Hey Rusty,
To start I'd like to point out that there have really only been 3 active staff accounts on here,
myself,
Ed 3, and
Lykke. While I am now the most vocal on the forums and most played in game, it's naive to think I'm the
only staff member. Unfortunately, Lykke is no longer a part of the Cyrene team, but we've still got a lot of people working on it.
(You can barely see the top of my head behind the dual monitors in my office). In this picture you can't see our marketing, social media team, line bosses, etc. so about another 10 or so people missing that work in the other building.
Of course, almost none of them are on the forums, in fact some don't speak much English and/or are embarrassed by their English skills (as the bulk of our workforce is located in South East Asia).
So I act now on two fronts: Community Manager (preforming Lykke's duties) and Developer. Ed 3 is still the head honcho and makes any sort of big announcements (but is usually lurking on here). Not only that, but our game team is expected to ramp up an additional 10 to 15 staff members at the start of the new year.
You can clearly see that we are one of the largest teams in the Entropia Universe (although I may be wrong) along with our ability to ramp up by pulling existing staff from other departments if need be, and our limited by the amount of content we are allowed to release.
We really only need 1 person communicating on here, while the rest of the team is able to focus on working.
I hope this sums everything up.
Cheers,
Kris
