Tunnel Rat, you're responsiveness and openness with the community was super appreciated and your spunky personality seemed to fly off the screen in the coffee chats, hehe!
Your reaction to my Zox'Oculox costume was a highlight of my time here and your care to put in aura options to accommodate costume concepts of that type is both awesome and a sign of being super smart in always taking things in to make things better, any way you can.
I remember logging in one night and seeing Beastyle in game, and I just happened to be playing Zox'Oculox. He sent me a tell saying that you guys had been talking about that character during lunch!
Haha, I'm glad the product you guys worked on, allowed me to give you guys something back... talk about rebounds.
Anyway... your spirit and skills made you another wonderful member of the greatest MMO team in the business.
It's a complete shame that the rug has been pulled out the way it has, but that doesn't change the fact that Paragon Studios and City Of Heroes are the best and delivered quality, tons of fun, customer satisfaction and the best online super hero experience without exception.
You all deserve to be treated like champs, because you are.
Thank you!!
and round up everyone that knows more than they do"-Dylan
You did wonderful work. Tunnel Rat is my favourite contact and I always wondered if you shared the same characteristics.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
We'll miss you too - and Honey Badger - both of you did such amazing effects work.

Christopher lee sacking still left a sour taste in my mouth ..
But atleast in a month , the new/old team has won back the trust , that it was doing more for the playerbase , then most could have known .
Thank you for all the good work .
Thank YOU too! I'm glad that an assortment of rednames have been able to get on, collect their thoughts and allow us to give our thanks.
I sure wish that more Praetorian stuff had been developed, but hey. It was gorgeous, and I'm glad I saw it. So thank you for your contributions, in and out of the game!
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!

*trying not to cry anymore*
all the devs on this game were the best ever, very communicative with the playerbase always telling us when stuff was happening and always wanting to give us the best quality work

I loved your effects work and it was great to hear you talk about your work in the Ustream sessions. I think your cheerful outlook is really going to help a lot of us cope with this great loss.
That's what she said!

Thanks for an awesome game.
Cheers to ya, Ms. Rat.
Thanks for all the hard work, and good luck finding a new hole.
Ok, that sounds wrong...
Cutest Dev Ever award also.
Also, I've banned crying in this thread. And Black Pebble.
Thank you for all you great work.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
*COUGH GAG* I didn't even realize what'd I'd written in the subject! HAHAHAHA!

Before I say anything else - CoH community, thanks for everything. You've supported our game and dev team for years on so many levels. It's been a joy to get to know you through the forums, at player summits and cons, and of course, in the game. And, specifically to the CoH forumites, thanks for teaching me about the game I worked on. A couple years before I was a redname, I was a forum lurker. The Blaster and (dare I admit it?) Market forums were instrumental in getting me to love the game and love my job. I had the privilege of meeting some of you in-game as well (incognito) and I can honestly say my in-game interactions with forum posters were ALWAYS pleasant. A forum poster led me on my first Hami raid ever (and didn't get mad when I messed up). A forum poster was gracious when I thanked her for her market advice. A forum poster accepted me into his super group and always laughed at my jokes.
Just like any job, there are occasionally long or frustrating days, no matter how much you love what you do. On these rare days, I hopped into the game and was instantly reminded how wonderful our player base is. Guys, thanks for posting in my FX thread and thanks for the feedback on my work, and most of all, thanks for the PuGs, the costume contests and the taskforce runs. You treated me wonderfully without ever knowing my connection to the game.
To my co-workers, now friends - I will desperately miss working at Paragon Studios. Thanks so much for keeping me around, even when I initially knew so little about the game that I had to ask BaBs what an AoE was. I've learned so much from all of you. Thanks for the lunches, the occasional life advice, hell, thanks for all the THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID jokes.
And Black Pebble, thanks for cheering me up when I leaked those auras. Shh, don't tell anyone.
Goodbye, guys, and I say that as Tunnel Rat and as @Pygmy Titan. I'll be sure to jump back in the game for a last few hurrahs. Take your time to mourn for the game (I know I will). But don't worry too much about us, or about a future without City of Heroes. The most important part of an MMO is the relationships it fosters, and I'm sure those will remain in tact. We're ALL going to get through this Strong and Pretty.
