The Random Blog: Authors Wanted!

How would you like to be able to write articles and add them to an awesome blog dedicated to spreading randomness? Now you can! You may have heard about the random blog a long time ago, but it never took off. Now, I'm trying to revive it by adding more authors! As an author, you are able to post new posts on the blog. Here are the requirements:

-You must have enough free time.
-You must be a good writer.
-You must be trusted (not getting banned, not spamming, etc.).
-You must be random (jk).

     I am accepting 10 authors. If an author is inactive or posting spam/bad things I will remove them and another spot will be open.

Authors:

-Dazachi
-shamrocker
-samurai768
-juststickman
-
-
-
-
-
-

To view the random blog click here.

If you have any questions that were not yet answered please ask them here.

IMPORTANT!!!!

If you are accepted, follow these procedures:

1. Go to http://random-blog-omg.blogspot.com/

2. Go to one of my comments in "Random Food Fight" or "Random Story" and click the author's name (random-admin).

5. Click "Email"

6. Send your email address

Re: The Random Blog: Authors Wanted!

I'm trying to decide if I want to help or not. What sort of subjects would you want the authors to write about?

I get it, although I don't know if I have time.
Maybe I could be a weekend poster?

Um...well...to add you to the list, I need your email address so I can add you to the list. I know we're not allowed to post email addresses on scratch, so this is how you do it:

1. Go to http://random-blog-omg.blogspot.com/

2. Go to one of my posts and at the bottom you should see "Posted by Random-Admin at 6:09 PM 0 comments"

3. Click "Random Admin"

4. Click "Email"

5. Send your email address

Re: The Random Blog: Authors Wanted!

You or someone else is likely to be refreshing the page over and over.

Anyways, I'm not really applying to be an Author, but I know someone who could be one. I know this may seem like advertising this site, but I'm telling you to go here and talk to a user named Boxhead. For his Blog Writing Randomness, visit the Sprite Library (only accessible to those that sign up for some reason). If you don't want to sign up there, I've heard that there's also a non-hidden version of the Blog in the Blog Section of the user BWOG's forum, the Random Forum.

1. What do you mean "me or someone else"? Shh...don't tell anyone it's me :P

2. I think it's better if people apply their selves for the job, but thanks for the suggestions. :)

Re: The Random Blog: Authors Wanted!

I mean I'm looking at the recent posts through the 'Show Recent Posts page', like I assume everyone else is. You can't see the number of views for a topic from there so the fact that you're bringing attention to the fact that it has lots of views, might mean you're the one behind it. But that's just a theory.

Highlight my post saying "What do you mean 'me or someone else'?" :)

Re: The Random Blog: Authors Wanted!

I'm sorry I don't usually highlight posts. I'm not completely paranoid.

Gotta ask my mom about the email, but I want to - I'll edit this post saying whether I can or not. I mean, I might be off on some days, because I get grounded.


Answer: Yes.  big_smile  You can add me once I'm done with the email thing.
