are the efforts really ongoing? could it realistically be taking over two years with literally no word?

all I want to know is if there's any headway being made. a simple, vague "advancements have been made recently" would be enough to satiate me

Talks are ongoing - but progress??

Not certain there's been much progress, but the talks are ongoing if the folks over at CoT are to be believed - and there's no real reason not to believe them.

I'm guessing, but I don't think we'll see CoH anytime before the CoT launch...

an inside source says he was perma-banned by agge whatever that means (referring to joshex)

Most forums show when a poster has been banned.  It doesn't show Joshex or his alternate doppelganger account banned.  However, I have never bothered to figure out if these forums actually show that status or not.

To the best of my knowledge, they do not.

Have we actually heard ANY news claiming that negotiations are still underway (aside from the original debut from Nate Downes in 2014)? Because if that's still the latest scoop, I would be inclined to believe negotiations failed.

If you check back a few pages one of the CoT crew was quoted from their Kickstarter page - specifically it was ongoing but slow going.

I assumed it was fairly recent from what I read of the discussion...

Correct - on the June 8th Kickstarter update comments for City of Titans the following was posted: https://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php?topic=9675.msg210012#msg210012

Well, on the plus side Joshex seems to have found a place relatively consistent with his sensibilities.  Sort of.  On the other hand, when even 4chan refugees escaping the shackles of literacy think you're crazy, that's supposed to be a warning sign.

I'd swear NCsoft is just waiting for the right opportunity to refuse the sale, to be perfectly honest. :/

I kinda feel like they've had more than enough opportunity to do that.  Also, we're not dealing with Mr. Burns, for christ's sake.

I'm trying to imagine what the "right opportunity" might be.  Although, that's some fertile ground.

If this forum was Cheers, Joshex would be Cliff.
