The Wrestling Game Forum

If you are reading this then you have decided to or want to know what to do when you become an Article Writer or News Reporter for TWG. Thank you for taking the time to read this message. These are the rules and are important for when you create articles or news reports in the future.

Note: To everyone who always spam the "burnt" people with "I N33d Supp0rt3rs! Cn 1 rit3 4 u?"... I read. I delete. I sip my glass of Vanilla Coke and move onto the next message.

Articolists:
-- Show Articles MUST be in between 1500 and 2000 words long. Opinionative Articles MUST be in between 1000 and 1500 words long. Opinionative Articles also MUST only contain 1 topic or subject per article.
-- Please use common sense when typing up your articles. Your articles cannot contain swearing, masked swears, links or inappropriate material.
-- There is to be no HTML embedded pictures, videos or material in the article. Text based Articles only!
-- Please feel free to acknowledge the game and the people who have submitted in ideas. BUT don't go overboard with it. These articles get posted off site as well and many of the people who read these don't know what TWG is or the people in the game that you might be talking about.
-- Remember your allotted day to submit articles in. If they aren't handed in on time, your spot may go to a floating article from someone who has handed their article on time.
For the show articles, it is normally accepted 1 or 2 days after the show is broadcasted. It is easier to write notes or even complete the article during the show. You might not think this is practical, but it could be helpful for you!
-- This MUST be your original work. People have been caught using other people's material before. If you are caught copying from other sites and claiming it to be your work then you WILL be fired from writing and boiled in a vat of Tabasco sauce.
-- On that note, there have been times when people have been removed because they haven't told me that they are posting their articles outside of TWG. If you want to post your work onto a forum or other sites, all you have to do is MESSAGE ME.
-- If you have any other questions about being an article writer or about anything that isn't covered in here, please don't hesitate to PM me on Server 1 or in here.

News Reporters:
-- DO NOT under ANY circumstances Copy and Paste directly from the site. This is your own unique explanation of the story, results or situation. Try and give it as much detail as you possibly can. You might be able to turn a 2 line story into a 7 line small report with a little detail.
-- Please make sure that you mention where you got the story from. The source helps people out when there are long reports. This also gives the source credit for the story.
-- Make sure that you look to see if your story has already been posted by another news reporter. There is nothing worse than two news stories that are exactly the same posted by different reporters. Just take the extra few seconds to check if your story has already been reported on before you report it.
-- Just the same as Article Writers. Please, no pictures or videos embedded in HTML. Text only.
-- The required quota is 14 news reports a week. That is only 2 per day. If you miss a day, then make up for it by doing 3 reports over the next two days to make up for it. Please don't be selfish and do 10 reports on one day then 4 the next day so you don't have to do anything for the rest of the week. Give the other reporters something to work with as well.
-- If you are stuck for a news story, try to message your fellow reporters for help. News Reporters need to help each other out. News Reporters are a team that are working together to bring the wrestling news to the TWG players. Not have a race to see who can get the best news stories of the day.
-- If you have any other questions about being a news reporter or about anything that isn't covered in here, please don't hesitate to PM me on Server 1 or in here.

If you are going to be away for an extended period of time or you cannot fulfil your duties as a writer anymore, please tell me and we can try and work something out. I am easily available on Server 1, here on the forum, my website or anywhere else that you know I am available.

Thank you all for reading and I hope our writers are better than ever!
