Freem isn't copyrighted in any database, nor is it trademarked.
Calvin & Hobbes used it in 1987, in a Sunday strip. I came across it in a C&H book I was reading at Books A Million:





Crappy camera on phone took a kinda blurry pic of 1987 copyright date.

And I miss them...
No need to be confused, Calvin obviously traveled through time in his time machine.

The fact that "VIP" players feel the need to cloister themselves away on their own server is sad. Those that run around doomsaying that F2P players are universally terrible couldn't be more wrong. You should be staying on your home servers, encouraging and showing new players why CoH's community is better than the average MMO, not acting like elitist ponces.

Really, Freem has everything you need in a good name. It's got Free in it, which makes it ironic to be the VIP server. It has the appropriate amount of in-game, inside knowledge about it that shows what it means to be a VIP player.

Besides it's "Freem!" and better than the "No Noob" server.


Uber Talgrim - level 50 emp/dark defender
Uber Rod - level 50 dark melee/regen scrapper
Rod Valdr - level 50 invuln/SS tanker
Talgrim - level 50 ninja/dark mastermind

OMG!! Please add these costume designs now!

In case it matters, I also vote for Freem!

Besides, in some of the 'pre mission' pictures with the hints? There it is, shows up all the time. "FREEM!" in big white letters. So the 'new VIP' thing doesn't cut it with me.

It's gotta win. Gotta.

That's right, and if they name the VIP server Freem! those tips will become an advertisement to become a VIP player.

Maybe we can compromise, and call it VEEEP!
