David Bass Comments on Fansite Communication, Virtual Meeting

Nov 032011
 

Yesterday we posted a transcript of a portion of Senior Community Coordinator David Bass’ interview on the Mos Eisley Radio podcast. This generated a good conversation in the Comments section which prompted David Bass himself to respond with the acknowledgement that it can be difficult for new fansites to find their way. He also talked about a virtual meeting with more fansites. When one commenter asked how BioWare supports the fansite community, David wrote:

What David Bass Said

Nov 022011
 

There has been some discussion about what Senior Community Coordinator David Bass said on a recent Mos Eisley Radio podcast with regards to their plans to host a second Fan Site Summit next week. Some sites have claimed that David Bass dissed all the uninvited fansites by saying that they would die off after SWTOR launches. We thought it would be useful to post a transcript of the section under contention. The following section begins at 26:22 of the podcast.

David: This is actually more of a fansite meeting, I want to say, between us and the sites we’re bringing out because we want to kind of take a look at the post-launch landscape for fansites. One of the problems that a lot of communities have, a lot of MMO communities have, is that before launch there’s this huge excitement – I call it the honeymoon phase – it’s like when everyone’s really excited about the game and the game can do no wrong.

Carla, Kathy, and Roxanne join Zach and Evan on the latest episode of Mos Eisley Radio.  We had fun debating the pros and cons of the text crawl, answering listener mail, and playing the MMO Loser game.

Mos Eisley Radio’s Brooks Guthrie Hired by BioWare

Apr 042011
 

UPDATE: Zach Brown introduces his new co-host, Evan, on the MER forums here.

Today Brooks Guthrie, one of the hosts of the popular podcast Mos Eisley Radio, starts his new job as audio editor for the team that produces the SWTOR videos at BioWare Austin.  While this is sad news for those who have enjoyed listening to Brooks and Zach shoot the breeze over that rickety card table and in Brooks’ grandmother’s creaky chair, it is of course a dream come true for one of the nicest guys in the podcast community and we wish him bucketloads of best wishes.

In MER’s most recent podcast and on a forums post, Brooks made it clear that Mos Eisley Radio and Open Bounty will continue to deliver the same great content with Zach Brown and a new host, as yet unannounced.

Fun fact: Brooks sits next to Brandon Miletta, formerly of TOROcast.
