Considering the whinyness of a small contingent of the community, I can't imagine an amount of money that would be enough...

Greets Luna - saw you in GC last night. o/

New posts coming so quickly I think the light from my screen got red-shifted.

Anyways - good luck in your new role - I look forward to seeing what ideas you have and what impact they might have on us lot.

There's always one isn't there? Wink

If I had to hazard a guess though I'd say no - Community Manager in Illy is not currently a paid position - the same as the artistic and storywriting roles currently occupied.

Hey Luna- you've taken a hard and painful position...... my condolences....
Ha, just kidding. We're not too bad, although you need to be careful with Lawn. He's clinically insane.

So she had to quit the game AND she doesn't even get paid? I'd demand compensation for all my hard work gone. =P

I think a good majority of players here would quit the game and work for free for the illyriad development team.  I wouldn't, but a few would.

Indeed Kur.

Illy is an exciting project. It is exciting to play but I imagine it would be even more interesting to be REALLY involved in shaping the game.

Though I'm sure the more analytical players among us are most likely to want to work on a game like this (or even be part of the team), it also occurs to me that the same itchingly creative folk might also become quickly bored and frustrated with the restrictions of the existing roadmap and vision, and project boredom would ensue when they find themselves working on unrelated detail in the project, and having to iron out every foible before their changes were pushed live.

In game development, coming up with the original idea is just 2% of the work. Posting in the Suggestions forum comes with the luxury of not having to do the other 98%! :o)
