    You.

    A Poem & Some

    Margaret, are you grieving
    Over Goldengrove unleaving?
    Leaves, like the things of man, you
    With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?
    Ah! as the heart grows older
    It will come to such sights colder
    By and by, nor spare a sigh
    Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie;
    And yet you wíll weep and know why.
    Now no matter, child, the name:
    Sorrow's springs are the same.
    Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed
    What héart héard of, ghóst guéssed:
    It is the blight man was born for,
    It is Margaret you mourn for.


    --Gerard Manley Hopkins

    On November 30 I'll be saying "Goodnight," in Mercy Island on my main, Voodoo Girl, near Kalinda.

    25 years to make.

    Then viciously cut down by the distribution company, redubbed and the original cels thrown away.

    Also, since so many animators worked on this over the year many elements showed up in Disney's Aladdin.

    I'm sure you'll see Jafar's inspiration almost immediately.

  6. Damn you and your knowledge of that film.

    I think what you mean is your computer couldn't handle the game (at that time)

    Actually, if I remember correctly, COH was decently bug-less on launch and the irony was that it become more addled the more it got updated.

    It's possible to be both, or many, since the concept of a person who wears many hats must elude you - like how Zwillinger was the community manager but also had to do some light programming.

    Community Manager + Programmer = More Than One Role

    I apologize that I had to explain this concept to you over the internet as I assumed it was something you would have learned on the path to higher education, but now it would seem you weren't on such a path.

    I hope you don't take umbrage with this.

    Damn those invisible pink unicorns - I've yet to spot one.

    How are you dealing with the green elephants on your walls?

But right now it's overwhelmingly obvious that the world-builders think of themselves as real-world gods (little g) and their definitions of CoH Community are the only one that matters.

    This close-mindedness wasn't in place with Cryptic but was in place with the most recent Dev team, the AE bigots and a few of the Cartel members. It's not surprising to see it becoming ingrained in Plan Z as well.
    Can you point to the posts or threads or comments that support this? I'll give you some time. When you can't come back with a quote or a link to support that I'll have some ice packs ready for your burn.

    It's the internet.

    Let it go.

    Breathe.

    Go read something, perhaps?

    At least it won't run by trolls

    Can you save *all* the community? No, you cannot.

    However, you can save a part of it.... but it will not be the same as the original though.

    It will never be the same community. It will be a new community born from the"death" of the original. You can choose to be a part of that or stand on the sidelines, commenting how it isn't like the original - and you'll miss out on being part of the foundations of that community.

    Your choice.
  18. The Community dies if the Community wishes to die. If the Community wishes to endure, it will.

    So for you, the community dies when the server shuts off. For others it will endure on the Titan Forums and with Plan Z.

    You must get that a lot then - not just on the internet but in real life.

    You have my sympathies.
