sorry I have been gone for too long, but I found the original city of heroes message boards is still open and people are still posting. I will post the url http://web.archive.org/web/20120904115523/http://boards.cityofheroes.com/forumdisplay.php?f=609
One day the Phoenix will rise again.

are you sure people are still posting or is it only showing the last dates that this was archived? Or do you mean something else?

Sadly this is from Waybackmachine and it is only an archived copy.
 
for those of you that haven't seen it, there is a fan site that has reproduced the look of the original almost perfectly. http://www.cityofheroes.ca/index.html 
As long as somebody keeps making up stories for it, the City isn't gone.

yeah frog checked that one out. I am a bit surprised that there isn't more activity on it though.
Besides a few extra categories, they basically nailed it to as close to perfection in reproducing the look as possible. Good work that site is.

meh, it happens.

Plus it don't look to be needed especially with one already recreated. As far as active open posting that is.
Thinking about it may mean a recipe for disaster with no mods.

Why would you do this to me?    >:(

I was curious and thought that my heart had hardened enough.  I was wrong.  I got all misty-eyed when I went to look over some of the threads.  Damn it, I had no clue it would affect me like it has.    :'(

Still, I can't help but look and have fond memories.  Thanks for helping to keep the memory alive.

Yeah, I think the .CA site has never really taken off because there are now several other boards taking the place of the original site, and so it exists in a nostalgia time warp. There's the boards here on Titan, the boards on Phoenix/Titans two sites, the boards for Heroes and Villains, plus small areas on boards for other games like CO. It's hard to want to go back to that sore spot when you've settled in to a new place... like driving by an old apartment only to realize everyone you know there has moved out.
