    Exclamation Introduction to the clraik staff

    Hello cKers! For the past few days I've been working on compiling information from lots of different people on cK about our lovely staff. I think it's time to get to know them better! They don't bite...much.

    Thank you SO much to everyone who gave me quotes and helped me with little tidbits about each staff member. I couldn't have done it without you!

    Also this wouldn't be possible without the amazing artistic skills of @(you need an account to see links). Love you so much, girl! Thanks for all of your hard work. (heart)

    So let's get to know the clraik staff!



    @(you need an account to see links)


    Joe aka �The Saiyan�

    Joe is a 23-year-old master programmer living it up in Canada. He is best known for making cK and knowing anything and everything about the Neo world. If there was ever a man that started from the bottom and reached the heights in which he focused his attention, it would be him. He�s a pro at computers yet is also still the only person in the world who has a computer without a mic. He can be the most intense person if you don't know him but once you speak to him on a personal level, he is extremely laid back with a great sense of humor. His leadership and methods of handling issues is very old school for sure - almost like a mob boss. Combine that with his intelligence and you've got yourself a true alpha who commands respect wherever he goes. In his spare time, Joe enjoys working out, making the ladies of cK swoon over him, and snuggling with his cat, Mew. He loves Pokemon and is always up to meeting fellow Pokemon lovers.

    Interesting fact about Joe: He hopes to make a positive impact on the entire world someday!

    What cKers have to say about Joe:
    @(you need an account to see links): �I met Joe many years ago when he was pretty new to coding. He was impressed with some of my stuff and sort of looked up to me in some ways. He began to improve his coding skills as time progressed excelling me in some languages and areas for sure. We have been and will be friends for a long time. If it was not for Joe I would of probably been homeless over the last year, I owe him a lot. We are partners in crime now, no one is looking up to anyone and when we put our heads together we are a perfect combination. Me and Joe�s friendship will go on for life even if Neopets dies eventually.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �I followed Joe here from another forum and he's been nothing but kind and fair to the members of cK. I appreciate that he takes the time to answer even the dumbest questions (even from me).�
    @(you need an account to see links): �Despite your god-like status in this community, you seem to be very humble and easily approachable and for that I am thankful.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �You made this into the, by far, the most amazing community I have ever seen. The best part is you allow yourself to be a part of that community. I�ve seen so many owners hold themselves above the rest of us. They rule by fear where you rule by love, and we all respect you for that.�
    @(you need an account to see links): "Joe is definitely the best cKer master we could ever have wished for. Beside working on improving the forum as much as he can, he's a very kind man who truly cares for his members. I'm glad I got to meet you because you are probably one of the main reason why I keep hanging around. Thanks for everything you've done so far for everyone, and also thank you for everything you've done for me. You are truly a keeper."


    Kevin aka "The Ladies Man"


    Kevin is a 24-year-old Canadian who has cK ladies falling for him on the daily. He enjoys long walks on the beach as long as you are a hot woman who will promise him sexy times after. His favorite thing to do is flash his trademark smile on TC and watch the girls fall all over themselves in wonder. He can be stubborn when he wants to be but he has that cheeky grin which doesn't let you stay mad at him for long. Kevin is the dude you want to go out and have a drink with but he'll probably steal your girl so he's the worst wingman ever. In his free time, Kevin enjoy flirting with the pretty ladies, drinking large amounts of alcohol and flexing his ban hammer at every opportunity.

    Interesting fact about Kevin: He has six siblings!

    What cKers have to say about Kevin:
    @(you need an account to see links): �Let's be real here, Betts is the cutest ck mod. I mean look at that smile. And even if he takes shots like a girl, he's also my favorite drinking buddy."
    @(you need an account to see links): �Kevin is a sweetheart, a charmer and someone I'd trust. He's got such a great personality to go with those classic good guy looks and that's a rare find. Whether you need someone to buy off of, to chat with or to just be a friend of, Kevin is the guy you want.�
    @(you need an account to see links): "Kevin's that rugged drunk lumberjack Pretty-Boy-Mod heartthrob type. He isn't as forum public as the other mods but keeps his presence of authority in the banlist and keeping others in check when things get rowdy on forum- but don�t get him wrong, he's always up for a friendly round of drinks."
    @(you need an account to see links): ��you're hot, and really good with computers and you help people a lot. One of my favorite mods.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �Kevin is... mystifying. The life he lives is one that only he could possibly make work, hahah. He does what it takes and has the determination to follow through on what he says he can do - no matter the costs. He's incredibly business-minded, but he's (usually) quick to take the time to develop true friendships with those he's around. For the world we live in on cK, he's struck a perfect balance between personal friendships and business relationships - close enough to give people a real insight into his personality and his life, close enough to understand them, without getting SO close that it clouds his judgment or keeps him from realizing and doing what is best for the forum. He's quick to give people chances, but aloof enough to know when those chances can't be given anymore. This, I think, is one of his greatest strengths as a moderator. While others either distance themselves or invest themselves greatly, this balance is what makes him unique. In a nutshell, he's one of those guys that it's perfectly reasonable to describe by saying "good god, what a douuuuche," immediately followed by words about what a genuinely good guy he is. Only he can have the wild stories he has, and them somehow still be endearing. It's just part of who he is.�


    Ryan aka �The People�s Champ�


    Ryan is a 23-year-old Australian who many consider to be the King of selling on cK-- his iTrader speaks for itself. He is best known for having a harem of gorgeous cK ladies at his beck and call. He is very emphatic, diplomatic and charismatic. When it comes to TC, Ryan has made it what it means today to cKers. He is the god of TC, the person who welcomes and gets everyone involved. He is always on the lookout for PBMs and thinking of creative ban reasons, all the while promoting activities on the forum. In his spare time he can be found giving great advice, getting drunk with his friends and wresting crocodiles. He also has a Labrador named Nero who he loves immensely.

    Interesting fact about Ryan: He has been involved in the performing arts since he was five years old!

    What cKers have to say about Ryan:
    @(you need an account to see links): "Pretty iconic as he is, Drizzy's definitely the main source of personality behind cK as he handles most of the social aspects of the forum. He isn't all fun and games though - Drizzy's got a fierce bark as well as a bite. The best person you could have on your side and the worst to be up against. Sorta like a cuddly Doberman."
    @(you need an account to see links): �Total package right here. You've got that gorgeous voice, that epic beard, that chunky bear he thinks is a dog, that amazing island he lives on and his fantastic people skills. From the beginning Ryan was there for me. He didn't even know what I looked like and he didn't care, he totally talked to me like we had been friends forever. Ryan is the man. He's a beast at selling, a master of charisma and it's no wonder he's always got people hanging around him, he's absolutely amazing. You need someone to help you out? This guy will help you in a heartbeat because he's that type of guy. Krue for life.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �I love you Ryan. You've always been so welcoming, especially when I was the new girl and didn't know anyone. You invited me to the TC sessions and group chats, you had me so involved and I loved it because I was SO shy when I first came to cK. You've been supportive and given me the best advice and calmed my ass down when I was going haywire sometimes. No matter what, you've been there to talk to me and comfort me.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �Ryan is, without a doubt, one of the best individuals at establishing a true sense of community on cK. I honestly believe that without Ryan's dedication to getting people talking, giving people reasons and ways to get invested in the community, and encouraging people to establish relationships with one another, this forum would be so much like others out there - all business, little to no community. I really believe that Ryan's contribution, as a staff member, makes all the difference when it comes to that. I've seen him give a level of dedication for his friends, colleagues, and even complete strangers that is unmatched by anyone, and, unfortunately, I've seen him get burned because of it. He believes the best in everyone, he trusts, and he gives people more chances than they usually deserve. I wish that more people realized the lengths he goes to on our behalf, often at a personal sacrifice. I'm hoping that karma truly catches up with him and gives him all that he deserves in life and more. His loyalty - to his friends and to this forum as a whole - is inspiring, and I believe we're truly lucky to have him representing us and working on our behalf.�
    @(you need an account to see links): "I procrastinated and procrastinated writing this because, honestly, it is impossible to sum up Ryan in a few sentences. When you first meet him, he's the Underground King who woos the ladies with his irresistible charm and Aussie accent. But when you really -- and I mean really -- get to know this guy, there's so much more than just Australian charm. He is, without a doubt, one of the smartest and wisest guys I've ever met. I've never known anyone as unwaveringly loyal and trustworthy as Ryan, who is able to joke and tease one moment and spew wisdom and advice the next. There is absolutely nothing I cannot talk to Ryan about, and I feel so stinkin' lucky to have him as a wingman and as a friend. Whew. That was corny. "

    Andrew aka �The King�


    Andrew is a 24-year-old charmer who rules the scene on cK. The resident prankster, Andy will trick you and troll you like it�s his last day on earth. He likes dogs, drinking, and torturing TCers by refusing to cam on the daily. He is extremely welcoming to new members, so any newbies are more than welcome to go to him if they don�t know where to start. He is like the big brother figure on cK, always starting conversation and saying interesting things at the dinner table. In his free time he enjoys being a dealer at a casino and getting into intense debates on cK.


    Interesting fact about Andrew: He has had pieces of his writing published in a book!


    What cKers have to say about Andrew:
    @(you need an account to see links): "If Drizzy's the bad cop, Andrew's definitely the good cop. An intelligently keen and driven guy behind a playful exterior and first impression. He'll always be my Cool Mod to me "
    @(you need an account to see links): �I don't know Andrew that well, but there are some things that I can say without hesitation. Andrew is a peacemaker, and his intelligence is astounding. He's not afraid to start the heavy topics, the political debates, to get people talking and invested in actual, legitimate, non-Neo-related things that affect us in our daily lives. I find that to be a really valuable aspect of cK - we might be a pre-dominantly "Neopets-related" forum, but that doesn't mean we can only talk about Neopets, and that's where Andrew comes in. Having said that, he's also quick to make sure that everyone feels comfortable sharing their own views and experiences, and he doesn't stand for it when someone - no matter whether he agrees with them or not - is being bashed for their views. I've seen him go toe-to-toe with complete assholes and still manage to get the upper hand with dignity and grace; not by being a douchebag right back (even when they totally deserve it), but with delicately-chosen words. When fights break out and stupid disagreements happen (as we all know they do around here, far too often), Andrew is usually the one who can calm the tides and make both sides feel understood and heard, no matter which "side" he personally falls on.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �Andrew, you're by far my closest friend on clraik! I cannot even begin to thank you for putting up with my shyness and always supporting me - on neo, clraik, and even in real life!�
    @(you need an account to see links): �You�re a great moderator and it�s nice that you go out of your way to get people to communicate with and get to know one another better.�
    @(you need an account to see links): �You're an amazing person. I've never seen so much kindness and devotion in one single person. It's good to know that there's someone here that's willing to help, no matter what.�


    Katia aka �The Lurker�


    Kylae is a mysterious creature that everyone on cK bows down to. The resident supplier, she has her fingers in everyone�s cookie jar. She is extremely good at business and knows everything there is to know about the Neopets underground world. Not many cKers have the pleasure of knowing her personally, so they all just worship her from afar. She is loyal to her subjects but you don't ever want to get on her bad side. If you think she hates you, she probably does. But then again she probably hates everyone. But that doesn't change the fact she is generous when she wants to be - holding an annual giveaway for her birthdays and spreading the wealth. In her spare time, Katia enjoys the company of her cats, flying in her friends from all over the world and taking them all to Disneyland and being the biggest watch-dog of the cheating scene.

    Interesting fact about Katia: She likes to put mustard on her popcorn!

    What cKers have to say about Katia:
    @(you need an account to see links): �I think its the red in her userbar, it looks like blood so you get scared and shit yourself.�
    @Mod (RIP): �Super Mod + most bans + tiger obsession + rarely post (except to shame or ban) + red name = Kylae = super mean =
    @Kristin: �Kat seems scary when you first meet her but she's just a big mama bear...er...tiger. If you're really lucky you might get to hear her voice in person and it's sexy as hell ;D�
    @5252: "One of the hardest workers who does not give up. I think she's the best and greatest person in the world."
    @Ghosts: "Kat's a great seller, and has been a good friend over my time in the Neopets scene. Although she sometimes comes across as being really intense on here, she's a lot nicer once you get to know her (as long as she's not mad at you, if she's mad at you then talking to her is one of the scariest things ever, literally). I don't think she does Neopets much anymore, but she'll always be a legend in this niche. It was nice working with you, Kat."



    @Sci_Girl aka the "Nerd"



    Sci_Girl is a once young 28 year old resident of the frigid lands of snow-covered Canada, sipping Tim Hortons coffee and often making a day of ice fishing. She has been around since the beginning of Clraik having watched this forum grow in members and breadth of programs as well as having Neo success with dominating the Autobuyer scene. As the name implies science topics are a master skill, she does know a lot about a lot and likes to share information with others. Despite the interest in scientific material it is her life experience and general life knowledge that she takes pride in. Sci_Girl is not your trade or programming Mod, she is a people Moderator. Always active in the community with discussion threads or just trying to assist others in Spam posting she will be there mingling with our members. Though careful with your words because if you start going off she can and will be able to call someone an idiot without calling them an idiot. Other than that you can quickly suck her into conversation if it is about dogs or food, a definite weakness; also, weak arms.

    Interesting Fact about Sci_Girl: She is thinking about becoming a Police Officer! Behave yourselves.

    What cKers have to say about Sci_Girl
    @potatoespotate: "I absolutely love how practical and knowledgeable you are!"
    @Drizzy: "I've seen you drop mad science around the forum in discussions and debates and you've said some pretty knowledgeable shit..."
    @Brickhaus:"I'm impressed by how much life experience and intelligence you put into all of your posts in the General Section"
    @PrettySarcastic:"You are a pro pumpkin carver and a genuinely cool person."
    @Teal:"I love your sense of humor. AND YOUR AVATAR. Futurama is the shit."
