You know, this started because I wanted to know just one thing.
Was what was being posted on an ST or AST account the opinion of the Staff or just a personal opinion and how do we tell the difference?
I as a player, when at first glance see a post made under the Screen Name of those that have an Official Title I am imediately inclined to think that they have something Official to say.
When upon further reading of that post see that what was posted was of a Personal nature and not Official, I begin to wonder.
So I asked some questions, made recommendations, voices concerns and offered suggestions.
Yes, I know that a staff member is the same person no matter what screen name they log into, but what they have to post has a much different implication. Personal and Official.
The only way to differenciate between these two types of postings, in my opinion, is to have two seperate accounts. One for Personal use and the other to perform Officail tasks.
This was not meant to be an attack on any one person or position, but it was meant as constructive opinions that may assist in better communications both here and perhaps in-game as well.
