At its core, Watchers is nothing but a family of gamers united under one flag. We game together, share our lives together, and support one another fully. Each and every one of our members are so vital to the stability and longevity of our community that its simply impossible to pick out a specific members who's went above and beyond the call of duty. You can't choose one member when every member goes farther than what they've ever been asked to do.
That's why we wanted to give something back to our community, something to show our gratitude towards our members and all their hard work. Each and every week, we'll bring you an in-depth, one-on-one personal interview with a randomly selected member of the Watchers community. Nothing too deep or personal, of course, but just some information you might not have known about them.
One member at a time, one story of how they found us, one legend in the making.

Raiiden: Greetings and welcome to yet another installment of our 'Member of the Week' feature! Firstly, before getting down to business, let me say that we're doing awesome keeping this updates on a scheduled basis! I mean this week we're right on the bal..l..with.. eh, who am I kidding? We're lazy. Whatcha going to do about?
Anyway, this week we'll be featuring an amazing interview with our one and only Drarant! Oh, and if this little interview seems a little 'drab', well, it was all conducted over the forums. You see, Drarant puts off such a powerf energy field around his body at all times that somehow the shielding surronding his computer was penetrated and he fried his own motherboard! Tough luck, but that's what you get for being the ace-top-number-one-supreme guy! On with the wall of text!
Raiiden: So, Drarant. Dorant. Dor. Dorfie. Congrats on being our latest MOTW! You now get to sit on the front of the webpage for at least a month!
Dor: Woot! But won't folks get tired of seeing me?
Raii: With that pretty face of yours? Heavens no!
Dor: Aww..
Raii: Erm.um..uh.. later, Dorfiepie :3. Anyway, how's it feel to be selected for this, what, month's MOTW?
Dor: Its an honor to be picked for a MOTW. With so many great guys and gals in our community, its a real honor to be singled out!
Raii: (Pfft..if only Shishi had been available..)
Dor: Wha?
Raii: Erm, I meant, yeah! Its an honor well-deserved though!
Dor: :(
Raii: So Dorfie, how'd you become a Watcher?
Dor: Back in Feb 2004 I was playing an sandorian elvaan named drarant. I was about level 14 or so and thus was messing around in ghelsba outpost. I met a guy named everbe (great guy, quit 2months later)that was in the linkshell. We played with each other for 3 days straight and got from 14-18 just in ghelsba, I inquired about his linkshell and he got me in.
Raii: So it was by a stroke of luck that you happened across one of our members? Man, to think we're you could've gone had you not found us...
Dor: Would've had more of a social life, but who cares!
Both: THE OUTDOORS ARE FOR TREE HUGGERS AND FARMERS!
Farmer Croy: [Farmerspeak] Justa tendin' ma crops on the winabegoio... dustin' come round rabbit fora turn.
Raii: What do you like best about our community, Dor?
Dor: I love how chill we are, how we operate with a fluidity and respect that is very hard to match. During my recent hiatus I've watched some of my friends and their "raid guilds" do their thing. I was appalled with the rudimentary style of dealing with each other and saw people joining a different raid guild a week. It built a great sense of pride that I have been part of this community for over 2 years.
Raii: Yeah, we're so gealin'. Would you change anything about the community if you could?
Dor: If I could change anything about us, i'd clone croyden twice, so we would have the preist, warrior and wubbmuffin on at the sametime. who needs real life when you would have all that?
Raii: Dunno.. I heard he was kinda stinky..
Dor: He's like really bad cheese. Its cheese, after all, so you just hold your nose and chomp it down.
Raii: Worst. Analogy. Ever. Yuck. So, onto the question all the ladies want to know; is there any deep, dark secrets that you'd like to share with us, Dorfy?
Dor: sometimes... when i'm in a raid... whenever i jump in game it means i sneeze irl hahaha spacebar spacebar spacebar. hmm, deep and dark eh? well, i guest dj'd on a radio station once. my name was dj queefbeef, my motto was "wheres the beef?" and i played songs by will smith, kelly clarkston, randy savage, europe, euromotion and hillary duff. the catch was i inserted random juicy fart noises in the middle of songs to keep people's attention and of course did random craziness during the transitions.
Raii: Phat dance beats + potty humour = hella awesome!
Dor: Totally! I wanted to change my DJ name to 'Scratch and Sniff" but they simply wouldn't let me :(
Raii: Too bad, too bad. I would've bought your album! Last question then; what does a Watcher mean to you?
Dor: This sounds repetitive but its true, we are a family of friends. We relax, chill out, and play our classes to the best of our abilities and have a great time while doing it.
Raii: So true, so true. Well, thanks Dorfy for giving us a bit of your time and words! Let me get some of those awesome beats on the way out!
Dor: Sure thing! Breaka-breaka-boo, dun dun, dun dun, prrrrrft~, dun dun...
Again, big thanks to Dorfy for taking time out to sit with us, and we all hope his motherboard is fixed soon. Stop being so awesome, Dor! Don't forget, if you'd like to nominate someone to be our Member of the Week, just send an email to motw@watchersonline.com.
