Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere, but can someone point me to Criswolf09's (and/or others') AT and Freeform guides? Criswolf09's guides were a godsend. They used to be posted to the NPW Forums website, but it looks like they've all been deleted over the past few months.

I wonder what happened to him! Even his FF Builds were deleted

It seems Cris deleted all of his material manually and thoroughly "everywhere." That bespeaks some anger and upset. It was very useful for new and returning players who had nothing to do with whatever happened. So, thanks Cris for what you did and for while it lasted.
Take care your self and dont let other people affect you just ignore them
I did thought someone must have said something to you to cause this!
As someone with Anxiety Disorder I say take care of yourself, don't worry about it!
Don't push yourself to restore everything instantly, take your time to recover from the Shock
If you need to sic a Rooster on someone, let me know.
I managed to make new updated builds after the anxiety attack, I am doing ok now. My next project is restore the archetype guides.
Cris, some context before I make the following comment. I was a CoH guy almost from the beginning, same for Champions Online. During that time, I've never written a forum post. I'm going out of my way to write this one because of my longstanding appreciation for the game, the players, and the developers who dedicate themselves to making CO as fun and vibrant now as it was when it was released more than a decade ago. CO wouldn't be churning along today if it weren't for the remarkable efforts of some equally remarkable people. You are definitely one of those people, Cris.
I have ceaseless admiration for people who find a way to transform their passions into something helpful for others. Your guides, your player feedback on multiple forums, and your presence within the CO community have been a gift, more than you may realize. Your guides in particular were invaluable, helping new and returning players navigate CO's byzantine character creation process. I'm certain the time and effort to research and produce that content wasn't trivial.
Unfortunately, it's sometimes the curse of content creators to wonder whether their work has value, especially when it's given freely and generously. Feedback can be spare, and sometimes a single negative comment can erase the balance of the positive. That's an unfair and unequal emotional exchange for hours and hours of dedicated effort, but I'm certain the vast majority of this community doesn't take your work for granted.
Your reasons for removing your content are your own. Your life is your own. And I sincerely hope you come out the other side of what you're dealing with right now better and stronger. Take the time you need to care for yourself, first and foremost. Your research, your writing, and your support of the game will always be appreciated. If - and only if - it's in you to return at some point in the future, I'll be first in line at Ren Center to welcome you back.
Criswolf09, I'm happy you're better. I had depression and anxiety and it's a pain in the a**.
Your work is amazing, take all the time you need.
