It's time. GW6 is almost done. I've seen a working version. Not the fanfare reveal maybe but it's not 100% yet so who knows panda might suffer a sudden heart attack and back to square 1, but it's coming! And we need some active staffers.

I am saying without exaggeration that while this isn't going to be the last call for staff probably, it is easily the most important. We need to open the new site GOOD. We are the content delivery system.

THE PHONES RINGING...ITS YOUR NATION OF GW...WILL YOU ACCEPT THE CHARGES?

and you all, in an old gw6 topic. one topic. ONE TOPIC. not all of them. not even the biggest one. a three page topic.

I wish I could help with the staff part

I do love to help. I did games for what, six or seven months, and it was pretty fun, but I bet any senior staffer left right now wants to get their paws on that position.

I'm always available to help with whatever you need help with on the site should you need someone to fill a position.

If you need a staff position or something filled, I wouldn't mind doing it.

If you need a mod or a staff member or someone to help you out i can, i was a former staff member at Golden Falcon

As for staffing, Rowain offered me a position about a month or two back, sent you a PM about it.

Wait what I'd like to contribute to a GW collection of RPG midis or whatever. If someone wants to use my compositions in games I'm fine with that. So yeah, that'd rock pretty cool.

I am willing to help GW however I can!!

is there any way you could make a list of exactly what sort of staffers you need, and what you need them to do? I'm interested in a position (who isn't though) but I'm not sure what would be needed the most, and what I'd be most useful for.

If you need me for staff and SHIT, I used to write for DOP (lol) and I need to write more anyway!

I'd be happy to get into writing articles again, since it's been a while.

I haven't written any tutorials since October 2004 so this is going to mean BIG CHANGES

Just throwing this out there, but I can still write articles.

WHOOPS YOU'RE ALL LIARS!!!

no one in that list even applied btw.

if i can help gw i will

but the last thing i wrote was a tutorial on war minigames in rm2k....

Cry more?

notice how i ain't in that list.....know why?

i just. don't. give a. fuck.

i just. don't. give a. fuck.

id vote for: nno one thinks you are really part of the community

hey, i'd be helping but i was WASN'T EVEN TOLD no.

any staffer positions up for grabs?

i would help out but i don't even know what particular use would be i'm not a consitent person and i should probably leave myself as much free time as i can to do school work.

no one in that list even applied btw.

like i even need to apply. sheesh.

ps - I'll probably do that blast from the past article series we've talked about in the staff forum, since I have taken over the Gwiki and will be trying to promote it in the near future.

I just wanted to say thanks to GZ and headphonics. thank you guys, sincerely, I appreciate what you've done. I don't think I can offer anything besides bad articles written in slack grammar about nothing. I wish I knew something so I could help out. even if I did I know I'd probably be like all those guys up there who said they'd do something but never applied.

Haha ok sure thing man, yeah wasn't that from like more than a year ago back when I would have had the time or interest in doing that. Thanks for the accusation mate!!

Despite this horrible thread I'm sure lars is still willing to send his midis to our resources section (RMN)

Yeah topic is about individual callout and not a hilarious fact that almost everybody here promised to help out at some point and then fucked off forever!

so you think that makes this a good topic instead of one of the worst ones ever

Hell yeah my topics own.

*note generalization

well I would argue that the vast majority of the people up there that offered to volunteer did it with the intention of writing general articles about music or THINGS and there's no shortage of that on the site

there is. we're down to about five regular staffers.

basically I think if you've talked to panda and gz about the site at all, you'd be fucking astonished how much they put into this site and how absolutely LITTLE they recieved in return. I had to quit, so did HL; I think we both had good reasons (and arrogant as it is, I think my reason is so good I could post a thousand dicks and maybe write it off at this point because come on PEACH IN HEAD). despite my best pre-tumor efforts, I couldn't get the current staff to work; james the composer appeared at the eleventh hour to say "don't worry I'm here" and then never came back. ptizzle has consistently VANISHED. other contributors have mysteriously disappeared, like BM. other staffers have from the beginning never promised anything.

and then more have just had to quit over time. and somehow NO ONE ON THE FORUMS realized with a new mainsite we need new articles from everyone. they just assumed the call for staff was a one time only thing, DANCE MONKEYS DANCE.

the fact that I've told Bled to fuck off NUMEROUS TIMES and he's writing more articles than people who were on staff is astonishing, but not as astonishing as the number of people who have pledged to help and then...didn't. Bisse might get ticked but lets face it he's one of the better ones up there; his quote says he was contacted and then obviously nothing was followed up on, and it's no surprise he wouldn't be the first to jump in line. but like I said, he's probably the BEST up there, the rest are all people posting now who said "I'll do anything to help!"

and I didn't go to the most recent topics but there's even more.


sooooo where's that help guys?

if you're detecting some anger, of course there is. I'll admit a bit is self loathing as with my medical shit I can't write fuckall and so I feel like yet again I've left panda holding the bag. but a lot of it is genuine irritation. some mods and staff have even been so arrogant as to say "heh good job guys we did it! WE DID IT" as if there was even a WE! it was panda, gz, and some help from goldenratio and I believe Konix. mostly gz!

there were TWO TOPICS made in private for mods and staff. it was supposed to inspire them to work more. you know what happened?

THEY COMPLAINED ABOUT THE FUCKING COLOR SCHEME FOR LIKE THREE PAGES!!! it was horrible! I felt GROWING DISMAY with every new post.

Idk the way everyone else has dropped the ball on this (into panda's bag heh) has been astonishing. there were years of people saying I'LL HELP WHEN YOU'RE READY but apparently unless you hold someone's hand they can't figure out that there's a constant need for articles???
