  1. I'll never forget how much this has changed me.
  2. You were a legendary forumite. Never forget the community you helped lead.

    /em hug
  3. This event was full of bugs and poor, hastily done hacked together effects.

    100000/10. Perfect. Absolutely stunningly perfect. I couldn't wish for a better honor to us. We are the players, and we made the event. And it was perfect.

    I wish I could give you a hug, Arcana.

  7. I will give it a read. Seems promising.

    Thank you.

    /em hug
  8. Are you kidding?

    Lloyd was a boss.
  9. I was very happy to receive the swag as well. That HeroCon shirt will remind me of the awesome that was the meetup.

    Sorry, but when is the Beta event? Can I please get a date or time?
  11. I remember seeing you at the Unity Rally. I told you how much you meant to me.

    And then you joined SaveCoH, the global channel I made.

    I freaked out. I mean, I really freaked out. I jumped out of my chair and waved my arms around. I didn't know how to react. I mean, it was you! Dark_Respite herself! The famous and amazing videographer, the demorecord-fu master, the paragon of the CoH machinima genre! And you had decided to grace us with your presence!

    Samuraiko, you are my hero. Thank you so, so much for everything.

    We had it all, and you were a part of it.

    Thank you.
  12. /em applause

    Well said.

    We're all not ready, but we are all still here for you.

    We'll be here till the end.

    Hell, I was making bases for ERP SGs for a while. Building dungeons that would make a Drow blush... Good times... Good times.
    That reminds me... I once walked in on a SG mate of a former SG and his gal ERPing in the base. I had superspeeded into the crafting area, caught two lines of chat, made eye contact, then promptly ouro'd out while apologizing profusely via /tell.

    Not my finest moment.

    Killing isn't elegant or creative. It's not my style.

    When you made your post pouring your heart out, I did not post, I did not bother you. But you of all people, with your game addiction, and after that attention craving woe is me thread you psted, you should be the last one accusing anyone of feeling overly important. From your thread, as you said, you're the one who isnt even mature enough in the head to cope wit hrela life with a game, because your'e feel so powerless. Just as you came here I could of went there and told you to grow up but I didnt. But you come here and claim someone else is raining on a parade? LOL. Anyways, though, I guess maybe it's because I'm not some attention seeking need a game to get away because my life sucks that bad, when you probably have not a clue about hard times that you feel you want to attack me. You're just whining brat that looks for something to whine about with according to your thread that didnt even have a tough life but want everyone to feel sorry for you becuase you cant even cope with normality. Go talk to a starving person, or someone that is haveing it hard then see if your life is that bad. But you dont have the maturity to do that. No, to you, it's always me me me my life sucks why me. Get serious.


    Before you attack someone or even dare diss someone else, you first need to get your life straight, grow the hell up, seek a psychologist, then maybe then you'll realize that you might enjoy life more. Then after that, you'll have a leg to stand on that dont depend on a games like a crack addict to feel good.
    lol
  16. I find it cute how you convince yourself that you are important just because you enjoy raining on other people's parades.

    EDIT: I also find it cute how you have "-female player-" in your sig. You don't know how the Internet works, do you.
  17. I would read his fortune.

    Oh, what do you know? The Fool.

    Brilliantly said, Atlantea. I agree.

    As someone told the devs on August 31st, "You gave us a world in which we could fly. We can never thank you enough for that."

    If there is one group I trust to pull us through, it would be the Titan Network. 100%.

    We believe in you. Keep fighting.

    I have compared it before to knowing some police-squad [or something] is going to show up at my house at midnight on Nov. 30 and euthanize my cats in front of me - for no reason, and I cant stop it. My alts are like my pets, they are very close to my heart. I "raised" them. I spent money on then, and tried to treat them with respect and make sure they had the best of everything.

    And some faceless bunch of goons is taking them away from me. I feel no small level of anger, fear and sadness over it.

    I know soon the haterade crowd is going to show up with scorn aplenty for people with sensitive feelings; to feel sad over the death of one's alts is mentally unhealthy, and they're "going to make sure [we] know just how hopeless it is that we hope that our time and effort is saved, because that's [their] job: to destroy all hope. And btw you hopers are all mentally ill retards, hahahaha! Fools! PS NCSoft rulez!"

    Such people don't get to dictate my feelings, or yours. They don't get a vote. What is happening is a disaster - yes, a disaster - and we have a right to mourn, to hope, to fight for another world like Paragon in the future. One that will be run by people WITH HEARTS. Because fighting uphill battles is what paranormals do; heroes or villains, that's what they do. And what we had is worth fighting to get back again. I do think so.

    It is cold comfort indeed, but you are not alone GreatRock. Many, many others are feeling the same horror, fear - and lack of regret - as this terrible MMO dystopia draws near. We loved, and we lost.

    Maybe one day we will find a new City to love again.
    This. A million times this.

    I felt like Omi could tell. I always did the best for him. I got him a top-tier build, I got him purples. I found teams for iTrials to get him to +3. I got costume parts, all the badges I could. I did it all so that he would run smoothly for me.

    It felt like building an engine. All that work so that the finished product is as amazing as possible. I treated him right, and he knew.

    He kicked insane amounts of ***. All I could do was point him in the right direction, there was nothing needed in the combat area. I knew he could beat anything, and I knew he could only do that if I kept him strong and steady.

    The only comfort I can get out of all of this is knowing that we're all in it together. The citizens of Paragon are all united. We're all family. We're all close, and we are all grieving.
