| | Biography = Astonish joined Hack Forums late January 2011 in order to obtain a shell booter with some of his GameBattles partners. After purchasing Atomic Booter, he left the forum with his goal achieved. During mid-March he realized the potential Hack Forums had to offer and started to post on a more frequent basis, until eventually he joined several groups on HF. After joining and leaving others, he began to form ideas of purchasing his own group.
| |
| | |
| At the start of May, he considered the possibility more and more--that he could have his own user group to own and run. He made contact with [[Hуѕтєяιa X™]] about his idea to start a coding user group, but was told to talk to [[xerotic]], one of the main coders on the site and a staff member at that time.
| |
| | |
| After almost two months of planning and preparation, Astonish went to Western Union and sent [[Omniscient]] the required money. On June 22, Reverence was formed. Shortly after buying the group and having a lot of feedback, he was awarded several unique awards shortly after, such as the [[Dog Lover]] on July 3, the [[Fish Err Man]] on July 16 and the [[Cool]] award on August 2.
| |
| | |
| Although Reverence was the first fully-paid [[:Category:Group|usergroup]] on Hack Forums, the group had begun to become inactive over time leading to the inevitable time where a drastic change had to be made. On February 14, 2012 Reverence was officially changed to Respawn--a purely gaming group and becoming the first paid group to being about gaming, after The Gamers was disbanded.
| |
| | |
| After an incredibly successful first recruitment, he was granted [[The Protector]] award on February 24 and shortly after was promoted to Mentor position.
| |
| | |
| On August 6, he was awarded the [[MOTM |Member of the Month (MOTM)]] award. Around mid-August, he was demoted from the Mentor position, for being staff on another site that Omniscient did not approve of.
| |
| On January 1, 2013 he was awarded the [[FPS Gawd]] award.
| |
| | |
| On April 28th, 2013, Respawn was changed to the usergroup [[Innovation]].
| |
| | |
| On May 9th, he asked for several of his awards to be revoked and was re-granted Mentor status.
| |
| | |
| On January 8th, 2015, Astonish sold his group to [[Arrow]] for an undisclosed sum. After the transfer of his group, his account was closed upon request.
