  1. Saint's trying to get the game reinstalled for tonight, hopefully he'll get it working.
  2. Well, Saint got really, really angry with the announcement and totally uninstalled everything NCSoft that day... soooo, he'll be there in spirit only. I was angry too, but decided to wait to uninstall, just in case. It's not like I need the room on my harddrive or anything.

  3. Remember me?
    Sign me up because Doc said so and I miss you guys.
    Hopefully the game still works on my 'puter.

    P.S. Bringing Blade - Plan A & B.
  4. Wow, haven't looked at this forum in weeks, glad I did today or I would've missed this.

    Doc, you became one of my closest in-game friends over the year we played together. I had a whole lotta fun blaming Doc for my screwups, the good natured bantering and mostly the fun. We've got you friended on FB, so we can keep up. Take care, keep in touch, and hopefully we can join up in some other game.

    I will still have my memories of the dog when it was more amenable, but my attitude toward it will be driven by current behavior, not nostalgia.

    The past is gone, and NCSoft are presently destroying my online home.

    If they want my good opinion they must radically revise their current behavior.
    Hmmm, so you're saying NCSoft has a case of rabies? Sounds about right.

    I like that analogy and everything else you stated.

    I only hope the dog can be cured and not put down. Dang.

    Tony, thank you for spearheading this, we need a leader, I'm happy you were hero enough to step up
  6. Just to let you know, we won't be there. As much as it pains me, I can't bring myself to login again. My heart hurts. I will miss you all, so will Saint, even if he doesn't show it.

    PM me if you want to keep in touch. I will be checking the boards while they're up for any updates and contact info.

    AB
  7. I have no issue with anything you're saying except for one thing: I'm not quitting. They are closing the game down, so they are "quitting me". I've signed the petitions and sent extra notices to NCSoft about my feelings on this matter.

    It boils down to the fact that I just don't have the heart to login and see everthing we've - the heroes and villains - built knowing WHEN it's going away. I could see this coming several years ago, even took a hiatus, but after the seeming success of Freedom and all the good things happening, this has blindsided me. I was VIP through all of Freedom. If they reverse this, I'll be back. Given the super secret way this came about, I doubt that it will. So I'm moving on in the only way I know how too.
  8. Due to today's absolutely, out-of-nowhere, beyond stunning announcement, Saint and I have decided to end our run with City. No long good-byes, no last hurrahs. We met on this game seven years ago and have now been married over five. City will always have a special place in our hearts and memories.

    We want to thank everyone on Infinity that we've teamed with this past year for you are truly what made this server our home. To our Tuesday night group led by Gate-keeper, you guys and gals were family. Also, thanks to IronBlade for leading so many Saturday's TF and other stuff. Thanks to Ellscry and Sunny for so many Mo iTrial runs these past few months. There are so many more of you that made City a unique MMO that will not be duplicated.

    Feel free to PM me if you want to keep in touch and maybe find another City to roam and beat up bad guys.

    Best Wishes and Thanks.

    To all of you...

    Thanks for everything and all of your hard work Paragon, I have truly enjoyed my time over the last 8 years in the City... but I have had an absolute blast this last year with the new content and things you were giving us. I am in shock over this announcement. It is akin to a death in the family.

    Zwillinger, you have been an outstanding community manager. Thanks to you and your team for all you've done to put up with us. This community can be hard to live with at times, but it's all for the love of this great game, on our part and yours.

    Kudos to the devs and a big THANK YOU for giving us a home away from home, where the sky was always the limit. I am greatful to you all.

    Smooth sailing Paragon, you will be missed.
  10. Saint says he wants in so:

    Saint Jon - Hawaiian Glory (staff/wp brute)
  11. We'll be there:

    @Asgardian Blade: Greyson Grey (dark/dark defender)
    @Saint Jon: Water Park (water/time corrupter)
  12. At this point, I'm not signing Saint up, I'll post when I find out if he plans on being awake.

    @Asgardian Blade: Count DarkFire (fire/dark corrupter) or Jaden Maldoran (StJ/Elec scrapper)

    Looking forward to your return, we miss you!
  14. Not for sure who we're bringing, but sign us up:

    Asgardian Blade - probably Count DarkFire (fire/dark corrupter), maybe my warshade
    Saint Jon - no idea
  15. Bringing:

    Asgardian Blade - Skadi Jotunn (Water/Ice blaster)
    Saint Jon - Water Park (Water/Time corrupter)

    ...or we could change up and bring something else

    Just in Case

    Mucho Gratz on the house Ells! 'Nuff time away, come back NAAOOO! Unless the wife says otherwise of course.
  17. Oi, that's not fun. Yes, let your men continue to spoil you, and come back when you can. Borrow some of Ells' meds, those can be wonder drugs when taken as prescribed.
  18. We miss you, Angelica, get well/better/recover soon.
  19. Saint has been sick all week, so won't make it.
  20. Asgardian Blade - Count DarkFire (fire/dark corrupter)
    Saint Jon - most likely Saint Jon (fire/fire blaster)
  21. Not sure who either of us will bring but sign us up!

    Asgardian Blade: probably my water/ice blaster or dark/dark defender
    Saint Jon: sumthin'

    I did think about mentioning that, but Arcana is the only one who has ever attained that rank and probably ever will. I'm not sure the rest of the masses even understand what's involved in attaining that rank. Let's see: 2,400 superpacks in beta? , numbers that boggle the mind (well mine anyway), constant input to the devs, plus getting into some really great forum debates (nods to her fellow debaters), {other stuffs}.

    Kudos, Arcana, on the rank of Arcanaville.

    So Angelica, you now have a goal. Good luck.

    When Angelica was wondering when she would stop being a noo.. I mean rookie, I went to Google and searched:
    site:cityofheroes.com forum titles

    Now, the first few links were discussing the new colored titles. But the fifth link yielded the following:
    0 Citizen
    25 Informant
    50 Recruit
    100 Trainee
    200 Rookie
    400 Cohort
    700 Super-Powered
    1200 Mentor
    1600 Legend
    5000 Renowned
    10000 Forum Cartel
    20000 Cuppa Incarnate

    I don't think this list is accurate any longer. I am a lowly apprentice and I don't see that listed anywhere. Also, I think I read somewhere that Cuppa Incarnate has been, ummm, discontinued.
  24. Should be able to make it:

    Asgardian Blade: Kyrybdys (rad/dp defender)
    Saint Jon: Saint Jon (fire/fire blaster)
  25. Asgardian Blade: Count DarkFire (fire/dark corrupter)
    Saint Jon: Saint Jon (fire/fire blaster)
