The Gina Appreciation Thread

kylewwefan · July 2019

I come back to check out the forum after a nice long weekend and Tamriel is on fire.

Oh, it was Gina just released some groovy patch notes.

What’s this? Interesting. Uhm. Wow! That’s a lot of stuff is gonna change. Like a whole lotta stuff!

Now I gotta wait for the smart people to tell me if I’m a gonna suck? Or will I be ok still? Perhaps all a sudden I become OP. I dont know wtf is going on. Looks like it’s gonna be fun trying a lot of new things out. Can’t wait!

Edit to add: totally forgot, Cheers to Gina! And Rich and Matt, and Jessica and the rest of your dev team. Keep the game fun!

ps, that Music guy...that made red diamond...give him a wedgie for that.

Good and thoughtful idea on the post OP. Positivity is much needed in these forums.

Gina and the other community managers are amazing and not the problem, it's the state of the game itself.

Thank YOU Gina and community managers for all you do and put up with, I've been in a similar position and don't envy all the hell you all have to endure from the public day in and day out. Just know we do appreciate YOU.

A thankless, thankless task.

This one raises a fishy to you!

She's being thanked in cash.
Otherwise, she would have left by now.

So, if an EMT saved your life, you’d tell them they get paid to do it instead of saying thanks? I’m not comparing community manager to this, I’m analyzing the logic.

She's not an EMT. I did thank the ambos that took me on a one hour trip to hospital after a bizarre window/couch/achilles tendon mishap. They are public servants that don't get paid anywhere near what they should; to put up with what gets thrown at them at 2AM.
Analogy is wro-ong! Do it again!

If she's really good, she would have been head hunted by other companies.
If she has been, then ZOS have kept her on board somehow.

Really, she doesn't need my thanks. She would run screaming from here ages ago if she needed the adoration of the plebs.

She may not need it, but shes going to get it anyway.

Thank you Gina-Sama-Sensei-Senpai-Samaaa......KUN.

Only these Forums would say this lmfao. I employ 11,000 people and most are payed well. I employ 13 community managers in 13 states all who make 75k or more a year.

They are payed to put up with crap. Again only this community.

If you employ 11,000 people, I would think you could spell “paid”.

Meh, I'd like more official communication on the forums. There's a lot of improvements needed. Im not impressed at all.

what? zos has a discord? O_O

The community team and some of the devs are in a few community made ones to keep an eye on issues with the game and communicate with the community.

Not sure which that image was taken from though.
And yes, massive respect for Gina as she has to deal with a lot of stuff she shouldn't and puts in some crazy extra hours for the benefit of the community.

Contrary to popular believe the ZOS team puts in a lot of effort and love to give us the game.

It is very hard work to chase one's own shadow.

I caught mine and sewed it back on.

I'm sorry you had to work in the middle of an extended weekend, Gina. I'm sorry you have to deal with people who think that because they paid for a service you became a remote control that has to respond as soon as a button is clicked.

Thank you for keeping up a good attitude and a good sense of humor.

(I was so sad to see the patch notes go up on a Saturday evening. Not because of its content, but because you had to do it right there and then)

whteva4eva · July 2019

breathingstars · July 2019

Khajiit will have you know she paid for that dinner. Leaving the salad was the obvious choice though.

An NPC that stands in a public square and is surrounded by other NPCs making complaints to them.

Taloros · July 2019

Posting the patch notes was a good decision.

Zacuel · July 2019

They should add a secret Gina sheep level to the game.

Don't worry... The sheep have nothing to do with all of you...

D0PAMINE · July 2019

Gine is a sweetheart.

U Gina! Thank you for all you do for the community!

This thread looks an awful lot like an abusive spouse apologising after giving you a black eye.

If I were rationalizing to a FIFA community manager or ZoS developer/engineer, yes it would be!

Who? What are you talking about?

Illuvatarr · July 2019

She is great and really sweet.

Hot too so that just makes it that much better.

DjMuscleboy02 · July 2019

Gina catches so much *** for just making pretty and easy-to-read patch notes. She needs some flowers so she knows we don't hate her

You should've stopped after your first sentence. The second was unnecessary and creepy.
