[First Post]
Hey all, new poster here. First, a big thank you to all the guys here. I rarely have seen such community spirit and positivity!
I'm almost a seven year vet of CoX (well... my 7th year would have been on 1st of December
), having started with City of Villains and staying mostly redside. I haven't heard that CoX was clsoing down until last weekend. Never got an email from NCSoft. I had to learn it from a buddy from Germany who was visiting on Saturday... a buddy I met seven years ago in, you guessed right, City of Villains. I was shocked. I never played much during the last years, popped in a few times every year to see how things are going, though I never cancelled my account, not even when "Freedom" hit (I dunno - felt like treason to me).
I started digging around on the net and found this place. Good, I thought, something is on its way. Nontheless Monday at work was horrible, even Tuesday. I couldn't get CoX out of my head. What can I do? What can I do? I asked myself.
This morning, before going to work, I saw the new letter from NCSoft. I was shattered. All those efforts for nothing? I read through this thread during breaks and my spirits lifted again.
Thanks to you guys I'm feeling better. I've got some ideas how to reach some non-gaming forums where I frequent and will raise the issue there. Perhaps one of them might sign the petition, too.
And although I was more at home in the Rogue Isles:
We are Heroes. This is what heroes do. (well, there has to be something which I can conquer, after all
)
