    Hey everyone,

    I'm in the process of setting up my annual meeting with the Blazers to try and get some swag, and meet and greets, and hopefully a suite game for the forum this season. Also as some of you know I had a tragedy in the family this summer. Resulting in me not being around here as much as I usually am.

    I'm also in the very early stages of what could be something special for us. Something that would show not only what a great forum this is but what a great community of fans we are. I can't really share more at this time but I think some of you will like it.

    One of the things I'm really pushing for is us having more interaction with the players. While we won't ever get to go to their houses and hang out with them, we have in the past been able to submit questions and get replies. I'm hoping for us to be able to Q & A the entire team this year and maybe a few others. With that in mind it takes someone with far greater writing skills that I have to take all of our random questions and edit and format them into a fun and engaging interview for us and the person being interviewed. I need someone who knows how to write to do this for us.

    Also, @Strenuus and @PtldPlatypus could use a little help from time to time cleaning up the personal insults and keeping this place fun for everyone.

    Chris Craig is a great writer, I think we can all agree on that. Also he is someone who many of you have met in person, some even become friends with. He's someone who goes to and enjoys forum events. He's run season long contests. He likes this crazy little community. Also, while not going into detail he has in the past put me in my place. And that is always a good thing. I can't think of a better addition to staff around here.

    I reached out to him in private and he's actually interested.

    Anyway, I would like to add Chris to the staff but that is something we vote on around here.

    What do you say?

    Poll will be open until Tuesday night.

    Does this mean he is going to take your job? Because if that's true, hell, he's got my vote!

    Serious answer, I made the voting anonymous when I set up the poll. Even I won't see who voted which way.

    I voted no because fuck all of you mods!


    *I did vote no, but only because I'm sure he'll get elected and my actual vote is "I don't really care one way or the other, but I'll vote no because I'm an asshole."

    Much like voting for Trump, voting for him will probably bite me in the ass later.

    I will add though, that bringing @Chris Craig on board would still leave RipCityTwo "short staffed".

    Hey @Chris Craig staff gets 50% off on bannings. Only $25 if you want me to get rid of this guy.
