Awesome, Scoob!!
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
Haha, way to go, man! 
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
Thanks all. And DB, I'm at about 1.4 bil on that character alone. Soon I will be Ebil, if you know what I mean. 
So at the risk of replying to my own reply, Professor Aether:
Used to be Dr. Aether. But then the game started to act wonky when he was about 20/22. I'd get these issues where I was constantly rubberbanding. Not a lot, but constantly. Sort of a 4 steps forward, one step back kind of thing. At the time many DXDiags and various other diagnostics were run. I was in pretty regular touch with tech support. I think it was around I6 or so, but that is the past and an old guy like me doesn't remember too well.
It wasn't my computer and using an early version of Wireshark and other traceroute proggies didn't show anything either. My point was that it was on the server end. No joy was found. I logged off and let my account lapse for about 6 months.
I came back and checked. Several names that I had on alts were gone. Thus Dr. Aether became Professor Aether. But I cared not.
Eventually I Purchased the Good and Evil box and started playing redside. Everyone said that stalkers sucked, so I made a claws/regen stalker then a bots/bubble MM.
I kept going back to the new Professor. I liked the idea of a fire/ice guy.
Long story short, my claws/regen got to 46 while my fire/ice languished in the blue.
Then the altitis hit me. Like I said, 60 alts now. And I play 50% of them every game session for a bit.
Finally I decided to go back to the Professor and play him the way he deserved. I never grouped with him back in the day and so he became my solo guy.
And here we are today. Now he melts groups and kills bosses. He has enough single NPC holds to shut down a boss or occasionally a GM (with lots of purples) to make me proud.
Here's to you Prof. Aether! Thanks for the ride! 
BTW, he will RP if it calls for it. His father is Alois Aether. A mage of some repute. His mother is a mutant. Her name is Felina Ocultos.
They are well to do, but not wealthy. He doesn't need their money, having made his own selling relics and other things at Wentworths. He normally would rather be enjoying himself at a party or the opera. But he also understands that the good of the many outweigh his personal revelry. Usually.
Most recently he was teaching Applied Thaumaturgy. Now retired, he fights the good fight. And drinks the good stuff (usually in Steel Canyon).
Congratulations on your first 50!

Grats Scooby!
Don't say I'm out of touch with this rampant chaos your reality
Evilly Yours, Fey Bot/Trap MM
((Grats! ))
Grats.
"Looks like we arrived in the nick of time. What does that make us?"
"Big damn heroes, sir."
"Ain't we just."

Is 'grats' all anyone can say? Well, if no one else will say it, I will!
Scooby, there's only one way to top yourself: Go do the Incarnate arc solo, get yourself an Alpha slot enhancement and keep getting stronger. Excelsior! ;p
But seriously, you're great. Don't let go of that feeling of accomplishment.
(I hit level 50 less than two weeks ago. I'm still giddy.)
Hey congrats Scooby Dooby
Heroes : Angrem (50 Stone tank), Exo Inferis (50 Fire blaster), Exo Proteus (50 ill/emp), IceVengance (50 cold defender)
Villains : AtomBomb (50 Rad/Kin corruptor), Aleks (50 SS/Inv brute), StoneLethal (50 EM/Stone brute), Davroz (50 Bots/Dark mastermind)
I got my first fifty a few months ago and I've been playing for 31 months or so. Altitis and RPing gets in the way like crazy!
I hope to get enough time tonight and tomorrow to get another 50, but it's a long shot.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
gives the dog a bone ..Good job
as Ood Sigma said....We will sing to you, Doctor. The universe will sing you to your sleep. This song is ending. But the story never ends.
Yes. After over six years and 60 alts I finally have a 50! My second ever bluseside char, Professor Aether fire/ice/fire blaster. Soloed all the way. Time to crack a few beers and get my first redside char, a claws/regen/soul stalker from 46 to 50.
Gotta love double XP weekends!
