New CL or non-CL mage rep?
Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2010 9:16 am
It has been suggested that we mages select some kind of additional representation for our community, either by CL or some kind of less official representative. Please see Voragath's reply to the suggestion below for an explanation.
Already suggested in the HoT General discussion thread were: Eanelder, Falore, Malleria, Voragath. I'd also like to add PiemastaJ and Sued to the nominees.
So with that in mind I'd like to see people suggest names of mages they think would make a good CL/non-CL rep for the community. Those who would actually be interested in the position reply that they accept the nomination (we don't want to shove someone into the role that wouldn't have the time or inclination to do it) or PM me that they accept if they don't want to accept publicly, and then in a week or so we can throw up a poll of the top 5 nominees for a full vote (since these boards don't support more than 5 poll choices).Voragath wrote: Thanks for the vote! If you are talking CL, whoever wants to be a rep needs to put in an application. I believe they take these all the time and you have to PM Kiara. Once a year they will put out an advertisement asking for new blood. Or, we can just pick our own non-CL to be a rep. I pointed out in beta, so it's good to repeat here, that the bards for awhile (maybe still do) had this system. A CL and a non-CL both who knew a lot and had the devs' ears.
The sad thing is, to be a rep, it all comes down to time. I think that's why there were two for bards. Another problem, is that being a CL ties your hands (some, very slight, problem with why Tuli is the way he is) because you are under perma NDA so alot that you know you just can't say. I think it'd be best that we vote someone to be a non-CL mage rep. That way, they aren't bound by NDA, don't have to prostrate themselves before SOE, and can say what they want when they want. A CL will just turn our rep into a powerless yes-man. Though having another CL doesn't hurt =) (I know that sounds contradictory but it really isn't lol)
