My Proposal:
Okay, I have been thinking after reading about the CoH refunds, and letting my own brain chew on this whole situation. This is what it spat out.
I don't want a refund. I want my game back, with all you goofy, zany creative people in it. I want my game back, period.
AP 33 showed I am not alone in this feeling, and other events have shown me that as a community we can move mountains if needed.
We need something really huge, and an idea hit.... a street dance.
Hear me out, a street dance in EVERY Atlas Park in EVERY server in this game. This game transcends one server, and so should the events. Imagine every server spawning multiple AP's with heroes dancing and showing support of the game we love. We have the entertainment in streaming radio stations already in place like The Cape and AFKRadio, we have the servers and we have the people. Lets pack the servers! Show NCSoft what Heroes can do. Maybe it's an impossible feat, but no one thought we could spawn 33 Atlas Parks in Virtue, either.
Now I ask, are you all ready to make some real noise?
This may seem like a redux of Tony V's idea, and it is, but larger. Yes people are dropping out, but a whole group of people were not heard due to status, no toons made, what have you... this is a day long event. I have spoken to BLU of AFKRadio.com and he and WB are ready and willing to stream music for the day long event, and set up music longer if need be. I am not delusional in thinking this is going to change anyone's mind. I just want to give the disheartened a shot in the arm. BLU and I did this on a smaller scale on Guardian one evening... we created two aspects of Pocket D. after only a week of advertising. Multiple aspects AP on Multiple Servers, all dancing to a choice of streaming music and supporting CoH. I think it is just the thing we need to show we aren't wavering, not faltering, and that we have not given up hope.
