We talked about the bad let's talk about the good

Gonna jump on the bandwagon here.
The reason I have played on CoA longer than ANY other game ever (8 years running)
-People people people. The RP of this server is just superb and keeps me coming back all the time.
-People again, I like interacting with the various flavours of character from that wildly violent Ilmatari to the soft spoken Banite.
-Changes to the system. Lumomancer? New Areas? Supported Langauges? Dot Commands?! The list goes on, thank you DMs for all those hours coding.
-Friendly attitude of the server. New to Arabel? Here we'll show you around and do a quest or two, here enjoy some backstory and/or conversation.Things that Get on my nerves
-Not much, generaly just when you get looked down on for not being part of plots or have visions of grandear(spelling, I know)
-PvP -
e-girls and ponies.

Yeah that COA is a community, is I think one of its best features and communities like this really don't exist with most games. This is why I still play here after the best part of a decade. I think Neverwinter, through COA, must be the game I have played the most.

DMs and devs who have great senses of humour. The Monty Python reference in Jarnek's quest, the Princess Bride references in the treasure hunt quest, and does anyone else remember "Bubba" in the slums? Funny stuff!
But, yes, most of all its the player base. Great people, fun both in and out of character.
-
Don't forget the Father Ted reference on the "Craggy Island" quest. :D
-
Are there any NPCS whose names aren't pop culture references?
-
Yeah I like all the comical references in a lot of quests as well, something else which makes this server unique and adds to its variety and richness.
-
Immersea Treasure Hunt's innumerable Princess Bride references make me warm and fuzzy on the inside.
One point I forgot to list as a favorite: the DMs' willingness to listen to all our inane, bizarre, and otherwordly application proposals.

Miss I.Diot and her fey quest… (Irene Diot, though I m not sure that was done on purpose...)

I'll never see her the same way anymore :(

Dms.
Time.Unfortunately I have none of the latter.

7 years worth of good memories. I would make an extensive list but everything else has already been said.
