Twelve Months and a Call to Community Leaders!

Please use this thread to discuss the below post:


I remember this time last year fondly. I was starting a new job at NCsoft, getting re-acquainted with the Bay Area and also getting the opportunity to interact with you all, the players of City of Heroes. Looking back over the last 12 months, the game has gone through a ton of great changes. We’ve had three great Issues and are on the cusp of our 4th, Issue 11: A Stitch In Time.

As I look ahead for the next year, knowing what I have the privilege to know, I can’t be more excited for the future of City of Heroes and City of Villains. The Development Team has many great plans and ideas to implement and I’m very proud to be part that endeavor!

One thing I’ve wanted to do since the very beginning, but haven’t, has been to get better acquainted with the movers and shakers of the CoH community. Oh, sure, in the course of my day to day, I have interacted with some of you. However, I haven’t really opened up communication to everyone who plays a larger role in the CoH Community. The major Supergroup leaders, popular chat channel moderators, the Hamidon raid organizers, fan web site operators, player event organizers and those who log in everyday and contribute to the City of Heroes and City of Villains Community in major ways.

While I can’t interact one on one with everyone who plays the game, I do want to hear from the above people. If you feel you fit into any of those categories, and even if you think "well, ok maybe," do me a favor and follow this link and send me a Private Message with a quick introduction. I’m looking forward to hear from you!

In closing, I hope everyone is having a great Halloween! Also, know that you have my thanks for making me enjoy coming to work over the last year!

For a while there I was thinking he was giving us a resignation letter, or I am I was too tired to interpret it the right way.

Has it been a year already? *sigh* How the time flies by. It seems like just yesterday we were all decrying DOOM from the highest towers that Cuppa was leaving and some new person called Lighthouse had moved in to take her place. >_> Time needs to move slower, it's too quick gosh dang it!

Well, happy aniversary Lighthouse.

Does that mean those younger than teenage should beware or those older than teenage should beware?

Happy anniversary!

Whatever happened to the good old fashioned duckroll? Do you people even know where (and how, my god, HOW?!) the Rickroll came about? Sure, it's made its way into various other message boards and chatrooms, but it was only yesterday that I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said you're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-aire.

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the license plate said 'Fresh' and had dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare, bu I thought now forget it, yo, Homes, to Bel-aire!

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby yo, Homie, smell you later. I looked at my kingdom-- I was finally there to settle my throne as the Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire.

Maybe last night's earthquake was nature's way of saying "welcome back, LH."

Are you looking for any specific info from the "Community Leaders"?

Or just something like:

Hello.
My name is Community Leader
I like Pina Coladas and getting lost in the rain.

Nah, I think it was more of nature's way of saying "Dude, you're living on a faultline, you would be much better off moving your profitable gaming business to the Kansas City suberbs."

Yeah I'm wondering that too, LH

If ya want a "community" ..well RO is a very large community indeed, however picking 1 "community leader" would be very difficult. ...and you'd get 12 different candidates depending on what issues/events were brought up. Its also a community that largely began to avoid these forums for most of this year, probably for the same basic reasons that most of the Cryptic devs have always avoided it. Hope that won't be an issue tho and that *someone* can be appointed from it to help you out here.

All that shaking is good for making you bite your tongue! (Ahh, so that's how suburb is spelled - knew it looked funny.)

Come on, you Californians and Texans get all the fun stuff and about all we got is AMC movie theatres. Didn't you pay attention when Sesami Streat was on? Share already!! California owes us for that whole Disney thing anyway.

Gratz!

A year already? I'm glad you survived the chaotic world that Co* can be and emerged from the other side better, faster, stronger, a man barely alive, but what a man.

Out of interest has your costume got any more decorative over that time?
