Where is the comic that use to be on this site?
Does this means they quit and that you need more people?
._. it would be awesome to do some blogging for PL, but my only disabilities are:
Software and ability to create and manipulate photos and screenshots
Knowledge of basic HTML
Any location restrictions on this?
Mmmmm..... this would be nice if i could think of improvements/ things to write about xD
The only thing I can't do is html, and im a high school student so is this like a real job? Because I'm not sure I'd full fill the credentials... I would love to write for you guys and share my thoughts (been with PL from the launch :)
This would really great. Though, I'm European, play on European servers and still on upper secondary school. Don't know if those are limiting matters :/
I'm good for all on the list, but I'm a rather shy person...
I have a few questions:
1. By "Basic HTML" do you mean like knowledge of Dreamweaver? Or are you talking more on the coding side of things.
2. What would be the requirement on the frequency of articles? Would one piece a week be enough or are you looking for more?
Since I am currently in college and have no job I would be very interested in posting here (even if there is no pay) but I would only be able to post once a week or so.
I would love to do a blog but the only time I have posted something was either in the forum or on Deviant Art. I have often given advice to my friend who is a fellow rogue, or to anyone who needs help with a task that I have performed before, like my guildies or random posters in the general chat... I love helping. And I think what would be different as a blog-is explaining the soloing/raid experiences of a member of the Horde; which as far as I have seen, on this site, you haven't discussed yet. So I think it would be a benefit. If its acceptable to submit an application without previous posts please contact me, if not ta ta for now :)
I'd love to blog for you guys, but i'm from europe, is that a problem?
Any age or country restriction on this one?
Make Juggy write on here more. Or Jeff.
I would really love blogging for PL, but I'm not sure on my Solid Writing. Has not wrote many blog text (but I'm blogging on Myspace sometimes). And I don't have software to manipulate photos :( Don't know if it's ok if I'm writing from Norway. Should wait maybe a year to hope for that job, if I do not got software to manipulate photos after a year. Also I need some training in HTML. Hope PL need a blogger in a year so I can apply for the job
Sounds fun. I'm with Shiggy though, what are the requirements as far as frequency of blog posts? Possibly length as well?
Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask. Thanks!
By the way, this site and the videos are awesome. I'm loving the Soloing Northrend series.
If Project Lore are looking for more next year i'll have a go but I'm too young currently. Stupid laws! Who needs them?
I have everything on the list... 'cept solid writing abilities. I mean, I CAN write. Just not so it attracts people.
It would be nice to see a druid, or someone with druid experience, get the job. I've been waiting to hear more representation by this wonderful class on this website.
Hi, I'm John Walker. I live in Ireland and I believe my blogging could take a new light to the game . For instance, I used to play on Private Servers but have very recently switched to the real thing and I think I could take a look at the low leveling side of things as I'm sure many people here are casual and starting out too. Also I have a different view point of WoW than you guys as I live across the pond. Thanks for Listening

I wouldn't be able to think of new ideas. lol
*sighs* I used to know basic HTML a few years back but I sadly forgot it and am now to lazy to relearn it...
This sounds great! Hopefully you will be getting an email from me as soon as I can write some blogs!
I *means* that all of the people who used to write for the site are busy raiding and cannot be bothered to write about it. (just kidding.
This site is amazing and I frankly cannot believe anything of this consistent quality exists around this community. It actually has enabled me to quit the game because I can get my complete WOW fix vicariously through the guys. Much better for me as I just don't have time to play at the moment.
Oh and it would be cool in the future if NO ONE EVER SAID they were over powered. I lay the latest hunter nerf completely at the feet of this show and at the feet of Dorkins. Blerg.
do you have to be from US?
Sounds great,I'm interested,but I'm wondering what you mean with the posts or guides examples, do you want a full article or just to tell what you would write about?
You guys cover things thoroughly from the Alliance perspective which is great. You also have raised the question at least twice why would anyone play for the Horde. Considering one of my main toons is an undead mage do you think that actually covering things from the Horde perspective would add more depth to the site?
