Goldenboko is a recent addition to staff but has quickly found himself in not only the Editor position, helping with news, articles and potentially further interesting activities (not as dirty as it sounds... I think), but also in his recently acquired position of Developer. GB has basically helped us in every area he has seen lacking in assistance, and he has done it well on every occasion.
I remember a very long time ago being unsure of him as a staffer at EoFF - and we're talking years ago as he was alwayss on our radar while he was active. He has shown immense maturity and I can comfortably say that he is someone who I can always rely on. If we could have more members like GB at EoFF, I would be delighted to have them on staff. This guy is part of the future of EoFF and I'm confident that we've only just seen the beginning. I'm confident because he has the confidence, the drive and the ability to go further than most have in order to put EoFF on the map.
He's not the only one, though! With almost every staff member voting, there was a perfect tie in both Highwind Awards this year, which is kind of crazy. At the same time, it's kind of understandable, too. For all the calmness, maturity and ability we seen in GB, there is an equal abundance of enthusiasm, passion and drive found in Jiro. He has this kind of stuff in spades, and he's bloody talented, too. The guy has not only brought together a brand new editorial team, he has taken that team above and beyond anything Eyes on Final Fantasy has ever experienced. We have almost daily updates, news on the internet reaches our frontpage efficiently and it's always of good, legitimate quality, too.
With the help of Freya, GB, Raistlin and more members he has recently been helping, I see Jiro taking EoFF by the scruff of it's neck and pulling it out of it's "recession". When Jiro is at EoFF, EoFF grows. This is something you can't say about any other member. I never believe that EoFF needs any member to grow, but I do believe that Jiro is as close to it as you can get. He reminds me of me when I was younger, and that makes me feel really bloody old, but I egotistically feel it's a good thing, too. I just hope that EoFF can give to Jiro as much as Jiro gives to EoFF, because the guy deserves all the love in the world for the metaphorical sweat he has put into the place. Seriously, it's metaphorically soaked the metaphorical carpet in the staff forum and the stink is unbearable!
Thanks, GB and Jiro. You two make EoFF. Literally.
