Domo Backpack ate my head....
Crazy adventures in this world we call, GAIA.
Some News
Hello again,

First, to comment on a few comments posted in the last entry.
sephirothgal - reason why I don't only allow people on my friend's list to send me PMs is because, if you all remember that complaint set forth by a user to a Moderator? Well thats the reason...I don't want another one like that to happen. Yes, we're Moderators but isn't it obvious to always PM an ONLINE Moderator?

Right now I'm sitting in front of the computer at work typing you this. Bored out of my wits. I'm avoiding Gaia Online due to its high activity of stress that all staff members of Gaia Online experience. If you haven't done so yet, I ask that everyone read VO's latest Journal Entry. That explains the daily routines of an Admin...the person every new and old user always get angry at. Same goes with Moderators, people tend to get too passionate of what they do here. Another reminder that Gaia Online is still in Alpha Testing stages...border lining Beta? Can't say until its announced at the Announcement Forum.

Here is what I'm working on while I'm HIDDEN.

Arwen's To Do List
  • Clean & Reorganize Barton Town Forums/Subforums
  • Clean & Reorganize Military/Organization Guilds subforum
  • Finish the Interview with a User for the Gaia Times Newspaper
  • Approve Art Work in the Art Arena
  • Revisit old hacking Cases
  • Answer my ever growing Inbox of PMs
  • Clean Ragnarok Online Forum
  • Create a Sticky for the Ragnarok Online Forum
  • Clean out the Series-related/Miscellaneous Role Play subforum
  • Finish Avatar Art (only a select few)
  • Rewrite a New Barton Town Rules & Guidelines
  • Enforce Tougher Rules for Repeat Topics in Barton Town Forums
  • Reorganize Donation Letter FAQ Thread in Q&F

So much to do...

I hope your getting enough time to do everything and still have some time to yourself to unwind. Make sure you take some down time so you don't burn out.

Like she said.

I think what users don't realize is that they have the freedom to take a break whenever they want. What they don't realize is that the mods and admins have taken on responsibilities that demand more attention.

I read VO's entry. I feel guilty for it, because I know that there wouldn't be so much focus on these new features or scrutiny, if it weren't for threads like the BST calling attention to themselves.

My only hope is that somehow - in the end - everyone has fun, and people can appreciate the work everyone puts in.

The staff sure does take a beating around here. I wish I could send you all cookies and kittens for warm fuzzy feelings! crying

Take care, Arwen.

Mmm~ I've still seen them do it, and personally, I don't see why people get so bitchy if you're not even visible @@; Ugh, poor Arwen . . .

I can't wait to see your new RO sticky. As for cleaning . . . >.>; Too bad I don't play RO much anymore, or I'd go there and give you less work ~.~ I mostly swamp Para with sig reports nowadays . . . <.<
