Greeting New Staff

[Sanvean]

Here's the thread to ingratiate yourself in.

[Malken]

Hello?

[Kyviantre]

*wiggles her fingers in welcome*  Evening!

[Dakkon Black]

Even if you haven't managed to start yet, you deserve appreciation for stepping up to work for our desperate addiction.

And remember, you shouldn't be sleeping anymore, but making plots.

[Nyr]

Hello, everyone.  Looking forward to metering your doses of crackageddon!

[Dalmeth]

Hello, everyone.  Looking forward to metering your doses of crackageddon!

All hail, Nyr!  Prepare the virgins!  Ready the bull for sacrifice!  We're gonna have us a party!

[Cavaticus]

Please direct all complaints to the new staff and all cookies to me.

[Yokunama]

Please direct all complaints to the new staff and all cookies to me.

Do you take those cookies on visa?

[Cegar]

Gimme phat lewt.

[mansa]

Hey,

I highly suggest to 'hide' your online status on the GDB.  You can do that in your profile section.

This prevents people from knowing -exactly when- you are online viewing the GDB.

[flurry]

Welcome!

[psionic fungus]

I'm bitter.

And I also had my post edited by Sanvean, who will be glad to answer e-mail about that if I want to mail her.

[Malken]

Well, I guess I'll edit my post out since I quoted a message that was edited out by PF.

I'm a Sad Panda, now.

[Bebop]

Wow, be nice to your kids they choose your nursing home.

Be nice to the people on the GDB, they may end up choosing your karma.

[Eukelade]

Word up.

[Dan]

So have all staff been notified and appointed? I know I am looking forward to working with some of the new folks, gratz guys and gals!

[Sanvean]

That way, I can't deduce who you used to be.

Or you could exercise some courtesy and allow the people who are volunteering to do work on your behalf some privacy.

We're waiting on the last person notified to reply, and busily bewildering them all right now.

[Dakkon Black]

When you find out it was really I who killed your last six loved chars. Please remember that here's another thing. The book can also be, a hat.

[manonfire]

Please stay away from me and my new character. I like him alive, thank you very much.

[a strange shadow]

Hi new staff,

You have my sympathies for the tortures and trials you are about to go through, and my respect for your bravery and dedication.

- Shadow, who salutes YOU, mister new-staff-member-person!

[Senga]

Hello everyone!  I'm looking forward to getting started.  I've already yawned all over a meeting due to lack of sleep.

[Jherlen]

Inspired by the post above...

Jherlen presents: Real Armageddon Heroes

Today we salute you, mister new-staff people. (Mister new-staff people)
It isn't enough to PLAY Armageddon, you take it a step further. (Climb that bone 'n leather ladder)
Filling requests, running clans, animating NPCs, you've given up YOUR time to make OUR time more fun. (Who needs a real life anyway?)
You knowingly signed on to endure the tortures of player complaints and emails, to supervise endless plots that need your attention, and try not to screw up too in the process. (Nessalin's gonna slay you!)
So crack open a nice cold can of brains, mister new staff people, and remember: now when someone tells you to find out IC, you already know.

(Mister new staff peeeeeeeeople.)




ps: plz give me karma for this

[mansa]

I know, I know, Jokes and Sarcasm don't translate well into Text.  I edited my post to remove that bit.

I still think it's a good move to 'hide' when you are online.  I do it on Facebook, and Myspace, and everything else I can.  People act differently when they know others are watching them, and that includes the online personalities that we create.

[Relleu]

Thanks for the welcomes everyone.  I'm thrilled and looking forward to helping make your time in game the best it can be.

I just have to say that in the, what, 18 hours since I got started, my already huge respect for staff and amazement at Armageddon has increased tenfold.  Make no mistake, you are playing the best MUD on the internet.

[Clamach]

Thank you all very much for the welcome.

I am looking forward to lending a hand where it is needed, giving a little nudge to plots when it is required, and all around making the best MUD there is even better.

Be advised: All your brainz are now belong to us.

You have been warned.

[Maybe42or54]

When can we start emailing them about random gripes?

(readies 10 emails)

[Cegar]

I always thought that being accepted on staff would be like getting the letter to go to Hogwarts.

[Angela Christine]

Welcome, have some brainz.






















Brainz:  the other grey meat.

[Salt Merchant]

Brainz, brainz, the magickal fruit!

They need to give us PCs tougher skulls.

Thanks to the new staff for volunteering and keeping things running.  

[Malken]

Wow, how many of you is there? I hope there's a few decent players left in the game to play with!  :shock:  :lol:

[Tisiphone]

Perhaps you could be so kind as to clue us to your sex? I have an unserendipitous talent of using the wrong gender to address staff.

[Fathi]

The last imm that helped me showed up as "its."

I don't know how to handle that.

[Gimfalisette]

I totally misread that as "tits" for a moment. And I was thinking, "Well, that -is- kind of a clue..."

[Fathi]

I totally misread that as "tits" for a moment. And I was thinking, "Well, that -is- kind of a clue..."

If I got tits every time I accidentally junked an item I would abuse the wish command.

[Ammit]

I wouldn't worry about getting people's gender wrong. I still do it

[jstorrie]

Hi, new staff. stat-upz plz

[amish overlord]

Hello new staff, don't forget to give me my magickal sword of death, was promised it. You can check with your bosses just in case!

[Maso]

I thought pretty much every staff member was male originally, don't know why. Think it was the names.

Turns out they are mostly female and got every single one wrong.

Oh. And I thought Halaster was female too.

[Nao]

Do I have to change my name now? I'm kinda worried about my brainz...

[Salt Merchant]

Turns out they are mostly female

Is this true?

[mansa]

Turns out they are mostly female

Is this true?

ArmageddonMUD has about a 1:1 ratio of Male to Female staff.

I believe that was stated in the past by the immortals.

[Xio]

Welcome to Armageddon. Just step around the groupies foaming at the mouth and past the red rope  

[Rhyden]

I'm always up for immortal intervention if you want to experiment, have nothing else to do, or feel like flexing your power.

[Tisiphone]

I second this, for myself.

"The Creation of a Staff Member"

Seven wise men with knowledge so fine, created a staffer to their design.

First was a butcher, a man of no hype, using a knife, he taught it to type.

Second a lumberjack, strong and bold, with a hammer and chisel, he gave it a soul.

Third was a tailor, tall and thin, took superpowers, and lined it within,

Fourth was an archer, short and stout, with documentation he lined it without,

Fifth was a hunterman, nasty as hell, threw in some meat and gave it a smell,

Sixth was a medic, whose name was Asgee, touched it and nodded, and said it could pee,

Last was a Bynner, the crass little runt, still couldn't figure if it had a....








Welcome on board, doods.

[naatok]

Welcome to our new Staff members.

I can't wait to see what horrid wonders you all are going to add and develop.

Have fun...and try to stay sane.  It ain't easy being immortal.
