And a few others like them (the usual suspects), have all done deeds worthy of the terms legendary both iname and out, on more than one occasion. Thats what makes them legends, not just one hit wonders. As tekki points out, you cant compare todays people with people of the past, for instance, Esker Joined Omega when they where the pinnicle of sgws, screwed them over, then spent 6 months scrapping with them. Semper has not done anything like that, although he lists a few achievements, they just arnt on that scale, he has not personally offended the leader of the games only superpower and then spent the rest of his career fighting them and his alliance, while maintaining his own power and pretecting a small alliance (in eskers case the SLA). As has been mentioned, don't compare them, it wont work, the hero's and villians of now rarely live up to the expectations of the past.
Buck - Thought it was about time someone who knows a little something said something worth saying.
Why do you say lith???? As long as ive been playing Ive never heard about him doing anything, unlike most players and former players being mentioned here.
