Join The N+ Mod Squad

By seaempty. Wednesday, 18. June 2008, 06:22:43

, , ,


As we mentioned before, N+ is growing fast. As a result we are looking for new mods to help out with the group. We need some fresh faces to make regular posts about the daily news, write reviews and features, and look after the forums.

Read on if you're interested!

What are we looking for?

Dedication - To write regular posts. We're not talking about N+ taking over your life, but we'd like about one post a day.

Passion - You gotta love everything about the big N.

Intelligence - To be able to write well thought-out and entertaining posts. A good grasp of the Queen's English is a must.

Location, location, location - although not a necessity, we'd ideally like some new mods from outside the US.

Teamwork - The N+ mods are a friendly bunch, and we work together well. We like to talk and discuss ideas, and new mods should be willing to communicate with us via email, IRC, Skype, etc.

What do you get in return?

Unfortunately the positions are not paid. We do this for the love, not the money. We can offer you the chance to work with the current N+ mods (who are all amazingly awesome), and on the best group in the My Opera Community. You will get press access to news sites, and we do get sent games to review by publishers. If you do the review, the game is yours.

What to do next?

If you are interested, and think that you tick all the boxes, all you have to do is send me a Private Message to let me know you want to be considered. It would be helpful if you could give us some examples of your writing, and maybe tell us a little about yourself too. The deadline for applications is the 2nd July, and once this has passed, the current N+ mods will get together and decide who the new mods will be.

I could moderate the site. But I can't even update my own blog on a regular basis. I think I got all the others points though.

587.23, on average?

By Ace Jon, # 18. June 2008, 21:05:46

avatar
How can you make 0.23 cupcakes? You're almost finishing one quarter of it when the bell rings and you just bolt out of there, leaving the poor, defenseless, unfinished cupcake to rott?
PS: Now I want a cupcake!! ¬.¬ I'll go get a Twinkie off the machine...

By Spook81, # 18. June 2008, 21:32:18

It was an average. That what happens with averages. Everybody knows that.

By Ace Jon, # 18. June 2008, 21:46:24

avatar

I have applied and would like to remind Seaempty that I know where he lives, and have a deadly ninja in my phone book.

By The Last Sheikah, # 19. June 2008, 19:21:36

avatar
He's serious, guys. He's done it before.

By Ace Jon, # 19. June 2008, 19:48:55

So it was you in the bushes!

An SHRINK would draw soooo much from this conversation... o_O
(Why are my comments edited ¬.¬ SOMEONE is abusing the mod-power... ¬.¬)
We need a mod to mod the mods... what?!

By Spook81, # 19. June 2008, 22:50:18

avatar
How do you mean 'draw'? Literally?

By Ace Jon, # 20. June 2008, 08:24:25

avatar
"Draw" as in deducing, inferring...as in extracting... as in "We're all deranged!" :wink:

By Spook81, # 20. June 2008, 19:00:45

Hey, G-Off removed his [really creepy] comment.

By Ace Jon, # 20. June 2008, 20:00:21

avatar
I said PAINT. I said nothing about NIBBLING. I'm guessing that was Khadgar.

By G-off, # 20. June 2008, 21:06:46

avatar
You wanted to PAINT all our ears?

By Ace Jon, # 20. June 2008, 23:01:34

avatar
What about if I painted cupcakes on you? That'd be awesome, right?
Or maybe I could have the pregnant and deadly teen ninja do it...

Anyway, it's tempting to become a mod. p:

First of all let me say that this is a excellent blog, please do continue with the excellent job.
I would ask to be a mod, but unfortunately i don't have the free-time-requirement to make a post every day, and besides i live in Portugal p: i do talk and write in English pretty well but i would "kick" from time to time.
My blog is about Nintendo DS, it's in Portuguese but i guess you can tell by the title or the links i provide in some posts what the subject is about.
I believe you haven't mentioned the new Dragon Ball game for the DS (still on the making), completely stylus-guided, with controls similar to The Legend of Zelda, looks like with will be as awesome as Dragon Ball Advance Adventure was, following the Anime pretty close. I have posted some of the pictures, check it our here.

Good look with the blog, please do continue!
