Hello, everyone! I'd like to introduce myself as the new Manager for Diablo Fans. I've been itching to do something Diablo-related for myself for quite sometime now, and taking on this project was the perfect opportunity. I am very glad to be here on the dfans team and I cannot wait to get things started. Trust me, it'll be all worth it in the end. I've envisioned dfans as the one-stop spot for everything Diablo, and i'm going to do everything in my power to make this so.
With that in mind, just a little bit about me, i've been an avid Blizzard fan since the ripe age of 5 years old, starting with Diablo 1, back in 1995. Since then, I've been doing things to help Blizzard in more ways than one. For about 5 years now, I've been posting on the Technical Support Forums, offering assistance to users who were experiencing technical issues. I was invited to the honorary Blizzard Friends List because of it, and I have been in several of the Alpha's as well. I have also been given tributes in World of Warcraft with the Sixen's Skullcap item and given a page in the Death Knights of Acherus in-game book. Also worth mentioning, i've been staff at sc2pod for a while now.
On a less serious note, i'm a pretty laid back guy. I believe i'm fair, I believe i'll be able to run things pretty smoothly around here. I'm 19, i'm currently attending Arizona State University, and I drive a Celestial Blue Mazda3 (I need to take a new pic, I know). Oh yeah, and I like long walks along the beach... Kidding, I do have a girlfriend though. (Who happens to have played Diablo before and plays Diablo with me occasionally. Yeah, she's awesome.)
Welcome welcome. I hope you enjoy the new position. I think you'll find the community here pretty willing to help with anything you may need.
I've lurked here since 2008 when I first made my account. I did notice something about the community around dfans that I didn't notice anywhere else, and it's a certain something I like.
Oy, sorry for the huge quoted reply. I just kept going, o_o.
Ah yes, I suppose I should have known that. I just looked at the low post count. It's nice to know you're already knowledgeable of the community and such. Anyway, welcome once again and I hope your plans for the site turn out well and help make the site even greater than it currently is.
(wow, it was not easy to type that while my cat tried to grab my hands with his claws each time I stopped petting him with both hands)
yay me too! =D any everything else but the uni and owning the dfans website =O
i dun really bother gettin a diploma or watever, i just get into stuff by showin skillz and a nice portfolio;And if they want work experience... well id ask for a trial period to prove myself. I dunno how lenient they would be where u come from.
Welcome new manager...seems like things are always changing around here. Going for a CS degree, huh. Something I should have done when I was in college, now I'm 27 and going back to school right now learning networking (Cisco). I sure hope the job market is turned around by the time you get out; man I got out and it was total down hill (that was 05). Anyways, I'm sure you will do a great job and hey it never hurts to have some inside points with Blizz.
Hey all, I know I have a low post count, but I've been a lurker here for years (waaaay before D3 was actually announced ) anyway I just thought this was a cause for post. Congrats, you sound like you can do good for this community which is already pretty awesome. And a cool side note, my girlfriend goes to UofA so you guys are rivals, yeah? Fun stuff...

If you're serious, i'll be needing to add Staff, so keep your eye open for Staff positions.
Computer Science, =).
mockery is no longer the Website Administrator, I am. If mockery chooses to hangout here as a normal user that's his choice.

*cough*. But actually, that's not a bad idea.
