I am seeing he/she is do more for WoWP each day. To me it seems he/she does more than the people in Kiev, however that could be just my perspective view.  I like what I am seeing from them. I can see the fight in eekeeboo in keeping WoWP alive. Now if Kiev could get on board too.

If he wasn't such an *** to players he'd be doing a bit better.

We're blessed to have Sonic in comparison.

Just my personal opinion of the guy.

Outta upvotes for today, but this sentiment mirrors my own...

 

Eek is a jerk... he treats people like crap... and if you catch him being wrong, he will change the subject ASAP.

 

He's the type of guy that will misquote someone (Or falsely accuse them of saying they used exploits), refuse to apologize, and then go off the rails if someone misquotes him.

 

The type of guy that will come to a Clans Discord, interject himself into a conversation (Falsely accuse someone of saying they used exploits), and then block people when he gets told to zip his flappy lips...

 

WG needs to stop hiring streamers for important positions...   (Murazor, anyone?)

 

Thank the Gods we have Sonic...

I agree that Sonic is doing a great job especially given the somewhat challenging circumstances. Keep it up!

does this mean that we will see a return for the need to have an understanding of ACM and actual flying skills to the game again?  you know, like we had from Alpha through open beta.

 

as for the primary topic of this the thread, Eekeeboo, I was impressed with his/her posts on the WoWP Steam forums.

One thing of note that might help relations with players is customer service. Seems WG needs some work in that field too. It's ok to have independent opinions about the game, the dev group & the community. But what's a big no no in ANY industry is treating your customers & players like crap in an insulting manner. Especially if these players are paying $$$ for your titles. Just a little advice.

eekeeboo is a british guy in his 30s or so (guessing, based on what i've seen on stream). I've heard others complain about him but i've never had any reason to complain, and from everything i've seen he does a good job. He's really active on the EU forums, reddit, and discord.

This was may point more than being heavy handed in Discord (which its a perfect name for that site). Anyways, beyond the power game, my point is he gets information out. FYI, if he is wrong with info, he's wrong. You can't bat a 1,000 all the time. The main thing is to be consistent on the good side of things for WoWP and the players.

There's a difference between being wrong... and being wrong, but refusing to admit it...

 

Fighting against people tooth an nail, calling them liars, discrediting their finding with nothing to back his position up, or just outright lying himself...

 

I don't disagree that other than his incredibly unprofessional communication in Discord, he does do parts of his job quite well... but that matters little next to his D-bag behaviour.

 

A CM that treats his community like crap if they don't obey to sycophantic levels, isn't worthy of the job, IMO.

 

Take away his talking privileges, keep him relegated to Official posts only...

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Maybe he lost sight who he is working with that pays for his job?

Man, I super duper hope we get to the point that I need an Assistant! That would be terrific!

Customer Service has undergone several changes recently and should be getting back into their stride. If you have filed a Customer Service ticket and are not seeing acceptable results, please let me know that Ticket Number and I will be glad to investigate it and see what can be done!

Although I work closely with Eek, I have a good idea of the types of things Eek has to deal with, I find Eek to be very forthcoming when he is able to be so.

He has passion for this community and can relate to all of us as players, but it's not fair to expect of him to just roll over at every opportunity and tell people what they want to hear .. if he doesn't know, he'll say, if he does but can't, he'll say, or will say he just doesn't know... 

I have the pleasure of seeing how things work a bit more on the CM side of things being a CC. I don't expect everyone to just take my word but I can personally attest to the things that both Eek and Sonic have to deal with as ambassadors for the community.

also.. if you're not getting the responses you want.. it might be time to look in the mirror?

[Cenotaph]

Seems his "hand picked CCs" are just as toxic and arbitrary as Eek is... what a shocker, said nobody...      (Not directed at you, Roussos...)
