When I first decided to accept the Community Manager position here at Paragon Studios, it was partly due to the fact that I would have the opportunity to work with the amazing EMpulse. EM, as we all know her, is easily one of the most respected and well loved Community Professionals in the industry today. She has been a part of the Community scene since its inception and has been an influential voice as Online Community Relations has developed over the last 15 years. As a part of the team that launched City of Heroes, she also has a tie to this Community that I only hope to be able to establish in the years to come.
Having said all of that, it is with a mixture of sadness and joy that we share this news with you: Earlier this year EMpulse made the decision to step down as the Community Lead for Paragon Studios in order to start a family! Not many outside of Paragon actually knew this information; because her pregnancy is considered high risk, she didnt want to announce her departure in case anything had happened. Well, were happy to report that all signs indicate that EMpulse is expecting a healthy baby girl in the near future and will be a proud, first-time, mother at the age of 41! We here at Paragon couldnt be happier for her and wish EM and her family good fortune and prosperity in the years to come.
EMpulse asked me to share her excitement and happiness with you, the COH Community and to tell you that she misses all of you, but that she knows that you will all be in great hands with the Paragon Community Team.
So from the bottom of Paragons, the Communitys, and my, heart, we wish you all the happiness in the world with your bouncing bundle of joy EMpulse!
