Right then, first off thanks to everyone that voted for me - pleasantly surprised by the support. Coming into this post on such short notice I obviously didn't have much of a grand vision, since I am essentially filling in after Blaze who had to step down due to personal circumstances. Due to the nature of this, I am putting myself out there as a malleable sort of figure - if anybody has any suggestions please come forth. Below is a brief list of my main purposes, obviously up for change and addendums:
1. Provide assistance to the moderation team in managing the forums. There is a particular need for vigilance due to the nature of recent drama and personal conflicts, but also of a human-focused approach to solving those issues - I will make sure to scope out both sides and look beyond just the arguments at hand.
2. Be a source of tangible aid to hosts of competitive events throughout the next two months within the community. I am leaving this intentially ambiguous so please understand that I am perfectly willing to provide help with most everything, this includes but is not limited to: giving ideas, opinions, writing out blobs of text, boring admin work, refereeing, providing servers and anything else that comes to mind. If you hesitate in any way just contact me and we can work something out.
3. Be the mouthpiece for any ideas that people may have, whether for the forum or for the community, please come to me and I will make sure either I consider it or the relevant people at the top discuss it. Any projects of mine will be posted here in this thread, further down the line.
As I've already mentioned, for the start at least, my intention is to be more reactive than proactive since I assume this role so quickly and would like to see what the community trends are like in terms of demand. This is why it is vital that people let me know what's up and anything that I can help with I am willing to pour a lot of effort into. I believe the integrity and longevity of the competitive community is especially important so any requests should head this way. I place my Steam contact details below, or you can PM me here.
