In some ways, I think I may actually want to start all my characters over again. I never got quite as much into RP as I wish I had, and starting over would give me a chance to do it "right", or to improve on previous characters that I didn't want to have to delete for some reason (I'm a bit of a hoarder, it seems).
On-topic, the community is what really made the game for me.
In real life, I don't really feel like part of a social group very often. Even when I'm talking about human beings in general, I tend to say "they" or "people" instead of "we". After the Save-the-Game campaign began, I noticed something; the CoX community is my "we". I would give my dad updates on the situation, saying "we're gonna just keep playing until they shut the servers down" and "we have a petition going on-line" and stuff like that.
I want my "we" back.
That's all.
