Guild Wars, though I have played it sporadically at times during the past two years, has captured my attention the best. I keep coming back to it. Parts of it now bore me, but I have yet to master all of my targeted Professions, explored every single corner of the world, or captured all the Skills I want. I think it’s good that I haven’t had the time to play Guild Wars to the point that I got burned out on the game.

oh great

Add to that the fact that it helps not to be biased. I think its good some parts of the game bore her and others don't. Helps overall that she isnt over the top 100% behind every possible idea within Guild Wars, in my opinion. Means she'll hopefully have the open mind that its also true for some other players and be better able to appreciate a couple sides of an argument or issue.

I notice she says she's a mesmer by nature, and SS is her favorite skill. Maybe at last a dev who think SS should have been a mesmer skill *hides*

Anyway... Welcome and have fun whatever role you are employed to do.

Let me play Data here:

"Interesting...

Inquiry:
Buena means "good" (in feminine).
Obra may mean "piece of work", "performance", "deed".

Does that mean that she is going to do fine things here?"
Hm... I miss Star Trek...

Ahem... let's cntinue... Ok, make a row.
The ones asking about Xunlai Market or complaineing about any 'ecomoney' stuff over there yes, there. Now stand there and wait.
The ones asking just about free stuff to that corner, please.
The ones whining about things which there's nothing that can be done about to the left.
Ah, ok, ok, the ones with suggestions to the right.
Ah... the ones that want to show pokemans just walk away.
Were are the ones with the cat pictures? Come on, we're trying to things in order here!

Ok, spamphasers on 'stun'... and... energize.

Double points weekend to welcome the newbie! Though, I'd say an alcohol-fueled initiation ritual may be more appropriate than sweets

Welcome Regina! I'd like to suggest that when you talk to these players that you wear pyromancer armor so the flames don't burn you.

Looking at her wiki page http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Regina_Buenaobra it says

I am a Community Manager at ArenaNet. I work with my fellow Guild Wars Community Managers, Martin Kerstein, Julien Crevits, and Peter Verhelst to convey your feedback to the ArenaNet developers.

And following the link to Emily's page http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Emily_Diehl it says

Julien Crevits - French Community Relations
Martin Kerstein - European Community Relations manager/German CR
Peter Verhelst - Spanish Community Relations
Regina Buenaobra - Community Relations manager

So is Regina a CRM for the Americas or the overall CRM? Since Emily's page was updated a while ago It may be a promotion..

I guess we'll find out.

Name doesn't quite roll of your tongue in quite the same way as "Gaile Gray". I say a comedy nickname will be required for ease of typing.

Good luck in your new job Regina.
