Greetings, Sharpie, with all due respect paid. First off, I would like to congratulate you upon returning to post. Though I haven't met you before I do hope you will be a good AK to everyone's benefit. I hope so too Secondly, in addition to NH you have decided to take UC&G as well. As far as I know, and from my own personal experience, it is VERY hard to monitor an unofficial contest or game because of its nature- unofficial, and because every now and then a sensitive in-game statement may turn the whole place into a smoking crater. As a new enforcer, what do you have to say for yourself and for the sub-forum? Well, I'm quite used to dealing with trouble. As a former AK of Clans, despite the fact that people here don't want me bringing that up, I gained quite a bit of experience dealing with problem posts, spamming, and flaming. I understand that this place functions differently and so I'm going to take everything in stride. Rule-breaking clearly happens to a lesser extent here and so I don't want to pop in and be a harsh enforcer when that approach isn't needed. I understand that UCaG is a small community and so I'll be looking to eagle88 and BlackPhoenix for guidance at first so as to make sure I don't overstep my bounds or fail to uphold my duties. Aside from that I'm looking forward to this new experience, and I'm eager to become a part of this tight knit community. Thirdly, I have seen that AEF has experienced quite a few bans lately, some of which I found the reason to be obscure. As an AK, do you feel that there are some people who shouldn't have been banned, but were punished anyways? Unfortunately, I'm not aware of what AEF stands for. I'm assuming it's a game, but without being able to look at the source of evidence for the bans I'm unable to speak on behalf of whether the reasons were appropriate. I feel that at times reasons are questionable, but if a ban is placed on someone be it at someone else's discretion I'm not going to call their authority or judgment into question in the public eye. I'd also like to point out that while I may feel something is or isn't a bannable offense a moderator may see it the other way and I'll follow their lead, especially if its eagle88 since he is the person I report to. Fourthly, do you feel that there is too much lack of balance going around the L&L or Art Gallery sub-forums? That new authors/artists rarely got a chance to prove themselves? I know this is a bit off topic, but as a NH AK you should have your own opinion about this. Because of that, I ask you this. Honestly, I'm unaware of such balance issues regarding the L&L or Art Gallery sub-forums. While this is problematic the best I can do is talk to the Head Mod/AKs of the specific forum. In regards to Newbie Help it isn't my job to regulate other forum polices. My task in NH is to guide new members in the way of the forum and teach them the basics of how to use the AE forum. If there is truly an issue with the previously mentioned forums it would be best to bring this to light in Forum Issues so that the members may interact with the moderating staff and voice any complaints they may have. Fifthly, it is always my concern how enthusiastic AKs are in office, how dedicated you are in keeping the place clean, how efficiently and appropriately can you uphold the laws. Over a scale of 10, could you rate yourself? Real life is always my primary concern, as such when I am able to I dedicate myself fully to the task at hand. I plan on upholding the rules to the fullest extent and I won't be making exceptions for anyone. This does not mean I'm perfect, I'm in fact far from it but I do my job to the best of my abilities. On a scale of 10, 10 being the best I would rate myself a 7.5 to an 8. After all, there is always room for improvement. In the end, I feel this is getting a lot like a formal interview with an important official, so... to make sure I don't spoil everyone else's fun, I would stop here. I wish you a good day and a good new office term. I hope I answered your questions to the fullest extent possible. If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask. Battle on! Artix von Krieger's Devout Apostle.
