RPGDot "Mod Editors" Wanted
RPGDot Team, 2005-02-28

The positions have been filled, so there is no point in applying anymore

RPGDot is looking for a few, good people for our newly-created position(s) of "Mod Editor" - to create newsbits and, occasionally, do interviews and/or articles pertaining to fan-made game "mods/mod tools and mod news" on the games within our very large database.

• Traversing the internet for newly created game mods, mod tools, mod interviews, and mod news/articles/editorials pertaining to games in the RPGDot database.
  
• Creating newsbits for all relevant, valid mod material uncovered.
  
• Occasionally utilizing your creativity in writing Mod Articles (Editorials, Interviews, Mod Impressions and/or Mod Reviews, etc.).
  

Secondary Duties

• Assisting other TeamRPGDot Editors, Editor-In-Chiefs, and Admins on an as needed basis.
  
• Contributing to, and participation in, such diverse RPGDot activities as our annual GOTY (Game Of The Year Awards), Polls, etc.
  
• Staying abreast of events throughout the RPGDot network by frequent perusings of TeamRPGDot e-mails.
  

Qualifications/Requirements

• Carefully submit the Day/Time you feel confident you can maintain for the purposes of Mod Reporting. This will greatly assist the RPGDot Staff in assigning Reporting Shifts on an "as needed" basis.
  
• Obviously, some exposure and/or experience in Game Modding is desirable (Please Note: This does NOT include Game Hacking, WAREZ, Software Piracy experience, etc.), but not an overwhelming job requirement - as the RPGDot Staff will be available to assist the new Mod Editor(s) as needed.
  
• Some creative writing skills, in addition to competent English grammatical skills and a fairly good comprehension of the English language, are a prerequisite for this position.
  
• RPGDot Mod Editors must have the flexibility to both work independently on their newsbits and pet projects - yet also be able to fit in comfortably (and competently) in the occasional Team Effort.
  
• Candidates for the Mod Editor position(s) should be dedicated , enthusiastic , individuals with a good sense of humor ; have an eye for detail and possible discrepancies in mod material; communicate well with others (i.e. for keeping in touch with Team events, notifying other team members of any "pet projects" you may be working on/planning future work on, maintaining a good working relationship with all of your "outside contacts", notifying other team members in the event you are unable to make any scheduled reporting, etc.); and should always be sincere in carrying out the Primary/Secondary duties of their position.
