How has DeeJ NOT done his "job?"

As far as I know, DeeJ's official position is "community manager" (if this is incorrect, stop reading here). Now, curious as to what this entails, I decided to do a quick Google search for the term "community manager" and was given this definition via Wikkipedia: [i]"An online community manager builds, grows, and manages online communities, often around a brand or cause."[/i] My question is this, how has DeeJ failed? I will add my thoughts later, first, let's see what the "community" (#sarire) has to say. First edit: this is not a suck up post, I'm here to defend a member of this community who I've seen on these forums for years. For those of you who have the older accounts yet still persist that I'm doing nothing but looking for attention make me sick. Second edit: I'm seeing a lot of replies saying "the forums could be better" or even "the forums [i]were[/i] better." My post was never about him doing better or worse with destiny as opposed to when he was on the forums during the Halo era, only if he is doing his job as of now. I too think he's slacked off, he could be doing more, but consider this: [u]would you be able to do a better job?[/u]

  • There are racist posts all over the forums which have not been moderated. Homophobia is tolerated on a daily basis. DeeJ posts once, perhaps twice, a week with an over edited, committee written, post which usually has very little reference to what gamers are talking about. He barely plays the game and frequently posts how he doesn't "have any knowledge of that process" and doesn't ever follow up. The 'Xur has been extended" post, DeeJs own post, is still open to new comments despite how it's being used for misinformation (albeit funny) every Sunday. Let's not even get started on how useless he is to us as a mouthpiece to the developers. In the words of Al Pacino "he's an absentee landlord ". The community is not being managed. Hence the community manager is not doing his job. Some people are new to multilayer online games like this. I'm not. Ive played dozens over the years, been part of more communities like this than I can remember. I don't recall a community manager as bad as DeeJ.
