CL11 Iain Interview
CL11 Iain
What attracted you to the Outpost initially, and made you stick around?
The people. When I first logged in, I was expecting an unfriendly environment. I was made to feel welcome.

What was your first impression and, if at all, has that changed?
"Ooooh, Star Trek esque!" Now, I'm not so Trek-oriented. I like talking to OTFers in general, not just about Trek.

What's your favourite change that has occured since you've arrived?
I'm biased, but I really like real-time chat. Pressing "Receive" all the time gets old. (And causes RSI.)

Any suggestions for future changes you would like to see?
I'm going to flip this around. If anyone has ideas for future changes, then get in touch with me.

Is there anyone who no longer drops by that you'd like to see return, and why?
Yes. And because it was fun chatting. (This literally answers the questions.)

Have you ever attended an OTF Union? Who did you meet if yes?
Yes. I've met a bunch of OTFers - both during official and unofficial unions.

Which OTFer would you like to meet and why?
Anyone and everyone with whom I get along.

Who do you get along with most at the Outpost?
Brandi. She and I get along quite well.

Who do you think is the funniest chatter around at the moment?
I crack up whenever Andrew (AJ), Thor (Tycho) and Ray (Hobbie) are in chat together.

What do you think of CL6 David/Xgermz? Go on, be honest... ;)
Fine chap. BNT genius.

Do you blame CL9 Hobbie, or is he misunderstood?
A bit of A, a bit of B. I have yet to find any other person who can combine Bender with Hobbie Klivian like Ray can. D:

Real-time chat: are you a friend or foe?
Implementer, and friend.

What's your best memory of the past year?
Fun times in chat.

What really made you laugh over the past year?
Same as previous answer.

Where do you see the Outpost this time next year?
A bit bigger, and a bit more lively.

Would you vote for CL9 Dmitri in an election?
Sure.

If you could buy any member of the Outpost a beer, who would it be?
HAL. As a big thank you for handling the financial side of things.

If you could be one OTFer for a day, who would you be?
I quite like being myself. Maybe I'd hop into some syndicate member's body, though, and create some fake files just for fun...

You've got one free Level 2 shot: who do you shoot?
Probably Sloppy. His code contains comments referring to me by name. ;-)
