Evening, you guys. Another British veteran of CotH here, playing the game on and off for years. Currently studying history at university.

I tended to divide my time between Union and Defiant, the former of which I used to RP prolifically on and the latter of which I got my first fifty on, my present namesake. Over on Union, I was a little-more well-known under aliases like Doctor Bolt, Iron Alligator and Boneblade.

Let's build this city (possibly, but not necessarily, on rock and roll)!

Online Name: VDG

Real Name: [Redacted]

Real Life Location: [Redcated]

Server played on COH: Virtue

Great Idea.... Hello all...I am @The-Pendragon from COH global....and answered to "Pen" "Sword" ...and a few less choice words from various Miscreants...but I digress :) My primary presence in game was split between The Paragonian Knights on Virtue,. (Where I was Senior Knight Captain Emeritus) The Original SIn, also on Virtue, and the Concrete Guru's on Guardian. I am from the wonderful Pacific Northwest and thus in the Pacific Time Zone...for those who asked for that info...and I am REALLY looking forward to helping get this game off the ground. I may not have alot of cash to offer.,..but I am perfectly willing to help any way I can. I miss COH/V alot and not a day goes by that it's end is lamented in gen chats of SWTOR or other games...by not just myself.

I have been a playtester for almost 35 years...for both Pc and tabletop/RPGs. I have also dabbled in design some....though most of my published work was for the now closed Agents of Gaming...for their products Babylon 5 Wars, Fleet Action, Turning Point and Gropos/MAXIM.

I have been told I am a fairly good writer when it comes to producing story arcs and backgrounds. (HellI used to create the background either before I made the character or after completing the level up in the starter mission in COH/V) I am not sure if they need more writers...but would be willing to contribute something should the option arise.

My global handle is @schattentempler, i am a german player. i played cox since the closed beta Phase. after the beta i have done a half year break then i returned till the closed the Servers.

in the beginning i played on the german Server. later i moved many chars to the uk Servers.
at the end i got many chars on the virtue (us Server).

my hami char was a warshade called schattenskind or a blaster called full force.

i run many states and recluse tf/sf on virtue with many People and different chars.
also i run and take part in many high Level instances for the high powers.

never found a game like cox and also the great communtiy!

hope we will done the ks Quote...

'ello, 'ello,

I dipped in and out of CoH as time and fancy allowed since, uh... I totally can't recall since when. I mostly played on the Champion server since I was in America when I picked up the game, and some RL friends of mine had their SG on that server. Now I'm back in Europe and have myself more or less comfortably installed in France. I'm looking forward to playing on a European(-centric) server and avoiding timezone based antics, this time.

Hi all, pleasure to be here and all that.

I arrived in City of Heroes around Issue 6 and stayed right up until the shutdown at the end. During that time I made about 200 alts, gained 7 '50s' and met a lot of groovy friends. I attended the EU player meet several times and infamously lost a bet to dance down the streets of Birmingham with my underpants on my head when someone from NCSoft actually bothered to turn up. I helped to set up and run The Militia, possibly the longest running RP Supergroup in the UK which is still sort of running even though we've moved onto new games.

Currently I play The Secret World a lot with a bit of Neverwinter thrown in at times. I am a writer currently editing my first novel which was certainly inspired by some of the characters I created in City of Heroes. I saw the Kickstarter campaign begin and decided that I would overcome my usual skepticism and come join the party given the amazing work that the people here have done in one year. Hope to see you all in the new city. :)

Hi! My old global was also Grouchybeast, and I played almost entirely on Defiant. Characters I teamed on reasonably often enough someone might have noticed them were Ellie Mintal (Fire/Ice blaster), Grouchybeast (Rad/Rad defender), Purple Phase (Claws/Elec scrapper), Cocktail Companion (Sonic/Ice and later on Water/Ice defender) and Bubblegun (FF/Dual Pistols Defender). I did badge-hunt and solo a lot, but I also did a lot of Incarnate Trials, and speed ITFs with Phil.

{waves to Dante}

Hey,

My global in CoX was @jh2. Some of the characters I played most were Kitty Klaw, Dielectrix, Ouva D'Ombra and at the very end there was Dooomm!

My name's Escalus, Esc for short. Union was my home, and from time to time Defiant. A founder member of the Dirty Handprints, and later the Clean Handprints, I DJ'd on Rogues Radio before it closed, now I'm on Regen Radio, which rose from the ashes of Rogues and is still going, even without a City of Heroes to unite us, and the truth is I miss flying!

I've tried Secret World and SW:TOR and they're great but not what I'm really after. I grew up with X-Men, and Spider-Man, and JLA and the rest and there will always be a superhero inside me, yearning to break free. I've made my pledge, and I hope to fly again!

Soul Storm reporting for duty! I'm a proud resident of the Union server that was, involved with the Zero Strykers SG and founder of the Union Taskforce Channel. Looking forward to fighting crime on the streets of Titan!

Hi All @MissFreeze here from Defiant. Pretty sure I teamed with Ellie Mintal (Grouchy Beast) a few times. Tended to play with the guys and gals from Infernal Justice - Sargatanas organized most events and it was always Mereman's fault! (even met Mereman in real life at the Birmigham player meet)

Players joined us from all over including Defcon Kid, Jay Leon Hart, Evangel, Knightly, Rackenspear, Juniper and Endymion, Quartsite and Mediscales, Lord Arcane to name but a few .....good times, good times.

Hi all, yet another Unionite stumbling in. Played CoH on and off from launch, over various accounts (ahh, the joys of Multi-boxing with an army of Imps!) with far too many alts to name.

Tried alternative mmo's, never found one that I could settle into. Looking forward to donning the mask/cape again :)

Hi all :-) I was wondering around the forums to see where I could at least stop in and say "hello" and I finally found it here :-) ****waves****

I'm from the Northeast region of the U.S. I played CoH from April of 2007 until the end and pretty much stayed on Pinnacle Server. I know I'm probably not posting this in the correct section, but did not see one for the East Coast, so I hope you all do not mind that I am posting here.

I know 2015 seems a long ways off, but it's already been a year since our game was yanked away, so I feel that the time will fly by, hopefully we'll see some trailers along the way showing us what we could potentially receive on release, while we wait :-)

Hi.
I'm Ashington. I was playing CoX since City of Villains.....and played even after the fusion of the games rarly any Heroes. I'm from Germany (So please excuse my grammar) and played on the server Zukunft. I met my first real friends there who are to this day my friends and will remember these games always with fond memories. I Hope we can all Help MWM to rebuild the COX feeling of the past and that we will all have a great Time here.

Good day to you all. Stutty here, proudly bearing the Eurocore banner from back in the day [post the original custard and old mold colo(u)rs.]

Like teh Minotaur, I was playing from Germany on the US server Victory around about a year before and after CoV release.

My first char was a Grav/Bubbler named Quantum G. It's hard for me think about playing with Eurocore and not smiling. So many good times.

Where o' where are you CWR? Prom Star?

stutt

Introduce myself? but I have a secret I.D. If anyone knew who I was my many foes would take revenge on me through the people I love!

Hello folks! I played on the Union server from European launch.

My blue-side characters included [b]Doctor Bindweed[/b] (Plant/Rad controller), [b]Firearm[/b] (Fire/Fire blaster), [b]Columbia[/b] (Inv/WP tanker), [b]Gingersnap[/b] (Fire/Kin controller), [b]Celestial Shadow[/b] (WS) and [b]Astraea[/b] (PB). My MA/Regen scrapper, [b]Liberty Girl[/b], was in the [b]Unity Vigil[/b] SG, and my Ice/Storm 'troller [b]Hyperborea[/b] in [b]The Militia[/b].

Red-side, my bad guys included [b]Sharappu[/b] (MM with zombies), [b]Leatherette[/b] (Mind/Psi Dominator), and [b]Allatu[/b] (Fire/Dark Corruptor). My pair of brutes, [b]Bambi Delight[/b] and [b]Lulu Laine[/b] were in [b]The Cadre[/b].

I also had alts on Defiant and Virtue, but never really gave them much love. I'm looking forward to catching up with as many people as I can when CoT goes live - see you in the city!

Heya all, I am Goodness from the union server, though i played freedom a lot as well, due to my serious altitis haha.
I played for about 3 years roughly, joining later than most but will never forget how welcoming everyone was!!

I had many toons but you may know my mains, Fairness, Goodness and Power of Love from many servers collectively
have been out in the wilderness for a couple of years, never really found an mmo to fill the hole in my soul left by COH, to me the community and especially the zero strykers were great, really looking forward to playing with you all on COT

From the USA, California specifically. A long time ago, I think even before I discovered WoW I was introduced to City of Heroes by my Uncle. I was absolutely floored by the game. Before that I wasn't even aware that online games existed. My Uncle let me create my own character in the game. I don't remember the exact reason as to why but I named the character ''Belly Dancer'', if I remember correctly she was red head with just your standard spandex. I recall her being a Fire/Psi blaster. Since it was my first time playing a game like this I was absolutely confused initially. My Uncle left me alone for that time so I had no one to help me. I noticed a player (I think he was a defender or a tanker, I don't exactly recall) and asked for help. I soon discovered my first aspect that I loved about CoH.

It had a good, helpful community. The player took me under his/her wing and explained to me how certain things worked that I didn't already pick up on. I was a fast learner so eventually he/she got me out of the tutorial zone pretty fast. After we got out of there he/she decided to show me the teaming feature at a larger scale. I don't recall if he/she decided to invite some friends or if they just gathered up people from global chat but eventually the team was a lot bigger then just us two. I discovered soon after that that I loved the teaming feature. Eventually my Uncle came back and he explained (through my character) that the person playing the game and interacting with this team was his young nephew. Unfortunately that meant that I had to leave (and I was pretty heartbroken about that fact because I was a whole lot younger and I thought I would never get a chance to enjoy the game again). My dad eventually heard about this through the family grape vine at some point and he gifted with City of Villains for Christmas (and eventually later on he bought me City of Heroes to complete it).

I fell in love with the mastermind archetype. My first character that I put time into was named Fathom, she was a Ninja/Forcefield mastermind. At one point I remember getting into a supergroup that consisted of family and friends and I had a lot of fun there. I remember one specific person in that supergroup being an ice corrupter or dominator. She was a very nice person and she had a husband and a son whom I played Strike Forces with routinely. Unfortunately at a certain point (this was about time when the enconomy of America started to go through a recession and my dad unfortunately lost his job)I had to leave again. I never was able to say goodbye to the people in that supergroup and unfortunately by the time I came back it was either disbanded or I was kicked out, that ice corrupter/dominator was still in my friends list though but I still never saw her again. Fathom unfortunately never got used again after that and the server I was on was sparsely populated at that point. She was level 39 by that time

After that I switched to one of the more populated servers. I created a zombie/dark mastermind named Captain Zombie Bones (I really should of remade this guy, not only did his name kind of suck but weather control secondary would of fit him so much better). I played him till Level 50 (I hit cap at exactly the right time too. Widows and Soldier epic archetypes just came out by that time). He was quite fun. After that I decided to play an Illusionist/Weather Controller up until 50 on the heroes side to unlock the Warshades and Peacebringers, her name was Glimmer (I remade her in one of the superhero customization threads). Eventually I did and I took a Warshade, a Crab Spider, and a Night Widow up to level 50 after that (I can't recall there names).

By that time MA was just about to come out. Again I had to leave for personal reasons. After that I was a drifter from MMO to MMO. I was playing WoW on and off since my early CoH days but I soon lost interest after Cataclysm. I played Champions, DCUO, GW2, Secret World, Wildstar, and a few other MMOs in that time period. None of them gave me the same joy as CoV (Wildstar came pretty close but unfortunately it passed as there was nothing to do once I hit level cap other then take an alt through the same content. I hated Guild Wars 2 PvE content and I dislike PvP in general despite how I ironically seemed to be good at it so I left that MMO eventually as well).

Unfortunately I discovered right after I left GW2 and right before I set my eyes on Wildstar that CoH shutdown. I was really saddened by that and I never quite forgave NCSoft for it (and I doubt I ever will). Just an FYI I was 9 or 10 years old when I first played CoH I am 17 now so I would still be considered a young kid by most.

The only other notable information I can give is that I have been an admin of a few groups and a fan forum moderator before. It was not very fun I can tell you that much and it has jaded me towards some of the more unruly and troll worthy ''members'' of the communities I have abandoned under my own choice (usually those groups and forums were becoming ghost towns anyway by the time I left). I have seen a lot of communities get torn apart unfortunately (a recent one was Wildstar and GW2 getting constantly bombarded and torn up by doomsayers and trolls) which was a sharp contrast to my CoH days on the forums and in-game.

So yeah I have my off days at times....
