Ian Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Hello everybody! We have just opened positions for people to join our content team! If you like writing, have good grammar, and are a good Neopets player, please consider applying to our content team! The Daily Neopets is a fun place to work (even though on the application it might seem like a lot; that's just to scare the n00bs away b)) and is very flexible with your schedule. We're just a bunch of Neopets fans coming together to run a site. If you'd like to be a part of our site team, again, please apply! Check out the details here. :) We look forward to receiving your application. Moderator positions will be opening up soon as well. :D Ian TDN Management Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I thought you always chose moderators... not hired them... Quote
Ian Posted June 16, 2008 Author Posted June 16, 2008 No... we choose our moderators by reviewing their application (if they apply). However, we do do that on a rare occasion. Quote
Xepha Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Yay, we are hiring minions staff! As always, good luck to everybody who will apply. :) Quote
PHPG Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 :eh: Eh well, content is definitely not my department, I only know the battledome. I'm sure you guys will pick a good person for the position. Quote
antiaircraft Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 XD Content staff positions? I'd re-apply, but I don't really have the time to sort out an application form again. Any chance you could just reconsider my old application? :P (Not that I have any chance of being picked) Quote
Ian Posted June 17, 2008 Author Posted June 17, 2008 We actually liked your application in the past (well I did at least). I'd recommend re-applying if you really want to. :) That way, we can the full spectrum of all of your abilities in a new application (since I'm sure you've gotten even better since you last applied). Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 You never know ;) And Pandar, you should email Ian with an application for Battlepedia Staff. I can't say anything for sure, but I'm sure they'd be glad to have you. I can help you with an application if you'd like :) Quote
Xepha Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Actually Ryan, Battlepedia applications are still opened... so Pandar should post in the forum ;P. AA, feel free to re-apply (with a new sample and mention of your previous one). Your application was definitely interesting last time. Quote
Anime Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 The thing with the Content apps is that last time we had a limit to how many we hired, so we had to pick the people we felt were the absolute best. Of course, this in no way means that there were't a good many people who came very very close. If you really want to be on the staff and think you really can help and contribute, then by all means, re-apply. If anything, re-applying lets us know just how dedicated you'll be. That doesn't make it sure fire, but your chances go up a tiny bit. Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Too bad that wouldn't work for everyone ;) I was wondering, do the content staff have any sort of quota? From the way your post was worded it doesn't seem so... Quote
Hubert Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 I can't try, because, as you might have seen, my lousy english is messing it up again. And I can promise you, this isn't the first time my english messes things up :P. Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 You can always try! You're english doesn't look too bad, and it can only get better! Quote
Xepha Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Ryan, you do know the quota. It's 10 new pages of content per month, flexible. Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Yes, I was just wondering if that was still in effect. Quote
antiaircraft Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Alright then, I'll whip a new sample up once I clear all these exams out of the way. :yes: Of course, I still don't stand a chance. Quote
m3l3ana Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 ^^^^ :hmmph: Why do you always talk down about yourself!!?? Ian just said he liked your application, you should be boasting!!! *nods* I am no good at content, so that position would not suit me!! Do content staff really have to do, 10 new pages of content per month? Suppose that is about 2 - 3 a week, meh not bad! Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Yes, we do Marianne :) It is flexible, but thats the goal and we all try to get about that each month! Quote
antiaircraft Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 ^^^^ :hmmph: Why do you always talk down about yourself!!?? Ian just said he liked your application, you should be boasting!!! *nods* It's called being realistic. :P By the way, I call dibs on the Skies Over Meridell article! XD Quote
Ian Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 You got it ;) Hehe, we're reviewing the current applications now. We'll get back to them soon! Quote
antiaircraft Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Oh cool, new staffers coming up! XD Always good to see TDN expanding. :yes: Quote
Guest Levy Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 *Raises hand* Do you have to be a Neopets player to become content staff? XP -Okay, stupid time over.- I am looking forward to the opening of the mod hiring. I don't want to say much but I got a heads up a while back and I've already got my mod application made out. :P Theo, if you don't make content, you being 1st in posts, would be my first choice to be a mod, if I was choosing. I mean, you pretty much post in every topic you can. In my opinion, it's inevitable. Quote

I mean, you pretty much post in every topic you can. In my opinion, it's inevitable. Yes, Levy, you should, because that helps your knowledge of Neopets and influences your writing. And yeah, you would both make great mods, but let's see to content applications first. ^_^ Quote
Guest Levy Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 I don't play Neopets, haven't for over a year. (My explaination for the stupid question XD) I stick around here because I've poured so much time into TDN. I've never been this dedicated to a website. I think I just strolled by my 2 years and 2 months anniversary. XD Thanks for your input though. ((Influences to writing... Off-topic thought, sorry. I wonder, now with my more advanced writing style thanks to my EarthGazer story, If I could write into the Neopian Times. ^_^ I could Sell stories to people and donate the money to TDN's avatar thing. I wonder how many people are trying for the 10X Neopian writer. deal...)) Okay, off-topicness over. I can't wait to see the applications. I think I will flip through these just to see who I think would do good, of course it is not up to me, just want to have an idea on who I think may get the jobs. Quote
The Big Cheese Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Unfortunately, I think we'll be waiting a long time for some new staff ;) Quote
