    Hello,

    I've posted 2 similar posts and found writers before but they often quit after a month or less.. which is annoying and I can't have that.. So, I am looking for 2 new writers!

    Here is what the job includes:
    - Have an interest in video games / have a personality.. news without personality is boring
    - (also looking for the occasional review of a new game if you play them)
    - Researching and finding video game news from the same day you are posting it (I don't pay if it's old)
    - Find a picture for said post
    - post it on our site.

    We are a legitimate video game news site so your real name would be in the byline of all your articles.

    This is daily work so you would be required to write 1 post per day and during events such as CES, E3 you must upwards of 3.

    So, if you are interested in working with us. Please PM me a sample of your work as well as the amount per post or per 100 words.

    Look forward to hearing from you :)

    P.S. large Indian content writing groups will be ignored. Show me that you love video games in your writing :)

    I think I may have sent you two messages. The site keeps telling me I have zero sent messages, so I'm not sure!

    Hello,

    Well as per usual on DP the writers that agreed quit within 3 days and refuse to answer any questions.. so the job is open again.. I am going to make myself clear on all the info so to cause no confusion ( hopefully )

    1) I'm not going to hire any Indians (I'm sure many of you are great writers.. just not interested in working with your timezone)
    2) I will pay no more then $1/100 words as this is lifetime work as long as you keep at it!
    3) You must have some interest in video games.. drone articles are boring.. ones that have a bit of opinion / humor are what we are looking for
    4) saying "I'm interested in your job" without any of the required info posted in the first post will be ignored.

    Again, I don't mean to sound like a jerk.. Just need to make sure I am clear about what type of writer I am looking for and to clarify that is a DAILY writer.

    Although I believe I wouldn't be a good fit for what you are wanting (since I don't play games on a regular basis), I would like to commend you for coming here and looking for writers.
    I, myself, hire writers here and there and I know how hard it can be to return to a forum where nothing good is being returned.

    I just wasn't sure if anyone had thanked you yet for returning your business here at Digital Point, so even though I do not know you, thank you!!!

    I would love to write for you, I've tried sending a PM but the site says I have to wait 6 hours so I sent you an email instead. (native english, usa born and raised massive gaming enthusiast here)
