Applications for Three PPT News Posters Open!
Sun Aug 08, 2004 11:44 am
Hiya guys ^_^
PPT (the site) has settled down quite a bit for me routine wise. I add some content and update content every day, post crossword answers everyday and perform some general site maintenance. However this leaves little time for news posting which I'm disappointed in because when I prowl among the general board in this forums, I see so many great threads that would make great news posts!
Thus I seek to make amends. Bringing on three new news posters to the team will give me more time to concentrate on the content while I have a great support team behind me who can do the news.
Applications are to be made to me (Shoyru_Lover) via PM.
You must be able to communicate well and be able to type in complete sentences that actually make sense. Proper punctuation is a MUST.
The type of news you'll be posting isn't unreleased items from the unreleased thread (PPT does not post these for legal reasons) but rather, interesting stories such as I have been posting on PPT for a while. As stated before, the general board is a great place to locate these news (for example, Fidd's post about Nice neopians actually in existence). The Neopian Commentary (accessible through neolinks on PPT) is also a great example of this. They don't need to post images and such to make great, interesting news posts. Therefore, news posters must have initiative.
It is required that news postings be made at least once every week in the first month and then afterwards (if you're still alive), it'll be relaxed to once per fortnight.
Onto the application, PM me (Shoyru_Lover) an example of a news post that you would post on PPT at this time. People who have read this post shouldn't have a problem formulating something.
