I think the timing of some of the NC Soft 'sunset' announcements have been interesting. We should all have been feeling good about buying the Devs dinner and giving them a lovely time, and the same night they post a sunset timetable and FAQ, which throws everyone into zomgdepressed mode.

Might we worth preparing ourselves for more official announcements time to hit as our spirits start to lift.

Okay, I'm not quite up on who's who in the CoH saga - who's Yoon?

Well I just spent $20 of my own money on an Express Mail letter to Dr Yoon attempting to convince her that (a) City is now an evolving work of art and deserves to be preserved and (b) one of the things it has evolved into is a US version of Maple Story (Nexxon's 2-D MEGA hit).  Should be on her desk Friday.  Well, assuming it gets that far.

As always, thank you for all your contributions, VV. Many hugs to you! Many hugs!

Ah, gotcha, thanks.

I'm concentrating on her because I am hoping a successful woman might be inclined to listen to another successful woman.

Hey, whatever works, right? I don't really "get" people, so all I can understand appealing to.. well, someone's self-interest. So, I dunno, good luck?

So if you're wondering, "What can I do?", there are three main things.

First, keep playing the game.  Keep engaged with your supergroups.  Are they smaller?  You leaving will only make it worse.  Keep showing up for the ones that remain.  Keep running those task forces, those incarnate trials, those PuGs and coalition events.  When we schedule something, show up if you can.  Aside from being fun, it also generates great publicity.  Don't get discouraged.  Or if you do (as we all do sometimes), don't stay there long before dusting yourself off and continuing to have at it.

Second, if you have talents such as being a video wiz, musically inclined, artistically inclined, comically inclined, ...whatever your talent is, if you can spare some of it for our cause, please do!

Third, stay tuned in.  Things really may change on a day-by-day basis.  You never know when that one thing that you can really help us out with will come along.  Plus, the more you stay engaged with us, the less attrition from our player base we suffer.  Even if the game does shut down on November 30, we can continue to fight and work on alternatives.  But if people get to where they just don't care any more, that will be when our movement really does meet its match.

I'm doing my damnest but I'm the last of my SG with any will to log in everyone else is pretty much soul crushed at this point and I think that's all that's fueling me going.  So I'd like to add? Support your SGmates, your friends, anyone you played with try to keep going even if it's just get the SG together for one last screencap of you all. Then get that posted up all over the web.  I'm glad the Titan group here is doing stuff and I'll do what I can ya know it's just hard to keep going in the face of what we're facing. Then again? If any game ever deserves the playerbase to step up for it. It's COH.

If you get discouraged, do what I do. Log onto Virtue and stop by AP33. That always lifts my spirits, for several reasons. (lol)

Welcome to the forums, Dr. Yoon.

[onefrigidwitch]

Hey, it took a lot of digging to find out who she was. I never suspected someone quite so young in the position she has. However, having lived in Korea for some time, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised.

VV, did you send a USPS international mail order to her? I will not spend the extra money to send a travelers check....

Also got her Ph.D. from MIT at a very young age.

Welcome to the forums, Dr. Yoon.

So you don't think sending flowers would help I take it?

Oh, I'm a fan of all forms of flattery, bribery, and general buttering-up-ery. I say have at it. I just had a nice laugh at onefrigidwitch's first post here.

[onefrigidwitch]

I thought she'd be like, in her 40s or 50s and kinda old looking or something. One of those typical board room super-sharks smokin 5 100bills rolled up cigar shaped each day and what not. Frankly, I wonder what she is really like, and who actually was instrumental in all these ncsoft shutdowns. :/

Call to Action:  Send D. Yoon flowers!!!

not entirely serious

or am I 

[dwturducken]

^like

Wheels are turning, now...

[DrakeGrimm]

...I actually like this idea. Get flower shops to send her flowers with cards stating "We are heroes. This is what we do."
