Hey guys. I've been getting tons of questions lately, and since I haven't made a Joker Post in awhile, and it gets a bit hard to answer them all individually, I thought I'd answer some of the most common questions here.
Do you get paid for being a Game Guru?
This is actually a really common question I've been getting, and I'm going to be straight up ad say no, we do not get paid money to be Game Gurus. It's a volunteer position, and we have other jobs/duties other than being on forums.
How do I become a Game Guru?
I get this one quite a lot as well, and I'm going to be honest and say I don't know.
There's no real application process, and from what I've seen there's never more than five Game Gurus at a time. Selene, Cthulu, and I were all sent PMs asking if we'd like to participate in the program, and after a bit of consideration, I accepted. Just be active and helpful, and if there's ever a slot open, maybe you'll be asked.
Can you help me with this support issue?
As Game Gurus, we're here to chat and help other players just like anyone else. We are also here to promote and maintain a positive atmosphere on forums, and have no direct relation to the support team. If you need a technical issue resolved, it's best if you forward it to the support team or UWE_Tank right here on forums. (Note: Please do not spam Tank or expect an answer from him or support immediately.)
Can you get <Insert Moderator Here> to stop closing/deleting my threads/posts?
As Game Gurus we support each other's decisions regarding moderation and warnings. If your posts are being deleted constantly, try brushing up on the forum ToS.
That's all I have time for right now, but if you have any other questions, please PM me or any other GG and I (or another GG) will try to answer them as soon as humanly possible.

Rule 10: Respect the decisions of the moderators
- The moderation teams reserves the right to warn, suspend, or permanently ban users judged to be acting against the spirit of the rules, even if the user is following the letter of the rules.
- Do not argue with moderators about moderator decisions. You can disagree with a moderator’s opinions, just like any other poster, but when they post moderator actions in red text, it is considered final.
