Well, sorry to be the discouraging realist, but do keep in mind the following facts:
1. Thor's Assassin is not an official; he's a blogger. There is a move in the professional gaming community to save CoH, but as far as we know that could be just within Paragon, what's left of it. We already knew that Paragon is trying to scrape together something; we just don't know what.
2. We know what some of those key elements are going to be: first, this movement needs money to pay NCSoft for whatever NCSoft is willing to part with. Second, it will need cooperation on NCSoft's part - we still don't know what plans NCSoft had, or how CoH didn't fit into them. If NCSoft is planning on releasing another MMO or something and doesn't want CoH to compete with it, then they will do what they can to kill any attempt to revive it. Last, keeping CoH up and running, or raising it from the dead, will require staff to maintain it. I'm sure all of these things are currently on the negotiating table.

Nonetheless, this definitely is an encouraging blog, because it proves that Paragon itself is still trying - we aren't going down without a fight, and they aren't going down without one either. And we also know that our support is helping Paragon's cause, even if it's just moral support and encouragement.
And yes, I hope that there really is a widespread movement within the professional gaming community that is gaining support in an attempt to save CoH. And yes, I hope that NCSoft is getting anxious over the undesirable public image that they stand to acquire if they do not do something to allow CoH to continue.
