This month we will be interviewing: Lowkey, EIM Zarox, and yearly.

 

Let's start off with Lowkey...

 

gim deathkid: What are your current & future goals on your UIM?

Lowkey: Current goal is obtaining a twisted bow, future goal is completing tob. Neither of those will happen .

 

gim deathkid: What are the some biggest challenges you face as a Community Manager? 

Lowkey: Currently it would have to be having the time to be there for everyone, we are in our busiest month for work and working 60-70 hours a week atm but it should start slowing down soon and I can have more free time to play and hang out with you guys.

 

gim deathkid: If you could have lunch with anyone in the world (dead or alive), who would it be & why?

Lowkey: I'd love to have some lunch with you deathkid, it would be a race to see who can eat the most. You can go ahead and hold this L because we already know I'm winning.

 

gim deathkid: How did your NF (rapper) addiction start? 

Lowkey: I believe it was back in 2016 or early 2017 my good friend Jare showed me one of his songs called "real". Then I started to search more of his songs and could relate to almost all of them.

 

gim deathkid: What is your favorite piece of content on Alora?

Lowkey: Probably raids, as much as I hate them both for not giving me loot...they are addicting.

 

Next up, EIM Zarox!

 

gim deathkid: Why did you resign so quickly again? (Question submitted by Sheep)

EIM Zarox: I resigned again because I was simply burnt out from the start, I shouldn't have returned in the first place.

 

gim deathkid: Why do people keep nominating you for the newspaper?!

EIM Zarox: I'm a fucking demon, what can I say? I'm just interesting. 

 

gim deathkid: Do you have any plans you are working towards?

EIM Zarox: Getting raid ready on my OSRS ironman, just got an imbued heart today @ lvl 73 slayer with only 9 superior encounters LMFAO.

Spoiler

 

gim deathkid: What is your greatest achievement on Alora?

EIM Zarox: Idk dude probably getting my ranger boots after going 2.5k ckeys and 1.8k lucky imps dry.

 

gim deathkid: If you could change one thing about Alora, what would it be & why?

EIM Zarox: Shamans, fuck those mfers

 

Last but not least, yearly!

 

gim deathkid: Tell us a little about yourself.

yearly: I'm Yearly, I have been designing for over 5 years (Most of my work I did for clients on twitter (Youtube/Twitter/Stream Layouts).

 

gim deathkid: What artwork of yours are you the most proud of, and why? (Question submitted by Dont risk it)

yearly: I would say my stream designs (overlays, facecams, etc.) because that is what I mainly made when I had clients coming to me on Twitter.

 

gim deathkid: What sparked your interest in GFX?

yearly: Having the opportunity to creatively use your mind, and making the people satisfied with the work you provide your clients.

 

gim deathkid: What are your current goals on your Ironman? 

yearly: My current goals on my Ironman is maxing out (slowly) while in the meantime I'm getting better gear (Lvl 122 and still having dragon armor), and of course when I reach proper gear, Ill do Cox/TOB etc., ill probably plank at TOB but hopefully some people are nice to take me under their wings :).

 

gim deathkid: Do you have any plans for the GFX team on Alora?

yearly: Bring in dedicated people that are willing to help out the community of Alora. Not just people that want to have the rank, and bring it to the next level standards and providing Alora with the best Graphics that has ever been seen.
