I'm going to explain my roll as Vice President to people right now and explain a bit about myself so there will be no more conflicts of interest.
First off: I'm here to help and support K. He's an old friend I met through and even older friend, and I promised her I'd always help him if I could. But that's not to say I don't enjoy the Guild.
My job is to keep the Guild clean. I don't read every post, but rather skim and make sure posts are in the proper forum and that there's a strong lack of OOC taking place in the IC forums. I make sure everything is up-to-date unless it's a subject K himself is controlling and I make sure that there is a constant flow of RP and life in the Guild. I'm also responsible for spamming the hell out of this Guild, which I do and I've lost access to several of my own Guilds just because I whore out this one. I'm also responsible for accepting members and welcoming them, as well as advising them what to do after they've joined and posted their profiles and if need be registration cards, two things I also make sure are there period. I also take in member feedback and complaints and work to fix them.
Note that I AM NOT a damn therapist. Once upon a time I thought the field of psychiatry was the path I'd follow, but then I realized I hate listening to people b***h. The ONLY PMs I should be receiving are ones that involve misconduct in the Guild (no this is not bitching since it's Guild-related) and ideas for the Guild. Concerns may also be expressed, but this is K's Guild, not mine. I do not EVER want to hear another apology again. Apologies are the most useless waste of time in the world; words mean nothing and actions mean everything. If you're sorry about something, fix it with actions. If you screw up, it is not my job to listen to you whine about it (though in some cases I do need to fix it...) so cry on someone else's shoulder. In the end: I don't give a rat's a** about your personal life or personal problems. I only care about the Guild.
There are certain people I develop bonds with. These people, and I hope they know who they are (this is a rare instance where I will welcome PMs to find out if you're one of these people or not), who I am more than willing to provide support for outside of the Guild, such as that shoulder to cry on or just to talk if need be. If you're not one of these people, then you're only going to receive basic, cold, truthful answers and responses from me and it's idiotic to expect anything more.
Also, if you're not prepared for quid pro quo, then NEVER come to me with questions outside of the Guild.
Furthermore, as we get further and further in to K's story here, it seems I'm having to RP more and more. By no means do I mind this, but it does mean -all of your characters- are in danger. The website attached to my profile will show you absolutely EVERYTHING about my character short of the novel that is his life. It'd be CRP for your character to know what you will after reading it, but I feel you should know what type of enemy you'll be up against.
