Marketing brings in the megabucks. But I think that the publisher carries the burden of marketing to ensure that the megabucks are as mega as possible.

Keeping the hardcore fan base engaged, interested, occupied and faithful? A community dude/chick has become pretty standard practice throughout the industry. A long time and a lot of changes since it was Matt who was charged with "protecting the Bungie way".

“Strange,” mused the Director, as they turned away, “strange to think that even in Our Ford’s day most games were played without more apparatus than a ball or two and a few sticks and perhaps a bit of netting. imagine the folly of allowing people to play elaborate games which do nothing whatever to increase consumption.”

The Black Chapter!

Don't know who this guy is, but I'm betting he has a beard.

Community people are quite influential, for instance, KP was the father of my gamertag...

It's funny because it's true, but not in a good way.

But that's an in-joke I can get behind....like Foman's mom.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

While marketing does in fact bring in the megabucks. A lot of being a community manager comes down to getting community feedback to shape a game, and marketing it accordingly or at least that's how I would do it.
For Example: '' This is what went wrong with our previous games, you won't see it again. This is what turned out better than what we expected, and now we're enhancing and expanding this component of our game.
Both are equally important, the same could be said about quantitative feedback vs qualitative feedback, both need taken into account. Ultimately it's the community that's buying your game.

You're that guy at a party who goes around exclaiming how awesome a party it is. Look back fondly at a later date rather than commenting on the comedy at the present.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

Because he's the only Ninja I know best. Also, he's a nice guy. I have an opinion, aight? I mean, I like Duardo and Recon but I don't know too much about them, except that they work in the community a lot.

Can't be too careful with your company. I can feel the devil walking next to me.

You guys have your hands all Tied up with this. I think the guesses at who it could be are humorous.

And no it's not me, although I wish it was.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

I've been expecting you.
