This is how we say goodbye... (with an 8 BILLION INF COSTUME CONTEST!)
Talk about going out with a Bang!
Can't say I'm glad that your leaving, always sad to see Vet's retire. I do understand your reasons though so...
Goodluck with all your future endeavors!
Maestro Mavius - Infinity
Capt. Biohazrd - PCSAR
Talsor Tech - Talsorian Guard
Keep Calm & Chive On!
Keep some stuff. Just in case!
Sad to see fellow Vets go but the reasons are sound. Good luck with everything!

You sure you want to do that?
Or is this suppossed to help you not return?
"Hey honey! We should play CoH again."
"Yeeeaaah. But we gave everything away and do we really want to get it all back?"
With that, if you're truely serious...what names do you both have, and will you be parting with any that I might want? ^_^

Hey...hey.
I want some of them cool names too :<

The BrandX Collection
We've given it all away before, BrandX. In fact, we did last time we left, and when we came back just before Going Rogue, we had nothing. What we're giving away on Saturday is what's left of what we've built in the last nine or so months, after we've put together some fun builds on characters we play and enjoy.
There are some names we will be parting with. There will be a couple 50s that end up getting deleted. We won't be deleting all of our characters, however, not because we might come back, but because we really believe in the legacy their names hold. Characters like Hero Prime, Mr. Zen, Winsome Blue, and Fiera Arcane will remain on our accounts, unplayed, forever (or at least until NCsoft decides to take them back) because of the history they have in the game world.
Unfortunately I won't be around Saturday night to try for any of the prizes, but if I may ask, are you, by chance, holding any of the following names...?
Waitress
Decoy
Ingot
Atom Master
Tarantula Hawk
Dead Serious
Thermocouple

Good deal. Thanks.

Sorry to see you guys go, but definitely a classy way to do it.
Edited the main post to change one of the prizes.
Sounds like a good bon voyage party...Godspeed Prime.
Your presence in the Virtue community will be sorely missed. You were a model player, both as a SG leader and a roleplayer. I wish you and the wife all the best in wherever life takes you next.
Oh, right...
*insert obligatory name grab plea here*
I don't suppose you're still holding Silvertongue. :P
Also, I'm sad to see you go. We've never really interacted but you've been a rock among the forums.

I'm not a Virtue player but still, i just wish you and your Wife the best in both of your life's and future.
Good players will always be missed.

That won't happen for a bit, however. I have another 13 days on the account.

What you should do is find people you trust in-game to carry on these legacy characters. Like comics do.
Ice/Ice Blaster. Dedication to concept is an ugly thing.
Claws/WP Brute. Sex without the angst.
Every CoX character lies somewhere on this spectrum.
Oh man. I'm sorry to see you leave. Best of luck with the future and your gaming fun!
If you give up the name Pain, I'd love to have it back!
((I'm sad to see you go too. I wish the best to you and your wife. I hope good things come your way. Class act all the way around.))
While it is sad to see you both go, I have tons of respect for you two going out this way, it's a great way to give back. It is a generous way to give back (not to mention the priceless names you intend to release!). Best of luck with real life and other future endeavors, I'll keep in touch!
@Kalen on Virtue
Wow, I just might have to come along, at least just to see you guys off. Sounds like fun =)
-STEELE =)
Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)
Just updating the prize info. We're up to 12 Billion INF now.
Thanks for the well-wishes, everyone. Tomorrow night is going to be a blast!
My wife and I have been playing City of Heroes off and on since late in beta, and it's been amazing, but the time has come for us to move on. We're focusing on making some sweeping changes - better fitness, more time spent with the kids - and will not be returning. Now, we've left before, and even once decided we'd never be back, but this time, well... we never really felt it before, and this time we do. It's real.
You folks, the people of Virtue, have made our stay here one of smiles and tears, of joy and pain, of good times and bad. That was your gift to us - to make us feel at home, and give of yourselves, for roleplaying, banter, teaming, and just having fun. Now we want to give something back to you.
This Saturday at 10PM Central my wife, Fiera Arcane, and I will be hosting a costume/trivia/bio/whatever contest. We've got some excellent prizes lined up. For instance...
- Over 12 Billion in INF to be awarded
- A full set of Unbreakable Constraint
- Twelve Luck of the Gambler 7.5% Recharge IOs
- A full set of Hecatomb
- Over 100 pieces of high level rare (orange) salvage
This is our parting gift, our thank you and goodbye, to the people of Virtue.So... details...
WHO: Hero Prime, Fiera Arcane, and... YOU.
WHAT: Huge costume/trivia/bio/whatever contest!
WHERE: Pocket D
WHEN: 10PM Central, Saturday, May 14, 2011
