Oh, and the Vs threads.

Oh, and was Durakken ever right?

OK, I'm only taking one class on Tuesday evenings this term, so I think I'll move the start time an hour earlier to 9pm Eastern for the duration.

If you're one of the regulars and this time change is inconvenient, please let me know as I'd rather go back to the original time and risk not getting new players than start an hour earlier and risk losing regulars.

Identity Crisis brought me here.

And when I say "here" I mean here, the forums, not the game.

I stopped reading comics for the most part 20 years ago (I could no longer stand how Crisis on Infinite Earths and John Byrne's Superman retcons were affecting my favorite title, the Legion of Super-Heroes). Since then I've mainly kept up with what's been happening comics-wise by surfing the net. And in the summer of 2004, while Identity Crisis was raging, I followed a series of links to the Comics and Hero/Villain Culture forum. And routinely dropped by to follow the threads discussing Identity Crisis, and then everything else.

I lurked on the forums for about two years before I actually started playing. The idea of paying a recurring $15 a month to play a game just didn't appeal to me at first. But then in June of 2006, my wife passed away and, boy, did I need to escape real life for a while. I picked Infinity because the word had a special meaning between me and her.

You may not have noticed me when I first began. I'm very much an introvert and did not actively seek out teams and usually said "no" if invited. Plus, this was my first (and so far only) mmo, so I preferred to figure everything out on my own. Not to mention, for those of you who may have noticed that my main's costume bears an slight resemblance to a certain LSH'er ... well, when I first began, the resemblance was a lot closer, so I tried to stay away from crowds so as not to get generic'd.

I still remember my first actual team. Just a duo, I had just progressed to Striga and got an invite from a toon named Miss Midnite. Don't remember her AT, but s/he and I spent the next few months or so with him/her stealthing to the end of a mish then s/he would TP me and we would bash in heads together. Good times.

I first began teaming on a regular basis with the regular Saturday afternoon TF crowd on Infinity. Thanks to Johnny Taxibot for beginning these (at least I think he did, apologies for the slight if it was anyone else) and thanks to MsCats and then Ironblade for continuing them.

Somehow I got the nerve to start up a complementary TF series on Tuesday nights. You just don't know how very unlike me it is to do something like that!

Some of you have already decided to move on, some of you have decided to stay for the duration, some of you don't know yet.

I don't think I'm quite ready to leave yet, but for those of you who are, thank you for being such a great part of the Infinity community. And for everyone else, if I don't get a chance to say goodbye in game, ditto.

I'm very glad that I chose Infinity as my home away from home in Paragon!

And a very special and heartfelt thank you, goodbye, best wishes and kind regards to: Doc, Angelica, AdAstra, IB, AB and St Jon, Ells, Belle and Tony, Gata, Ceph, Herc, Tiny and Errant, Herc and all the other great people I've teamed with on a regular basis!

Wow, met in game and married for five years, does it get any better than that?

I'll miss you two, AB and StJ! It's been a pleasure.

OK, sure I know I can, but is it legal? Allowable? Against this games eula? If yes, would it still be against this game's eula if this game is dead?
