Community Ambassadors Assemble

aldriq

All the new avatars look fantastic... Ambassadors show not just great commitment, but also great taste

I literally never heard of these people, except maybe seeing tureuls on the forums, and I've been playing (on and off) since launch. Why weren't Alcast or Gilliam promoted to whatever this is? You know, people that actually do something productive towards the community..

You got me there. Although I've never heard of Gilliam, so I think we're even.

@enodoc if you're doing any kind of serious end game content, you're bound to hear of him. :P anyways I didn't mean it to be offensive, I really have no idea what this is, I just expected them to be chosen for whatever "community boss" thing ever comes up, as they're constantly doing tremendous work to improve our end game quality.

In order to become an ambassador that person has to be nominated by other players. It also has to do more with actual community rather than giving builds that help people play. Forum involvement is a big part of it, because it is a 'position' on the forum. Helping people with troubles, pointing them to resources, being knowledgeable about the game as a whole.

Not saying that your two guys aren't qualified, but this is why. First part is someone has to fill out the form putting their name forward.

Totally love the Community Spotlight. I somewhat feel that all that creative talent here is not as visible, so it's really good for that.

@ZOS_GinaBruno
We typically share a lot of community creations on our Twitter and Tumblr pages. Do you have ideas how we can make these more visible? We'd love to hear them.

I do receive the Twitter alerts when community art is retweeted. I'm not sure if Facebook would also be a worthwhile place to post community creations. But if you're trying to make these things more visible to forum-goers specifically, maybe set up a "FEATURED" tag, similar to the "ANOUNCEMENT" tag, and have it be something a moderator can apply to a thread created by a community member. This would stick the thread to the top of the "Recent Disccusion" page. This could be for anything from artwork posted to interesting threads that are worth broad community attention. So every few days or weekly, you could set a differnet thread as "Featured." Like this week, the write up that @MissBizz did for making the most of the Midyear Mayhem event would be a perfect selection. Let that ride through the event so it's visibility doesn't just rely on people continually posting in it.

Totally wasn't me. That was @JoyDivsion ( @Joy_Division ? Are those both you?) But totally see what you're suggesting.

There is only one of me (Joy_Division)

If you get selected to be a Community Ambassador, can you still get forum bans? I am asking for a friend...

What ever happened to the Tamriel Crier?
