There's only one way I'll ever bring up Hitler on the Internet. So, here's Hitler, getting a black eye.

(There's also that cat picture I posted that one time.)



Quinch actually made a legit thread and in less than four posts it answered the OP's question in flying colors. I could have just linked to the third post by Alpha Wolf and called it a day.

Everything else we did here yesterday was a waste of time, including everything I posted, unless you consider lame arguments on the Internet to be worth our while and instrumental to saving City of Heroes.

The fact is, while I was busy deflecting all the poo that everyone was flinging in Mercedes Lackey's direction in some random Internet argument she'll never read, she was busy actually helping to save City of Heroes--composing one of the most eloquent certified letters to CEO Songyee Yoon I've read yet, written from one successful woman, a New York Times bestseller, to another successful woman at the top of NCSoft; and written to appeal to some of South Korea's entertainment industry's most popular cultural artifacts.

Call these efforts useless if you will, but if you keep doing it here, in some dying forum that no one will ever read, while the targets of your ire are out there soaking in the gaming media's spotlight...well, good luck and have fun being such "realists."

Please go to www.SaveCoH.com, write letters, send masks and capes, writes posts on other forums, write open letters to NCSoft in comment sections beneath articles covering SaveCoH on gaming and other news sites. Do something to help save City of Heroes, and then come judge the disingenuousness of other peoples efforts.

I would love to just agree to disagree and get it done and have some fun.

And I think this is why I prefer face to face talk. When online, there is too much guessing. one negative makes the whole thing seem overly negative, even though if spoken face to face, it would only seem like, "Hm ok, this guy didnt have a good time." Here its "ZOMG!!! YOU TROLLL!!!" even with the same words.
Oh, absolutely, the difference between text and talking with inflection and body language and all is enormous... Absolutely agreed. And, it is true, one tiny portion within a collection of text can often outweigh the rest of it, in some reader's minds, as opposed to if it was just included in regular conversation.

That works in all directions too. One positive remark and people can label you a "blinded fool" and such.

I once mentioned one instance of killing someone and people accuse me of being a murderer... *sigh* Shhhhh...

The CEO of NCsoft is Taek-Jin Kim. Dr. Song-Yee Yoon is the Chief Strategist and, as far as I can tell, the head of North American operations. She also happens to be the wife of Taek-Jin Kim, and apparently something of a prodigy. If I recall correctly, I think she earned her PhD in engineering from MIT at 24 and within a few years was running the largest telecom in South Korea. Not to discount Taek-Jin Kim as CEO, but the reason Mercedes Lackey reached out to Dr. Yoon is because they are both successful women in their respective fields, which gives them a starting thread of common ground. Plus, Dr. Yoon is one of two people who definitely has the power to override anything anyone else in the company says and tell them, "Make this happen."


We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)

Nah, I'm a lazy part-timer, these days, only work Mon-Wed. This week, though, Pix has taken Baby Shad to visit his grandparents while she goes to a hen party (that's a bachelorette party to our US fellows), so I'm hosting a whole-weekend roleplaying session at our house.


The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise. ; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

Can anyone confirm if this is legitimate? It sounds like good news but I'd hate to spread a rumor.
