Who is Footkerchief?
« on: April 07, 2010, 06:11:21 am »
Hey, I have been here a while but one thing I never knew was who exactly Footkerchief is... He isnt a mod on these forums, and he seems to be good at using the search function or something, so I assumed he was just a very helpful and active player, but then it turns out he is editing and removing bugs from the bug tracker. So, what is his... Job? Or is he just a helpful player?

In order to improve the universe's frame rate, we must all throw rocks into volcanoes and then do absolutely nothing, worldwide, for a week, to take pressure off pathfinding.

On other forums, helpers like him are called janitors.  They are not quite mods, but they do what needs to be done, and everything works out better for it.

Why not just pop on IRC and ask him yourself.

Darn you Dasleah for getting there first!

I guess he's part of the team that's kinda appearing including (forgive my spelling) threetoes, captainastic, boughan, Rainseeker and maybe a few others I can't remember atm who are helping Toady out more than most. I think Foot and Boughan had something to do with the new website too..

That's not IRC is it... Is there actually an official DF IRC channel?

He's a helpful person who has risen up in the ranks by earning Toady's trust for being so helpful. He currently has "Manager" powers on the bugtracking (and thank god someone does) and also seems to be helping a bit more behind the scenes.

Yeah because if it was left to ToadyOne alone that would be x4 time to fix bugs.

Pretty much, yeah. Especially with all these duplicates and people reporting non-bugs, the system would be clogged so heavily Toady would have to spend a couple of hours sorting through it just to find legitimate bugs.
