I actually respect the fact that he stepped aside, i did enjoy a couple of his events, but it took him so much time to realize that his space could be filled by someone more challenging & committed who can probably invest more time to create better action & fun on the server

Let us help the lovely folk at Broadsword recruit a new EM for Europa. Please feel free to help Gandalf, you know we deeply value your world wisdom and acumen, not forgetting your deep grasp of important UO economics

*****
Wanted! Event Moderator for the Europa Shard of Ultima Online.
Salary: Minimal, enough to cover a small legal loophole. Much of this role will take place during evenings and weekends and will involve preparation behind the scenes.

Other Rewards: Working with a grateful audience, enriching the playtime and enjoyment of players, developing rich and imaginative, creative story lines, taking pleasure at seeing the enjoyment of others. You will be treated warmly by the, generally decent and friendly, folk of Europa.

Warning:
To fulfil this role you should be aware that sometimes you will encounter a small number of ill behaved, self entitled players who feel it is within their rights to insult and demean your efforts whilst contributing nothing of their own. Mere adventure and storytelling is not enough for these folk, they require pixellated shinies to placate their needy, greedy, vacuous existence. They will whine and bleat when not given attention, whimper when they fail to be rewarded for even the slightest effort, they will take to public forums to garner attention when they get none ingame. The normal players of Europa ignore these creatures for the insignificant, trolling worms that they are, but these tiresome weasals will likely be a royal pain in your ass for the time you work for us.

Applications by email to @Mesanna and @Kyronix .

I can see the likely applicants now! Rushing for their keyboards, falling over themselves to come and spend time with us...and of course the likes of you..Gandalf.

No, serious question now, is a player allowed to become EM on his active shard? Im entirely sure that it is forbidden for advisors.

Officially, no a player is not allowed to become an EM on their main shard.... However there have been a couple of exceptions in the past. I'm not sure if the exceptions were actually approved by the developers or if those couple of people just lied about what their main shard was... but it has happened.

Well if they are still going by that rule then options will be severely limited because they dont really want you EM'ing on different timezones either.

If you've been around Stratics long enough - you've probably seen some of the accusations of favoritism / corruption and whatever else thrown against the EM's when it comes to who gets what drops. Having a known player become an EM of a shard he/she plays on would only compound this perception. While a worthy idea, it would be too much of a conflict of interest.
