Hello again pollsters.
So, first of all, thanks for playing along. The purpose of this poll was mainly selfish but we did come up with a short list of people that have raised their hands and said "yeah, I like CO, that's why I play the game and come here to talk about it". And that seems worthwhile. So here it is. For your list reading pleasure.

I dont play anything that I dont enjoy. To me that defeats the purpose of playing a game. Or if I was in the habit of playing stuff I didnt enjoy, I wouldnt have time for CO or any other video game and be out playing Shuffleboard. Thus I play CO, and I enjoy it.
I play and I wouldn't play if I didn't enjoy it.
Yeah, huh.
I'm with ya. Seems like a dumb question to me too.
I asked it because I was reading what seemed like a lot of posts, and criticisms, that didn't seem like they were coming from people that like the game, and, felt the need to come here and share that with all of us.
Normally most posts here are about the game in a fun/positive way and that's why I've stuck around. No drama or moaning, like can be (last I knew..) so common on official forums. Just stuff about the game that was interesting or fun enough for someone to take the time to come here and write about it.
And then there are the other posts.
They usually come and go and it seems like some months ago since the last round but this last time I had to ask myself. "Yo, Xev, you do remember you're on a CoH forum, right?" "Maybe that is purpose #1 for this CO subforum, is for CoH ,,, needs, and it only says CO on the door so that when wandering around CoH Central, you can see what room you are in."
Does this make sense?
I was.... Just curious. Curious to find out if I was in the wrong place. Because I want to be in the CO room that says CO on the door because that's where CO gamers go to talk about the game and see what other CO gamers are saying.
CoH was great. I miss my brutes most off all. And playing the market. And farming AE for salvage in the most extreme way possible. And taking a team to any zone in the game (minus Eden..), any area of the zone, and XP'ing them or maybe I just solo - to say I did it. And to try to be a little bit as good as the ppl that inspired me to do stuff like that and are way better at it. I miss my purpled out incarnated out Mids'ded out... Hot rods. Someone said once that logging in to CoH and looking at their toons was like staring at a garage full of hotrods and trying to decide which one to take for a spin.
But. I play CO now. When CoH comes back, I'll be there if I haven't got ran over/blown up/whatever, who cares if I have to start from scratch. I didn't put all this time into CO to just dump it, either. I like CO.
And, I only play things that I enjoy, too.
So yeah, this poll was selfish. And it was a kinda knee-jerk thing. And it's not/never was intended to be judgmental in a negative way. I was... Just curious. Curious if I was trying to be a round peg trying to fit into a square hole. Wouldn't be the first time I was in the wrong place and didn't know it. At least I'm learning to ask!
Anyway, for whatever reason you're here. I hope ya had a great gaming day. And if ya didn't, I hope ya do, soon. Me, I'm gonna go back to playing, and trying to post something useful/interesting when the situation comes up.
I enjoy reading and replying to the CO gamer posts here. Thx for sharing your good times.
Respectfully,
Yer pal,
Fellow gamer.
