Kinslayer Has Left The Building

Well, after playing way back in Beta, my time in CoH is at an end.

There's various reasons for leaving as wide ranging as the complete lack of content once you hit 50 and the new issue once more doesn't seem to address that and the fact there's simply nothing else for me to do in game.

The main reason though is that the community is not what it once was with too much elitism creeping in and when you've run through all the content several times, that's what keeps you in the game. With so many of those people I played the game with early on moving to pastures new, it has become a bit lonely recently so definitely time to throw in the towel.

Thanks to those who joined one of the original SG's within days of launch in the form of New Blood Rebellion and made it such a fun and respected SG before it got cruelly abandoned by me when CoV launched . Thanks even more to those who formed Bloodline on CoV and made it so well known. Thanks to most of those in LLOD who made the global channel I set up worth the effort. Thanks to EVIL for taking me in when I was SG'less and making the game fun again for me. Thanks to the 1 AT guys for letting me spam their forum so much

My subs run out on the 24th October so i'm sure i'll pop on once or twice and will try to arrange something with those of you I played with before I leave. Other than that, a mention to the people I met in game and had good times with:

Fireblazer/Dark Merchant
Scar Tissue
Max Powerz
Double
Mabutu(The one guy who always made me chuckle to myself!)
Ragnarak
BL
Chimmy
Gabriel Kane
Smelly Pants
Pob

I'm sure there are some I've missed nad the list would be much longer if so many hadn't left already but I'm sure you know who you all are

Like so many other's who've left, you can catch me in WoW on the Moonglade Server as Kinsul and part of the CoH guild over there.

Sorry to see you leave, I can understand things being lonely, its happened to me once before. Made some new friends and things picked up though.

Very sad you are departing. Those that know you will surely appreciate how much you have put into the game. CoV will defintely be a poorer place without you and im sure the EVIL crew will miss ya. It was great (if not short lived) having someone with the amount of experience you had serve us. I for one would have struggled with the Item of Power without ya and glad that we got to experience that chaos before you went.

Pretty sure you wont be back for abit as like you said there aint really anything coming which makes you think I want to experience that. I just hope you keep in touch and use our EVIL forum to keep in touch (like afew others are doing at the mo). You know there always be a space for you if you ever decide you fancy a quick WoW break.

I feel kind of the same with the feeling that the community is not what it once was. However I have put in touch much effort to see it go to waste. I think I carry on until someone pays me atleast £500 on ebay .

Anyway, its been a pleasure knowing and fighting against ya (gone through my emails and had forget I had to go against you in S4!). Things in the the game have gone down hill but hope when you think back it be mostly the good things you remember. You been here a long time and I will miss the days when I found myself having to disagree with every post you made. Take care and all the best, gonna miss ya!

P.S. Shotgun your hammi o's

There are no elite players!

Only people who are likeminded to eachother are people better to play with eachother and one may object to another unlikeminded persons style of play, sense of fun and attitude to the game and if that persons unpersuadable they can seek out people they would enjoy playing with.

I am sorry to see ya go, I hope ya find what ya looking for.

I have experienced similar sentiments feeling that no one else has actually bought the game to play a hero. I am like this "when the SAS plan to do a job do they plan to do it in a way that gets all of their people in and out with all of the hostages saved or do they just charge on in "hello everyone here i am" doing a rambo being shot at from every direction in the hope that somehow they manage to dodge all the bullets and despite not knowing whats coming next brushing of a team mates defeat as something that had to of happened". In short i like to play with a certain way of thinking teamplayers and not show off one man armies who compromise the rest of the team and objective, and yes i might be in the wrong game as a defeat is not a death or looking for a different kind of game really.

Have fun over in WoW, we're going to be running out of people who don't take any nonsense around here soon, so hopefully there'll be something to tempt you back in future.

See ya Kin, been a real pleasure being in the NBR and Bloodline with ya, and I can only guess at the amount of effort you've put into building the groups up.

I've hardly been on myself over the last three or four weeks as Villains seems to be pretty empty these days. I'll be getting Lucius to 50 (getting really good at soloing those EB Hero's!) and then will have to think about whether to stick with the game or not too.

Shame we didn't get a VG run at RSF before you went...

Take it easy fella, hope to see you in game before your subs run out.

Just got back from a meet in machester with some people from this game to hear this news.

Sorry to hear your going kin, you been a great leader/friend to me for over a year. You helped me alot when I first joined NBR and without you helping me not sure i would still be here myself.

Thanks for showing me how to organise TF's and alot of knowledge about the game.

Hope you run a final TF before you leave, would be proud to join it.

Yes, but elitism is a quicker way of saying that

Have fun kinslayer.

Although we have only teamed a little I'm sorry to see you (or any1) leave CoX.

Unfortunately I have to agree about I8 and once again the lack of new content for lvl 50 players. Going to have to find an SG member to ex me for the new content.

Hope you will be back for I9.

good luck in WoW.... say hi to everyone else

have to say, given everything you've done in game, I'd love to know who is being elitist to you ....

although if the PvPers (& others) go to the Americans and more go to wow, it is hard to see who is going to remain to be elitist to....

lol haha ok thats my way of saying what all elitests are at the end of the day aside from telling themselves that they are better than everyone else.

Sorry to see you go Kinslayer. We havent done a lot of playing together, and on these forums we've certainly had our disagreements, but at the end of the day I've had nothing but respect for you. Your PvP workshops were awesome. I rarely enjoyed PvP (I always sucked at it), but those PvP workshops actually made me feel like I was semi-decent. Even if I wasn't, they still gave me a lot of good fun, and that's what it's all about in the first place.
Hope to run into you again!
