    No, not really, I had loads of CL4 positions once, a few people have over the years, it's all about what you can handle.

    I support the validity of this response.

    But otherwise, yes.

    Yes, you are.

    I've held multiple roles in the past, it is just about if you're confident that you can fulfil each roles obligation effectively and still have time for real life obligations.

    I'd be concerned about burnout.

    Because of the positions? No. That's not weird.

    Doesn't mean that you aren't, though.

    I absolutely admire your drive, determination, and energy.

    As others have alluded to, you're doing an amazing job... but be careful on over-extending yourself and burn yourself out on something. Smile

    All in favour of giving Arlu3n every single position in the fleet so he's buried under work?

    I'm personally more of a quality over quantity person.

    So if you're assuming all of those roles with quality and not being burnt, very well done to you, sir! I like your work in FAB with signatures and the one you for made for me.

    Ok, this actually turned completly different than I thought it would.

    I really appreciate all your comments and kudos. I am thrilled to be in this really great community and I want to help it out wherever I can. But for example I also applied for the Staff Writer position to first help the FNS team to get more articles because the staff is low + it will help me improve my writing skills as I am going to need them in real life in the near future probably.

    Once again, I can't thank enought for all the kind words. You guys are awesome <3
