    The OwnedCore News Team is Recruiting!

    We're looking for motivated members to join us on the OwnedCore News Team. The News Team is a small, dedicated group of individuals who write compelling original articles and conversational pieces on a regular basis covering topics of interest to the OwnedCore community. These topics range from information about upcoming games and their expansions to coverage/analysis of major announcements on relevant games, and other articles which set OwnedCore apart from the rest.

    As a member of the News Team, you will:

    • Write interesting and high quality articles that both draw new users into the OwnedCore family, as well as provide current and older users entertaining and informative content to read.
    • Keep the front page of OwnedCore alive with details about the site's contents, contests and community.


    Requirements:


    • Have an excellent command of both conversational and written English, including both grammar and spelling.
    • Have a passion for World of Warcraft, MMOs and Gaming in general.
    • Be able to write articles on a regular basis, especially during and after major announcement events such as Gamescom, Blizzcon and E3
    • Have a record free of any major infractions and bans on OwnedCore.


    Benefits:


    • The elusive and rare Yellow username.
    • Have your articles shown to on the front page of a website with almost one million registered members.
    • Join a group of members who are respected for their dedication to keeping both the front page and the site full of fresh, up to date information and content.
    • First in line access to promotional beta keys.


    Interested in applying?


    Simply write a 500 to 2,000 word article on a topic relevant to the OwnedCore audience, and post it in the appropriate section. If it is WoW related, post in WoW General, if it's about D3, post it in D3 General, and so on. After it's done - notify Smitten or HI5 about your submission.

    There's no minimum rank requirement to apply, but it's recommended that you be at least an Active Member to show that you have, and can continue to contribute to the site.

    Have fun, and good luck to all those applying!

    Is there a certain date you'd like applications to be done by?

    When will those of us who wrote an article know whether or not we got a place? Are we going to be wandering, stumble upon an old wooden shack and be asked to join the news team or die?

    My favorite thing about being on the newsteam however many years ago(when I was 16 lol) was always the community aspect and being able to conduct think-pieces on a large scale with fellow members. Just remember that if you get the position that the majority of people hear about gaming news from other bigger publications, and almost all of the time you are just going to be reading those very same outlets for story ideas and day to day things to write about. The huge difference is that you will have a community here that wants to talk with you about your articles, even if they have already read the news elsewhere.

    Rather than have your audience consume, have them reply.
