I think what's funny is, I am a member of loot raiders but I was getting my pings elsewhere.

 

I did hound bogie a little in the other thread, we had a bit of back and forth and it was funny. I then ended up defending him against some real mad shit being said that even I couldn't get on board with. He can even corroborate this as he thumbed me good and proper for my replies. 

 

I only came to loot raiders because someone showed me a SS of bogies SS which egged me on some more. Now I know bogie used a screenshot of me being a prick in his final straw but I do not think he blames me for the entire fiasco. Maybe I was the last straw.

 

Anyway all jokes aside Joshua, sorry if I upset you mate, im mostly just messing about. 

 

Keep strong and plz don't fed me like the others.

 

PS air knows everything so if I go down shes coming with me xxx

Just send Julie into a more community interactive role, isn't that why she was hired? She's good with people.

I was hired primarily to be the hands-on go-to person for staff and to help proofread the content that sugarvalves puts out. Most of my work is behind the scenes so the general community won't necessarily see what I do on a day-to-day basis. 

 

I do get involved with the community, keep tabs on what's going on, lending bogie a hand, especially later in the day when the UK working day is over, but that isn't why I was hired. I'm not nearly as extroverted as bogie, which I'm sure is clear to everyone who has seen us in action at Torncon. 

 

It doesn't help to look at every incident in a vacuum. Our every action is constantly under a microscope in the community and it can get extremely exhausting, and I recognize that I don't get the hate that bogie does as the main punching bag for the playerbase. Even the most mild-tempered person would start being affected by that.

I was under the impression that he'd been swamped more back end and you would start popping up more, thanks for the clarity. You're still good with people though!

14:04:00 - 22/10/25 You looted a Bottle of Beer from Pinata

 

Damn.... lots of people bitching about free stuff when you could of gotten nothing. The pinata is helping make your gamming experience better so we don't have another shit show like last Halloween.

Ok, so part of my new shift in approach to the game is not really feeling like I have to know the scoop or even really offer input to the stuff I dont really care about, anymore. This thread is one of those things. Talk about much ado about nothing. 

 

You're lookin at it, folks.  

 

However...

 

I can't help but get hung up on this little nugget and implore my homie Typhon to elaborate just a tad, if he'd be so kind. 

 

" as he thumbed me good and proper". 

 

1- If this means in your world, what it does in mine, I think many of us would be interested in a link to the video.

 

2- I do all kinds of really cool shit in this game, and I can't even get a "Hey, good job, Mike" outta this dude, and you're over here gettin the thumb. Obvious favoritism is STILL friggin obvious!! 

 

3- You DO realize that the thumb is just a warmup for the whole hand, right?  That's what I found out the hard way heard anyway. 

 

Ok, you guys can continue now. Thats all I got.
