Now I've this feeling that I'll be chastised or made fun of, but I really feel as though I failed. I let anger, and emotion stop me from enjoying the last few weeks to months of CoH with a great community. I let it stop me from a few more nights of RP, a few more nights of Incarnate Trials, a few more nights in Paragon City.
You won't be made fun of here. And I wouldn't call it failing, to choose to move forward along what you felt was a brighter path. Especially with a new family member to think about.
Glad you stopped by though! At least around here you have some understanding friends to remember the good stuff with. I mean, it's better than a kick in the teeth, right?
And hey, you know what? Don't count this community out just yet. There are some very talented people working on ways to let us fly again. It might be in a rebuilt Paragon City, or it might be in a freshly built place that still has that new city smell. But one way or the other, I fully believe we'll have a city again one day. We just have to find positive ways to occupy our time and our minds until that day comes. So pull up a chair and join in on some of the discussions. Heck, start a few! We'd love to hear from you!
PS, in case you haven't seen it yet... you might wanna look into
Titan Icon. It lets you edit costumes, load up maps and fly around in them, and spawn in NPCs for screenshots and laughs. There's a whole section covering it in the Multimedia part of the forums. It's not the same as playing, granted, but a lot of people find it helps ease the sting.
