Forum Moderators – We are always looking for active members that want to contribute to the community if you wish to apply send an email to 8waymodapp@gmail.com Include the name of the forum you wish to apply to in the title of the email, a bit about your history with the community and why you believe you would make a good addition to the 8wayrun staff.

Just to clarify, there is no monetary compensation from 8wayrun for these services. This is a community thing so all you get is the love of the community, and lets face it all you need is love. So expect your due compensation :)

Thank you for your time

 

You have no idea the kinds of bitches I pull with this gig.

Absolutely none.

lol. then fuq this I'm out.

 

Hmm, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at this. What sort of stuff would you guys generally need to be on the front page? I've always been more of a reader then a writer - so just curious :>

 

If I knew where else I could find information about tournaments and going's ons I would definitely apply.

 

I mean I'd apply but I have nothing good to talk about so yeah. I'm so horrible :c

 

I vote for IdleMind for admin.

 

I may do this, let me send you something in a bit.

 

So I have realized that you all want money, so how about this. Someone figure out how to get a big name sponsor to pick up our website, you guys get DrPepper in the header and now we can afford to actually pay people.

These fuckers hear money and now that's all they can think about, so if you want money help us get some

WTF? They are ALL asking for money? The current moderators are happy with volunteer work...

Idiots who ask just for money. Get yo ass outside and get a job if you want money.

 

Is there a somewhere to look at specifics for each position? I'd kind of like a rough idea of the time commitment for each position and the duties they entail. For writing I'd like general ideas of topics and tone. For moderating...powers and responsibilities.

I vote him for columnist

I also want to submit my entry for columnist, but I don't have any fighting game article based sample writing, just some short stories I wrote back in college. I do have a degree in creative writing however, and I have an idea for a column I could write right now about community if I could submit that.

 

I do it for the members of my forums. They are my people. I am their leader.

Drunk with power ;D

 

Lol I'm having trouble believing this site doesn't make enough money to pay its columnists. But if you'd only do it for money then you're in it for the wrong reason

 

Oh my God, people really want to get paid for this?

 

Yo I just want my Brazilian and Alaska bitches.

 

Maybe you could have a "call for papers" in addition to adding more writing staff. The commitment sounds a little intimidating.

In all seriousness, I respectfully ask you guys "Can we stop with this, please." Thank you, really, but Bibulus is doing his best, so show him support and get behind him and let the past be the past.

 

I'm a new mod... shit is serious business

We're just showing you some (much deserved) love Idle... shouldn't come at the cost of Bibulus though.

"I really dont want to work in your shit company, but if nobody else does it...meh...maybe i'll do it."
