Heyho folks, First off, I'd like to just briefly apologize for going silent on you all for the past couple of months. I'll give an explanation later if enough people would like it - this post, however, is to address and clarify some other things. From now on I'll be working as staff with Alice and Smith, primarily helping with Public Relations. What this means, is that I'll be trying to spread the word about The Black Watchmen, managing the facebook page as well as twitter, and hopefully freeing up time for Anashel and the others to focus their attention elsewhere in the process. While it's not the primary focus of the position, I will of course also engage in some Community Management, such as helping in answering questions posted here as well as the Steam forums, and the like - more or less what I've been doing all along. I'm really excited about this opportunity, so here's hoping I won't be letting neither you wonderful folks nor Anashel and the others down! In any case, glad to be back! Kind Regards, Santiak.
If I ready the easy-chair and fireplace, make some hot cocoa*, can we get the stories? *Peppermint Schnapps available upon request.
*sits down in the rocking-chair, strokes his beard that's no longer there, and opens a big, leatherbound book(let)* It's nothing big or dramatic, really. I found out that HQ was looking for new staff - more specifically, someone to take care of Agent Welfare and Civilian Contact - so I decided to apply for the position. Because of fragile state of the organisations infrastructure, I was told this would have to take place incognito, to avoid marking me as a target for potentially hostile groups wishing to disrupt our infrastructure - a wise move, in retrospect. I was taken to HQ, and underwent the necessary training there. (( The real, actual reason for me being gone for a couple of months: I went to Korea for just about 1½ months to visit my girlfriend. I didn't want to spend most of my time there lurking on IRC/Forums, but knowing people would get suspicious about where I'd gone, I gave Anashel and Jarobi a poke about my plans - and we came up with a battle-plan to explain it all. While there, I noticed A&S were looking for a Community Manager/Public Relations person, and thought I'd give it a shot - as I've enjoyed my volunteer moderator/excuse-to-rant-innanely gig on the forums thus far - and after an interview with Anashel, I was given the chance to try my hand at it. As I mentioned in the OP, it's only on a trial basis for the next couple of weeks, so if I'm suddenly not Staff anymore, here's an early warning that it wasn't due to any drama, but merely part of the contract. *rubs the bloody bandaid on his finger* ))
Welcome back @Santiak ! I knew it! So you went through an undercover training in Korea and now you are A&S staff. Nice move man, nice move I bet @Bats is also joining the ranks of A&S. That or we need to plan a rescue operation :/
