I thought it might be fun to interview Belea2008, who is, in my opinion, one of the more noticeable and public faces of the eRepublik team. Belea can be seen handling presidential concerns and was also the member of the team who handled the "Rebellion".



#1. When did you first get involved in the game Erepublik?
Long time ago (Jan 31, 200😎.


#2. Were you a player before you were a part of the team?
Yes, I was a player. I almost won the presidency of Romania (11 votes less than Titu Maiorescu) one day before joining the team.


#3. What is your job in the Erepublik Team, and how did you get it?
Community Officer. I got it as any other normal job, the team was looking for new staff members for the Community Department. I sent my CV; and after a few tests and interviews, I was accepted.


#4. What do you do on a day-to-day basis and what is your favorite part about that?
Identifying issues and finding solutions to citizen concerns. Hard to pin point what I do on day-to-day basis. Communicating with citizens - I think that sums a lot of my responsibilities. Basically, I'm an "admin".

#5. Where do you live in RL/What is your ethnicity?
Romania, Bucharest/Romanian


#6. What has been your favorite experience with Erepublik so far?
Getting involved in the eRepublik Wiki. I got very attached (emotionally speaking) to that project. The New World is about history, about leaders, about being a better person, about being human, about friendship.....


#7. Where do you see Erepublik, as a community, in the future?
Maturing, evolving. There will some shifts in goals and desires, but the passion will remain the same.

#8. What is your favorite module in Erepublik, and why?
Hard to say. Politics, maybe a little bit more than the other modules. Why? Because is a ruthless continuous fight. You can achieve greatness either by helping others or sabotaging the other candidates. It is a module in which you make real choices. Choices that influence others, for good or for the not so good.

#9. Will the political module will be worked on after org removal is finalized? And to what degree?
It is too early to tell. Nowadays, (using your modular perspective) we're focused a lot on economy (and, in a less degree, military).

#10. How do you feel about the recent changes to the unified inventory system, and why do you think these changes were important?
I think it is great. In any role playing game, the inventory is an important aspect and is defining game play. Until the new unified inventory system, this part of the game was not so good in so many aspects.


#11. What is your least favorite part of your job?
Wow! Though one..... Hmm.... Probably saying "no" to a citizen.


A phrase I'm sure we all are used to hearing 😛


#12. What is an interesting fact about yourself, whether in RL ,or the eOne?
I'm ambitious and passionate. Sometimes, too passionate. 🙂


#13. What are your thoughts regarding the massive "Rebellion" and cease-fire?
Valid concerns, but wrong leaders. 😒


#14. How do you think the Erepublik Team could prevent that in the future?
Preventing the concerns, the wrong leaders or the "Rebellion" in general? 😛


#15. What would you give up in Erepublik, if forced to, for a klondike bar?
For a klondike bar, nothing.


#16. Thanks again for letting me interview you, do you have anything you would like to add to address the Erepublik community?
Just follow your passion! By the way, it is "eRepublik", not "Erepublik" 🙂
