"He's a glue guy" means the player is one of those who holds the team together. Meg -- "Community manager" actually makes sense for somebody whose work is to manage an online community. The *application* of the title . . . well, sometimes people stray.

Does a community really need to be managed? Perhaps Director would be better. I find it is best to direct by gently tapping when people try to jump out of the field of rye. ;) Jest sayin'... Hey Meg,

Community Manager? Does a community really need to be managed? Perhaps Director would be better. I find it is best to direct by gently tapping when people try to jump out of the field of rye. ;)

Jest sayin’…

I think this is perfect! I once invented and gave myself the title of "Glue" since that was what I did. I was the one who filled all the gaps and held everything all together -- Glue. People should stop worrying about fitting into a category and instead figure out how to fill a need, then do it! Who wouldn't want someone who could "Make your problems go away"? Find a need, then fill it. Tim, you have hit the nail on the head with this! I think this is perfect! I once invented and gave myself the title of “Glue” since that was what I did.

Find a need, then fill it.
