I've been playing CF for several years (on and off, of course).  Hmm..I started roughly 4 years ago...liked it, had my gf roll up a paladin for the hell of it (she sat in the guild chatting...bitch ;) ).  I had an elven ranger named Durin.  No biggie...he never made it quite past 26 I think. 
And, of course, this was all 2nd age I think.. 
But then I began thinking about it, and you know what?  All this time on CF and I've never once heroed a character.  SOMETHING always gets in the way..usually school or failing interest in spending 8 hours a day in front of a computer.  Oh no, I'd much rather spend 14 hours a day in front of a computer...ah but that's a different story. 
I just came to this non-hero realization and it was pretty depressing in a cf kind of way.  Geez...I've got to achieve hero with at least one character before this semester is finished... 
*growl* 
emote goes back to work...gee whiz, almost done with my typical 14 hour school/workday...
