I'll post an alt list later, but for now, this is the best I can do.


Feels like we’re all in a fight we can’t win, doesn’t it?
Unknown people are making decisions affecting our lives.
Certainty is something we are all seeking but we won’t know if we'll have it.
Knowing that the end is near and we’re seemingly unable to change it is what hurts.

You alone can decide how you choose to remember your time here.
Others can only decide when it ends, but not what the game meant for us.
Understanding the true meaning of our time together is how I’ve decided to face the end.

Nobody can change how we feel about the people we’ve met playing this game.
Constant reminders are in our everyday lives of those friends we’ve made along the way.
Some came into our lives and left too soon, some stayed way too long.
Only by remembering all of them will the memories truly stay with us forever.
Forgetting the bad only jades the good, forgetting the good only reinforces the bad.
Together we entered a city of strangers, we made it a city of friends, and we leave it a City of Heroes.

that is well written, actually would be pretty good to send that off to news sites (maybe slightly different)

the last line especially is what got to me, about starting as city of strangers and turning it into a city of friends

Batman has Robin. Sarah has Monkeybutt. Forever friends, and for that Paragon I thank you.


Thanks, NC Soft, for closing my favorite game ever without warning and with plenty of life still left in it, and thus relieving me of the burden of EVER wanting to buy, try or even hear about another game from your company. Will my decision make a dent, or persuade them in anyway, shape or form? Nope, obviously not. Don't care. NC Soft is dead to me. ~ PsyFox

Thank you Sarah, especially for the last line. It should be on a bumper sticker. Or at least a sig.

Edit: There, now it's a sig.
