Just making this for those that dont have discord or dont particulary care to get it.
**UPDATE FROM NC AMERICA**
Hello @everyone! We have a big status update regarding this new Discord server and the NC America team. This update is unfortunately late on our team’s part, but it was necessary as the NC America team moved forward through some changes and a new hiring process.
My name is Rownen, and I am *very excited* to be your new community manager here at NC America. As you may have noticed, communication and action has been absent lately from both the community manager and the game producers. After creating this new Discord server, Wissp, our previous community manager moved on to other opportunities. We appreciate Wissp’s hard work that he put into launching the server and we wish him well. Unfortunately, the absence of a community manager during the search for a new candidate put this server in the dark as the NC America team focused on game updates and events.
Additionally, as many of you may have noticed or read about, NCSOFT West has undergone an immense number of recent changes and has now formed the new entity, NC America. Employees that now work under the new NC America banner include our game directors and producers from Lineage II, Blade & Soul, and Aion. All of them have been adjusting to the new NC America work environment but have a renewed sense of optimism for the potential that lies ahead.
With that being said, I’m ready to step in and resume the community manager responsibilities! I’ve been in the MMO community for quite some time and have also been observing NCSOFT go through changes from afar. I was already excited to start making a difference in this community, but I want you all to know that I was briefed on a longer vision of NC America and the direction it wants to take and this is what truly inspired me to move forward with this role.
There is a new beginning for everyone here at NC America. There is a lot of work to be done and new foundations to be built, but I am incredibly excited to be a part of this and look forward to working with you all to create the best experience possible through our games. I have many new ambitions for what I want to bring to this community, but for now, I don’t want to promise anything as I have a lot to learn about the company’s workflows before I get started. In the meantime, my first goal is to get this Discord up and running to its true potential. I will be posting many changes in the upcoming days, starting tomorrow.
Thank you all!
