burdenday Trustee Level 14 Destroyer Posts: 1078	Well met, Passive-ist, I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce you to a new group, which will exist as of 16 July 2008, outside the realms of Order and Chaos whose members will be making the early lives of Shoats much easier. These are the Stewards. Stewards are players who volunteer their time, patience and sanity to assist new players getting acquainted with PMOG, and also help to ensure the Community Standards and Expectations are being upheld. They are entrusted with some abilities above and beyond the normal PMOG citizen, including the ability to close threads, or remove inappropriate comments from missions. For example, if a Steward comes across an especially helpful post in the forum, they can pin it. Conversely, if they come across an especially unhelpful, hate-filled post in the forum, they can lock it until a Trustee can further address the issue. Stewards not admins, and should not be viewed as such. Complaints, general help requests, feedback for the developers, reports of abuse, and so forth should still be directed to the normal avenues of communication. Instead, Stewards should be seen as community representatives who have demonstrated a knowledge, dedication and willingness to further better our community. You will be able to identify someone as a Steward by the designation that will appear on their profile or beneath their name on messages they post on the forums. For the time being, becoming a Steward is a closed invitation-only process carefully considered by GameLayers. The Stewards report directly to Joe (@burdenday) Wagner, PMOG's Player Support Liaison. Any/all future concerns regarding a specific Steward should be addressed to @burdenday and will be kept in confidence. Please join me in welcoming the "first five" Stewards: pixielo lehall chetyre salmontickler emberdione Please use this thread to express your comments, concerns, congratulations or questions. Or, if you'd prefer, you can PMail me directly, or e-mail feedback at pmog dot com. Welcome, Stewards! Yours, Joe @burdenday by burdenday 5 months ago \| Permalink

nieman Level 20 Destroyer Posts: 1212	Awesome. A good community presence for the street-level tidbits that inevitable arise helps out a lot, overall, in other communities I've been part of... and I'm sure PMOG will benefit all the same. by nieman 5 months ago \| Permalink

theeconomist Level 20 Destroyer Posts: 177	Would it be too much to ask that it be a convention of stewards to lock threads marked "[CLOSED]" by their creators? by theeconomist 5 months ago \| Permalink

shyiskhar Steward Level 19 Destroyer Posts: 2112	This thread has way too much awesomeness. Can it handle it?! I think not. Things are gonna spread and then there'll be trouble. Also, Congrats Steward people. They appear to be good choices as well. The word Steward makes me think of Lord of the rings. Lets not find any silmarillions in any of your towers. Thank you. by shyiskhar 5 months ago \| Permalink

kidsphoenixx Level 8 Benefactor Posts: 7	Isn't the human mind funny.....when I read the word "Steward", my first thought was " horse racing" LOL ( Don't ask me why, I've never even bet on the Melbourne Cup!)

torchfire Level 12 Destroyer Posts: 100	It appears to me that congrats are in order for Chava. I don't see other mention of it, however his avatar among the forums is showing Steward status. Congrats Chava. by torchfire 2 months ago \| Permalink
