Person Interviewed: Steven Norton™ (CL4) [2006-07-19]
| Q1: Where are you from? | Saskatchewan, Canada |
| Q2: Best and worst thing about OTF? | The best thing about OTF is definately the people that congregate here. We give each other that little boost, that for most of us makes us better people. There is always a chagrin... and with the uprising of certain problems in chat, the rules leash has been tighted on everyone. |
| Q3: Who out of OTF would you elect the leader of your country? | Even though we don't see much of him anymore, Sonata Form gets my vote. Jesse is a charismatic man, who in my opinion is a great leader. |
| Q4: What is your tagline? | I am a man of many great taglines... {Sledgehammer Grammar" is the original though. |
| Q5: Which sci-fi/fantasy movie or show would you want to be in? | Firefly and Serenity would be my first choice. Space with an old west twist! I'm definately a browncoat. |
| Q6: Are you nostalgic about the "old" OTF? Which parts? | I of course miss alot of the people that we don't see as much anymore... but I miss the pre-V2 smilies like everyone else :Z |
| Q7: What change do you feel has been most beneficial for OTF? | Ove the last two years I can't think of anything substantial. The push for the Fantasy genre the last few months has been nice though. |
| Q8: With the appearance of Man In Hat - aka, Mih - and the disappearance of our famed mystery Fleet Admiral, where do you think Octavius Piraeus - aka, "Octagon" - went? | Who's trying to start people on conspiracy theories *l* I believe Admiral Piraeus is doing as he always does... lives a real life while we're all here. |
| Q9: What chat themed room would you add to OTF? | Final Fantasy, all the way. |
| Q10: If you had IAIN-like Powers in OTF... what precisely would you do? | The same things I do now... just with IAIN-like powers. |
| Q11: Why do you think OTF has lasted so long? | It's a member driven site... so all credit should go to the members. |
| Q12: Which smiley should The Powers That Be include next in the chatrooms? | They know we want the sleepy smily back. |
| Q13: Who IS/are "The Powers That Be"? | I'm not entirely sure... but I know they don't like me. |
| Q14: What about OTF has kept you returning? | That is certainly a mystery... not... it's the friendships. |
| Q15: Where were you nine years ago, and what were you doing? | Nine years ago... I was in Slave Lake, Alberta (current residence of the lovely Rubicon> training at the Air Force Base to be a Survival Instructor. |
| Q16: Has Jon ever "Happened" to you? | Once... I think. |
| Q17: What memories from the last two years stick out most in your mind? | My arguement with Shaker about Iain... and the results of it. Returning this past January. Being someone's hero, a few times over. |
| Q18: Who's your partner in crime from these last two years in the chats? | If I have to point the figure at anyone person... it's Fat Man (aka Ferris) I blame him. |
| Q19: What crimes have you committed with this partner in crime? | They are numorus, break PDs and sometimes involve cattle. |
| Q20: What do you think the Senators really do? | If AJ has anything to do with it, they're constantly drunk... I should jump from FY to SW and become a Senator now that I think of it. |
| Q21: If OTF was a real place, what would your quarters look like? | Clothes on the floor! |
| Q22: What holodeck program would you make for yourself? | I'd have 2, an old west one and a midevil one. |
| Q23: If you could choose your own clearance level, which would you want - and why? | I planed on making CL7 faster than anyone before or after me. While I failed at that I still have dreams. I'd still like CL7 and to show my leadership skills as a Department Senior Manager some day. |
| Q24: What sci-fi/fantasy character do you like the most? | Since I just watched Pitch Black a few hours ago, my vote goes to John Riddick... I like villians. |

| Q29: Of every OTF member you haven't met, who would you most like to meet in real life? | If I don't say Aeon I'll be in trouble. Ferris and Andrew James get second billing... as well as everyone showing up for Queen's Day next year in Amsterdam! |

| Q36: What's your take on all the imaginary couples (or triplets) popping up in the forums? | Gives me something to rant about... or recap. |
| Q37: Man In Hat is angry of how Vic Fontaine is treated at OTF. Do you agree? | Vic is more ignored now compaired to the abuse he used to suffer. I think MiH needs to relax. |
| Q38: What is your favorite OTF activity? | I love promotion time... |
| Q39: If Iain goes suddenly quiet in OTF, how much do you panic? | Uuumm... I don't. If he messes things up I get to giggle. |
| Q40: How do you try to explain OTF to outsiders? | I stopped trying, unless they ask. Then it's sci-fi community and way ocer your head. |

| Q43: Did you really think that there wouldn't be a question about Naberrie / eirrebaN? | Iain *shakes head* |
| Q44: Naberrie: a moderating influence on Iain, or an inspiration to and encourager for him? | I hope Nabby moderates him... he needs a check valve. |
