From my handy dandy SG user blog… (click here)
Since we started we’ve been counting down the minutes until we could implement this new feature, as we feel it is the next logical step in the growth of the Sarcastic Gamer community.
The addition of USER BLOGS to Sarcastic Gamer means that you now have a place to write your own articles and opinions, and where those articles and opinions have the potential to reach thousands of readers by way of the Front Page of SarcasticGamer.com.
If not already, shortly, you’ll be able to begin building your personal blogs.
Once this happens, we’ll be searching every day for content that stands out, and displaying that content to our front-page audience. The system we’ll be using to do this isn’t even really invented yet, but for now, it’s going to be a manual process.
Some tips for being published to the Front Page.
1. Write often
2. Avoid an abundance of profanity
3. No l33t speak.
4. Spell check
5. Proofread - The less challenging it is for Lono to get that piece ready for publication, the higher the better your chances of being published.
6. Above all, stay with it. Write because its something you enjoy, and try to look at going “Front Page” as a bonus.
The blogs are a long-awaited chance for Sarcastic Gamer to give its community the voice it deserves. Please use them, and get out there and promote your new blog.
Welcome to the next stage of the Sarcastic Gamer community.
Captain DDL will be placing links on or near your new user profile very shortly.

Another feature I will never use! Seriously though this sounds like a cool idea. Who gets to be the poor guy to go through all these?

@ Artemas…
Actually, you troll our site enough we thought you might be the perfect candidate.
The pay is competitive with most volunteer jobs.

Sadly Im pretty poor at sorting through “good stuff” and “bad stuff”
But if you seriously need someone I’m open.
