    Re: Wierd GM behavior

    where do i sign up for a GM stalker?

    considering the obscenely low caliber of most GMs and their almost despondent attitude towards actually trying to execute their job beyond punting the customer (you, the player, are the customer to a GM) it's refreshing to see a GM who takes their job with a grain of salt and has some fun with it. having a technician on the phone crack a joke or otherwise is a wonderful way to defuse the frustration associated with the reason for the complaint in the first place, and considering the high frustration events that many GM calls are associated with, a demeanor such as this individual's is a valuable asset. assuming this GM also gets things done (which i'd honestly think is a safe assumption as they seem genuinely interested in their job) i award them my highest GM rating to date. 4 backflips!

    This is very much true, as a support technician for a line of retail stores, I can say that I've worked with good "customer service" operators and bad ones. The good ones are always able to turn the call around when the person on the other end is irate, and often this requires "coming out of your shell" that is so easy to get into when you do the same thing day in and out.

    Who was the GM from about 2-3 years ago that everyone loved.. he had a shorter name.. might have been involved with the whole Rustymetal drama.

    For some reason when people talk about wanting a GM stalker, I think of the one dialog from the Venture Brothers.

    It is nice to see a GM actually interact with people. I think that Square would be wise to let GMs interact more.

    Seemed like a good guy, met him in game and in real life a few times (the latter first). Got a few pics of him floating around my hard drive some where. Last I heard of him, was he had to change character names and deal with different servers that he normally would visit due to his popularity. This was a while back, haven't talk to him since so I'm not even sure if he still works as a GM.

    Edit: Wrong pic

    Edit#2: And he was effective. Dude was gone in 2 minutes.

    The very next day I got him again for another clamming point bot. Pretty much same as above. Awesome GM in my book.

    LOL dude :nikkei: Apessius for the PM and link. No one has seen Akydemyks say "bro" at all? Also, don't get the GMs fired by calling a GM on a GM or something, I think it's cool that they aren't like the robot GMs in the past.
