#REDIRECT [[:Category:GameMasters]] |
|||
A GameMaster is a member of the [http://www.play.net/corporate/ Simutronics] staff involved with in-game creation, events, policy enforcement, and more. GameMasters can be separated into two primary categories: Customer Experience and Development. |
|||
==Customer Experience GM== |
|||
*A Customer Experience GM handles most customer interaction. This interaction ranges from answering questions about technical issues and basic gameplay, to running merchant events and major invasions or storylines. Some Customer Experience GMs also work with Weddings, monitor the public message boards, perform liaison duties between the players and the Development team, and handle all types of player concerns and feedback. |
|||
==Develoment GM== |
|||
*A Development Team GM does not generally work directly with customers, choosing to focus mainly on creation and system coding. They are the designers of the game, and participate not only in the implementation and development of ideas, but also in the physical creation of them. This can be something as simple as the simple addition of a new verb to something as complicated as a massive change in the core game mechanics. |
|||
=GameMaster Ranks= |
|||
GameMasters progress through a series of ranks as their experience and responsibilities grow: |
|||
*Assistant GameMaster (AGM) |
|||
*Full GameMaster (FGM) |
|||
*Senior GameMaster (SGM) |
