While I don't know Fester personally, I know of him in AH, and TBH it's not just Fester as there are probably others. For me the stars are sort of neat, but I look at them in a different way. They are neat as I unknowingly accomplish them. If Fester enjoys accomplishing them, then that's his deal, I don't e respect him more or less because he has stars by his name.
Personally I'd like to see all the achievements limited to each arena, and I think a lot of Festers proposed changes are logical, but I do have one question for Fester or any other achiever, if HTC said achievements were limited to areans and achievements would then be reset to the arena where it occurred, or how it occurred (example 1000 Aireral kills vs 1000 kill in country X plane), would you be upset or continue to pursue 1000 bailouts or crashed airplanes or whatever.
Just my .02 Good luck with all your achievements to all who shoot for the stars.
