I have so much to say to everyone in this community. I am so tired of crying, and I'm sure I will as I write this. I was 16 when I first met my husband, who some of you know as Whiteseeker, Cherokee, or Stitch Whitewolf. Two days after I met him in person, I went to his house. He told me he wanted to show me something. He said that he, his mother and step father played a game called City of heroes. He got on his character, Clee, and kicked some *** of Arachnos I think... Honestly when I first saw it, I though it was nerdy as hell, haha. About 2 weeks later, we were pretty much living together, and he told me to create a toon. So I did.. I made an electric blaster called Keekat. It was kind of a joke, but very quickly, I fell completely in love with my toons, the game, and the wonderful Devs and community. THe more I played, the more I loved everything about COX. Several months later, my father passed away on our kitchen floor from a severe heart attack. It was very hard for me to cope. As a birthday present, my father in law bought me my own account, and I concentrated on the game to cope with dealing with my fathers awful death. It helped me to move along. All of you were so compassionate, so caring. You all lifted my spirits. When I was 18, I became pregnant with my daughter. My husband Whiteseeker, Posted a lot on the forums. A lot of people followed us with my pregnancy. I gave birth to her May 14th, 2009.(the day before my husbands birthday!) The day after, He came to pick me up from the hospital, and since it was his birthday, he got the most wonderful gift. We were so worn out but he posted on the forums that I had a healthy beautiful baby girl, named Evelyn Elizabeth. As soon as he came in the hospital, he told me of all the people who were congratulating us, and there were many wonderful, kind comments. It made me tear up. Even some of the devs posted comments for us. Im sorry this is rambling on, but COH has been a big impact on my life. When I first found out it was being shut down, it hit me hard, but mostly I felt disbelief. Now its setting in, and I cry every time I play. I know this post makes like no sense, but my point is, I want to THANK YOU ALL!!!! The devs are wonderful, they have worked hard and done so well. COH is an amazing game- nothing else is like it. I will never play any other MMO. I am completely loyal. I dont remember the names on some of the people that were so kind, but anyone who has said kind comments to Keekat or to Whiteseeker, I thank you so much. It has been a wonderful 6 years for me. Once again Thank you ALL!!! That is all I have to say. God Bless to all of you. Thank you for giving me a city in which I could fly.
