Thanks for being awesome Cuppa! */e fan adulation* You'll be remembered. 
Cuppa slapped me once at a party! *proud*
Best Mod Ever, and now she's leaving us.
I really can't imagine the forums without CuppaJo.
Seriously, I just can't.
All I can say is, there had better be some packed leaving parties at the D.
(and make her official City Representative, dammit)

It is my sad duty to inform everyone that August will be my last month with City of Heroes and City of Villains.
I am taking over community management of Tabula Rasa full-time as of Sept. 1st. Cricket will be your primary community person when Sept. 1 rolls around and I will no longer accept PMs as of that date.
I just wanted to take a second and thank everyone for all their support and kind words over the last two years. Even in the darkest hours I could always count on there being a few bright posts, emails or PMs in my inbox. These kept me going more than coffee ever could and they always brought a smile to my face.
I also want to thank everyone who has ever created well thought out, constructive post/PM. I know bugs or other game issues can be frustrating at times, but a community person's best friend is the player who takes that little extra step to research and document their issue while keeping it about the issue, and not about Statesman's momma.
Special thank you's to all the staff both here at NCsoft and at Cryptic for all your hard work, for answering questions and for listening to community concerns. Staff may not always agree - but they [u]always[u] listen.
Finally, thanks to you - the community. This has been a great community to work for and be a part of for the last two years and it's very hard leaving such a wonderful group of people. You are so intelligent, passionate, creative, funny and charming that it amazes me every day. And despite how it may appear on the surface sometimes - you all care for each other deeply and are always ready to lend a helping hand to those less fortunate. You are true heroes and there is no Paragon City without you. It has been my honor to serve you.

I hope you'll still pop in on us now and again Cuppa <;.;> you've been one of the coolest community people I've ever dealt with, heck, THE coolest, and I've been playing MMOs since EQs Kunark expansion Ie: quite awhile.
I'm sure I'll have more words to add later but... wow... <_ _> tis a bleak day.
*salute*
Never surrender! Never give up!

well, there is one:
http://boards.playtr.com/ubbthreads.php?Cat=0
but it looks like a locked down beta board (and only 13 registered users) -- maybe it'll open up on Sept 1 and that's why NCSoft is transferring CuppaJo?
Anyway... sadness.... I will miss CuppaJo.
You'll be missed, Cuppa. Sure, you were diligent and fair, and nobody can ask for more from a forum mod. But you went way beyond that...you were our friend, and we as a community will always love ya for it. Forum mods on other games would benefit from watching how you handle forum users.
Good luck with TR!
*pours a cup of java on the ground*
This is for the friends that will be missed.
Going to miss you around these parts but I wish you nothing but the best for your new role.
ACK! Damn you TabRasa!
WE MUST DESTROY IT!
Cricket I hope your ready.. that's one big set of shoes to fill.. although they look like Ronald McDonald could fill them 
Cuppa can't wait to see Tabula get running it looks like it'll be a ton of fun and having you there will only improve that chance.

That pretty much sums up what I wanted to say, but failed to articulate.

... how about we start up the CuppaClones again for the rest of the month... as a show of support and respect to our beloved rep.
The end of one story always marks the beginning of another...
Dang. I'm actually depressed over this. My wife and I are both huge Cricket fans, and I'm sure she'll have no problems stepping up to the plate, but dang.
Well, I was thinking of giving TR a chance anyway...
I hold Cricket in high regard, and I'm sure she'll be a worthy successor...but never a replacement.
Good luck at TR, Cuppa. Now that I know it'll be a classy joint, I believe I'll give it a try myself.

Well poot.
Thank you for everything and make sure they're paying you what you're worth or tell them to be ready for the wrath of the CuppaClones.

Ah well, good luck at your new home Cuppa. You'll be missed.
RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!

You will be missed very much Cuppa. Don't be a stranger...

The TR community is now lucky indeed.
Well... I guess theres another MMO I have to try just because Cuppa is such a great community coordinator. Well miss ya Cuppa, good luck and have fun at your new position. Like the other posters said - don't forget about us over here in Paragon. Cricket is a good rep too, so we won't be getting shortchanged - but it will not be the same
I guess now I have an excuse to be extremely sarcastic on the boards :P
