To that end, we've maintained a revolving door for staff wherein new blood is always welcomed and those that didn't provide during the latest issue are let go without rancor. Of course, they're welcome back, but we don't do the dead weight thing. For whatever reason, we're getting down to a handful of people doing this week in and out, and so it's time to ask for people to please step up. If you think you can contribute to the [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/5597]RPGN[/url], you need to let us know, via PM, so we can cut you in the loop for the next issue.[/indent] [/hider] [b]The Conversation: [/b][indent][b] [Url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/26690/posts/ooc] How to make people (other than yourself) like your character [/url][/b] Guild member [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/1066] axleonex [/url] gives their opinion on how to make an interesting character.

We are always accepting suggestions on categories and content. We're particularly interested in displaying people's artwork as a banner (and will fully credit it and link your gallery -- woo). For more information, feel free to [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/5597]PM RPGN.[/url] [/i] [/indent] [hider=Get Involved][b]Get Involved![/b][indent]Do you make banners? Are you a circa-1995 big-haired news reporter with a 'SCOOP?' Here are some of the ways you can help with our next issue of RPGN: - [b]RPGN banners[/b] - Be creative, do what you want! Get exposure (we credit banners). Submissions should be 700x200px, please! - [b]Let us know if your RP has a birthday coming up or is successfully concluded[/b] -- We want to give credit to the committment that both players and GM are showing in keeping their RP's going strong in the long-term. - [b]Player Questions[/b] - A user-submitted question will be answered on the Guild News, with the hope that it will inspire a larger discussion. Submit your question today in the [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/5597]RPGN[/url] PM box! - [b]We are Recruiting Staff[/b] - If you wish to be involved in the next edition of the RPGN, please hit up the [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/5597]RPGN[/url] PM box! (Note: You will be cut into the loop for the issue after the upcoming one, so if you PM between today (date of current) and the next issue (date of next) you will be working on the issue after that (date of the one after next) The way the PM system works, we need to have who is doing the work set a couple weeks in advance. In the event of a large number of applicants, we will establish a queue for subsequent issues.)[/indent] [/hider][hider=RPGN Staff][b]RPGN Staff[/b][indent] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/133]AkiBlue[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/444]Rare[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/149]Kirra[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/322]Jorick[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/383]Lillian Thorne[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/9]HeySeuss[/url][/indent] Banner provided by: [b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/444]Rare[/url][/b][/hider]
