Leadership Changes

<div style="width: 500px; text-align: center" align="center">There have been a few significant changes made at the top end of the roster in the past week. All of these adjustments are intended to bring clarity to the chain of command and help us to better server the entire community.

First off, JohnT has retired to a newly created Founders position. His participation in recent months has been trumped by "real life" obligations and he felt it best not to remain in the CEO spot while finding it difficult to make time for even answering PM's. As an owner of EdgeGamers Organization LLC, he maintains the right to return to a Community Manager position if his situation improves and he'll keep all of his current access. We still expect to see him in game and in Vent from time to time. The best of luck to John, and we hope for a return to leadership soon! Artimus steps into John's CEO position.

We're proud to announce that GardenGroveVW has accepted a Chief Operating Officer (COO) Community Manager spot. There is no question that Don's hard work with eGO is threaded thoughout the community. He's been a trusted "go-to" guy for many of you, and his opinions have influenced policy from the very beginning. Elevating him to the top of the roster continues this and makes us stronger.

Stepping into GGVW's spot on the Council roster is 2sl0w. James is one of eGO's longest standing Division Leaders and was instrumental in the founding of our EVE Online division. His forward thinking and specialty for motivating people has been a major element to EVE's early success, and we hope to tap into it for the good of the whole clan.

These are exciting changes for eGO as we approach our 4 year anniversary!</div>​

John man I personally appreciate everything you have done to make this community so great
and the things that you have inspired members such as myself to strive to achieve the goal
that you and the other community managers set out to make for this gaming community.

Don you have always amazed me with you know how and skill personally this one is way overdue
for you man! You have helped eGO in so many immeasurable ways most people can't even
begin to understand. I know a small portion of what you do and it still confuses the crap
outa me !

James this one ,again, is most definitely overdue! You were one of the greatest assets to
the cod division in its time of need. You also we're instrumental in creating and developing
one of the MOST confusing division in terms of the game that eGO has known! I can't say
anything but this is so well deserved and in my eyes you are one of the most chill ,cool, calm
,and collected people here.

To all of you congrats! I know that John it was stressful ,but now you get to deal with those
beautiful kids of yours..um wait I mean spend precious time with them .

Night guys,
Kevan

eGO has such an excellent leadership group, I am confident it will continue to be progressive and successful. Those that faithfully manage/admin/lead my hat is off to you. In real life finding extra time can be extremely difficult, I applaud all of you for selflessly giving to this community.

John, hang it there bud.. im with yea.

 

[Silent Ghost]

Congrats!! Keep doing a great job!!

 

[chapp]

I'm sorry to see you step down John. But we all know that real life always takes precedence over gaming. I wish you the best of luck in future endeavors. I hope you still pop in from time to time.

Artimus, congratulations! I couldn't have imagined anyone more qualified to take over John's position. I know you will continue to do great things for eGO.

GG, you have been "the" technical backbone of eGO since I started(which isn't all that long ago). This promotion is VERY well deserved.

2slow, although I don't know you that well, all of leadership in CoD has spoken very highly of you. I am sure this promotion was well deserved also.

re:

Thanks for recruiting me John and I know what you doing is for the best for your family. Family is always first in my book.

 

[Facey]

Goooooooooooooo Arty! Thanks to all of you who help keep eGO in line!

 

[Darth]

Ok, heres what im going to say.

4 years ago, im glad JohnT got banned from servers because if he hadnt there would be no eGO!

JohnT along with the other founders have created something special here. eGO is like my second home, i will never leave and i will never say goodbye because eGO will always be here.

Congratulations to Garden (my bestest bud ) and 2slow.

I hope JohnT returns soon as eGO will never be the same without him.

 

[TrollFace]

Gratz!

 

[Sumac]

I haven't talked to all of you personally, but I want to say thanks all the same. The servers/community have been great, and all the people here are top notch so thanks for all that you guys do, gl to JohnT and congrats to the rest.

 

[Fluxion]

Take care. Grats to those involved.

 

[Old Monkei]

Real Life trumps gaming as I am in similiar situation. Thank you for all you have done John and hope to see you in game and maybe back at the helm one day

Huge Grats too all stepping up to thier respective rolls. Edgegamers will continue to grow and prosper because of the dedication and hard work of those who care; from the top of leadership to the new e's just coming on board

 

[Artimus]

I will truly miss working along side my partner and brother in law, JohnT and hope he returns to us very soon.

Thanks to everyone who has commented here and posted on my eGO "wall" with kind words.

I'm thrilled to be moving forward in an exciting way with Don, James and the rest of our fine leadership team. Lets rock!
