Any takers? I can't have a US1 section without someone helping me directly since I won't be on the server for 3months. I mean I could just do meta analysis, but its more entertaining when people actually know rather than read whats going on.

I might be interested. I can be un-biased if I try a little. My clan chose to live in a chaos city in the middle of the map, so we are as un-biased as it gets right now.
How much work would be involved? how often and how many articles?
I would love to help, but I don't have that much time to devote to something like this.

You've seen my political reports right, the ones that only dealt with the major wars? Those took about 2 weeks of research since I wasn't directly involved with them. I'm not expecting people to get into the details that I did if they are contributors, just basic things like who, what, when, where and why in the major conflicts no theory craft necessary.
I'll have the Death v NWO war report done by Sunday probably and I just started getting info and thats because I won't write it until then probably if that helps show you a time commitment.

I would possibly be interested if this wasn't xpiher-related.

You would say that :rolleyes:
In case you didn't know, I don't edit the posts made by other people aside from some grammatical errors. Read the critique written by an ex-player for proof.

Every article in the past 2 months was written by you.
Question/Poll: what do most players read for Darkfall news? Bannerfall, some other news site, or nothing?
Xpiher, if you create a new section just for NA-1 and if you don't infest it with your presence then you may get a lot more interest. Also, the site in general is eye-straining and difficult to read. Change the formatting and background so it's more like http://agontribune.blogspot.com/ and you'll probably get a lot more views.

blog gets about 200 views a day. But since I'm using wordpress and not blogspot I dont think I can make it look like that. Originally, I had all the post liked to pages, but I couldn't get it to work properly. If anyone has used wordpress before I could defeiently use the help to change the lay out. Alternatively, if anyone know CSS code I could edit the lay out that way.
Yes, there is a separate section for NA 1 stuff it will be Noted with (NA1) in the post title. The reason I'm the only one making post on it is becuase my other contributors haven't added anything else. If someone wants to add something else I won't edit it besides grammar errors that I may notice. I may reply to the post in the form of a comment.

Is the current theme better/layout better
Edit: The only thing that was different was the color schema and the fact that I didn't put the post on the front page, I cut it off so the page wouldn't be cluttered.

Hopefully I won't regret it, but yep, I just bought an NA-1 account.

That looks much better. Now just unsticky the unnecessary 2 messages at the top and it'll be perfect.

I don't think they are unnecessary. They tell people what the blog is and how to tell what post are just by glancing a title. NA players won't care about things happening on EU and visa versa. Most people won't care about what fans have to say and vets won't care about the T&T posts. But no matter I'll leave them there unless they get bother some.
You are welcome to join the staff, which is currently seems to be just me and llewen, say what you will. I won't edit your post.

Quit digging up your own threads that are over a week old, it looks desperate.
