So despite the fact "DEATH OF STATESMAN 2012" has been posted all over CoH's launcher, website, forums, everything...I just had a friend nearly e-strangle me for mentioning his death. Even if you don't visit the forums I don't see how you miss this, considering she was actively playing when it was all over the launcher.

Statesman DIES?

Thanks for ruining it for me. Jerk.

Because NCsoft totally didn't do everything short of plasting it on our bedroom walls for about 3 months. Let's not forget countless upon countless of threads that still pop up about this with no spoiler tags. This is the CoH equivalent of Darth Vader being Luke's father.

With a bit of seriousness...
While you may be correct with that comparison, right now it'd still be as though it is 1980 and a lot of people still haven't gone to see Empire Strikes Back yet.
Also, there's always going to be someone who doesn't know yet.

Put him in carbonite. That seems to preserve anyone until the sequel comes out.

Stupidest damn thing I ever got yelled at for spoiling was when I said my favourite character in the Sherlock stories was Mycroft, and she was all pissed I revealed Sherlock had a brother.

Maybe we can give birth to a meme:

It's Statesman's head in the hatbox.

It's the name of Statesman's sled

Statesman was a ghost all along.

Soylent Green is Statesman!

You mean they didn't do that to you? Zwillinger said it was gonna be painted on evryone's walls... and Freitag cleaned up the paint Zwillinger spilled so you'd hardly know they'd been there... except for the big star and... well... I still don't believe they're actually gonna kill him off though. Despite what my bedroom wall says.

Who is Statesman?

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Unfortunately he has ruined it for his younger brother.

I still get the "they really killed him?" mainly from those who work off shift jobs, don't read the forums, and spend too much time running tips or rping with what game time they do have rather than paying attention to the forums and websites.

I was blissfully ignorant of the death of Statesman
Until I took an arrow to the knee of course...
HOORB!

It's not Norman Bates' crazy mother who's doing the killings, it's Statesman.

Yeah I hear if you have no clue about that, it's a wicked scary spoiler. Kind of a shame pop culture killed that scene.
