-HateD- will become famous soon enough
I swear there are like 4 or 5 "oldbies" that I just cannot understand due to their brain degradation from drug abuse or other things of the like. Godzilla is right that if people can help and are staff (purely volunteer position) that they should do so. Zach and Fiber just want to argue with him tooth and nail because god forbid he ever did anything right. Stop being butthurt and look towards the future.

I think you're unfairly lumping me together with Zach.
I wasn't disagreeing with Godzilla. People should help out if they want to.
It only becomes a problem, in my eyes, when people begin to expect staff to do more than what their job entails.

"You're a PR that doesn't do graphics? Way to be lazy."

Do we even need PR's? I don't think so. We have a support system in place for people to use and admins can sort issues out through that. We don't even need PR's. What do they even do apart from warp around annoying people.

Gun skins, jeez man. Who gives a ****? Matter of fact, who the **** even wants a pink gun? Seriously. Grow the feck up.

I'm not even really sure why you're directing that at me, but I think you should read what you wrote and think about who actually needs to grow up.

I didn't direct nothing at you. Maybe you need to learn how to read?

Oh sorry, I just thought the fact that you quoted me and didn't address anyone in particular by name meant that you were talking to me.

After re-reading the posts I thought I would address this; How are they going to know? How are the players going to know that you're doing more than your job? When I was a PR under RayMan's shenanigans I was completely aware of all development and helping wherever possible and even he didn't know I was multi-tasking my PR work with other work. I mean, unless you run around unstick me saying; "Hey I just recolored all the guns for you guys so have fun with them" players really won't know that you did it but I guess that's what people love now-a-days, recognition of what they have done, attention.

I mean, I was cycling in and out hats at the SR shop and the only people who knew were the management and high admins. I was getting gani's made for projects that we could use as quests and only management and high admins knew, I multi-tasked my PR work with other work and within a few months of being a PR, active every day and doing everything I could do I was rewarded with PRA.

It pays to help wherever you can help, especially if you have something to prove but that doesn't mean you need player recognition for it, the self reward and reward of thankfulness from the development and management was more than enough to keep me interested in everything I did.

You're clearly missing the point.
