Comments on: Back from ION: Recapping the Rant http://www.mobhunter.com/?p=225 A delicate blend of sarcasm and spite.

I'm glad I was able to attend. They covered lots of good topics. Of course I imagine any panel with Craig, Victor, Katie, and Meghan on it would be worth going out of your way for. :p It was a great panel too! I’m glad I was able to attend.

I'm sorry I missed the panel! Attending ION only reconfirmed my belief that who oversees a community (or any online world) is as vital as who builds it and who inhabits it. You can build a school and stock it with the best technology, but it would go to waste if you put a rotten teacher in charge of your class -- or if you had a good teacher who was underpaid, under-appreciated, and overwhelmed by the number of students they had to watch over...

We do take a lot of crap, but we don't take it personal. The day we do is the day we lose our jobs. It's not the community people that suck. It's the upper management that doesn't have a clue how to use their community people that suck. That's the key.

I just happened to find your blog doing an "mmo" search on technorati and I thought the name "moorgard" sounded familiar. I've been playing mmo's all the way back the original EQ, even before the Planes of Power expansion. Good to see that you have escaped SOE's clutches! I've not forgiven them since the SWG debacle >< Grats to you on moving up in this industry! You've come a long way from mobhunter man, game design has got to be much more rewarding than community relations! Good luck to you at 38 studios and whatever it is you guys have cooking up there. I'm anxious to see what it is and will surely be covering it on <a href="http://textwall.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">my new blog</a>. /peace Hey!

Thing was, you were really good at it. I never played any of the games you had to shill for, but I noticed. Here's hoping you get to keep your job for a while. :) I really wish you the best in your job at 38, Steve, if nothing but for adding you to the list of really talented bee-eaters who can now talk about just how bad they were getting arseficked while they were working for The Man.
