Senior Members

[Citizen]

Given that there has been a large amount of growth here at TGH, we feel that some of our more experienced members should be promoted to the title of Senior Member in order to acknowledge their contributions to the Guild Wars community here at TGH. This title will let the newer members know that the infomation provided by these Senior Members is reliable, and that they can feel comfortable going to them for assistance.

We will be adding members to this usergroup from time to time based on a couple different aspects: mainly for going out of their way to consistently help others here at the forums, and/or for members who have been at TGH for a good while (at least 4 months). This isn't something that people apply or ask for. It's just something that we will be giving at our own discretion to reward those members that have made significant contributions and have been here for a long while.

Members that already have an "Alpha Tester" title can qualify and be promoted to the Senior Member group, but for the remainder of the GW closed alpha/beta, the Alpha Tester title and color will be what shows on his/her posts.

Over the next few days, we'll be giving out the title to those who we know are currently deserving, and forum members can nominate someone who he/she feels deserves it but hasnt yet received it but please wait a few days for things to settle before sending in nominations. If you would like to post feedback on this, feel free to PM myself or another staff member anytime.

[Citizen]

Toxic Boy has been added to the Senior Member group. He's been a long time member of TGH dating all the way back to the old forums. Congrats!

Edit to add: we'll be announcing new senior members here in the future to give them some recognition.

[Burn Baby Burn]

Me thinks cit forgot to lock this thread...

[Citizen]

Nope, its open for comment. Remember to stay on topic, though.

[Burn Baby Burn]

He's been a long time member of TGH dating all the way back to the old forums. Congrats!
Wow... so like are all the older forum members, that are still active, the current senior members?

[Citizen]

Wow... so like are all the older forum members, that are still active, the current senior members?
Not exactly. If you read the second paragraph, you'll see more information for the requirements. Really, it boils down to the members that have been around for awhile and help out a lot.

[Citizen]

I'd like to offer a congratulations to Nash, the recipient of our latest promotion to the title of Senior Member. :up:

[Crispie]

Congrats !

[Nash]

Yay! :D
This space intentionally left blank.

[Virgil]

Congrats Nash. Now you can save the kittens with authority.

[Weezer_Blue]

will there be a "senior citizen" usergroup for people over 50? hehe.

[LordFu]

Gratz! Love the comic, BTW.

[Sesshomaru]

Hey, I am yellow now! Woo! Free Pants for everyone next Beta Event!

[toxic boy]

Yep... Good job Sess... Ill be sure you hold true to your words next event

[Citizen]

will there be a "senior citizen" usergroup for people over 50? hehe.
There is only one senior citizen.

Rawr!

[MeatMan]

There is only one senior citizen
at first i thought that was directed at me, the old guy around here, but then i realized you were just talking about yourself. :P

anywho...congrats to the newest senior members: 7th Angel, Saben, Sesshomaru, and Shinsei.

[MaHaGoN]

There is only one senior citizen.

Rawr!

I thought he was talking about himself at first, but then I read it again, and I like Senior? Using a fake ID again Citizen? tsk tsk... throw it out man, you are not fooling anyone.

Congrats to those who have been inducted into the coolest kittuns around... yes that was directed to Nash ;)

MaHaGoN

[Saben]

Kittuns are evil! But thanks for the promotion, guys :D

[Diovid of the land]

gratz and welcome to the... club?

[Shinsei]

Who bleached my name!?

[Scaper-X]

*hides the Tide® Brand Bleach*

Um. Nash did. Throw kittuns at him.
-- Scaper-X

[7th Angel]

Oh, yay! Thanks for the "promotion." So are there special discounts and benefits for seniors? :)

[Virgil]

Congats to 7th Angel, Saben, Sesshomaru, and Shinsei. I'm sure you all deserve it, or else Meatman has some explaining.

PS, 4 at a time now? What, are you low on your monthly senior membor quota?

[TheRealDecoy]

PS, 4 at a time now? What, are you low on your monthly senior membor quota?They're just replacing the ones that left. :twisted:

Kidding (kinda), of course.

[Sesshomaru]

Ooh! Can I be Cicciro? Hes purty.

-shuffles in back for cicciro corpse-

-skins-

-zippers-

Tahdah!

-complain-

AAH! IT'S TAKING OVER!

GOD HELP ME!

[Silver Bells]

Who left? =p

[Citizen]

Using a fake ID again Citizen? tsk tsk... throw it out man, you are not fooling anyone.
Damn.
Oh, yay! Thanks for the "promotion." So are there special discounts and benefits for seniors?
Yes, in fact, you get 50% off all Citizen gear. I sell crayon drawings at a meager 50 bucks a pop. You can have them for 25. :P

[Nyxa Nightwing]

Hey congrats to all the newly promoted members.!!!!!! Maybe one day I can be a member like you.......one day.......one day my precious :twisted:

[Cronos Khan]

Hey congrats to all the newly promoted members.!!!!!! Maybe one day I can be a member like you.......one day.......one day my precious :twisted:
Yes...one of these days you'll get there :biggrin:

[Weezer_Blue]

haha... if i ever get Senior Member can I be the "synical senior" member? hehe ;)

[Virgil]

Woe is the day Weezer becomes senior member. Shaky will be forever in envy, and the fighting will begin again.

And cit, can you link me to your fan store?

[Weezer_Blue]

haha... i'm no longer in a neverending fued with Shaky. don't worry about that. haha. (he takes too much time to argue with... and unfortunatly he's good at it :mad: )

[ZiGGY^]

I never post anything helpful, nothing I say is reliable, but goddamn I want a fancy title :D

(yes that rhymes <3 )

[Weezer_Blue]

lol. nice. well... no. i don't see how it rhymes. i'm confused! anyway, i try to be helpful but sometimes my strong oppinions get in the way. that and my synicism. ;)

[TheRealDecoy]

I never post anything helpful, nothing I say is reliable, but goddamn I want a fancy title :D

(yes that rhymes <3 )Since when has posting helpful things been a requirement for being a Senior Member? I'm living proof that isn't true. :)

[Burn Baby Burn]

I'm too cool for senior member.

[Thornblade]

lol. nice. well... no. i don't see how it rhymes. i'm confused! anyway, i try to be helpful but sometimes my strong oppinions get in the way. that and my synicism. ;)

and the fact your retarded.

I'm joking weezer, ol'matey ol'buddy ol'pal

[ZiGGY^]

but seriously I think I should get one cause Ive been here nearly a year now and I sell people cheap skill charms :p

[Weezer_Blue]

and the fact your retarded.

I'm joking weezer, ol'matey ol'buddy ol'pal

says the man with the crab signature.

[Sesshomaru]

Isn't it Cynical and Cynicism?

How about we skip the middleman and make you a Senile Member?

[Weezer_Blue]

it was supposed to be a play on words but whatever... "S"ynical and Senior?

[Speciou5]

Come on guys, stay on topic. This is a news and events post, so let's keep it orderly and sane.

[Weezer_Blue]

We can attempt to be orderly, but sane is a long shot for these forums ;)

[MeatMan]

congrats to the newest Senior Member... Martian.

[U4EA]

Feedback: it's a smashing idea but there needs to be some way new registrants are made aware of the fact that there are senior members in the forums, and all the hooplah which that entails (i.e. infomation provided by these Senior Members is reliable etc etc). One might simply misinterpret the "Senior Member" tag as pointing out someone who spams a lot (like many other forums change tags based on increasing postcounts).

</brainfart>

[Sesshomaru]

My information is supposed to be valid?

I thought me being a senior just made others listen to me when I am being dumb...

[ZiGGY^]

my new goal is to be the most senior non senior member, so get promoting other people :o

[Invictus]

my new goal is to be the most senior non senior member, so get promoting other people :o
Whats that mean? Your just going to try and post "use the search button before posting" before anyone else in half of the threads that get started on these boards?
:laugh: :laugh:

[Joe Hipstead]

I'm hoping to get demoted to junior member, my plan is to make pointless posts

[Sesshomaru]

We already have junior members. Mmm, grey tag.

[SpaceFreak]

We already have junior members. Mmm, grey tag.
Does'nt grey = banned?

[MeatMan]

congrats to the newest Senior Members: Crispie, Vanquisher, and *gasp* ...Burn Baby Burn. (oh the humanity! =P)

[Crispie]

Sweet, just realized I am a senior member! Hopefully my year of experience with GW will further help the new players that join us at release. Congrats to the other new seniors, :)

[Kris]

Hey nice job you guys :)

[Jormund]

Holy cow, has it already been four months since December :shocked: ? Time flew rather quickly I must say, congratulations to the senior members... including BBB!

[Jyrenth]

congrats to the newest Senior Members: Crispie, Vanquisher, and *gasp* ...Burn Baby Burn. (oh the humanity! =P)
Jesus Christ! Lets just hope the lowbies won't mistakenly take BBB seriously ;)

[Shinsei]

An interesting new group of seniors ;)

Hehe, grats guys. I <3 you

[Burn Baby Burn]

congrats to the newest Senior Members: Crispie, Vanquisher, and *gasp* ...Burn Baby Burn. (oh the humanity! =P)
Scraping the bottom of the barrel eh mm? Let me guess, Branskins will be the next Senior Member?

[TrapY Access]

congrats guy s:)

[Virgil]

Congrats to you all. I thought that bright yellow tag Crispie had was new, but I couldn't find this thread. BBB too...strange...I thought the requirements were to be helpful. :laugh:

[vanquisher]

I heart Shinsei and BBB.

[Nash]

OMG, Vanquisher and BBB?
endoftheworld.swf TBH.

[Linkie]

'grats wanky and others.

[cynicalcrab]

OMG, Vanquisher and BBB?
endoftheworld.swf TBH.
There's some irony for you: That was what I thought when you became a senior member. :laugh:

Grats to Crispie, Vanquisher, and the one who brings a little ray of sunshine everywhere he goes, Mr. BBB. :biggrin:

[Speciou5]

I think this just shows that ANYONE can be a Senior member. I mean Nash, Vanq, and BBB did it. Why can't you?

*cue motivational recruitment music*

[Citizen]

BBB has been around since the begining of time. (Well, for TGH, that is). He's crazy but TGH wouldn't be the same without him.

/plots on what to change BBB's user title to now that he's a senior member

[toxic boy]

ah we might have to add a couple notches to the Senior Member belt

congrats to all the new Senior Members

[LordFu]

Gratz, guys!

[TheWhiteRabbiT]

I've been at this site for a long time and I believe that I fairly no alot about guildwars and have contributed a couple of pretty nice posts.

Would that add up for senior member points?

[Citizen]

Its really just a subjective decision of the staff. Other sites give special titles based on number of posts but ours are based mostly on how long the person's been a member and how much they add to the community, whether it be comics in AJ's case or a crazy but likable personality like BBB.

So I dont get it?! I can be crazy and likable and make comics!

[elk~]

Ahhh yes but you seem to fail to remember that you did poorly in the evening gown portion of the competition not to mention failed the secret handshake exam. Back to the drawing board I guess.

:pimp:

[Jink]

Maybe they don't like Pikachu?

Pika pika!

[Virgil]

is isn't something that people apply or ask for. It's just something that we will be giving at our own discretion to reward those members that have made significant contributions and have been here for a long while.

Ask and you shall not recieve TheWhiteRabbit. Oh cit/meatman, do you have any timeline to when you do this, because I've looked at the dates that you announce, and it seems pretty random.

[cynicalcrab]

No specific dates. People will PM about someone they think would be a good candidate or one of the staff notices someone going out of their way to be helpful.
We will be adding members to this usergroup from time to time based on a couple different aspects: mainly for going out of their way to consistently help others here at the forums, and/or for members who have been at TGH for a good while (at least 4 months).

[Tirion Tather]

If you could become senior member for most posts wezer blue would be one before anyone, he has 2768 posts, 16 posts per day!

[Diablo]

Luckily we don't pick Senior Members by the ammount they post but by the quality of their posts.

[Cryo Akira]

Which is a way to say that if you post a lot but aren't a senior member, you're writing desperatly stupid things :laugh:







yeah, i know i also write a lot of posts :rolleyes:

[MeatMan]

*taps Cryo Akira on the shoulder*

congrats Cryo. you're the newest addition to the Senior Member group. :D

[realODDSMAN]

Luckily we don't pick Senior Members by the ammount they post but by the quality of their posts.

Im always degrading GW :biggrin:

I should get "Senior Troll" status

:P

[Kyallar Thunderfist]

Nice job Cryo.

[Cryo Akira]

Hum, lol, well thx, that was unexpected :)

[Kartan]

Given that there has been a large amount of growth here at TGH,

I'm not one for badges, but I did want to commend TGH...

I move here from another fansite, (that will remain nameless) and now TGH is my home. I left due to spyware/adware type banners or just general "Hard on the eyes" formats. I think more and more will flock to TGH due to some of the very reasons I did. I just hope you are ready for the increase in bandwidth. There has been several great ideas and helps that I have picked up as I browse, and I am grateful. I've also learned how to use the search tool! :)

Yeah, I know that sounds like a lips to behind type statement, but that is not the way it was intended.

Way to go TGH on a great job well done and to all the senior members.

Sir Kartan

[Kuntz]

Oi I help people out, mainly in the Tech area, but still !_!

[Crispie]

Congrats Cyro :)

[Virgil]

Congrats Cyro! So much for the "sarcastic" smiley in your earlier post.

[Cryo Akira]

Well, that just make me look even more ridiculous ;)

[Saben]

Nice job Cryo, and congrats to the other senior members who were named recently.

[[BBF]Tantor]

GG cryo, I have seen your post here for ages seems like.....Now you have to be nice to the noobs...lol

[Nokko Kaas]

Good job guys. I love that the senior members here are all so different. It makes for some interesting discussions. :P

[MeatMan]

another new Senior Member today... Janan Pacha

thank you for your continued contribution to our forum community, Janan. :D

[Virgil]

Wow the senior members are rolling in fast! About 2 minutes ago I saw Janan's yellow tag, and I had to look here. Congrats Janan!

[Harvest]

Can I suggest that weezer never be promoted? He has alot of threads, but every one is childish and never any use to us newer members.

I also see alot of posts from Virgil those, however have always provided insight to me as a new player.

Love the senior member idea. Good call!!!

[LordFu]

/congrats :D

[kulaice]

Congratulations, JP! Well earned status I must say.

I'm not a good candidate myself because I'm not as knowledgeable about GW as most other true gamers in here. And I tend to be wishy-washy and prefer to stay neutral in most discussions.
I also see alot of posts from Virgil those, however have always provided insight to me as a new player.Don't worry. Virgil is an easy candidate for being a senior member, hands down. He's got a good head on his shoulders, keeps his cool, and is helpful. Eventually that day will come.

I have a mental list of other members that could also be promoted, but some just have to to be a bit more respectful of others. Great to see the seniority pool growing, nonetheless! :)

congrats, guys...and thanks for your continued participation in our forum community. :D

[TrapY Access]

Whoa...

Thanks Meatman/Staff/Community :D. Hopefully I can continue giving something to the community, even if it is just a black hole that sucks in Iron Ingots and sends them into oblivion.

[Crispie]

Congrats, welcome to the club! :D

[LordFu]

All great additions!

[MOOMANiBE]

Ooh! I just noticed this now. That's pretty cool. :D

[Erasculio]

:shocked:

Huh...That's interesting. Thanks Meatman and everyone else, I'm very surprised to see this, but I will do my best to honor the title.

Erasculio

[Virgil]

Congrats to you all. That's a very good list. Not suprised by anyone though. :D

[Crispie]

Congrats! Haha, with so many new Senior Members, I might have to get a new Congrats sign :D

[Cronos Khan]

yes, huge congrats to all new senior members, there's so many of them now...it's an army >< :P

[Dreaming Warrior]

I feel surrounded by the omniprescent existence of the senior members. *cowers* :D

[Rion]

Just noticed Erasculio is now considered a Senior member. Thought I'd drop by to say this is a nice choice and I feel it's well deserved.

/wave

[Citizen]

Congrats to Jab Guardian, Greg, and Yangsta on the senior memberhood. (If thats a word). Anyway, these guys have been around for 10 months or longer, and we definetly appreciate them being here. I think Yangsta deserves it times two for sporting the retro starcraft avatar :twisted:

[Saben]

Welcome to the cool Senior Member club! Congrats on the promotions, guys.

[SpaceFreak]

Congrats guys.

[TheRealDecoy]

I'm sorry if I sound like a wet towel (what does a wet towel sound like, anyways?), but it's weird how the Senior Member list is huge all of a sudden. Maybe it's just me, and if it is then I'll shut up, but I always thought that the Senior Members would be a smaller group of people. I know that no one ever said anything about the size of the group, but to me it feels like the Senior Member tag has lost a lot of it's...erm...signifigance. Maybe this would have been better if it was a PM, and if so then I'm sorry, but I've been wanting to say something about it for a little while.

Anyways, gratz to the new guys.

I'm sure there is still signifigance in Seniority even though there are many new members. The site's growing, the forums are expanding so you gotta have more senior members in. As I said before....it's an army!

[Virgil]

TheRealDecoy, I understand your feeling. There are a lot more senior members now. You have to realize that the senior member group is only growing along with the size of the community. When you became a senior member, I expect that the community was quite small. Now, there are over 8000 members, and (although many are very infrequent) they need a lot of guidence.


A hearty congrats to the newest senior members. All long time contributers.

[LordFu]

Remember, not all the Senior Members are still active posters. We also made all the alpha and beta testers Senior Members, too, which added quite a few.

[Tachana]

Congrats to all the new senior members :D

[Crispie]

Its not about the amount of Sen Members, its about the quality of them. I could care less if half of the members were Sen Members, as long as they are reliable and provide good quality information or whatnot.

[Kara]

Grats to the new guys!

I agree, it doesn't matter how many there are. The number is bound to grow since there's no way to lose Seniority (that I know of). But that's fine. As long as the Senior members are worthy of the title. I seem to recall a couple of times a newbie was astonished at the behavior of a Senior Member... there's a bit of responsibility with the title. Some folks don't seem to care, and that's sad.

It's only a title, but it says a lot. It gets you a certain amount of trust, and people think it's a sign of credibility. If everyone with a bright yellow name is worthy of that trust, then I wouldn't mind if everyone was a Senior Member.

Grats again to the new Seniors! Hope you guys stick around for another 10 months! ... and more! :D

[actionjack]

should make Kara the TGH idol....

[Kara]

I'll settle for Board Princess. <3

[Scaper-X]

So I'm in Agony Vent, minding my own business, when Narc yells at me to join the Agony group on TGH, admitting that it's going to remove my Senior Member label.

"Since when was I a Senior Member?" I ask Narc politely.

"Since you started rocking so damn hard which has been for, like, forever," Narc replies.

"Hot steel ingots!" I exclaim.

Belatedly, thanks for the status label (although I haven't exactly been active as of late).
-- Scaper-X

[Jormund]

Congratulations to you new senior members... I hear if you disrespect the title that the ghost of Meatman (which is actually a spectral clone of him) comes and haunts you for 10 fort-nights. He breaks alot of lamps, so be warned.

Off-Topic: Agony Vent is more entertaining then stand-up comedy.

[jab_guardian]

i'd like to thank all the overworked hamsters who tirelessly powered my laptop over the last few months so i could be a part of what tunrned out to be my first real involvement in an online community. i've been lurking ever since TGH's first few weeks of service and i shed a tear of joy watching it grow up.

but enough of the jibba jabba. i'm honored to be part of the club. :biggrin:

[toxic boy]

Congrats to all new senior members dont let the Bright yellow Letters scare you away

[Citizen]

As we pass 9,000 members, its about time to add our next group of senior member additions. If you havent seen these people around, you're either a new member or have been living under a rock somewhere. Congrats to the new senior members!

Congratulations!

Cragz
DonD
Prophet
Stormin_Mormon
Netherscourge
Treize and Creon
MaHaGoN
Arcad1a

[Crispie]

Nice :D

[LordFu]

/congrats everyone!

[Jormund]

Don't forget about that ghost of Meatman I warned you senior members of!!!

[Prophet]

Yay for me.

[berserk]

congrats...


There should be a different color for the senior and alpha ppl together that way we can tell who is just a senior member and who is both...

My .02 cents..

[MaHaGoN]

I thank the staff of TGH, and want to give congratulations to all the other members that were bestowed this great honor.

Ok, enough formality :P ::Jumps around for joy:: Maybe people will actually read my posts now... :laugh:

Now I have to end all my posts with a different color name :P

MaHaGoN

[Arcad1a]

heh did not think I was that popular, wahoo im yellow :P

I actually almost did not notice I was senior till after I looked at a old thread I posted in :P

[Scuba]

Congrats to all new seniors and those that I have missed earlier :victory:

[Cragz]

I must have made a good ten posts before I realised I'd been added! Nice to be part of the club :)

[Treize and Creon]

Oh wow, I don't know what got me here...I mean I've never won anything in my entire life :shocked:

[SpaceFreak]

Grats Treize

[Virgil]

Woa, large list there. Lots of long timers. Congrats to you all.

[Treize and Creon]

thanks...and congrats to all future senior members!

[PhaeThorn]

Congrats to all senior members and upcoming seniors!

....

But may I ask what this exactly is? A simple status symbol or does it actually have a function? Forgive me for being new ;)

[Burn Baby Burn]

Read the first post ;)

[PhaeThorn]

You know, I actually read that post yesterday but I guess I didn't remember that it actually said what it was. So it's a status symbol, ok thanks :D

[Burn Baby Burn]

You know, I actually read that post yesterday but I guess I didn't remember that it actually said what it was. So it's a status symbol, ok thanks :D
I wouldn't call it a status symbol, taking into account the varity of members who have the tag. Its like if i say "Jump off that building, trust me you wont die" you would believe me more than if... oXy said to you the exact same thing.

[PhaeThorn]

I wouldn't call it a status symbol, taking into account the varity of members who have the tag. Its like if i say "Jump off that building, trust me you wont die" you would believe me more than if... oXy said to you the exact same thing.
Well, to me it IS a status symbol. You've earned the tag and people know ( except new people like me, haha ) that they can trust you more than the normal users. Really, that is a status symbol to me.

But enough of that, we don't want to change this into a yes .. no .. yes .. no topic, do we? haha :D

[DonD]

I just noticed I'm a senior member now!
I feel so honored, thank you very much :D

[TrapY Access]

congrats- now its much easier for you to find your post in a thread by looking for the yellow bold names :)

[Work Her]

When I'm a senior member I wanna take off my diapers!

[vanquisher]

I wouldn't call it a status symbol, taking into account the varity of members who have the tag. Its like if i say "Jump off that building, trust me you wont die" you would believe me more than if... oXy said to you the exact same thing.

In fairness, I'd believe anyone over oXy, senior member or not. :(

[Crispie]

The description of Senior Member is that of a status, whether you like it or not. Senior Member means that you are a quality member experienced with Guild Wars. Thats the status you have. Not rocket science people ;)

[Sansui]

So why is sansui not a senior member? i joke i joke.

gj on being here so long you buncha old bastads. :P take it in lightly.

[Silent Killer]

ya like in last december i was really wondering why Jab_Guardian wasnt a senior since he was a member since 2003 but recently maybe a week or 3 ago lol he became on and i wanna give the senior member Jab_guardian props

[Jormund]

Why isn't Sansui a senior member :P ?

Just so this post isn't a spam, I'm also going to offer my conGRADulations (you've graduated from regular to senior, get it???) that I didn't give in my first post because it was dettered by that ghost of Meatman.

So conGRADulations to you senior membrites. May your title always be mistaken for your real life age being 50+.

[Thornblade]

Come to think of it, why aren't *I* a senior member? I've seen people who joined a month after me get the title but I remain a mere young'un...

Maybe I havent had enough valuable input...

[Weezer_Blue]

They should make it so that you had to have done something worthy to become a senior citizen at age 65 then ; )

[LordFu]

It's a nomination type process. Some people get missed. Netherscourge has been here longer than me, and he just got added, LoL.

[Enig]

So conGRADulations to you senior membrites. May your title always be mistaken for your real life age being 50+. :laugh:

10 chars

[Sesshomaru]

They should make it so that you had to have done something worthy to become a senior citizen at age 65 then ; )

Yes, please.

But then the other 65 year olds would be whining too. Oh well, it just concretes why they aren't seniors.

[Erasculio]

Well, I think my opinion doesn't really matter, but I would like to mention how, IMO, Virgil would be a good Senior Member.

(Granted, I don't think most of the current Senior Members deserve the title, myself included, but...At least I think Virgil does.)

Erasculio

[Kara]

[MeatMan]

[SpaceFreak]

Congrats you all. :)

[Burn Baby Burn]

Syl?

No offense but i cant remember your username even tho you've been on these forums 1yr+ Good addtions btw.

[Kara]

Me? Wow!

*clears throat*

I'd like to thank my parents for being jerks and driving me to spend all my free time playing MMOs.... and my guildmates and all the other roleplayers for encouraging me to open my big fat mouth all the time on forums... and my wonderful boyfriend for talking me into playing Guild Wars in the first place...

Oh, and I wanna thank Narcism for being so damn sexay. You know ya love me! ;)

And of course all my fans here at TGH... as well as the people who claim to despise my Carebear ways... I love you all!

I promise I'll never be a jerk Senior member like some others... because I know that yellow name means something to newbies... what it means, I'm not sure... but I always thought Senior Members were pretty cool.

Hey, I'm cool! Next thing you know, I'll take over Gaile's job and get the all-powerful PURPLE name!

Thank you, and good night! *bows*



:victory:

Grats to everyone else! Especially Virgil, who is away until August, unless I'm insane.

[Erasculio]

Congrats, to all of you, specially Kara and Virgil. It's wonderful to see nice people becoming Senior Members.

[TrapY Access]

[DonD]

Congrats to you all, especially Kara :D
You worked pretty hard for the rp community and are finally honored for it, you deserve it :D

[Sesshomaru]

Well done folks.

Soon you'll come to love the fact that being yellow means your spam doesn't get deleted as much.

Well, if you aren't shinsei or Erasculio that is. But nobody listens to them anymore anyhow.

[toxic boy]

Congrats all you new folks Now we've got enough people we should get our own little private section on the forum where we can discuss senior memberly things...like how cool our yellow names are

[slayer145]

congrats to all you new seniors

[ShockWav3]

/congrats to all you new senior members.

Now it's that time we all fix our avatars, again. :P

[kulaice]

Does this mean you will be posting more often now? Bah, more people to add to my ignore list. ^^


Hehe, just joking. You've all been cool since the betas.

Congrats to you all.

[Erasculio]

Well, if you aren't shinsei or Erasculio that is. But nobody listens to them anymore anyhow.
Hey, I constest this. I have had only one post deleted so far.

(Which means, this site definitely needs more Moderators, don't you think?)

Congratulations again for all the new Senior Members, you do deserve it.

Erasculio

[Syl]

ho my god, i'm a senior member, thanks a lot ! :D

to respond to Burn Baby Burn, i wasn't there because:
- after the creation of the new forum, i went 1 month in vietnam for holidays (pretty nice country ;) )
- i moved to the south of france, and i had some problem to get my personal computer (3 months without it)
- and i was unlucky to have something important to do during EACH BWE ^^;

really out of luck :p

but now i'm here, ready to help as much as i can ;)

[Snarf]

Alright Thorn, Kara and Vigil! You three definately earned it :)

Tentacle Love? He just got it coz he looks so fine! :P

And syl.. About those BWEs.. Ouch man! ConGRAD's though ;)

[Aria]

Oh, and I wanna thank Narcism for being so damn sexay. You know ya love me! ;)


Narcism? :shocked: He smells more than anything else. As for love, you're going to have to take that up with Citizen. You might have to fight for it. Citry's a bit possessive about his relationship with Narc.

[LPSoldier]

Whatever. We all know Narc is my girlfriend. :rolleyes:

Congrats to all the new senior members. Bout time Virgil and Kara were awarded senior status. :)

/golf clap

[Tachana]

Finally!!!
Congrats to everyone, especially Kara, the evil carebear who introduced me to this game...

[Kamikazechicken]

Congrats everyone.

Shows how much I pay attention; I thought Kara had been a Senior Member for ages. :\

[Kara]

Congrats everyone.

Shows how much I pay attention; I thought Kara had been a Senior Member for ages. :\

Nah, I just acted like one. :biggrin: I like to play pretend.

[Mashekle]

Wow!! :shocked:
Im finally a senior member!! WOOT!


Cangrats to all of us who just made it in! :dizzy:

[Crispie]

Meshekle, your just joking right? I always thought you were one of the original Senior members *scratches head*. Stop messing with my head :dizzy:

[Kamikazechicken]

Nah, I just acted like one. :biggrin: I like to play pretend.

Lol. Well you're very good at being a Senior Member, title or no title. :D

I also assumed Ninacat and Snarf were SMs as well, but they're not. :(

[Mashekle]

Meshekle, your just joking right? I always thought you were one of the original Senior members *scratches head*. Stop messing with my head :dizzy:


Lol yeah Crispie, I was just messin around ;)


I used to post here like a hurricane, but once I got accepted to the alpha I kinda got caught up in alpha business. But I still stop by good old tgh as often as I can :D

oh yeah.. CONGRATZ on becoming one of the elite. :)

[kulaice]

Lol. Well you're very good at being a Senior Member, title or no title. :D

I also assumed Ninacat and Snarf were SMs as well, but they're not. :(They give that impression because they can write eloquently. I think most members that have achieved senior status have shown themselves to be able to express themselves in this manner. I don't know how the staff actually selects members, but one thing I noticed is that some seniors can still be rude, sarcastic, and evil... but at least they do it with a flair! :D

Go seniors!

[DonD]

Sarcasm can be art, if used right, dont take it away from me.
And i also dont think of sarcasm being something bad, some people just have this kind of humor.

[Burn Baby Burn]

Gotta love that sarcasm.

Branskin's is awesome.

[Wood Plank]

Narcism? :shocked: He smells more than anything else.

Sweetest Person Ever???


:P

[kulaice]

No sarcasm at all = boring forum. I am all for sarcasm when it's done for humor's sake, but I meant when it is coupled with a flame or insult. I've read some real good ones, and there are a few people who are really good at it. I didn't mention anything about anyone changing their ways, just trying to point out that seniors come in all flavors. :)

Ooh, I do envy those that have such quick wit! hehe

[Feeble]

shinsei for mod!

[Shinsei]

meh, all those shin for mod posts went out the window at the rollback. Those were amusing :P

[Burn Baby Burn]

Well thats a tad bit obvious.

[vanquisher]

Shinsei is the best choice for a European based mod. He's cute, loved by the community, and the Arena.net employees (especially Gaile), knows his stuff, is well respected by every part of the TGH community, and is active.

I agree!, I love Shinsei! <3

[Thornblade]

Shin FOR TEH WIN (zorz)

[Shinsei]

vanquisher wins! time to delete the dumb people!

[MeatMan]

this person was probably overdue for this, but better late than never, right? ;)

congrats to the newest Senior Member - SpaceFreak

[Wood Plank]

Never saw SpaceFreak before....

but Congrats! ;)

[Age]

Sorry Kara a little late as some one who I respect on TGH.I hope you are enjoying it being a senior member anyway Congrats. :) :) :) :D :D


Now when will KuntOr become one?

[Tirion Tather]

woah who said he was respected heh wow on that thread for kara he flamed the **** out of her for no reason at all more then 1 example

[Joe Hipstead]

I can't help but feel a little self-conscious when MeatMan says SpaceFreak's senior membership is overdue; maybe I should bake the site staff a cake, or make posts longer then one sentence....whatever works.

[SpaceFreak]

Woa I wasnt expecting that. :P

[Shinsei]

wow on that thread for kara he flamed the **** out of her for no reason at all more then 1 example

Care to take a little look on that thread and notice who made the first 2 posts that were deleted for flame? The only post I have on that thread that's deleted for flame was just a picture. So before you start accusing people of flaming others for no reason at all, maybe you should get your facts straight.

[Virgil]

Care to keep this thread on topic? Grats SpaceFreak!

[Cronos Khan]

Yeah, back on topic here kiddies.....congrats to SpaceFreak for achieveing Seniorority or somethin like that....

[Weezer_Blue]

Does my assholeism keep me from being a senior member? :D

[Citizen]

More than likely.

[LordFu]

:laugh: ROFLMFAO! :laugh:

[Weezer_Blue]

More than likely.
:cry:... I didn't know age and considerateness were linked ;)

[Kara]

Grats to Weezer and Joe for getting snubbed by TGH's staff! ;) I'm sure you'll get a yellow name soon.

Also, grats to Space Freak!!! The guy who puts together the TGH Photo Ops! :D

[IlikeGW]

Does my assholeism keep me from being a senior member? :D

Don't change. Better to have more people honest on this board then pandering for stupid things.

[LordFu]

Being honest and being rude are two different things. As hard as it is to believe after reading the posts here, you don't have to be rude to be honest.

[ZiGGY^]

yay shinsei got banned *dances*
Im not rude Im abrupt, my words lack subtlety and they get me into trouble but ultimately im totally apathetic and objective to most things and people grow to ignore me ;)

[Crispie]

Being honest and being rude are two different things. As hard as it is to believe after reading the posts here, you don't have to be rude to be honest.


lol you took the words out of my mouth. Silly logic, too bad hes banned :P

[Sansui]

Congrats on the new senior member!

Sansui!


oh ya woops that wont happen anytime... soon.

[Citizen]

Never saw SpaceFreak before....

but Congrats! ;)
Been living under a rock lately?

[Wood Plank]

I just dont remember, or im blind or just stupid...


More than likely.

p00ned

[CaericElRoi]

how does one go about becoming a Senior Member? does it require a certain post count??

[Bladen Skull]

how does one go about becoming a Senior Member? does it require a certain post count??

I believe if your helpful and such, you get to be one. Then again, Thornblades a Senior Member :P.

Or you can do what I'm trying to do, and bake Cit a thousand cookies.

[toxic boy]

no just activity and providing nice and semi-productive post, being here a while doesnt hurt or being a girl...like kara or BBB

[Max Taco]

yeah, what you gotta do is not toe the line every post you make, kinda like me.



fun, aint it? There were 2 or 3 times where people got banned and i was rather suprised i came out of it unscathed.

[LordFu]

Maybe your posts were just so mild in comparison to the posts of those who got banned that nobody even noticed. :\

The short answer on becoming a Senior Member:

We select members who we feel contribute to the community in some way. Some produce fan-art, some help newbs, and some are just good to discuss things with. It's pretty subjective and varies person from person.

[Kamikazechicken]

I've always just wondered why Crispie is a Sen. Member, but his name isn't bold like the rest anymore. :boggled:

[Saben]

If you go to group memberships in your personal settings then you can make it so your Senior Membership doesnt show in bold.

[Cronos Khan]

yes, you can also contribute to the site...take a look at ActionJack's chibi comics...they make me squeel! :biggrin:

[Diablo]

I've always just wondered why Crispie is a Sen. Member, but his name isn't bold like the rest anymore. :boggled:

Its a forum bug, because he also is part of the membergroup Lords of the Dead it doesn't show his name bold for some reason :/.

[Crispie]

The sacrifices I take :cry:

[DonD]

Only true senior members can take this :D

[jerez_-]

My god crispie how can you post so much ;)

[Crispie]

Hey Jerez, is Agony disbanding yet? :laugh:

[Narcism]

Owned . . .

[TrapY Access]

Congrats to all the new senior members!... ok i'm a bit late, but all of them i've sene so far deserve it ;)

[Wood Plank]

Hey Jerez, is Agony disbanding yet? :laugh:

Owned . . .


Leader of Agony Guild? :D

[Crispie]

Read the tag under his name :P

[MontahcRemire]

We're not dead yet. In fact, of all the alpha guilds we're one of the few who are still around.

Its like, us and SoW. . .

[Crispie]

Ever hear of the curse of Jerez?

[C H A V E Z]

lol, the curse stops here.

[cynicalcrab]

Yes, Chavez, you definitely are a curse...Oh, wait..you were talking about Jerez...my bad. ;)

[jerez_-]

how dare you use the name of J E R E Z in vain :pirate:

[Crispie]

Hey Jerez make a group membership for Vanguard Reborn, your not even in agony anymore lol.

[Djin]

Given that there has been a large amount of growth here at TGH, we feel that some of our more experienced members should be promoted to the title of Senior Member in order to acknowledge their contributions to the Guild Wars community here at TGH. This title will let the newer members know that the infomation provided by these Senior Members is reliable, and that they can feel comfortable going to them for assistance.

We will be adding members to this usergroup from time to time based on a couple different aspects: mainly for going out of their way to consistently help others here at the forums, and/or for members who have been at TGH for a good while (at least 4 months). This isn't something that people apply or ask for. It's just something that we will be giving at our own discretion to reward those members that have made significant contributions and have been here for a long while.

Members that already have an "Alpha Tester" title can qualify and be promoted to the Senior Member group, but for the remainder of the GW closed alpha/beta, the Alpha Tester title and color will be what shows on his/her posts.

Over the next few days, we'll be giving out the title to those who we know are currently deserving, and forum members can nominate someone who he/she feels deserves it but hasnt yet received it but please wait a few days for things to settle before sending in nominations. If you would like to post feedback on this, feel free to PM myself or another staff member anytime.

Just because you're at a place for a while doesn't really mean they know more then the next person that comes to TGH.

Just my $0.02.

I've alpha, beta and weekly tested, I don't see any fancy titles for me... oh well.

[ZiGGY^]

thats cause nobody loves you, especially not me, I dont get a fancy title cause Im too EXTREME.

[Djin]

I could care less, but I don't think it gives any justice, just shows favorites...

[Cronos Khan]

thats cause nobody loves you, especially not me, I dont get a fancy title cause Im too EXTREME.

We love you Ziggy....yeah that's it. :)

[Max Taco]

I could care less
it shows that it is possible for you to care less, you wouldn't have posted if you didn't care at all.

[Djin]

I just think it's stupid.

I made a comment and I think it's sort of foolish to say "just because you have a senior title means you're experienced..." blah blah blah bull**** to me.

[Virgil]

Stop bickering. This thread is about naming/congratulating senior members, not about discussing criteria (of which there is no defined, as you can clearly see, many members have been here over 4 months and are not senior members).

[Ceres]

I just think it's stupid.

I made a comment and I think it's sort of foolish to say "just because you have a senior title means you're experienced..." blah blah blah bull**** to me.


Well, that is a rather old post. I think few people see a senior member and think "wow, he must be the greatest player in the world" while they see someone simply a member and think "that person must be such a n00b." It's just a little added distinction for someone who's been around awhile and also contributed something.
And of course it's playing favourites. If you're around for 2 yrs but rarely post or you do often enough but nothing that contributes beyond off topic, you're not going to get a senior member title. If the reason you're not a senior member is because you're not liked, there's probably a big reason. I doubt I'd ever see senior member under my name because I make no attempt at really contributing to this community. I post helpful stuff occasionally but I prefer playing the devil's advocate when I post. However, I also realize I don't take this game or this forum serously enough to care. I have no problem with the system since it's up to the owners to choose and this one works fairly well. I've been in the "1337" club in older forums I no longer go to where it really was a popularity contest since there was no basis for determining helpful people. All I ever found it to do is force me to be friends with people I don't like which is why I don't go to them anymore.

[Falquan]

~IM the king of pudding cake~
Lol he should be a senior member just for that genius

[Shinsei]

I've alpha, beta and weekly tested, I don't see any fancy titles for me... oh well.
