Yep, when I was a begginer pilot I imagined the ATC 's as something comparable to a god, in which you could rely on to get you down safely even if you did everything wrong, them never making mistakes.
A time after, I started as an ATC, and I can tell you, ATC's DO make mistakes, myself as an example.
Cyriel is right, get Servinfo (If you dont already), and you might want to go to the "Selected Details" section, and enter the names of a few EHM members that you have seen/heard of in the forum (for example).
Youll be amazed how if not on the first day, on the second you will see an EHM member controlling somewhere across the world.
Cheers and hope to see you online at any future event!
