Introducing Dtoast, who will be taking over Community Management

Hello all, as you may know ComicVine was recently acquired by Fandom, Inc. I'd like to introduce you to Dtoast who will be helping with community management on ComicVine going forward. He'll be your point of contact for most community issues going forward, so I'll let him introduce himself below this post.

Hey Everyone!

My name is Dylan Host. I am 26 and live in the extreme cold that is Minnesota. I’m the Community Manager of Safety for Fandom’s Community Safety team joining back in December 2021. I’m responsible for overseeing the SOAP team, who monitors and protects against vandalism and spam on the platform. I also manage the JavaScript review process to protect users and wikis against any malicious code. Additionally, I’m an advocate for building out the Dev wiki which is the destination for people looking to take a deeper dive into coding.

I’m a massive fan of gaming and entertainment. Most of the games I play are grand strategy games or RPGs but I’m down to try out anything. Show wise it can vary but I’m really into The Last of Us currently. My favorite comic series is Fables but admittedly I need to expand my reading. Currently I’m playing Wartales, Age of Empires 4, Expeditions: Rome, and really want to get Atomic Heart.

I’m really excited to have the opportunity to introduce myself to the community and can’t wait to be involved with you all more.

My intention is to empower you all and provide you with additional resources. My commitment to you is that our communities are our first priority in every decision we make and that your voices will be heard throughout. You can message me here or on any other platform DToast being my username on all of them(Discord DToast#2834). I encourage anyone to message me with concerns, issues, or questions. As the SOAP team can attest to I’m pretty much up all hours of the day and try to make an effort to follow up even if I am busy or I don’t have a direct answer at that moment.

@dtoast: Welcome! :)

I live in the American Gardens Building on West 81st Street on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I’m 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I’ll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.

Welcome!

Welcome mate

Welcome Comrade!

Glad to have you here

Atomic Heart is fun, but the intro is bad. Nice to have you. Good luck managing the community. We can be a handful.

@dtoast: sorry for the late reply but welcome

welcome.

@dtoast: Welcome, check your IM when you get a chance I have a question regarding user options and threads. Thank you. :)

Well, that's what I get for hardly ever coming into the Gen. Discussion forum... I had no idea until today that CV and GS had been acquired by Fandom. I'm over there on a completely different user name lol. Welcome, @dtoast!
