will debate this dude "won" anything."

This made my day. I needed this laugh. My sentiments exactly. I hate MMORPGs.

i am speechless.

Sure we can all laugh and look down on him, but he has truly achieved something we can never accomplish. Whether it was a worthwhile accomplishment is another matter entirely.

Ouch, Rob--talk about pistol-whipping an anemic opponent...the article doesn't even have any chest-thumping remarks by the guy himself.

Congrats to the MMORPG loser. Now maybe he'll finally leave the house, get a job, and get a girlfriend like his mom has been nagging him about from the top of the stairs for the last year?

I think I know someone who may be right behind this guy. Although in his case, it's a person who is a severe shut in for various medical reasons, and WoW is the only social interaction he can handle without severe levels of debilitating medication.

Thanks for the self-esteem boost. :D

And I hate it when people call glitches "cheating" or "not legitimate". It's in the game, get over it.

I should begin playing WoW just to get one point more at everything than this guy, just to be mean. What a Doctor Doom like way to screw with somebody!

All jokes aside this man has accomplished NOTHING. I have a friend who plays this game to no end and basically has no life. There are many other aspects to life than living in this false world where your accomplishment are meaningless. Nobody is going to give a degree for playing WOW yet the time spent you could probably get your doctorate. But if you think that this is important to you by all means... sit there.

Not to sound racist but what is with Asian nationals and their obsession with online PC gaming? Especially Blizzard-type products? You not only win millions of dollars playing "StarCraft" in Korea but there's an entire effing sub-genre of stand-up comedy based around "StarCraft." That guy who died because he didn't poop or pee (because he would have had to walk away from his WoW game!) was Korean. Yeah, there are a lot of fat Europeans and American who play too many MMORPGs and take them too seriously but cross over into the East and it becomes another thing entirely.

Guild Wars had end credits for chapter completion... it was weird that the game went on after the credits.

Sad to say it but everyone calling this guy a looser and saying he has no life is kind of like the pot calling the kettle black.

Bet his gear sucks.

"Congrats to the MMORPG loser. Now maybe he'll finally leave the house, get a job, and get a girlfriend like his mom has been nagging him about from the top of the stairs for the last year?"

I've always been curious why these kinds of stories trigger such nastiness (see above) in the readers of this blog. It's not just snark, either, which would be typical, but real anger.

What a total loser. How could he spend so much time on something so utterly meaningless?

Now if you'll excuse me I'll go rewatch TNG and read disturbing fan fiction ironically.

What is it about geeks that makes them piss all over the parade of some other geek?

Wait a minute. What parade? I never seen this guy interviewed. He's not throwing it in your face. I have never seen him claim to have "won" or "finished" anything. They pulled him out of a database. Yeah he plays WoW alot. So do 10 million other people.

Achievement points come from playing the game. If you go to enough raids, win enough PvP matches, then you'll rack up the points to. All he gets for his points are a couple of titles, a couple of vanity pets, and a shit-ton of grief.

The Internet - Where people love to hate.

I bet some asshole is gonna try to hack this guy's WoW account and fuck it up, just to be a massive dick. If I were "Little Gray", i'd have my account backed-up (if that's possible). If something bad happened to LG's account, the guy would probably pull a Cobain.

I would just like to point something out, especially to all the "zmg, he has no life!" people. The odds of this person being the only person playing his account are so astronomically low, I think its laughable that no one has commented about it before. His /played time since wrath came out has apparently been nearly 100% of server up time. One person can't do that. Also, he plays on non-us servers. Blizz is much more lenient about account sharing outside of the US.

This guy is probably a collection of 5-6 friends who all play on this toon. There are just not enough hours in the day for this to be one person.

I bet these guys are just sitting back and laughing, having beaten wow while playing only a few hours a day while people who legitimately play 15 hours a day say they have no life :P

So just how much time do you spend on the computer, Rob? Not only editing a weekly blog, but also checking other blogs, checking emails, work stuff, Twitter, and generally keeping up with life on the internet, huh?

Hmm. This World of Warcraft guy is EPIC FAIL, MAN. WHAT A COLOSSAL LOSER.

This reminds me of how I spent too much time and too many quarters playing Defender back when I was a kid. After a great deal of practice I scored over a million points. But what did I win? Nothing. If I had spent my time a little more wisely by getting a job and simply putting the money in the bank, I could be retired by now.

Wow... Just... Wow...
Maybe now he can move out of his mom's basement and finally find a girlfriend.

Kinda sad, if you know what I mean. Although I'll admit that I admire his commitment to WoW, sticking with it for so long and making it to the (almost) end.
How much do you wanna bet that he's on a first name basis with every pizza delivery guy in a ten block radius from his home? Not to mention chinese food take out restaurants.

This guy who "won" needs to be subpoenaed by Raven, for that court case with that whiny bitch whos Suing WoW and prove that if he can waste that much time on the game then no one else has an excuse to complain about giving up their life to it

What the hell is wrong with the majority of people posting here? Or more to the point where does this irrational hatred and spite come from? Imagine if you were this guy, who has not personally attacked any fucking one of you on this or any other forum, and you read some of the very personal comments made about you.
Go on, try emphasizing with someone else instead of spewing out hate on a website.
He may have accomplished nothing, and that is a subjective view - what the fuck have any of us achieved in our lives that is really going to make a difference when we die, but he has not hurt anyone directly or indirectly. Get some perspective.

That is DAMN COOL. Because when you win a game, you are allowed to STOP PLAYING. Screw all y'all whiners, you're just bitter that this dude has accomplished what so many others have not: he has escaped hell instead of just giving up.

That makes him and Dante and arguably Jesus.

I bet he lives in his mom's basement. Ho ho! I bet he orders a lot of pizzas. Ho ho. I bet he doesn't have a girlfriend. Ho.. ho.

You guys need some new material. That shit wasn't funny in the 80s' when they were saying it about D&D nerds and it isn't funny now.

well, it is pretty impressive that he did all that. i mean, its world of warcraft, i didn't even think you could reach some finite point at which youve done everything. but he did, i guess. and why be cynical about it - lots of people play this game nonstop, at least he got a title out of it. congrats dude.

but did he get the achievement my wife got: MARRIAGE FAIL. Or "Divorce Jenkins"

W.o.W always wins.

I don't play video games. too many buttons. However, I struggle to find any perspective that doen't consider this awesome. This is awesome. Good for the little gray korean fellow and any friends who helped him on his way.

"Fuck you things that are too hard for me!! Fuck You!! Don't sit there and act so hard at me or my little gray Korean friend will beat you fucking stupid!!" and so on...

Every challenge life has for me now seems scared for its life. Awesome.

Seems alot of people make fun of him, yet everyone fails to realise that in game of world of addicts this guy has achieved what no other addict did, in other terms the guy is a genuis.
And everyone who calls him a loser, sigh common guys, most of you are losers, hes gonna become famous, and blizzard will sponsor him.
what did u guys do recently? run around ogrimmar.

Congrats!!!..He should also be given an award for those achievements.
I cant even think that I can achieve those,that was sick man!
