VIP in gamespy

[xtend13]

For those who use gamespy and engage in MP games, last night I noticed someone from Eidos was hanging out in the room. His icon said he was not available but I thought I would throw some messages up there in the chat section so maybe he would see them. You never know he might just say something to those guys @ Pyro for us. So the the name was Jason Walker and if you happen to see him maybe you could politely let him know WE WANT A MAP EDITOR! :D

[Athos]

I don't know if the best way to let Eidos and Pyros know of what we want is to constantly hound innocent company members when they are on gamespy......perhaps they just want to enjoy a game and not be bothered by constant requests.

I think this forum is enough in terms of asking things of Eidos

[Gaius Julius]

I'd have to agree with Athos on this one.
Maybe this person is on Gamespy to just play games to escape the world for awhile.
If he should mention Praetorians, or is part of a discussion pertaining to it , then it's ok to put forth your ideas.
If he's there to have some fun, just leave him alone.
Respect is the key here.
You should always show others some, and hopefully they'll return some in your direction. :)

As both Athos and Gaius said the key was respect. He was in a section marked away and was not playing a game or chatting. So like I said I threw up a message that said hi and asked politely for a map editor, now wether or not he actually saw who knows but the point of my post was if you see one of these guys hanging around then maybe just say hi and politely ask. The yelling part in the last part of my post was just for emphasis on wanting a map editor and nothing more. So just like the other guys said be nice and respectful but by no means be timid. Just becasue he works at the game company doesn't mean you can't ask him a question. If he is hanging out in Gamespy he should expect some queries especially if he has himself registered as a "VIP". If he wanted to be left totally alone then I think he wouldn't have registered as a "VIP".......whew....<---------xtend13 gets down from his soapbox. Sorry for the mouthful. ;)
