with her you see way more of the real person than many give credit to. The " PR" Spinning has to be there to a point, but in truth it's more or less a simple " you can talk about_______, but don't go into_______ until were ready" But that goes for anyone attached to anything.
I held a near identical position with another developer/publisher and can actually say she goes above and beyond what is required, and she is " her" which is more rare, and takes a heavier toll in the long run.
Everything you say, candidly, or of your own musings, or just being " yourself" is picked apart ( understandably more so in tough times) the more you open yourself, and face time you give- even when it is because you truly care about the people and enjoy them you become a target " because you are visible"
She has no reason to come in on her off time, or open her personal twitter to fans...I had no reason to share my messenger with ________ players/community other than purely enjoying the people, even though that lead to a great deal more stress than not. She, and any other could simply stick with collecting data, directing traffic, working on little things like aiding with promotional things etc and rarely , if ever need to get into the trenches and just idly talk with anyone.
That actually is why to me she has earned far more than what is given. Perhaps It's because I have " some" first hand experience in a similar place? I don't know. People are going to come to their own ideas of how much is scripted, and whatnot, that won't ever really change, it comes with the job. What I will say though, is that you see more of " her" than you do the " employee"
