The Video Game Room is here but it's lacking content for the systems that aren't available in the Retro Game Room, which currently includes: Sega Dreamcast, Sony Playstation, Nintendo Wii, Sony Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 (more systems and features will be added in the future).

In other words, I need a lot of helpers to help us add content to a lot of games. Once we can get content and graphics for most of the 5 systems I listed above, than I'll focus on adding more systems.

Here's the positions available:

Prerequisite for all positions: You must be able to come to the site at least 3 days a week and be able to invest at least 20 hours a month into the site.

Game Reviewer 3 positions available
Your job will be to review games for the systems exclusive to the Video Game Room.
Prerequisite: You must submit 2 reviews to any of the exclusive systems in the video game room and than post them to this thread. If we like your reviews, you're hired.

Screenshot Adder 3 positions available
Your job will be to find screenshots for the games and add them
Prerequisite: Must be either a trusted member or been a member for at least a year and have at least 10 posts

Boxart Adder 3 positions available
Your job will be to find box art graphic for the games and add them
Prerequisite: Must be either a trusted member or been a member for at least a year and have at least 10 posts

Article Writer 2 positions available
Your job will be to write articles for games. Refer to this forum for more info: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/forum.php?id=111
Prerequisite: You must submit 2 articles to the video games forum. If we like your reviews, you're hired (and we'll move your articles to the articles forum).

Content Adder 5 positions available
Your job will be to add content to the games.
Prerequisite: Must be either a trusted member or been a member for at least a year and have at least 10 posts


I'm hoping to hire at least 10 people, preferably more because this is going to be a big job getting content and graphics added to all these games. For more information on the new 'Video Game Room', go to this thread: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39056

If you apply, let me know which role you want (you can have up to 2 positions). Also let me know why you think you deserve the position and how much free time you have to commit to the position.

I think that after having been here for quite a while, I should be contributing more to Vizzed.

However, I can start tonight and tomorrow (4 hours total), and after two relatively inactive weeks of May (I could probably squeeze in a few hours here and there as I have for posting these past few weeks), I will have half of May and the rest of summer to keep contributing.

I think that after complaining about my lack of time these past few days, I should be more intent on using the several hours of time that I do have on here to better Vizzed, rather than just squander it on personal goals that in the end have harmed me more than helped me. I would like to make up for the past month and the destruction that I might have caused.

Once those two weeks of May are over, then I will have practically unlimited time here on Vizzed as it will be summer break. (Actually even looking ahead, I have managed to opt out of a years worth of classes next year based on what I have taken these past two years, meaning that I will have more time next year in college than this year )

I would be willing to be content adder and possibly another position if you would want me to in the future. I had done some content adding from time to time when I was RGR Staff in 2010 when I found games that were lacking some information and a few when I was local. So I know what I am doing.

I would love the opportunity to go back to being a helper, rather than just a user.

Note: I am getting closer and closer to being trusted, I now have 5 trust points and can rate other users.
Alright David, I would really like to put more of my time into the site. I would be honored to become a content adder, but one small problem. I am not a trusted member, but I do feel like you can make an exception for me. Why? Because I come to the site everyday more pumped to be online, then alive, I really love the site, and I am ready to commit to this. What is my time schedule? Sure. I can come home at 4:00 Pm from school and play until about 8:30 Pm - 9:30 Pm. That is a lot of time! 4 & 1/2 to 5 & 1/2 hrs. Weekdays. For weekends I can do the job from 12:00 Pm to 12:00 Am. That's 12 hours David. Please trust me, and give me a chance, you can read all my posts and see that I have NO bad intentions for this site. I really want to help you grow, and listen David, you will NOT be disappointed for letting me join as a content adder. And in the summer after school is over, I will have 100% vizzed time, if you hire me, please consider my offer. Please give me a chance, Thank you.

Klutch : did you read this part of the prerequisites?
"or been a member for at least a year and have at least 10 posts"
I'm pretty sure that if you meet that goal, you have a big chance of making it.

I will either be applying to Game Reviewer or Article Writer. You may choose which ever one you think I will fit best.

Here are four game reviews:

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the 7 Stars
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=38967

Super Mario 64
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=38969

Super Mario Bros. 3
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=38954

Luigi's Rescue Adventure
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39058


I hope I will be accepted to either one of my choices above.

        

For the newer systems, are you wanting the games reviewed to be new games coming out, or just any games therein?

I could easily write up 2 reviews, it's fun to do every once in a while, but still debating on if I'm taking C++ in a couple weeks. So my question for now: What exactly do you mean "add content?" Does 'content' just refer to the descriptions of the games? Or is there more to it? 

ProGamer135 : For future reference, don't copy paste your whole review onto another thread. For things like this, just provide the URL to your review page. I fixed it for ya.
Also, I know you have had to change your layout before, but the new one you have is also very painful to the eyes and makes it super difficult to read.

David, I'm up to be screenshot taker and boxarts picture taker but, how long we have to stay on our role?
It's because I don't know how will be my free time in 3 months (I will be making 16 years old at August 13th), because I'm planning to get a job at that time.
Time I have to work seems fine, but having 2 roles increase my time of work? Or I can share the time you are asking for the 2 jobs?
I think this can be a pretty good training for me to get used when the time of work comes, this may help me know how job is like, and also, helps me prove myself that I AM capable of doing something good either for myself or others.
I have my entire day free, except the morning, the time I go to school. I don't do much at home except pass the day lurking around Vizzed, so I can work the 20 hours you are asking very easily, and even more, but as I said earlier, I don't know how much time I will have free in 3 months, since I plan to start working.
The interesting fact is that after 2 days I made 1 year on Vizzed, you posted this announcement hiring people, so if I didn't had became a Trusted Member, I could apply for this job.

rcarter2 : I'm deeply sorry about that. I was going to add that the Local Moderators should ignore the review words, but I hadn't remebered... Sorry about the catastrophe... I hope I will become accepted...

septembern : I'd love to help!

I want to earn my keep. David, you know me a decent bit, for the time that I have been here, I want to do my keep. I think my posting speaks for itself, but I need some new topics to post on. So I think I would be a great idea for Screen shot Adder. I actually look stuff up. I could even find a few decent game play clips if you wanted me to.

Is there anything else I need to be eligible for Screen shot Adder? I checked it, and from what you posted, I think I would be a great choice for Screen shot taker.

I would love to have a position as a reviewer or an article writer, with preference on the reviewer. Below is a review for Donkey Kong Country Returns, for Nintendo Wii.





https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39119


And here is a newly minted review for Lord of the Rings: Conquest for XBox 360.

https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39127

Can Local Moderators apply? If so, I've got plenty of time to contribute as a Content adder. As for qualifications, I worked as RGR Staff for about 6 months and Local for the past five. I'm on all the time.

Just spitballing here, but what if I emailed the makers of the walkthroughs for various games and asked them if we could put our reviews on our site? It'd add tons of content, and that's be hugely helpful for games such as Legend of Zelda and Pokémon.

I already review modern games as I beat them... so hey, you could always note that as well

Nice to see people being hired soon!

I would help you as a reviewer, but I can't post more then one thread a day for the newbie limits, except RGR reviews. So, I'll just link a few of my RGR reviews while I wait for the opportunity to post some actual modern reviews.
I apologize for them not being modern enough.


Jewel Master - Genesis Review

https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39000

Captain Planet and the Planeteers - NES Review

https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=39062

I know that I did just get added as a Reviewer just yesterday, but if it's ok, could I also apply for a Boxart Adder? It sounds like a pretty simple and nice job to do, and I know plenty of places in which I can get box art for games, so I'd have absolutely no problem with doing this job.

I'm honestly quite terrible at writing reviews, so I'll go for screenshot adder. lol

So screen shot adding doesn't seem to be very hard, since it's just finding pictures of games and adding them. It only requires a lot of time, which I always have. Heck, I probably have too much time; this will give me something to do lol. Well, I can be fairly responsible, a lot more so than when I had first joined, so I think I can take on this job with ease, and without any trouble.

I'll put in a lot of effort in helping get this Video Game Room up and running, even though I'll just be adding screenshots. I believe to be a fair choice for this job, because I'm not going to go slacking, for I believe in this site and like it all, and I feel I need to contribute more than I have been. I hope you fell that I am a good choice for the job, David, I look forward to being VGR Staff(or what ever it's called). lol

Ill be applying for Article Writter, cant do up some to show for a couple of hours.. have dinner to make and eat   Leave me a spot/chance lol
