Good Bye

Never thought I'd have to hang up my pink n yellow cowboy hat but apparently on 11/30 I do. I will miss all of you - well except one but I AM not here to discuss that dipstick

All joking aside, I really will miss this community. I have met a lot of nice people and enjoyed the time I've spent on this server. I have some very fond memories:

Joining HDS: If a toon was ever proud - it was mine on that day.
Kicking Hami's butt: See above.
PvPing (even though I sucked at it) with Freak Friends.
Losing the name Monkeybutt: Saddest Day Ever. Getting it back (because apparently you all make worse names than Monkeybutt that don't get banned)....best day ever!
TWELVE IMPS......I mean.....wow.


I really can't sit and name every single person I have met that has an impact on my toons but I can name some: First and foremost - Sweet Sarah. Sarah and I have such history but he is, and always has been, my best in-game friend. He taught me how to PL, he sat on the phone and listened to me cry over silly boys, he sent me pink mittens. <3 Sarahpookieface.

Second in command - Starlight.....he doesn't play as much anymore but Star always took (takes) the ribbings we would give him. No matter what we nicknamed his toon.....(Tarlight....., Dogface.....hehehe). The time we level pacted our toons and he played the crap out of the pact (::whistles:. Starlight is a true hero and an even better friend.

Teach .....how on earth does one even begin to describe Teach? He was the most amazing player. He would bend over backwards to help someone. Just the nicest guy and one of the people I miss the most.

RL (Revolver Law): Nice doesn't begin to describe RL. Who didn't love him singing at a HamiRaid?

Gahd - He was just the nicest sweetest strangest nicest guy I have ever met. You always had fun when you played with Gahd.

Riddle - Awesome guy

Blind - Sweetie with a Barry White voice!

Tax E - My very own sweetie pie alarm clock. Tax E and the Tax E bots were a mainstay of this community back when the game was challenging and fun. TP me out please!

Pickle(s), Fizzbe, Retro, PS, Dirty Mommy - people I no longer am friends with (sadly) but that doesn't mean I do not think about them. When I do it is with fondness and melancholy. Hope you are ALL doing well if you still read these forums and that life is treating you well.

FireWire - I think of you often as my boyfriend has the same real life name as you. SMH! (I know if you read these forums that will make you laugh.) And I still turn red when I think of the time I fell asleep at a hami raid with my toon on follow [you] and w/auto heal on.

Ajax.....oh Ajax. What I spent on those stupid *** wings for you and now you can't give them away! LOL!

Stormbringer - Dude you were just so mellow and fun. I always enjoyed teaming with you. Stormteams FTW!

Milk Weasel - I remember Cross Dresser following me around. Glad she did <3

Quijon - you made me laugh.

Tanzie - You go girl ::snap:: Always loved talking to you, you put a smile on my face every convo we had.

Green Eyed Lady - I was at your wedding to Outlaw Woman. Love you both.

Ukrasex - We had some good pms over other people's behavior. Out of those came a lot of respect (And yes I still call you that b/c once I nickname you.....thats it but I usually only nickname with love.)

Doc Photon - We had some good teams And you always always always caught me when I was pling LOL!

Helly - I miss you.

Hank - I have not texted you in the middle of the night in a long time. Perhaps tonight.....muahahah. Also: Please do not grief my 2nd account on the rocks. Thank you.

Shad - Vegas baby. Vegas. Also remember when you beat up Star in pvp. I have video.

Jazzy - See above Vegas baby! Also remember when we beat up Star in pvp.

COD - The first time I saw you running around with imps - I HAD TO HAVE THEM.

Enderbeaners: Always a smile for Monkers.

Turbo - Didn't think I would forget you did you??? How many times did you keep me awake at 3 am when I was ready to zzzzzzzzzz? Too many and for that! I thank you. <3

Foj - We came to be friends later in the game. I am glad I met you and even gladder that you have more badges than Star.

Kal - I am going to have to move there and marry you! (See I know what makes you smile big guy!)

Miss Lib: I need you to marry Foj. That is all.

THE ENTIRE LEGION SG - Vio, Energizing Ion, Milk Weasel, Aeryn, Bo (I still hate pandas mister), every single Doc in it, and every single person that has ever been it. You are ALL an amazing bunch of players. Keep on keeping on.

SISTERHOOD FRIENDS - I love you guys, always ready with a smile and a team. Truly the classiest bunch of people on Liberty.

Devs - Thanks for making this game for me. I know it was for me because you had me at the first day I ever played. <3

If I forgot anyone, I am truly sorry but know that in some way you all impacted me at one point or another. If you invited me to a league, thank you. If you helped me with a mission, thank you. If you didn't mind me playing 4 accts at once, thank you. If you bridged for me back when PLing was fun - THANK YOU!

Liberty, Thank You.

That word up there by the way has a typo I obviously meant to write FUN CSoft.....yep yep.

See I just re-read my post and then I read Star's post. Then I cried. Then I copied Star's post so I could list the people now I know that I forgot:

Skystrike - Someone needs to send us the pic of you hanging out with MDK drinking. That was epic funny.

Reckage, Slicky Boy: Oldtimers with attitude - loved em.

Mac Daddy B: Yes, I am a farmer....and Sarah is a farmer....but Mac took farming to a whole new epic level. So to Mac - a great leader, a great friend and a f-------- great farmer - here's to you pal.

DracX: - Your fight with Foo - legendary.

Lestatia - Pretty Girl

Bob the Tanker - I still have Bobbo #5. Yep watched it the other day in fact.

Dr. Cozy - the hours I spent with her on vent, are priceless. Such a dear girl and a good friend.

Plas - Thanks for dinner.

Hans - Hans was just funny and had more 50s than all of us combined.

Abrakadabra - HDS born and bred - a true gentleman

BURT (AND Ernie): I named And Ernie. <3 Burt.

ADH (Another Dead Hero): King of the Binds

Arclight - Big Poppa of the Legion. Nice guy, and I was always happy to see him checking in, even if he wasnt playing much.

Capella - Cappy....what are we going to do?

Cronus, Cyclone Jack, Col. Maxwell, Dead Muppet (that name made me laugh out loud the first time I saw it and every other muppet after that!).....all people on my global list that I haven't seen in ages but miss them every day.

Dumok, Frazier, Fishy, Gibson, Golden Ace (oh my yellow armored friend......), Grynder, Gurmo, Hak (The original Hak - truly a joy to watch try to master a controller when you were a scrapper at heart. You big galoof!). I am going to miss you all.

Hazy, Horus - You guys still make me smile.

I bot - wow, how the hell did you get on my friend's list????

Inflated Donkey - HEHEHEHE

Kitten of Chaos - :ets da kitteh:: :urrs::

Kokopelli Joe - Earth Control ftw!

Lady Lucindre - IS A BOY! The secret's out

Ghost - he was a killer pvper and invisible.

Ms. July - Another boy. Funny as hell too.

Ownage - a teenager with an attitude, lots of fun on vent with him. I suspect that now he is no longer a teen, been years since I've seen him but I bet he's still got the attitude

Pants Stealer - I've still got my pants but to keep this game I would gladly hand them over.

PW....PM me. I must know are you a boy or a girl. After almost 8 years, I still sometimes can never tell (in a good way!). You know what - doesn't matter. I love you either sex. You rock and always have. Love Monkey.

Real Something - You are a real beautiful person. I love you and your pets.

Robo - I love Real. Mine. <3

Shirai Ryu - The heart and soul of MDK. (dude email me that pic of Skystrike! its epic!)

Solution - The love triangle you had going on was epic. Trust me - she should've picked you.

Irish QT - Thanks for the laughs.

Foo - thanks for showing us your guns.

Steele/Valor - Thanks for showing Liberty what true friendship is - you guys have stuck together the entire course of this game. Very admirable and awesome to see.

Goddess - Thanks for the drunken night in Ohio. That was major fun.

VINTY - Omg.....how on earth can I ever forget the very first person I ever teamed with? Vinty - illusion controller extraordinare. Funny as hell and nice as pie. Vinty I know you no longer log on, and I don't think you were a forum reader but I hope you see this. L'Fire loves you and thanks for all the rezzes in levels 20-35. <3

Also if anyone wants to know Ion's real name: It is Bubkis Penas. Yep! Friend him on facebook!!!!

Of course, I didn't think you could forget me. I kept you soooooo many nights. I should be the one thanking you. You took the time to help me out ALOT. You were a great teacher.

Thank you for everything.

I was on your team last night for the Hami Raid, MonkeyB. Having all my liberty family around me felt so right. I wish Valor could have joined us. My mind is too scrambled for such a list as yours. It's all I can do not to wear sackcloth and ashes.

Thank you, Liberty. It's been the best of times to see me through the worst of times. We are family. We may squabble and kick one another in the shins on occasion, but families do that.

We need more big community raids before the end. I want to go out feeling the way it did when I joined you.

Its hard, I tried really hard to remember all the people I know but I know I forgot some and then I feel bad.

To sum up how I feel about this server I put in a pm I just had with Ukrasex (<3 Ukaserex), to me this server makes ME feel (super)important. When I am home and offline, I feel normal but I am not extraspecial, I am just plain ole me. But when I log onto Paragon onto any monkeytoon of mine and I say hi, I instantly get tons of "hi"s back, I am greeted in broadcast and local by people I don't even know, people are happy to team with me (joke's on them I am just an okay gamer!! teehee), and all this makes me feel (super)special. And for that I can't tell you how much I love Liberty. That is the reason I have never stopped playing even in between the breaks, why I NEVER switched servers (I visited freedom briefly but why....when I already had the best?), and why I love ALL you guys. And now I am crying again. Dammit. I hope you understand what I mean, I think I have a hard time explaining it without sounding stupid.

Monkey, thanks for the fun! Gaming with you, a true icon of Liberty, has been both a pleasure and an honor.

Thanks for remembering our wedding, it was a high point of mine and Liz's time here!

This is how I feel as well. Liberty has been so welcoming, so kind, so funny, and so very family. When Valor got me to come here in Spring 2005 it was like new life breathed into the game for me. I made friends and friends became family. We may never meet face to face but I feel connected with so many of you in ways that real life cannot match. We share the same interests, ideas, jokes, and good times. We gripe and whine and cry to and for one another.

On the worst days I could always log on and say hi and people would greet me with enthusiasm and warmth. The world can be so cold, in our City it is always balmy breezes and fruity rum drinks on the beach.

I started on Pinnacle with my husband and some of our friends. It was never as good as it has been here. Don't tell my husband I said that, please.

To all my friends on Liberty, I say farewell. I am going to greatly miss this game. I can't believe this. I thought this game would run forever, and I would have plenty of chances to every so often be VIP. I haven't had much time to play games in the past few years, but I always tried to be on here a few months out of the year. So many personal memories for me with this game. Back in the end of 2004 my step dad got me into this game when it was first released, my mother before that even. Then in 2006, I got my(at the time GF) into this game. She later became my wife. We all had so much fun spending time together playing CoH/CoV. It kept us in contact and we had so much fun together. Then in 2009 I made a thread Giving the good news about my daughter being born. On the Liberty server( it's still there...http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=130904 ...

Also, this was my 1st MMO. I was never a MMO type person, but this game....there was something about it besides being able to game with my parents and my wife. Maybe it was the excellent people that I met in game, the awesome game play, the atmosphere in game. Who knows what just the one thing was or wasn't.... So many things....

You all will be missed, the game will be missed. Take care my gaming friends, and may fortune be with you all. Sending Love your way!

Jeff, AKA Whiteseeker/Stitch Whitewolf.



God Bless You...................................


PS: I play Age of Conan once in a while, so if anyone decides to play that game I am Abacannazar on Set server. Farewell......
