Our Palpatater is the little engine that can. He's consistently engaging with the community and clan. Like many of us, he balances real-life and our hobby here but for nearly 2 years since his last promotion he served in a leadership position. Most recently serving as M:FIST.

I know Ric, both from his currently time as M:FIST, and from positions before and outside the Brotherhood to be a strong and consistent leader and that recognizing his contributions here with an elevation to EQ4 is representative of the informal leadership he carries forward in all he does.

Ric has been an excellent addition to the Fist staff since joining in January. and I hope he applies to return for a future term. During his tenure on staff Ric reviewed 99 gaming activity submissions, ensuring that 51 members were awarded clusters of earth and fire in a timely manner. He also provided content to the gaming community at large by organizing three well-received Fist competitions. In addition to his normal magistrate duties, Ric stepped up to ensure continuity of support to our SWTOR players when the Fist office transitioned away from the T:SWTOR position by hosting activities on that platform and by providing day-to-day administration of the in-game guild such as setting collective goals and adding new member characters.

On behalf of the Fist staff and the gaming community thank you for your service Ric!
