A community coordinator is someone who relays information from the developer to the community be it news/updates/etc... They also read the forums and communicate to the dev team/publisher what the community is saying/wanting. It's not that complicated. I'm guessing that this is a SEGA "recommended" hire as the guys over at CA have the same type of group. Those guys are good at their job (albiet the game itself was a letdown). Clearly Noun and the other guys should be spending more time doing game development related work as instead of feedin forum trolls. You don't have to be a gamer to fill a marketing/customer relation type job role, though it is helpful. I know plenty of people who work in these types of positions that do a great job (not necessarily users of the product/service). Calling these people the wrong people is short-sighted and honestly makes one look like a fool as you have absolutely no evidence to back up your argument. This thread should be locked IMO.
Yes, This!!
Aside from saying I'm a fool because i have no 'evidence' to back up my 'argument' which leads me to believe you perhaps misunderstand the meaning of words like opinion, believe, satire and view.
But that's okay, however in future please learn the differences between the meanings of words that you think have the same meaning. The difference may seem to be subtle, but they are profound when it comes expression.
(i.e, I've never used the word 'wrong' in any sentence thus far ,you may 'think' its similar to other words, but you are ,.. well,.. wrong lol)
Now, you seem to have a greater understanding of what the job entails, thank you for sharing, honestly, you are the first person in fact to clarify this to me.
And also you 'guess' as to why this is happening, again more information that i need.
You also say you have some friends who do the same job, and while we both agree on that being someone who plays the game would be more 'helpful' to this role, your experience with these people and their jobs have shown you that such a thing is not necessary.
Although one thing i must mention is that without knowing how people who have had experience within the game they are coordinating for the community your measure or what is 'good' may be off,. but i will not pursue that.
Also the fact they are your 'friends' and the job is 'not that complicated' suggest bias perhaps, but lets not go down that road, I'm glad you are sharing whatever insights you have
As i said before i am but an individual, with the experience of only one person, and this is why i am here.
To hear and share opinions and experiences with others to greater understand all things. I am open to everything you say.
I'm not categorically saying they are bad, and will be bad, but merely saying i do not understand the reasoning behind it.
My point was only that people who are already amongst the community would seem be a better choice all things being equal (again, not saying they will be bad)
And because of the complete lack of understanding towards the community that relic seem to have my assumption wasn't completely unfounded, and ultimately unresolved due to relic/NOUN actively seeking to avoid communication.
Ironically, you, a member of the community are the one to share information pertaining to the role they will be doing, even with the community 'Manager' popping in this thread to post mindless nonsense.
And you and i are so different too, you wish for this thread to be locked, I believe that no thread should be locked as long as it has an active discussion, regardless of my feelings towards it, and yet we can communicate quite easily tho our core principles seem at odd with each others.
