After reading Che's so called interview I'd like to ask what comes next?
Interviewing those from the Recruitment thread looking for a new KD would be a nice move!
Keep it up....erm I mean...down.

The interviews are always going to be varied guys. Some you are going to like, others you arent. It isnt about producing a whole popular genre of people that get interviewed. You have to take each interview as they come and for what they are.
If dark azn will stop saying odd I 100% support him being the next interview
@MS those interviews sound awesome! As far as some people not liking certain interviews, I think they have every right to criticize it. If it was just blind adoration, how would you know if people really enjoyed the articles, or how you could improve on them? Overall I think you've done a great job, I've enjoyed the articles/interview so far for the most part and there has been a huge increase in board activity which I would contribute largely to the news team. Just saying a little criticism isn't bad(I know, easy for me too say! :) ). I look forward to the next set of interviews/articles
Criticize, yes. Demand we take them down, no. They don't have a right to do that.
there is no direction correlation in the "increase of traffic in forum" because of the articles produces, unless there is an actual survey done you can't say that is the reason, i don't think there is an increase at all.
ghost:
so are you saying any retarded idiot that approach you to be interview you'll interview them and it makes for a good interview?
so i see it now, this is like national enquirer any article that is produce here people shouldn't take it seriously
That's not what I said at all. Don't put words in my mouth and get pissed at me about them.
hmm...Quote:

Starcraft war - 1.9k views
ect.
Yea, definitely no increased traffic...
there has been an obvious increase in traffic on the boards, and it all started around the time the news articles started coming out, certainly helped by the fact that there are links on the throne page. dont see how you can argue that. just look at the number of people viewing each thread for example, there used to be a handful, now theres usually 20+. dont need a survey to tell me that

You guys are the media of the game.Its up to you to decide whether you want to continue on this path after this wrong step you just took and turn yourself into a yellow press.You surely will have an initial success until ppl stop reading those nonsense cause believe it or not I think the majority of the community is not as retarded as you might think and sooner or later will just skip your articles simply because there is nothing essential and new in them.
Take care and good luck with the section.
There just wasn't a single quote in the interview that was interesting. It's that simple. If you choose to interview people on all levels that's fine, but they need to have something to say....
hey even hollywood has to make bad movies before the good ones can come out.
Instead of whining so much why not interview someone yourself? someone you think is 'good enough' to be interviewed.Quote:

Until he has the guts to move away from all of his SKD buddies and actually succeeds in a non-SKD, then I will have zero respect for him. Anyone could crown in an SKD, even Bishop ffs.Quote:

Guys stop flaming GLW for the article. There is always going to be a mix of articles and some of them are going to be good and others are going to be less good. We arent always going to get the mix right. It was che that came across as a little rehearsed and flat....nothing to do with GLW. Just stay tuned for other interviews and articles as we progress through the age.
stop whining, the lot of you. Jesus, its like babysitting a bunch of 3 year olds sometimes.
There is no debate that some interviews will be lesser than others Mad_Scottish.Yet I fail to agree that this article turning rehearsed and flat is entirely Che's fault.After all it was not him who posted it ,isn't he?Quote:

I understand your position to back up your colleague reporter in public - that's a fine thing to do.Yet I'm sure you realize that if it was you posting this garbage the critics would have been the same, so there is nothing personal towards GLW on my part at least.I honestly hope he will take all the flaming as you put it (I wouldn't) as a man and will make sure to maintain or even raise the level achieved so far.With all my heart I wish him good luck in that.
@Lestat : You do realize there is difference between someone like me or you posting something and an article advertised on everyone's throne page....or you don't....
First, my apologies for having offended anyone but back the hell off. Second, I refuse to take it like a man as that would require a whole series of operations and treatments I have absolutely no interest in. So you can keep your luck in that heart of yours :)
Well I guess my posts don't exactly inspire a lot of attention. But no I don't think there is a huge difference in the larger scheme of the game in relation to the board that accompanies it. People post and wether it be a report or bollocks like those other guys post, then it is valid. I'm not saying that you can't comment the way you have but I have to sit here and listen to the crap that spew out of certain peoples mouths and this is a huge improvement on a lot of that. At the end of the day it is one thread of many and you can take it as you please.
what does view have to do with anything? there is link on top of the throne page cuz it was added so are you stating the fact they saw che's name they actually are in the forum cuz of him, if you correlate that event that i would classify as you as mentally handicapQuote:

LOL.Reading this makes me think I made my point.If I didn't...well I did my best.I have no interest in making this a 10 pages thread so Palem/Bishop may feel free to close it.I wont whine as I do not look for an undeserved spotlight like some other individuals do.Quote:

That said, if something isn't popular, it isn't popular and it will die away. The fact that you guys are crying so damn hard is ridiculous. On top of that, you can't even agree on what you're complaining about.
Edit: oh, and koti, glw is not a guy lol
There is no conspiracy here Palem.We dont have to agree about anything.Everyone is free to speak their minds.Quote:
