If your only doing a few hours a week it will be above the minimum wage.

It's an internship. Quite clearly says that above.

 

[Kamwah]

Quite tempted but my article writing is really bad.

 

[Reaper 392]

sounds like a fantastic offer for some of the guys and girls on this forum. i just wish i was one of those people. (to be honest, you couldnt pic a worse job for me than journalist)

Doesn't mean you can't give it a try

 

[Rik1254]

Id love to try something like this, will enter tomorrow

 

[valkynaz]

I would absolutely love something like this as a bit of work on the side!

The only issue is the timings of the event. Say I entered this competition and won (albeit how small of a possibility that is), conflicts are bound to happen with college exams which are taken around May/June.

 

[MikeHunt79]

Sounds good but the only game I watch is Starcraft 2

I'll give it a go anyway, sound like fun

 

[IRLeetly]

Will give it a try, can't hurt not to, oh wait it does,I'm still in crutches with 2 pins in my foot

Mentoring from the most unprofessional man on the planet? Laughable really. Is he going to be mentoring on how to lure people in with angry snide comments followed by how to use the ban button because he's the only one allowed to be abusive on cadred?

This is a man who banned everyone on their website who had been obtained a ban that year, then made everyone request to be unbanned again...when he decided he didn't like one he'd give that person a torrent of abuse and delete any and all comments made in defense. Such a mature and professional establishment cadred are........

Don't waste your time.

EDIT: no doubt the next time I read cadred I'll be banned for airing my opinion.

lol ban incoming gonzo sees all!

lol ban incoming gonzo sees all!

Lets be honest though, apart from the odd interesting CS:GO article recently, the articles aren't all that interesting so it won't be a great loss just my opinion though.

If he had a shred of professionalism in him though he would read my comment, think about it and consider how he can act in a more professional manner in the future rather than simply banning or abusing me, because I'm certainly not the only person with these views. May gain some respect back that way even if he does claim that he doesn't care what people think about him, as I don't know a single person with a nice word to say about him currently.
