Star Hill. Why do you ask?
I know about M&L Super Star Saga, I've mentioned them before, and when th ending credits for it came up and the rights things for Geno, most probably thought, who's Geno? And again I'll say this, Shantae is more recongised then Geno, because her games made it over here on their original release dates. So effectively Shantae is more recognisable to the general gaming public, then Geno, since her original game made it worldwide, and Geno's didn't.
I can continue but people wants us people to stop about this.

That's awful. People need to stop being jerks. Also this isn't the first time ZeRo has leaked someones information (he did the exact same thing with M2k)....he really should know better.

Alpharad might quite youtube now because of this. He's taking a break until people stop harassing him.
That sucks dude is my 2nd favorite youtuber.Hope this all blows over
Damn it Zero, you sadden me He really needs to be taken down a notch...
Will in Zero denfensive M2K did the exact same thing with Mang0 a few monthes back plus this was an accident and he has said he was sorry multiple times(if alpha twitter is anything to go by) and seems for down about(if his streamers are being honest)

Events like this make me so paranoid about my own identity and getting doxxed. I'm not that famous, but I definitely have a reputation in the Smash community. Again, not that famous so the event would likely get overblown quickly. But still.

People need to chill out and realize that prank calling is only funny if 1. That person knows you 2. If it's done in extreme moderation. And I mean extreme. What's happening to Alpharad isn't funny. It's harrasment.

I got prank called once in the middle of the night and I got so pissed because I didn't know who it was. It comes off a much more mean spirited if you never know who did it.

Can you imagine someone knocking on your door 18 times an hour? Yup, it's annoying.

If someone doesn't know your name and it's not for business don't call them.

I know you guys aren't doing it, just annoys me to see it happen.

Alpharad's channel just went back up. Not sure why he decided to do this so early, but there ya go.

Segata Sanshiro would be broken in a fighting game.

All he has to do is throw you and you explode.

Where's my sequel Sega?
View attachment 68056
But Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing Transformed is the sequel :troll:

Also you don't need the sequel to have a sequel, or do you want Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing series to end up with a timeline as messy and convoluted as the Zelda timeline.

can't believe I'm only now making a rather small indirect reference to James Rolfe a.k.a The Angry Video Game Nerd.

Even so, Zero really has no life if he finds enjoyment in this. He or M2k for the matter, shouldn't have done this to begin with. It's childish and pointless. Plus most of these smash players aren't on the type of level where I'd say this is ok, and why does Zero have all their numbers? And apologing doesn't change anything, he just screwed an innocent person's life up temporarily because of a stupid prank. They need to grow up if this is "entertaining", especially on a stream. What did Zero think would happen if someone didn't answer? That is straight up stupidity on his part.( no offense)

Why did people harass him? Aren't they supposed to be fans? More proof humanity is dumb as ****

It is literally ZeRo's fault. People praise him like a god, well, this time he's not one.
ZeRo literally gets hate almost all the time, I remember he had something to say at E3 2014 but said 'nah, you wou'ldn't like it' and this year he promised to play Melee at EVO, not to mention when this site had an article where ZeRo gets mentioned, everyone says he sucks for whatever reason

I see people constantly saying how it's okay that he's being mean, he gets the privilege cause he's the best. I also see people saying he's never at fault. Exaggerating, but, yeah.

I've never seen people say ZeRo was in the right for this, but saw people telling him to shut up, stop playing, get rid of the scarf, etc. Point is that ZeRo's always got lots of flak

Here's the funny thing about ZeRo/M2k or any person in the public eye.

They're still human beings. They make mistakes. They do dumb things. They say dumb things.

Just like those of us not in the public eye in any way.

Now imagine you in the situation or someone you love?

Would you want what's happening to still happen in that scenario? Would you want the reactions? Would you want the negativity?

Alpharad is a human being also. Why are we patting ZeRo on the back and not helping Alpha?

It was a legitimate accident. Yes, ZeRo probably should have just hung up the phone when the voicemail came on, but it's not like he has something personal against Alpharad. Blame the trolls who thought it would be funny to harass him for no reason.

I blame the trolls, but I also blame ZeRo. It was an accident, yes, but he is still responsible for what happened, even if it is an accident.

First of all, Alpha said he's fine for now, the 'fans' stopped after Alpha threatened to quit youtube. Zero was bummed for quite a bit of the stream and kept apologizing to Alpha. I may respect ZeRo most of the time, but I think we should have known better. In fact, check Alpha's twitter, loads of people sympathizing. You always overreact to stuff like this

"You always overreact to stuff like this" Wow, okay, thanks, jackass. Huh, I really overreacted to SOMEONE GETTING DOXXED, right? You always trash me like this, if you're gonna take little jabs like that.

Here's my 2 cents.

ZeRo is to blame for letting his phone number slip and he shouldn't have done that and now Alpha is getting troll calls to his family for no reason because trolls

And people pranking calling Alpharad's family has the majority blame and really wasn't necessary. At the end of the day, ZeRo owns Alapharad an apology for letting this explode when it shouldn't and just be the bigger man.

Just because you won 41 straight sets and haven't lose a major doesn't give you immunity of being a damn idiot.

I'm sure ZeRo has personally apologized to Alpha. I'm sure he realizes his actions were at fault, but at the same time a mistake is a mistake is a mistake.

It's not like he was malicious in his faults. He doesn't deserve **** for a simple human mistake.

Nor did Alpha deserve what happened to him.

I don't consider it 100% ZeRo's fault as it was an accident. However....

He needs to act more responsible. If this was the first time it happened, then I wouldn't blame him so much. Mistakes happened. But he also did the same thing with with M2K (literally, the same thing. Attempting to prank call him and he got his voice mail). He should have known better....plus it's prank calling. I don't get the appeal if you are over the age of 9.

Frankly, I just think he needs to act a little more mature, especially if hes going to be the leader of the Smash 4 community. When he came to Japan for the NicoNico tournament... he was talking about hooking up with Japanese chicks on Twitter. Way to represent the English Smash community. It's not just him...a lot of the hardcore players are like that. If you want to be a professional please act like one.

This is why you never have your number on your voice mail box. I mean granted it's not common that something bad is going to happen from it, but still, this is why you ditch any sort of automated voice mail or voice mail message that has your number attached.

Whenever there's something you do like, YOU trash it. Hell, when I argued people might not want 3 different characters with Mario in their name, you got angry. I didn't try to offend you put you always do this, you claimed everyone's patting ZeRo on the back. Almost everyone agrees he should have known better

Harassment doesn't necessarily mean just someone who's bullying you, it could still be someone who is way to overexcited and crosses the line they shouldn't.

Whenever there's something I don't like, I trash it? Oh, so it's just me now, right? WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS THREAD DOES IT? I don't even recall getting angry, and if I did, then it was for an entirely different reason then you'd expect. Figures, as you always assume everything about me.

"I don't try to offend you" You literally just told me I constantly overreact. You were trying to offend me.

Hindsight is 20/20. I'm sure 90% of the people haven't changed their voice mail box. It shouldn't matter that Alph is a web-celebrity. It's personal information that should have never been leaked.

@ Luigi The President Luigi The President , @ Cutie Gwen Cutie Gwen both of you guys calm down. If this continues to escalate I will hand out warnings.

Why am I always the one that's faulted for this BS between me and Ryuga? It sounds childish, but Ryuga started it. But sure, I'll try and calm down.

I'm not faulting anyone or "picking a side". I'm just telling both of you to stop arguing.

Smash players are immature in general.

Trust me, most of the Gods of Melee sans Armada and PPMD do stupid crap alot and some of the lesser known players as well (remember evidence.zip)

I shouldn't ever condone doing stupid stuff and acting like you're okay about because you're good at a party fighter.

We trash people for the FGC doing that stuff and Smash shouldn't be an exception. This is damn reason we're never respected as a community but it's okay since we play Smash right.

I actually applaud Nintendo ignoring us for so long because I can see why they don't want to be tied to Smash community

There's your problem Push, it seems a lot of the Professional Smash community still act like children and sometimes it seems that some of them think they are. You just need to see how some Smash fans react to someone saying I like Brawl over Melee, and then them getting mocked for it. Also you just need to remember the time, I believe it was APEX, the audience started booing Smash 4, just cause it wasn't Melee
