Len's RPG corner could also be revived.
Hahahahaha.

I wouldn't mind writing, but is the site going to be news, rant, commentary (same as rant, but without the bitterness) or a mix?
All of the above, as appropriate.

Q: When do you expect the site will go into launch? Month, two?
A: See here
The winds of change are blowing, and this is the message they carry. Lightning drivers rejoice! Lightning tanks now fit inside of the Galaxy drop ship. New spawn times: Facilities 20 seconds, AM S 30, Tower is 40. These times might change, depending on the game flow tonight. If you dont like it, bitch politely on the forums and it might get better. Might. Darklight Implant users now carry an icon next to their name when the implant is active. The icon will only appear at 40m or closer, goodluck infiltrators.
And there is a little mini article by me. Yes, I am bored. Yes, I did cut it off at the end. Yes, I will shut up now.
However, I do actively play planetside, I appreciate taking an objective and unbiased view towards news and presenting cases on both, or even all three, sides. I would also like to think I have a good sense of humor, even if it chooses not to show itself here. So, yeah, i'd like to be a planetside writer, or else i'll have to eat your babies.
Furthermore, can we do P&P RPGs? Parce has been known to shine at this, and I have more than a few books of secondary sources I'd be quite happy to review for folks.
Basically... can I write, too, even though I don't play (m)any of these games (poor college student)?

would this be All MMOG, All the Time or would the writers be able to crack stuff out for platform and other computer game genres?
I'm open to just about anything you can make a good pitch for, and that I think might have wide enough interest. The front page will be getting the ability to filter by post categories, so there's no reason not try to include everything tech/gaming; if people don't want to read it, they can just set their filter to only show UO posts or whatever (yeeech).

i feel so SPECIAL i think i'll write something about it....
Even if you're not a main writer, can you still submit stuff? Or do you have to become a writer first?
I could turn out one a week without much problem, if no one else is filling the niche.

You can submit stuff even if you're not an editor. PM it to any of the site's editors (the people who post on the main page), and they'll take it, maybe clean it up a bit, and post it (while giving you due credit of course).
And for everyone else that's expressed an interest in writing in this thread, please submit an example of your writing to me via PM. I'm holding front page articles to a high standard of quality, and I need to make sure you're up to the task -- and if not, I need to give you individual pointers to get you in the right direction.
And since I have no idea what else to write on... Too bad!

I know I'm probably a bit late, but once I get home from college tonight, I think I'll pitch an idea to the Big Boss Man... got a bit more free time now that I won't have to worry about college after today (at least for the summer).

Yeah, no idea if it's good or bad.
If it's a short update, or your style, it's pretty good. It's easy to understand and stuff.
For an editorial or something more opinionated, it's a bit worse, because you want to keep people reading.

Fond memories of Lumthemad.net's final days?
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young, and sure to have our way!
