Breaking News. This Just In...


The lamest protest ever Posted by Hello

Paragon City Hall was the scene of what would have to be the lamest, and worst organised protest in history. Tens of "superheroes" gathered around the city representative in a horrible attempt to get the devs to upload the test version of the Issue 2 update for City of Heroes. When asked about the disturbance City Representative Norman Kozlowski said "I don't fucking know...something stupid like "give us our fucking capes" or something." Chilling.

As the photo depicts these heroes attempted to bog down the server so badly that, well, I don't frigging know what they were hoping for. In a strange bit of irony, these same protestors that wanted the issue update so badly, failed to realise that it would only download as they were closing out their session thereby rendering their protest an even bigger waste of time than it initially would have been.

We questioned of of the heroes who had only this to say, "I just want my eyes sparkly...is that so much to ask?" As the masses, if you can call 30 heroes in a room that, started to thin the protestors broke down into an argument over what could be considered "early in the week." One group said that today was the last day that could be considered early, since wednesday was halfway through the week. Others said that thursday would be. Heroes at each others throats like rabid fanboys. Disturbing.

Also amongst the discussion was the threat of the protestors being "banned". At the merest mention of the highest curse they could conceive of the group started to disperse quickly and all powers were shut off for several minutes. Even a random Gravity Singularity was quoted as saying "fuck that...i'm not getting banned for this." and quickly left this plane of existence. Sheer mayhem. This reporter was lucky to get out of this protest alive. For the Bullshit News Network, this is Mikey V returning to my quiet home away from these fucktards.

Oh, and for the record...the lunchbox in the front of the shot is my wife's character...
