And now the end is near...

I've noticed that as we get closer to the end, more and more bile has finally risen to the surface. It's better this way, I think. More honest. People exposing themselves for the flawed, contradictory humans they've always been. No more veil of BS that we're all one big happy family. We never were.

We all only had one thing in common; this game. It's soon going away. When it does, we'll soon find how some of us are just too alien to some others.

This is quite liberating.

All things end. Nothing wrong with that.


Be well, people of CoH.

...and so I face...the final curtain.

It is my place to stand.
We few shall carry hope
Within our bloodied hands."

They've literally asked us to police ourselves in the last few weeks of the game. They don't have the staff to do it anymore. So you see two things: posts that people would have openly made in the past that also would have been deleted by mods, and people seeing those posts NOT getting deleted and becoming braver to step even further over the line.

And this is why we don't bring any of Loki's toys with us onto the ship.

This. I've always made posts like the ones yall are seeing now when the mood struck me but in the past they were rapidly deleted or censored by the mods. Some posts earned me small vacations from posting. Tonight's certainly would have in the past.


Be well, people of CoH.

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.

Before I worked at Paragon I always tried to be nice, and was usually more focused on selling the game to others. Whenever I did get negative though, I tried to be less harsh.

Then after I started working at Paragon I was always harsh to Black Pebble.

<--- redefined harsh

<-- redefined prickishness

In some ways, yes, it's nice to see people exposed for what they are, but I dislike seeing that our "save CoH" movement is being ran by idiots, racists, pontificators, and self-righteous twerps. I'd rather have thought of them as upstanding individuals trying to do a good thing.


Doom.

Yep.

This is really doom.

Haha, Voodoo, we always knew you were a softy at heart though.


Some of us are behaving the way we've always behaved. I need no rules above me nor future ahead of me to be who I am.

I find it pretty sad when people think so mightily of themselves that they spew nothing but contempt and talk down to others.
Once I really get to know you... then maybe I'll talk down to you.

I, for one, have maintained my typical posting habits.

I'd not only like to see it back, but see it come back better!

If it was just the Lore (hopefully a bit of refinement to it) would that still be CoH?
