Happy Birthday Aldarion! |

For those of you who dont know, Aldarion celebrated his birthday this Thursday and we thought wed gather a few thoughts from staff and players about him as a player, a friend and a Buzz Editor.
Just to explain, as Im sure Aldarion would kill me if I didnt... I did have to threaten to quit the Buzz if this article wasnt published in order to get this into this weeks edition! Were now 11 issues into Aldarions tenure at the Buzz and when his birthday came up we thought (very last minute) that wed gather some peoples opinions on him as a player, a crew mate, and a Buzz editor... and here they are. Please feel
Aldarion is a hero to me. I remember thinking to myself as a small boy, at just the age of 17, when I grow up I want to be like Aldarion. He's proven himself to be a skillful Buzz Editor, maintaining the level of high quality we've come to expect from the Buzz, and he's even managed to write two full issues all by his lonesome despite the lack of news, impressive work.

I would like to thank Aldarion for being such a great and helpful editor. If it wasnt for him, the Buzz would not look the way it looks now. And although his accounts get killed a lot, he always manages to climb up very quickly, and in a decent and honest way.That all being said, I think Aldarion deserves a well-meant Happy Birthday!

Although I haven't been on much so I can't really say much. It looks like he's doing a good job with it considering he was just kind of thrown into that position fairly quickly (Mika was trained by Nyx, Sean was trained by Mika etc). But it looks like he is doing a good job and trying his best to keep the players entertained in an otherwise mundane game.

Aldarion has made a good impression and taken over the Buzz smoothly since making Editor only
a short time after returning to the team, and I look forward to many issues working alongside him. Happy Birthday!

Aldarion! What can I say? You da man pops into my head first then next comes you my man! (You just don't know it yet). But in all seriousness you have done excellent work in providing the game with a weekly virtual newspaper. Even when no one else wrote in you still got the issue out. So in your time as editor you have done nothing less than a fantastic job and for that I would say thanks and Happy Birthday.

Well, Ive been in many, many crews with him, with his good dose of humour it's always nice to be with him in a crew. Also he plays the game serious which is positive for the crew. Also he is a good editor of the buzz, he puts much energy in to it.

Ive been writing for the Buzz while 4 different editors have been pressing publish, and due to his lack of editorial training Aldarion should be the worst, by rights. But he isnt, not that Ive made it easy for him; leaving him in the lurch without me writing and sometimes him even having to publish alone. Hes coped with some boring weeks, lack of writers work and created some great issues! Its been a pleasure to have worked for and with you and I hope to continue doing so, Happy Birthday!

The Buzz has always had Editors who have given it their 100% to make sure every release comes out in time and gives a certain grade of quality, Aldarion is not the exception. Ever since he took charge of the Buzz, we have seen him very dedicated to it and trying his best to keep it alive. There is no hiding that BL is not at its greatest hour, but Alda has been there doing whatever he can. By this, I mean that he has published issues where it was mostly him and when almost nothing new was going in the game. He had to take charge in a complicated time and has done the best of it. As a player, this is no exception. He is one to always stumble upon the forums and be respectful to other players. There is no doubt in my mind that he is an asset to this game, as there are so many others out there. Happy Birthday Alda!
