Stardom

- STM

Stardom was originally called Terminator Cracking Force. Shortly after the release of Fearless, they changed their name to Stardom (see scrolltext of Fearless). Stardom used The shortest Way to the Power as their slogan.

Starsky and Kronos (called Hutch at that time) established Stardom in 1988. In Raaah-Lovely Starsky list more members, that are not identified yet: Cyclone, Wolf, Tarzan and Trash. However, these names are not mentioned in newer productions anymore.

Some time before the Crazy, Stardom and Future Concepts Party 1989, The Pasadena Duo and Musashi got kicked from Stardom (no reasons given). At the same time Venom and Soft-Virus joined (see Kicked Out).

The group dissolved in 1989. More details about this can found in The End. There, Ninja and Hitchhiker explain why Stardom disbanded after the Crazy, Stardom and Future Concepts Party in early August 1989: Their main leader Starsky left the scene (he lost interest and motivation, as Kronos explains on CSDb) so Stardom was left behind without fuckin' organisation. The tone of the whole message in The End implies that this was not a consensual decision in Stardom. Additional information on the split can be found in Wasted Time.

The final memberstatus of Stardom according to The End was: Starsky (Leader, Graphics), Hutch (Leader, Coder, Swapper), Comja (Swapper, Modemtrader), Zorlac (Swapper, Modemtrader), Softvirus (Swapper, Modemtrader), Protton (Graphics), Mirrorman (Coder) in Switzerland; Megatronic (Coder), Iron Pizza (Graphics, Music), Apostle (Cracker, Modemtrader), Venom (Music) in West Germany; Gravox (Coder, Swapper) in Australia; Hitchhiker (Coder), Scorpie (Graphics, Swapper), Kid (Graphics, Swapper), Fox (Swapper), Rocky (Swapper) and Ninja (Cracker, Swapper, Modemtrader) in Belgium.
Hitch jouned Future Concepts and Crazy. Starsky and Protton left the scene. Venom joined Vision. Apostle joined FBR Germany, Comja, Hitchhiker, Scorpie and Kid rebuilt Orion, together with some ex-Orion members.

Later on, Zorlac, Mirrorman (now Steve) and Softvirus formed the Swiss section of Ahead.
