1) Are you intending to do the Thursday fun on the server you picked completely solo? I only ask since last Thursday two people tried to get in touch with you in-world to see if you needed any assistance and they got no reply whatsoever. I'm asking so people don't waste their time trying. I was intending to get in-game too when you were on (off work this week) and if it's not something you do, I won't be disturbing you. A: Yes, due to the hectic nature of what I am doing, most of my Thursday streams will be solo unless otherwise noted. We will do some special things, and I will do my best to let folks know as ahead of time as possible.
2) What is the protocol with PMs/emails to you? I have been slowly building up player social events on the server you do your Thursday fun on and I have sent you a few PMs (via these forums) regarding player social events and I have had no reply. Maybe I am misunderstanding what you can and can't do as community manager. A: Not at all, PM's are the best way but please keep in mind that I may not get to answer all PM's as I literally get dozens upon dozens of these each day. I am doing my best to get to them, but with everything else that is part of the job these may sometimes fall behind. I will attempt to be more vigilant on the PM's so these do not get missed or fall behind.
Thanks for the answers Andy, I appreciate it. I had a feeling both would be the case, I was feeling quite embarrassed at the reception you have thus far received on our usually great server, so many people did not know you were broadcasting from there with your Thursday fun. We do something similar to you in our kin but with a group of 6, levelling up from the beginning (nicknamed 'Moosing' after the kin player who suggested it first), I am in a new moose group started in Jan 2015, having a lot of fun with that so far If you need assistance and I am online, please don't hesitate - Ranatuor is my main.
If it is ok to mail about player-run events, then I'll continue to send thank you. It's usually just a head's up or seeking advice.
