I still remember the day that I first played CoH. My friend came over and had me download the beta that he had and let me use his account. It was an amazing experience to play as a superhero of my choosing. The daythe game released, I had taken the 2 days off from work and played from 7am until 2 am and returned again at 8 am until about midnight. Truely amazing.
My friends and I spent 1000 of hours building all of our heroes up and meeting new friends that would soon form the Scorpion Alliance. This was not just a supergroup to us. This was a family. This was the online game the I first convinced my girlfriend, now my wife, to play. This game Truely did help to build our relationship to what it is today.
I will deeply miss flying around Paragon City as my Blaster, and running into door missions with all of friends and those that needed help to complete their mission. There was no better feeling in this game than seeing the words "Looking for help with my Cape Mission" and going and running it for the hundredth time, and even the 500 hundredth time.
But, the time has come that Paragon no longer has need of heroes. The city has been saved and the wrongs have been righted. I now stand atop Atlas and remove my cape. To everyone I say, "Safe Journey, Hero. May Paragon treat you well."
To the members of Scorpion Alliance, if any of you happen to read this,
Kosmico, Keso, Cobalt Blue, Legna Kard, Alex Grey, Midget Maurader, and Alora Snow, it was one hell of a ride.
