Has anyone else been following this?
Short version is some fans have got a fully functional server running with up to 4000 people playing concurrently. I'm going to try getting it running tonight.

Re: City of Heroes
Yeah I've been following it since news broke about the private server last month.
There are currently 5 Homecoming servers that can host up to 2000 players each playing actively, and most are usually filled up.
Then there's the Coxg, the Redit, the Virtue, and I know I'm forgetting one but they are all up and running and can host about 1500 each.
The homecoming team just became an LLC on their way to becoming a non-profit and are able to take donations for the servers. This months bill came to $7000+, They reached it in 20 minutes.
As with anything else that deals with people and the internet, there is drama. I am trying like hell to stay out of everything and not pick sides and just play my game.
More info can be found at the Homecoming forums:

The installers for the game can be found at:
PC - http://patch.savecoh.com/tequila.exe
Mac - http://ir.powermad.net/islandrum-mac.zip
You will need to make a forum account on the Save CoH forum (https://score.savecoh.com/) and then a game account (located at https://score.savecoh.com/account

Re: City of Heroes
Incredibly, they closed down the donation link once their initial goal was met. Possibly because they need to stay non-profit.
I've been playing on Excelsior and got each of my kids an account as well. Getting registered was easy and their instructions are quite clear.

Re: City of Heroes
Go ahead and add my global as well, I'm @Sentai Shadow on the Homecoming servers.
I'll admit I've been in-game far more than many people would find "healthy". They can STFU and MYOB. LOL
I'm loving the return of it. There are more servers coming out soon, I believe.
Excel is good. I believe that Positive Gamer YouTube guy makes his home there and runs an SG.
From what I hear, unless you're into it, I'd stay away from the 4chan server. Just have not heard... ANYTHING... good about that community. Very Toxic.

I got to play with my 2 kids in a group last night. Let's just say tanking for a pair of 10 year old blasters is quite challenging
