Friendly shout out to the enforcers

SmallIvoryKnightSmallIvoryKnight Registered User new member
I've got to PAX since 2007, (with the exception of last year. I cried when I couldn't get tix. But that's beside the point) And every year I'm always amazed at just how friendly and awesome the enforcers are. I'd especially like to give a big shout out to "Chops" who I ran into guiding lines multiple times, particularly the Saturday concerts and Sunday Serpent Theater lines. He was always full of energy, to the point where I half suspect he picked up the "Unlimited stamina" Saints Row perk. I would also like to commend "Chip" who was watching over the Strip Search desk on Sunday afternoon. She was friendly and talkative at a time that I'm sure I'd rather just have curled up and slept for a week.
You guys all are super rad. Thank you kindly!

    I had an amazing experience with everyone, the enforcers, companies, vendors, and attendees. I had to be in a wheelchair and enforcers bent over backwards to help me with any need I had. Thank you and hope to make it back next year healthy and more of a help for them.

    I'm used to the staff the local anime cons around here tend to have- last-minute volunteers who can't really answer much outside of basic info that's in the guidebook, where it's often more productive to ask other attendees questions. I'm still blown away at how awesome Enforcers are- if I have a really hard question, I might need to ask 2 enforcers instead of just one. There are Enforcers stationed in busy areas, just for question answering. They tell you if a bit of swag or merch sold out so you don't wait in line for nothing. There is a group specifically for line entertainment, for crying out loud!

    Enforcers are truly awesome people, and a huge part of why PAX is great. We cannot thank them enough!

    Many thanks to all the enforcers! I headed to the Oculus Rift line Saturday morning and got in right before the queue closed. I don't know how she did it, but an enforcer spent the better part of 20 minutes shouting (at the top of her lungs, every ~15-30 seconds) to let people know the line was closed and to keep the aisle clear. It's a hell of a job, but I'm grateful to everyone who was willing to do it. This was my first PAX, and if I'm able to go next year I might just volunteer to enforce on the Monday.

    Ah, I love these threads. The enforcers were awesome as usual this year, and I'd like to give personal shoutouts to Silvia and Cojiro. It was a lot of fun hanging out with you both in the handheld lounge on Saturday night, and thank you again for the Animal Crossing item! You both ROCK!

    An additional shoutout to Starbuck for just being a genuinely awesome dude. Thanks!

    PAX rules! A lot of that is due to the presence and dedication of the Enforcers, and I never take that for granted.

    Adding in my 2 cents worth in support of the enforcers, as a medical badge attendee I found just about every enforcer I dealt with for panels, pin trading or just general information to be informative, considerate and friendly. At the Gearbox panel 1 enforcer took the time to ensure that all medical badge attendee's were given their swag pointing out that often times the medical badges are forgotten in the hustle and bustle of PAX. Keep up the great work everyone.

    And a shout out to the TableTop Enforcers over at Olive. They were amazing.

    Every enforcer I encountered was amazing. Special shout out to the enforcer with the blue mohawk who stood for 5 minutes trying to help me get my phone to scan the XP QR code in the Sheraton. Thank you!!!

    Yes, I agree with all the above.

    Our enforcer (Moga booth) was actually my Enforcer at PAX East (paintball booth). So it was good to see him, BS with him, and already have a rapport going. As always the Enforcers I dealt with were all awesome.

    Catch them again at EAST.

    Your very Welcome. It's nice to see that attendees show us how much we mean to them. Still recommend joining us to see it from another point of view.

    Every year, one of these threads pop up. I never post in them. I wanted to this year. Thank YOU, the attendees, for wanting to spend your time at PAX. Without you, there is no PAX. Without you, there are no Enforcers. Without all of you, I don't have a built in excuse to congregate with some of the people I call my dearest friends.

    SO again, from the bottom of my heart (and I am sure other Enforcers would agree with me) THANK YOU ATTENDEES for making this the best PAX ever.

    You're welcome, and thank you back! We appreciate you guys, too. You guys make Handheld more fun.

    Thank you to the Attendee who took it upon herself to add to our Anti-plop Propaganda. It will go to good use.

    That's one of my favourite parts, seeing Enforcers from PAX to PAX and knowing that they're still enjoying it!
