Honestly...
I've been here awhile... since Beta?
- Yes, I am a casual gamer, as I have a full time job, but i'm working on it. (Only 33 levels from 50!) lol
- No, I haven't posted much, but I do read what other people have written.
- I require no pay to sit on my bottom and read stuff and reply.
- I want to see my name in red at the top of the posts... bwahaha

Screw that (no offense, CuppaJo) -- I'd love to be GM_Daniel! That has to be one of the best jobs ever.

was actually looking for something slightly more serious than that.

while i do agree with you, by the way.

Police drones for everyone!

I do not know... but I think it is "apply for" like everything else. So unless there is an opening, I don't think you can just be one

Oh, no no, I was being serious. I mean, I would literally like to hold the job position of a Game Master in CoH.

Where's Cryptic's support staff located at? I'm able to relocate

look to the bottom of this board.
click on the Cryptic link.
go to their homepage.
find the "opportunity" link.
Pray that they have a GM opening.

and FYI, they are in San Jose, CA, and relocation is a requirement.

Blade...I can't...stop looking at ...your avatar...mesmerized...

so... mods?

You could just go to another forum and start posting that you play CoH and have posted on their official forums. That way you are community representative.

I don't think a mod will answer because a) they don't want the competition for their jobs and b) Bladebreaker gave the most logical answer of checking both Cryptic's and NCSofts sites for job opportunities.

And, uh.. good luck with that.

Yeah i'm pretty sure your resume is going to have to be up to date. I'd guess you'd have to go thru an interview process, impress them, and then move to, well someone said California, i know NCSoft is in Texas as well.

I don't see any way around needing a degree, experience with customers/infopop and possibly some Quality Assurance Testing.

Just remember, that in order to gain the job of CoH Online Community Rep you must first:

A) Collect the golden chalice filled with the life giving ambrosia, the nector of the gods themselves. (Translation: "Get enough Squishees from the Local 7-11 for the Cryptic Staff")

B) Contend with the slavering troll beasts in the pit of dispair. (Translation: "Work in the Cryptic Support Offices after the latest changes to Hasten, Stamina, Invincibility, Smoke Grenade, and anything else")

C: Brave the Trial by Fire. (Translation: "Walk through the Hallways of Cryptic while Geko, Positron, Bridger, and Statesman have their weekly Bean Burrito Chillie feasts")

D: Defeat CuppaJo in a steel cage match. (Translation: "Defeat CuppaJo in a steel cage match... after she's learned that the local Starbucks shut down thanks to you")

gotcha.
I did the cryptic link / jump through hoops / to see the info.
So I'm just repeating what I was told. They mentioned San Jose, so I repeated it.
But there's nothing stopping them from having more than one location to do business from

Cryptic's homepage with Job Openings

Oh, and gratz to your friend working on Lineage. Being in the game industry is one of my dreams ... glad to see that there are people who are living theirs (I mean, who doesn't want to work in the game industry?

Thanks. Seeing as how I was serious that CoH GM appeals to me as a job, that's truly helpful.
