![]() Welcome to the very first Reverse Reverse Interview. For those who do not know what this is, it's where the members interview the staff. We hope you enjoy the interview. .sionthede .sionthede, or Jon as we will refer to him as in this interview, is 18 and says that he is rather eccentric and always happy and optomistic. Lewis says: Hello Jon. Thanks for agreeing to be the very first staff member to take part in the Reverse Reverse Interview. Would you like to tell us a little bit about yourself?Jon says: no...Heh well as you know, my name is Jon and I live in Utah. I am a rather happy person and I like to have fun. I like to read and do some video production in my spare time.Lewis says: That's great to hear. So what types of video do you like producing? Jon says: well not to many different types I plan on going into TV news production so I basically practice journalism and other related techniques.Lewis says: Oooooh. Awesome. What types of music do you enjoy listening to? Any specific genre's which take your fancy?Jon says: I generally listen to rock and a bit of metal. Occasionally I delve into techno and dance music as well. I don't really listen to any specific bands though. Lewis says: I could imagine you on the dance floor. Speaking of dancing, can you dance? If you can, what's your favorite style?Jon says: hahaha can I dance...I'd like to think so but no I can't can you? ![]() Lewis says: No, but we'll just say yes to make me look good =o... Anyway, I'm sure you can dance. Everyone has that little bit of jazz in them. Lewis says: Right, lets dive straight into your TZ history. You joined in late 2005, were you active right away? Jon says: I wasn't. I had just come to get a skin. I had been referred there by my cousin. So I came, got a skin from the gallery and left. I came back in January of 06 and that is when I started posting. Slowly I got more active and improved on skinning. Lewis says: Were you naturally good at skinning or did you learn over time? Jon says: I learned over time. I occasionally look back at stuff I made, and I cringe. I was awful XD It just goes to show that even if you suck, if you stick with it you can always improve. Lewis says: So how long did it take for you to "master" the CSS? Jon says: haha I am not a master. I am learning new things with each an every theme I make. It just takes a bit of patience and time and you can do whatever you want. Lewis says: What things do you generally learn with each and every theme? Jon says: just new techniques I guess. A quicker way to do something, etc Lewis says: Alright, thanks. So how did you come Skin RA? What did you enjoy about your time as RA? Jon says: All I really did was practice and apply. Also it is good to help out around the board and be active When I was RA I just enjoyed helping people. Giving them a skin. It can sometimes be a great feeling. ![]() Lewis says: I know what you mean. When you get that great feedback from members when you fill their request. It makes you feel good. So, how long was it until you was promoted to Skin Services?Jon says: I think it was around 6 or 7 months Lewis says: When you were promoted, did you miss being RA? Jon says: Yeah, it is different. You get used to being RA and you sort of fall into a comfort zone. Although I still talk with all the RAs who were there with me. Most of them are staff now ![]() Lewis says: Awww. Recently, there has been a lot of talk of the forum lowering in activity. What are YOUR views on this? Jon says: Of course it is lowering, but people need to stop comparing us to the past. We are the present, the future. We're different. We do what we can, not what they could. Lewis says: What areas of the board do you think need to be worked on? The resources? or the community? Jon says: Resources definitely...sure we're a community but we also need resources. We are starting to get them out more and more. Lets hope that continues Lewis says: I agree. Recently, within the past month, there has been a surge in themes and graphics released into the gallery. I see you have released your fair share of themes but can we expect anything else from you? Is there anything currently in the works? Jon says: Yeah well I am working on some more simple light skins...plus most likely a darker version. Then a few more advanced themes along with some collabs with sakuragi kun ![]() Lewis says: That's great to hear. Finally, two things, if you could improve one thing on the Theme Zone, what would it be and why? And, what makes your TZ experience enjoyable?Jon says: I guess I would like to improve on the atmosphere. Everyone just seems to uptight, Lets relax and enjoy ourselves a bit more. I guess what makes my TZ experience enjoyable is the fact that I can help whoever asks. Lewis says: I would like to thank you for allowing to be interviewed. It was great being able to get a staff members point of view. ![]() Jon says: No problem, I had a good time talking with you ![]() Thank-you for reading this entry of the Reverse Reverse Interview. If you have any ideas or questions for our next staff guest then feel free to PM myself. Edited by Journet, Jul 29 2008, 03:26 PM.
