Let here be known that I would like to help any endeavour to keep a CoX server alive, for too many MMORPG out there are being stopped without considering the feelings of the players that forever are withdrawn of the right to play "their" game, not even because of the technology going forward, but because of business decisions like these.
Let here be known that, despite not being quite active for the community in the past years, I can no less program a bit. I know C/C++, java, (I don't think they used Ada and Ocaml, but I know these too), I also have notions of graphical and network programming, and I also have a quite strong, logical and mathematical mind. I also speak French in addition to english (for any translation restoration plan).
Let here be known that, for at least 2 years, I could devote a substanciate monthly stipend to any endeavour or sustainment needed for servers, like 4 or 5 monthly subscription. I would prefer not giving a large sum upfront.
That is what I want to give.
I also want to underline the problem that NCSoft is going to be against any kind of continuation of service that is not under their control (or to their profit), because CoX will be going up against their online games. Time spent playing City is not spent paying a subscription for {insert NCSoft game here}. If we want to continue playing, to compensate for that shall only be leverage for ourselves. Be aware, be wise, it'll only get easier.
