New Manager

If support were the case you would've made him Asst. Manager instead of giving him equal say to Storm. Thor has final say, but so does Storm. That shouldn't be the way it is.

Don't downplay what this really is. It's insulting.

I'm not downplaying anything. I agree that one should be able to override the other, but that doesn't mean the view is shared by everyone. I am not ashamed to even share my final post on the topic in the Global Forum:

He stays there = fit's, too. I, too, am not entirely thrilled about demoting Storm, but he'd have to understand that it's not a removal from the overall ManageMENT. They have their differences, but I don't see it getting TOO out of hand if Thor were to join Storm in this form, and I doubt Thor would be heartless enough to exercise his immediate right to remove Storm and appoint another Co-Manager.

I think what we have to keep in mind is that there is going to be fits no matter what we decide, but the level of fit differs from choice to choice. Storm fits, or another 4 years of fits because we did nothing? At least he's not losing total control, and if he can handle that, great.

I'm okay with the suggestion, not thrilled, but I can see it's benefits.

It doesn't bother me that the posts following mine lead to the others discussing a direct "joint manager" position rather than a Manager/Co-Manager duo leading to that becoming the official announcement, though.

We were called in by you, yourselves. Not all of you, I'm not even pointing you out, either, Kill. But the PWA didn't just walk in unannounced or uninvited.

Do you honestly think saying this is productive? ...

I'm sure he's just expressing and focusing his frustration on my past. Sure, I may not get on Classic, specifically, and spend 18 hours of my day getting to know the people there, but null that detail, it does not mean I am directly positioning myself solely on Era. I get around, I can assure him that, and I'm sure the people on Zodaic, Val, UN, etc can vouch for my random, off-duty, friendly "Hello"s.
