So sad that most of the fantastic articles get 5 pages of comments even though they have gorgeous artwork and amazing writing... and a 20 word post with a pasted Tweet from Destiny gets 100 pages in 24 hours. | ||

Either way, I hope you guys find a good dedicated Proleague guy and some more consistent coverage of the European scene. They'd both be great for the site. | ||

Is there a way to apply and do it just during the summer, I might be able to manage that? | ||

You're kind of asking for a lot as a voluntary position. I mean obviously team liquid should have the best writers, as it is THE esports website, but I would hope people would get some sort of compensation for your demands. | ||

You don't have to apply, you know. Anybody who doesn't feel passionately about it probably shouldn't. But there are fantastic people who don't care whether it's paid or not and do it because they love e-Sports, StarCraft, and TeamLiquid, and I have immense respect for those people. The people you're trying to "defend" do what they do because they love what you are attacking, so please go away. | ||

Thats quite the assumption, no one but TL knows its financial state. Though I would like to hear the reasons why such a demanding position comes without pay. | ||

Why? Should banlings and liquipedia editors and translators also get paid? We are on TL because we love something about TL whether SCBW, SC2, DOTA2, LoL, General, etc. And many of us like it so much we want to contribute to make TL an even greater community. TL has from the very beginning been built with voluntary hours of passionate people. The fact that TL has become awesome enough that some get paid is amazing, but that doesn't change TL's foundation. No-one is getting coehersed into this. This is an opportunity for people to try their hand at writing and help make TL even more awesome. | ||
