It would have been better than using the name of the server and thus making announcement titles involving it readily ignorable at a glance. 
Goodbye may seem forever
Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

I call upon the ancients for the mighty power of COPY AND PASTE AND DRAG SELECTION!!!!

I wonder how many Freems will automatically try to create accounts on Freedom, assuming it's the "F2P Server" based on the naming. It will be as tragic as it will be hilarious.

I couldn't find a suitable link to the studio performance (which IMO is much better than the live ones up on youtube) but "Freedom knows my name" by Melanie would do.

This has been bugging me for a while, what was that game that positron was talking about that you could ride free players as mounts?

I don't remember the name, but I saw an "anthropomorphic animal" themed MMO at one point that offered that as a feature. To the extent that I bothered to pay attention, it looked like there were two types of character: cartoon animals, which walked on two legs and could use tools and weapons, and "real" animals, who ran around on four legs and didn't have hands. The "toon" animals could hop on the back of the larger, faster quadraped players and ride around. That's basically all I remember though, since the game didn't look particularly interesting.

Oh come on people help me out, can anyone think of the name of the game, it was in one of the Ustreams, it may not have been Positron talking about it, but someone did. It was a game (probably a mmorpg) that you could ride the free players as a mount.

It was Hellgate: London, and Positron was only joking about it having that feature

Holy crap, I didn't expect a red name to steal my stuff, or Samuraiko to use it. XD I just made it as a joke to show one of my friends via the boards. Whee!

I can't stand FREEM. I guess it wont go away, but I wish it would. It has nothing to do with CoH.
It is politics that made it's way into the game, a place it has no business being.
FREEM started on the Colbert Report.
"Take the do out of Freedom"
Yes, it is a comedy show. But it is a comedy show about politics. I come to CoH to get away from all that, not to be reminded of it.
I so very much wish FREEM would just die.
