Greetings-
This public announcement is to serve as notice to interested parties that I am now serving as Diplomatic Liason to the Ascendant Frontier.
Appointment to this post has been logged with Ascendant Frontier High Counsel, the membership of Ascendant Frontier and with the Eve Forum Moderation Team.
I handle general Alliance Correspondence and field general questions from the public and other Eve entitites.
Any requests for Non-Agression policies, Treaties, Cease Fire or Surrender will be forwarded up the chain of command from myself to the Executive.
I check Evemail on a regular basis, but due to the high volume of mail I recieve please do not be discouraged if I am not able to respond right away.
If you have a matter that requires URGENT attention, please say so in the subject line of your evemail.
Questions from news organizations will be answered as soon as possible, depending on operational security and validity of the sender.
Questions that have great impact on alliance standings or activities will typically be forwarded to High Counsel or Executor.
Now that I have all that behind me, I have a few personal rules that govern my conduct on the forums.
I typically will not respond to spam, obvious flame posts, one line zingers and other related things. Construct a serious post, and I will give you a serious answer.
I'll treat you with respect and courtesy, as long as you continue to treat me in a like manner. For the purpose of my appointment, I am going to try resetting my mental forum standings.
If you've acted like a complete asshat on the forums, I'm going to try giving you a second chance.
I will tell the truth from my point of view, but I will not disclose or discuss operational plans being deployed or pending.
I work for the Department of Homeland Security, and I work quite a bit. I don't check forums from work computers, and I regularly put in very long days.
Sincerely,
GK

Impossible. The forums are so buggy it takes more than 1 minute just to log out and log into a second account and get it to work. The only real option for fast account-switching is to use multiple browsers, one for each account.

Seems to me you are a good man for the job.
I have a question, which you may or may not chose to answer...
Does cultivation of the image projected by ASCN as an alliance on the forums fall under your job description? and if so, can you give us an insight into how you believe the interaction: Alliance <> EVE-O Forums <> Alliance should pan out .. as far as ASCN is concerned ?

That's a tough question to nail down, to be honest.
When it comes to the cultivation of the image of our alliance falling under my job description, I think our actions in-game and what we say as people define what others think of us more than anything I could do personally.
When it comes to our relations with other entities in Eve, we are what we are. Some people loathe us, some people love us.
It's all about public perception coupled with in-game actions.
I work a little differently than most of the people you'll meet on the forums that work in a diplomatic capacity.
I think it's most important to put your best foot forward, as in when something goes right, praise those that are responsible, and let the public know.
On the other side of the coin, I think you have to put out the dirty laundry too. When something goes terribly wrong, I've got no truck with hanging it out there for everyone to see.
Does it give our opponents ammunition? Of course, but it's the truth. While people that hate ASCN may have a field day requoting me, I can log in every day feeling like I've been honest with my members and the Eve public.
Respect and honor before flash and volume.
As for the interaction of Alliance <> Forums <> Alliance, I'll try and answer what I think you're asking.
Eve is a game for age 13 on up. We don't discriminate based on age, and some of our members are of the younger persuasion. (And some of our older members act like it, which is okay but not when it interferes with the image you want others to see)
As a result, some of our members really let their emotions get the better of them, and without thinking of the repercussions towards their alliance and public perception, fire away posts that can really make us look bad.
We typically choose at the beginning of any large conflict, to have our members abstain from posting on the forums and put out the message we wish to pass onto the public through authorized representatives.
The request isn't always followed, but the idea is sound.
My grandfather (in his infinite wisdom he shared with a 9 year old) told me once:
Originally by: Grandpa "If you don't want people to shoot at you, don't hand 'em ammo"
It works today as well as it did back then. Thanks Grandpa.
That answer your question?

I'm speaking about things that haven't been released in the public arena.
We use PM's and private teamspeak channels for some of the more secret-squirrel stuff going on.

Good luck on your job man, ever since I saw you join CLS I saw you were enthousiastic and I had a feeling you might've ended up somewhere with something of your own to do. :)
Have fun with all the evemails, war threats, reimbursement convos, angry Seleene's, evil Istvaans, etc... -
