I'd love to say "Hi this is Bill Gates, I love this game and will personally fund it forever." but unfortunately only one of those three things is true.

*smirk* I will just go ahead and say, yes and we did (two of us I know of) send a carefully worded complaint to NcSoft, not Paragon.

And not just from Americas either. There are many, idols and public figure who have had agents send in messages.

So you're not Bill, and you don't love it, but we certainly appreciate the funding, and love you with all our hearts!

... wait... what? and you're not Bill either?

Oh.

Well, love ya anyway!

August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.
This is houtex, aka Mike, signing off the forums. G'night all. - 10/26/2012
Well... perhaps I was premature about that whole 'signing off' thing... - 11-9-2012

Somebody call Jim Butcher. He plays CoH, right? Maybe he can write a really persuasive letter and have them not kill the game. Or he can put the word out to his fans and have them start playing.

Oh, and whoever puts all of the CoH references in Big Bang Theory. Have them do an episode where Sheldon freaks out about the game shutting down.

Goodbye, I guess.

A safe bet is to reach out to known Celebrities Internet ones or otherwise that can get our cause out to the masses to keep this game at least on Matainence mode for a few more years.

I know Kevin Smith would most likely help us out. Afterall the guy runs a ******* comic book store for crying out loud. Then we have James Rolfe/the Angry Video game nerd, Felicia Day as she mentioned City of heroes before. Maybe some of the Brony's here could ask Tara Strong to tweet about us. Afterall she loves her Bronys and fans in genereal.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Rick Astley posting in here before. And supposedly he never gives up or let's you down....that could be good for us.

Poor Sheldon. That's going to require at least a half dozen repetitions of "Soft Kitty."

"And in this moment, I will not run.
It is my place to stand.
We few shall carry hope
Within our bloodied hands."

We had someone on Champion called @Genna and @Genna H4Z3 that was purportedly the adult actress but not sure if anyone verified/found out and that's probably a story better left for another (perhaps more adult-oriented) forum.

And of course no one can forget Troy Hickman...

Questions about the game, either side? /t @Neuronia or @Neuronium, with your queries!
168760: A Death in the Gish. 3 missions, 1-14. Easy to solo.
Infinity Villains
Champion, Pinnacle, Virtue Heroes

Kevin is a busy guy I don't think he plays much games. His few luxury hours are dedicated to all things batman, and should he play a hero MMO, i bet he will be playing DCUO.

There may be something to this. Never underestimate the Bronies.

So why do I get so few Christmas cards?

Troy Hickman - So proud to have contributed to and played in this wonderful CoH universe

Because they don't forget you.

I might be a pre-celebrity... If I also manage to get a time machine, I'll definitely do something about this. Hrm... guess I didn't.

You know that Protector has had a yearly holiday card exchange for ... what like 4 years now? There's an early signup thread because we don't know how long the forums will last. I think I can say that you'd be more than welcome to join the event.

But he's still a huge face of the Comic Book Community, and anyone that reaches out to him about this might be surprised. He may just help us out.

I ran into Gail Simone a couple times. She played on Virtue, and I don't recall her global, but I know she played around 2005-06.
