Greetings, Bulbapedians. My name, according to the top of this page is The dark lord trombonator. But please, let's leave the formalities out of this. You can just call me trom. I've been using wikis since before they were cool: way back in 2005. That was about the same time Bulbapedia got started, but I was over on that other wiki then. I was a regular editor there for about three years or so. It was at that point, 2008, that I stumbled upon this wiki, got brainwashed, and got promoted to administrator. These days, I'm a member of the Editorial Board. I guess that means that sometimes I'm allowed to make decisions about how things get run. More probably, it means you can pester me if you want something done. In the staff restructure of 2010 I was given the portfolio of Community Development Officer. You can read about what that means down below. If you need me for any reason, the talk page is the best way to get a hold of me. I'm on here pretty much every day.
Leaving a note for me on my talk page is usually the best way to get a hold of me. If you want to discuss something vaguely private, an email would be nice. Alternatively you could leave me a private message on the Bulbagarden Forums. I do have AIM, but I'd prefer to keep that address my little secret. Maybe I'll give it to you, if you give me enough cookies. I do enjoy a nice chocolate chip.... |
