    Welcome! Congratulations! And sympathies on your new position. :p
    I think most of us are thrilled that the team has added such an important (to us the players) position. Could you possible give us a description of what we can bug you about? I think it would be helpful if you could educate us on what you can and cannot do.

    Thank you for your bravery!




    Thank you very much! :)
    At the moment, I can speak with you on various issues. I am unable to speak on the status of bug reports, and I would kindly ask that people refrain asking me on a status of a bug report. I will be posting on social media various relevant announcements, but I will not leak any information before it is readily available.
    Please make sure that UOForums is the first place that you post all relevant information about UO we are tired of being the last to know..

    This is the OFFICAL FORUM of UO and is owned by UO so it should be the first place to post and the first place people come to read about UO along with UO.COM.

    Dude, calm down and relax. No reason to act up like a prima donna, just because your favored channel of communications was put second. Both posts (here and on facebook) were made on the same day. What big difference does it make, if one was made a little bit earlier than the other?

    Welcome  Those other platforms are fine but this should always be your first place to post and please make sure that any discussions on other platforms are linked here.  Will you be allowed to post to UO Stratics?

    Thank you. I will not be on Stratics.
    Am I reading this right? The community manager will NOT be on Stratics? 

    That would be pretty ironic if the UO Community Manager is NOT going to be on the "official" UO community platform.

    Welcome aboard! This statement is a huge miss in my opinion. A community Manager is an outreach position that communicates with the community where they are and in their spaces.

    The key word being outreach. It would be nice to see the professional team bury the hatchet and focus on building the overall community engagement.

    Stratics and Reddit have a lot of engagement from players. Let's hope this is realized at some point because it's important to engage with all of UO. FB and X are small for UO's engagements compared to both of these other platforms.

    On weekly basis, r/UltimaOnline has a post about a returning player to the game asking how to get started or where to go. It would be awesome if we could see more official developers/CM's helping players get started again in UO.

    Ya. I told you that before he answered questions.  UO has been secretive for 26 years. Not going to change any more than Frodo will.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Stratics lost that status when these forums opened. 

    Been years now.

    This is the official forum.

    I think he's in enough places, posting on Stratics is really not necessary when you have me! :)

    LOL all kidding aside, it's really not a big deal, he's got his hands full with where he's posting already, I think the information flow is excellent and there are plenty of people who will convey information on Stratics.

    The fact that we have someone doing this again is awesome.

    Stratics hosts both methods and resources for stealing Electronic Arts intellectual property.

    It would be kind of odd for an official EA rep to be interacting with the very site that promotes theft from EA.

    Stratics ownership made their decisions when they brought back that section of the website. Those decisions have consequences.

    What's this with bug reports?

    You're here to follow up on bug reports posted to the forum, but you can't speak on the status of bug reports?

    What the hell does that even mean? My CorpSpeak Etiquette skill is low.

    They were NOT made on the same day and how many times does stuff get posted to other places long before it get posted here and sometimes it never does.  We are tired of being the bastard step child.

    DAoC DEVs/Employees are only allowed to post on their official forum so I would think that would also apply to UOs employees

    I hope you will give strong consideration to also setting up a Mastodon account on the mstdn.games server, as EM Lyraa did. Join the fediverse! It’s a pretty cool place with a lot of interesting people. The vast majority of people are much more mellow and pleasant in their posting than you find on places like X and Meta.  It would also help UO get more exposure outside the U.S.

    Right becuase doing what we have always done works great! 

    Look in this day and age its not the "Communities" job to come to you. You will be waiting for a long time. A successful company engages their community where they are at and spend their time. Wherever that might be and without judgement. 

    We all loved and grew into UO because of the cutting edge nature of the evolution in the engagement from year to year. Let's open the doors on engagement in a cutting edge way. A community manager is a great step. Encouraging them to engage with the UO community where ever they might exist, now that is getting into cutting the edge. Done properly it could also drive more engagement on whatever main site the UO team would like to focus on. Win-Win. 

    It's just not that hard or time consuming. It does take some initiative and strategic steps.

    I never said I agree with it I just stated BS/DAoC policy and as UO is part of BS I would assume that they have the same rules.

    Eh, maybe not so much when you look at this forum and Stratics or reddit. There are also Facebook groups that require you to request to join, have rules about what you can post, and are policed to varying degrees by moderators. But I get your point that the UO and DAOC official Facebook pages aren’t quite like the forums we might think of. But EA/BS have maintained those pages for quite a few years now and the various people who have done that work do once in a blue moon actually reply to comments that people make.
