Also I want to make it clear I cannot belong to any House (nor Clan, clever readers).

I do, however, accept bribes.

He's from Vancouver, I'm guessing it's more of the herbal variety.

Hello Garth, cheers and greetings from Southeast Asia!

What I really want to know is how tolerant you are of Lord of the Rings/My Little Pony/First Somerset Strikers crossovers. This is the burning question I have in my heart.

...no, not really. I'm just glad to see our first mod. I promise to be good.

That should be obvious.

Cupcakes.

I actually am rather partial to cupcakes, though I am more of a Pie than Cake person, depending on what the flavours are.

I played the tabletop when I was younger, but every single person I knew played Warhammer 40k, so I fell out of it due to no-one to game with :lol:


That's a pity. Anyway, have you playied Wh40k?

Hey Garth, couple of questions.
  • Did you come to the community managerrole from another company or from another role within Piranha Games?
  • How long have you been involved in community for?
  • what would you say are the key skills for a good community manager?
  • When additional CM roles become available will this be something posted externally so the public can apply, or will all candidates be internal promotions/postings?
  • Will you be using a MVP/Helpful player system such as World of Warcraft's MVP system?
  • Are staff always going to use their real names or will you also adopt alias's?
Sorry if the questions are a bit personal, looking at a career in community myself and any information is helpful.
