Overview

UniqueDragon was a player who made one very unusual post on the City of Heroes forums. UniqueDragon was apparently very worried that many of the various exploits that have happened in games like Everquest, would be repeated in City of Heroes. Because of the unique grammar of the message and its panicked tone, the amount of replies quickly grew. The massive response and the fact that UniqueDragon did not post again for many years led to the post becoming a notorious and well known part of the Official Forums. In 2005, UniqueDragon was voted "Favorite Board Newbie" and his thread received "Best All Time Board Thread."
