Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Hi, I'm Cercul1

As a new staff I'd like to introduce myself by answering some questions.  If there's a question you wanna ask that isn't already listed, ask and I'll try to reply as soon as possible.

"How is your name pronounced?"
Like circle 1

"How long have you played EE?"
I've been playing since September 2011

"Why the 1 at the end of your name?"
Idk, I own Cercul as well, but it seemed empty without a number so I added the 1

"All this guy does is ask noob questions on the forums, why'd he get picked"
I'm new to making bots, not programming.  My main job is a software engineer, I'm currently in computer science and software engineering classes, and I've been programming as a hobby for 7 years.

"Why do you use the indian smiley, are you Native American?"
No, I'm not.  It just seemed like an under-used smiley so I thought I'd use it and it stuck.

Tbh, idk.  I've been busy getting everything set up to work on ee.

I can't speak for him, but I do know he doesn't have an account on the forums and said he doesn't plan on making one.

I'm not sure what the split is exactly, but I'm pretty sure most of my time will be spent on the offline client and smaller updates for ee.  However, I should be joining eeu later in the development.

You didn't had questions regarding only EE bot creation but also basic programming elements, and basic C# related questions.

For example, less than 2 and a half years ago, you had no knowledge of reading and writing to a text file. So in 4 years of programming experience, you haven't ever done this essential thing, and couldn't search on your own how to do it?

I was also thinking of using a text file, but I'd also need help with that.

Over a period of 9 months (almost a year) you couldn't figure out how to do it. You created 3 different topics on the same basic thing, although being answered a couple of times:
https://forums.everybodyedits.com/viewt … p?id=33454 https://forums.everybodyedits.com/viewt … p?id=35679 https://forums.everybodyedits.com/viewt … p?id=37275

And not only trivial questions, but also demands: https://forums.everybodyedits.com/viewt … p?id=34122

Having so many leaks of basic experience makes me wonder how do you balance your time between university, your supposedly side job(which is full-time / part-time, or is actually free-lancing?), and EE.

Good luck, have fun, be useful, don’t take part in drama, and step down gracefully if the time comes.

I hope people didn't actually say this much. If they did, it just shows why our community never gets new players.

Why post there when this is related to game business though?

I wouldn't be worried since this is like every programmer I've heard stories from.

Welcome to staff. May the community not be harsh on you and actually give you a chance. I'm sure you'll fare very well.

I was just learning c# at the time, but it wasn't my main so I hadn't put much time towards it.  However lately I've learning it more and am much more proficient in it.

Re: Hi, I'm Cercul1

I feel like a lot of you are upset because you're better programmers and you feel you should have been chosen instead.  Yes, I agree there are definitely better programmers than me.  The best guess as to why Xenon chose me is that I still do have experience and I've known him a while and he knows I won't create drama with him.  Regardless of what you say/do, I still got chosen.  Maybe in the future if we need another dev you'll be chosen, but know he's gonna want someone who gets along with the rest of the staff.

Exactly. He is incapable of handling criticism, while proceeding to fire two staff for differing opinions, and one more for telling him he was acting unprofessional after firing the two.
At this moment, he's busy searching for anyone who he thinks won't rock the boat, regardless of whether what he is doing is correct or not. In essence, he wants a team that sucks up to him at every turn, sure sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Welcome, anyhow. You'll learn to hate it.

It's normal for a company to not hire someone due to a lack of professionalism and if they're constantly causing drama.

Re: Hi, I'm Cercul1

Constructive criticism is a very valuable asset nonetheless. It might seem as a road bump in short terms, but in the long run leads not to middle grounds, but to a more concise and better solutions for all.
I find it plausible that there are positive constructive disagreements within the staff already, and it's for the better not to be disclosed to public for stability reasons, but I do also believe that  Xeno has lately over-stepped in this discussions, and made direct decisions without any extended consultation.

I don't think you're very aware of situation that unfolded or haven't heard from anyone else beyond Xenonetix. As expected, the response I get is purely defensive from you.

Xenonetix caused the drama by firing his staff. He was criticized after he went into public forums, both here and Discord, and proceeded to rant and rave with half-assed excuses.
