Man "Beats" World of Warcraft
Precision pointed out that a Taiwanese man has been named the first ever person to successfully beat World of Warcraft, getting all 986 achievements, completing 5906 quests and /hugging 11 players. Insert joke here. There are many.
How can you kill that which has no life??
Build a man a fire, he's warm for one night. Set him on fire, and he's warm for the rest of his life.
Something I can tell my kid that won't get a "meh". Cool.
The cost of that cleanup, of course, will be borne by taxpayers, not industry.
Yeah, he better have the Sword of a 1000 Truths.

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

So he's only done this with one race/class combo. What a n00b!
So, wait. He's got 165/164 achievements in PvP and 138/139 World Event achievements? Hmmm... He doesn't have "BB King" from Winter Veil. Pwned already by upcoming events!
I know someone that finished reading the Internet.
High Five brother. I beat a 2.5 year long WoWcrack addiction myself years ago. I still remember it like it was yesterday. Those long, back-knotted nights of failed Stratholme runs and epic fails. Noobs causing my blood pressure to rise exponentially in the Arathi Highlands....The cold chills of the 4 AM morning air nipping at my underwear-shod body, the only thing driving my spirit was the pipe dream of epic loots and bragging rights in Ironforge. Before Illidan. Before Arthas. Back when you knew how dedicated a WoW player was based on how high their fishing skill was....
*shudder*
I was one of the few ones lucky enough to turn away from that hell with my life still intact. I feel a bond with others I meet that were able to do the same. Stand strong my friend...relapse is easy.

Kinda like slashdot mod points ;-)

Hah! There you slipped! You're talking about the fishing contests in WoW!
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
William Shatner: You know, before I answer any more questions there's something I wanted to say. Having received all your letters over the years, and I've spoken to many of you, and some of you have traveled... y'know... hundreds of miles to be here, I'd just like to say... GET A LIFE, will you people? I mean, for crying out loud, it's just a TV show! I mean, look at you, look at the way you're dressed! You've turned an enjoyable little job, that I did as a lark for a few years, into a COLOSSAL WASTE OF TIME!
[ a crowd of shocked and dismayed Trekkies.... ]
I mean, how old are you people? What have you done with yourselves?
[ to "Ears" ] You, you must be almost 30... have you ever kissed a girl?
[ "Ears" hangs his head ]
I didn't think so! There's a whole world out there! When I was your age, I didn't watch television! I LIVED! So... move out of your parent's basements! And get your own apartments and GROW THE HELL UP! I mean, it's just a TV show dammit, IT'S JUST A TV SHOW!
Taiwanese man inspires Christians around the world with his story of how he committed his life to abstinence.

What does homosexuality have to do with it?
Nothing at all. But when Taco said "No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame." it had nothing to do with being crippled. Oh wait...
Set your phasers on "funky"!
I'm quite sure that WoW isn't the only thing he's beating regularly.
I don't understand the appeal of doing so many things over and over again.
You've never masturbated, have you?
I've abandoned my search for truth; now I'm just looking for some useful delusions.
Me too. (by "real life", you mean posting on Slashdot, right?)
I think a better title for this article would be "World of Warcraft Beats Man".
