That was post-Paragon, pre-Strike Team.

Its not as bad as it sounds because at the time Castle was the powers team lead, and there were a couple of different ... ok, it was that bad.

Why you little..!

Thanks for letting us know! I had been wondering. Good to know you didn't leave us!

Now I just have to figure out why I never see Lady_Sadako around any more.

Add me to the list who wondered where you went. I didn't post too much except questions, but I did notice you missing. Really glad you got to work for Paragon, and thank you not only for the posts as a scrapper, but for everything you did as a redname making the game into the game I loved.

Wow, the petition is over 11 thousand signatures. You guys and gals are simply amazing!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Thank you for giving us so much support right now! This is definitely the kind of ammunition we need.

You know there's something I've been meaning to say to you over the years. I love your forum icon and forum name! That cat is bananas!

Dude, why would we NOT support you guys?

I can understand that MMOs don't last forever, and that CoH will shut down eventually... but this is crazy premature. Issue 24 is insanely promising, bringing closure to the last of the launch complaints and with crazy Blaster buffs. Heck, I hate playing ranged damage characters, and I was itching to try out a Blaster with all the changes you guys made. Just, y'know... after I kicked a bunch of *** redside with my planned TW/Bio Armor Brute.

You've got our swords, our axes, our bows, and even access to a great number of our wallets to some degree. We want you to keep going. We want to see what's next. And then we want you to go some more. To the next level. TO THE MOON.

... Sorry, that got a little weird there. I haven't been getting much sleep lately (and I imagine many of the players and developers which make up this community can empathize).




May this be the first of many FPARNs to come.

At this point, if you want to load me into a cannon and shoot me at the NCSoft offices, I'll go get a helmet.

Speaking of which, you should see Claws' build now.

It's pretty epic.

Softcapped to S/L, perma-Dull Pain, close to perma-Hasten.

I just need a set of Apocalypse and a set of Hecatomb and I will probably be able to achieve perma-Hasten.

Never bothered with purples before, but with the end looming in front of us, I'm gonna go out in style.

This is my first post on these boards in years.
When I heard of the news, I dug out my old login and came back just to find the petition linky.

Lots of us 'old hands' might have moved on to new pastures over the years, but I can guarantee that we still think of this game and all you guys very fondly.

Don't give up hope folks. You're all Heroes (even the Villains!)

Good, or Evil, you guys gave us a home where we could exercise those tendancies. Which means both Heroes and Villains will support you.

Wow, do I ever miss talking builds! I think the last time I messed around with a Claws Scrapper was with Invulnerability as secondary. I had created a build that had perma-Hasten, capped HP, capped Smashing/Lethal Resist, and softcapped S/L/F/C/E/N Defenses. Decent Resists for F/C/E/N that only improved in I24.
