Good thing they didn't put any emphasis on spelling and grammar skills.

nonetheless, congrats. (fucker)
lol stoned out the gourd when I wrote that. I even re-read it and saw all of the errors, meh.

the place is called fogstudios. They don't only do video games though. Pretty much anything to do with intellectual property.

like I said, the thesis itself has never been written. I can send you the proposal if you'd like though.

Nah, think KF mumbled it once when she was choking on me ;)

Remember my "what's REAL the reason you post here" thread? The one where i admitted i used the fact i was a mod in my industry entry CV as proof of interest in the community? Was hoping for a reply from you back then :D

So, what's the role you've landed?

I'm just a research analyst but I'm still pretty pumped about the whole thing. LoL I used the whole moderator thing as well in my interview. Who would of thought that spending time on a message board wouldn't be a complete waste?

truth is that it improved my english in the first year that I was posting on the q3w forums.

(and it probably contaminated my english vocubalary too :> )

Congrats man. I tried applying for a Jr position with Crystal Studios but I couldn't figure out the hardest question on the test. :tear:

congrats jackal. I wrote something similar for my mini-thesis this year, studying the effects of an online environment on academic discussion as compared to in-class (face to face) interaction. That, in turn, branched off into a study of online interaction which was used as a chapter for my advisor's study which he's shortly publishing.

This fucking great, I havn't even graduated yet and I've managed to snag a salary-based job in the video game industry. I've always wanted to get into this industry but have always been shite with computers and such so I never really thought it would happen. But since I managed to apply my Anthropology thesis proposal to the field I managed to get some attention and turn that into a job. Funny thing is, and nobody but Knowfury knows this I think, is that I wrote my thesis proposal on YOU people. HAHA, I've managed to turn a thesis on online community social theory into a sweet job in the video game industry. Frankly, this job could end up being pure shit but it still feels pretty fucking good to see your education working for you.
Congrats man! I think it's kinda cool I am indirectly responsible for your job. :p

To be honest I keep expecting somebody to jump out of a bush and be like "you're on candid camera! No job for you fucker!".
