Grimwell sits on Blackguard's chair

I just found out that Grimwell ("Craig Dalrymple" says Cosmik) is at SOE as the community manager for EQ2. Wow, big grats and good luck.

I like a lot reading these kinds of news because I like to see people succeed or move toward interesting perspectives, so I'll keep registering movements in our community. Now if I was naughty I would link his previous call for independence ;p

His welcome message on EQ2 boards can be found here.

In-context I also relink and quote Lum:

Public relations people are normally great people (they kind of have to be, being that dealing with people is their job and all) but they are at direct cross-purposes from a free flow of information which is necessary if developers are to ever get honest feedback. Which is why the best community relations teams aren’t treated as PR adjuncts, but their own seperate fiefdom, where they act more as ombudsmen then salesmen.

That's quite pertinent, ain't it?

Btw, there was a lot of movement during the past year. Everyone found a good chair to sit on. This is positive, no?

Well, there's Cosmik who's looking for a new job.

Oh come on, Grimwell isn't even good! Hardly as informative, truthful or knowledgeable as Cesspit, that's for sure. Not even close. Half of the HTML on his page doesn't even work. That's about his best claim to fame, a website? Weeeeeeee! What did he ever say that I remember reading? Umm.. nothing I can recall. He's sort of the wannabe type no one ever heard of unless someone in the know referenced who he was.

Neither was Heartless for that matter, who only got popular because some hesitant Vanguard beta player needed a hideaway to vent their spleen. Even at that, he didn't have the decency to ask if he could reprint it before using it to boost his notoriety. Oh well, after scaring off the insider, that was about the last essence of fame to be found on that blog. Trust me, I heard the fallout on that one and these days, people aren't going to post revealing information on blogs that use sitemeters where everyone can access their IP number. GG, dummy! haha!

May I suggest that Cesspit take on the role of confidante because honestly, Grimwell types can be bought, right Moorgard? Not that SOE forum mod is a quantum leap of a job. I'll keep my day job, thanks!

Grimwell types can be bought, right Moorgard?

Fuck, I can be bought too.

Buy me!
