Welcome, Commissioner Flamm!

Hello all!

It is my pleasure to congratulate Flammole for his promotion to the rank of server Commissioner!

Flammole comes to us with an interesting history, having been a Moderator on the Dravics' server, and the owner of the Skyscraper server; even so, for the longest time, he appeared to favor a quiet simple life on Gunia's as well as our server early on. He was a great quiet player, hard working both in-game and IRL, and one of the more mature players to join us from the Dravics server. He also earned the trust of both old and new players alike, but never really showed interest in being anything more than a simple player, hence why he was left largely alone to be free to enjoy the fun simple life of a free player. That all changed during the Skyscraper debacle when he not only took it upon himself to fund and manage that server on behalf of his very close friends, but he also displayed the moral fortitude and maturity to rise above the hateful antics of some, and engaged in real diplomacy with staff on our server. He was the voice of reason amid the chaos, and even after that server dissolved he was humble and grateful for the hand we extended in hosting its map and accepting some of its players. Displaying amazing leadership in getting these people acquainted with our values and working to heal many of the wounds caused by the debacle (all the while never forgetting the roots that originally made him such an appealing player), this earned him a promotion to Deputy status through which he has only enhanced his many contributions to our server. For this he has proven to be an individual who can be entrusted with the greater Commissioner powers, as well as our respect and admiration. I believe with the new opportunities and responsibilities he will give this server the kind of utmost dedication that he has offered to many other servers before.

Flammole was voted in through a parliamentary-style staff election featuring a 81% voter turnout, with 11 votes in favor and two abstains.

I want to thank everyone who participated for giving Flammole such an enthusiastic vote of confidence!
