Just sat and watched CCP Yokai talking to StevieSG, he said he came to fanfest last year as a player and now he works for CCP and it got me to thinking, how many of CCP's staff started off as players? And how does that number compare to other MMO's?

A lot do end up as staff. In fact just after that aired Yokai's son was hired as CCP's new head of PR.
Fake edit: Word just came in that he was promoted to CEO.

This is actually entirely believable.

Any chance of a reply from a GM or Dev, if you aren't all hungover from lastnight?

I've been playing since 09-2004 and came to work at CCP 12-2009.
Unfortunately Kai had to turn down the PR position... it requires activities after his bedtime.

Yay for blue bars in my thread, thanks for the response Yokai. Im sure Kai would have made a fine CEO Do you happen to know how many of your fellow staffers started out the way you did?

Do not derail my thread with your whining, either use one of the existing whine threads or make one of your own. This thread is so I can gauge how many CCP staff started just as players.

Pretty similar story for me too: Started playing in 2004. Attended FF 2008 and 2009 as a player. Decided I liked it here so much I decided to stay! -- Team Gridlock: Herding electronic cats since 2010 Herding drunken players since FF 2011 |

I started playing in May 2004. Came to my first Fanfest in 2006 and from there went on to become a volunteer at CCP.
In 2007 I joined the Community team and it has been mozo ever since

Thanks for the replies from the Blue Bar brigade so far, give your co-workers a prod, lets see how many of you started out the same way, And for the chap above me

This would be the best place for you to start.

Actually all who was on Fanfest or watched the stream will end like CCP dev. Desire for trolling and giving the unfulfillable promises, i can feel it in my blood already.
