Uh... not really I don't know how to work the site that well. So, I shouldn't be the CR. lol
Don't get me wrong, I'd be glad to help and be the CR, but I've got some learning to do as a CR. As for organizing a meeting, I can do that in my sleep.

That could be said true of anybody who has ever taken a leadership position in any of the costuming groups. Just ask Kyle about that one...
I'm with you, though. I am growing tired of some of the things going on in the local garrison that I am almost about ready to throw my name in the hat for the next CO election (which is in January). But I wouldn't know the first thing about being the leader of a group. I'm much better on the sidelines, or in an assistant's role, kind of like the Membership position I have in DST.

Oh the leadership or organizing isn't the problem. I can take a lead of a team or anything really. It's just the site, I would still have to learn how to work everything correctly if I actually would be the CR. I mean it shouldn't be difficult now that I have been playing around with it for a few days now. So, it really depends on you guys if yo want me to be the CR or not.

Nah - there's not too much working of the site. There are these forums which I am assuming that crash simply has some sort of administrative power. Then there's the OFF website that I made. It just needs to be updated. I think another blog-style page would work well for that. Just something to announce when we do have get-togethers and stuff.

In reality, CRs don't have much power. We cannot change anything on the boards, the managers/administrators have all that power. We can't even put up stickies on our own forum (bummer). The CRs just get a title, a blue color, access to the private CR board, and access to some board statistics, (and the the ear of administrators). The main things that the CR does is to keep the forum active, organizing meetings, keeping topics going, and keeping the forum civil. And you get the thanks and admiration of all the members....  , just kidding.

Well, I guess I could be the CR then. I've kind of armed-up to the idea. lol

CR should also keep things interesting, try to get people motivated to have social events, and bring fans together.
It is more than just messages on a board.

Indeed. But to be honest, it's really up to the board if they want me CR or not. So you guys decide.

Kinda new to everything.
If you are really gung-ho about it I would think you would make a good assistant or events coordinator.
Then again maybe new is what the fan force here needs.

Another job of the CR (in my opinion) should be to tell theForce.net's Fanforce news staff of any events that we have going on. That way we can potentially get new enthusiastic members showing up to events and joining the boards...

My head is really tired right now and i'm just rambling with no motivation to organize all of this. So bare with me and don't judge my grammar or structure. =P
With no zeal there is no life. SW will always be around. But what it used to feel like to be a fan has died. I can go back to that feeling and that excitement as if it were just yesterday... it's something I don't have anymore. Oh it used to feel so grand to be a SW fan! As if the force were in you as the story and characters romanced our imaginations!
I think, at least for me, it was the idea of having a whole galaxy to play with. I jumped into the SW Galaxy and became Larena Jade. It's the excitement of "playing pretend" like a child. It's much like Peter Pan in The Hook. He forgot how to use his imagination. And I think the moment I stepped out of being a true fan and told myself I would just like SW from the outside is when I slowly lost it. I don't have the ability to jump back in and feel the way I used to. I've grown old. Sure I can imagine things and write stories and such. But it's not alive within me. I am not Larena Jade anymore when I visit the boards, that is who I used to be in a galaxy far far away.
The Star Wars Ancients were the true fans. Nowadays we are a bunch of posers who like ELEMENTS of SW, thus drawing us to certain SW activities as a side hobby.
I think it's going to be hard to find another CR with that said. =P
Unless someone is willing to step up of course.
