[QUOTE="Tao, post: 4363322, member: 62326"] FWIW, I am exactly as my name here would indicate: WizO Tao. My actual name is Matthew Lee Myers, and I was originally hired by the former head of the admin WizO team (-Ras, aka Hydragon) to help launch Knowledge Arcana magazine and to redesign parts of the front end of the boards and the moderation interface. Unfortunately, Gleemax came down and crushed those hopes and dreams, but since then I've been working as a regular WizO on the boards (though I am the last WizO standing that is still bearing the Admin WizO title, so I kind of hang onto it as a mark of pride). That's the full history of my involvement with Wizards of the Coast. I'm just a peon. Like I said, this is hardly the conspiracy that people are making it out to be. I was just surprised that you would be so publicly dismissive of former coworkers, especially since, from what I recall, Hydragon tended to speak highly of you when I would complain about the boards when I was first hired to work with them a few years back. Wasn't questioning the meaning. Simply questioning whether your application of the word was appropriate considering the revelation of a fairly obvious pot-kettle situation. As a member of the cust-serve department, I would figure it obvious why I took offense to that statement. Especially when I trekked over here to try to post to keep people updated as best I could. Not that its even my job to. Not that anyone at WotC even wants me to. Just because I thought people might care. Well, several people seemed to think I was addressing Morrus, rather than Micheal Morris... I apologized if I had been unclear in my references, and for the confusion that it might have caused. Wow, I can't even apologize to your satisfaction. ;) [/QUOTE]
