Nero Kunivas 3,046 Posted October 25, 2015 Hmm... I wish to throw my hat into the ring once more for the News Team. I can write really well, I am far more willing and able to communicate and contribute than I ever was, I'm online all day, every day and my interest in the Kingdom Hearts series is through the roof! ^^ I can promise you this: I will not fail you again. Cross my heart and hope to die. And you can hold me to that. 2 Alicia Maddox and Rin reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) The bad thing for me here is that I only come online for a set time, and there are times(rarely)when I'm offline, so I'm not active enough to be a part of the News Team. While I'd really love to contribute, I just feel that I wouldn't be able to contribute well, with what me only having limited time here. Excluding the X and Japanese language skills,(of which I have none, lol.) I have all the requirements for being a member of the News Team! But alas, I am not able. It's funny, I remember a time when a lot of people recommended me to become a member of the site staff, but I didn't go for it for the same exact reasons. x3 Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention, good luck to all the people applying to be a part of the News Team! I hope that your dedication to the series can bring us awesome news to us, the dedicated fans of the series! KINGDOM HEARTS 4 LIFE!

Veemon 1,540 Posted October 25, 2015 I would like to attempt to apply once again. I knew I didn't cut out for the job before, but now I believe I can do something. Here's what I've got: I believe I would make a good, if not great, addition to the NEWS team for a few reasons. Like any Kingdom Hearts fan I love the series. In fact, so much of a fan, I made up my own keyblades for the fun of it! Now enough of minor bragging, I also believe I would be a good addition because I am very active, so whatever sites, blogs, whatever you want me to keep up-to-date news on, I'd be capable of doing that, especially when I am looking for stuff to do, I can look for news for the team. Also, I have been wanting to volunteer on the site ever since I first heard one of the teams looking for new people to hire on their team. I will admit, I am kind of the Justice-Voluntary-Freak kind of guy, but that could be useful for the News Team as well! And finally, regarding my writing skills, I am very good at it! (Of course, most real-life stuff require that skill anyways ) Also, I keep up with Kingdom Hearts x [chi], though I have been slowing down in Unchained X, but I hope that isn't too much of a problem. I guess translating doesn't count as Japanese Language Skills, does it? And I dunno if this applies to the News Team in any way, but I also have a Google+ Account too. Just wanted to leave that out there. Also, I have a question. I'm new to finding news on my own, since I might end up finding info already found by someone else on the team. If I did get to join the team, would you show me some sites I should keep an eye on? If I am taught the right sites and news finding, I will get better and will be able to find stuff on my own. As usual, leave me a PM and I can answer any questions you might still want answered about me. Rock on! 1 Rin reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sometimes forget that. xPI didn't see anything that was optional or required that wanted me to have Facebook or Twitter account, so hopefully that won't be necessary. But I have a Google+ account.

Captain Swagblader 280 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) I can't report news like lightning quickly, but I can report them as soon as I encounter them. I also have a limited amount of time ( I go to school ), but I'm ready to use it for reporting. I have a great passion for Kingdom Hearts ( I literally have signs of it everywhere, in my Youtube channel, in my room, in my conversations ). I guess you could say Kingdom Hearts 4 LIFE! .If you'll take me, I won't disappoint . I could've said more, but if you want to hear more of what I can do if I became a news team member, PM me.

Muke 32 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) Aww, I would love to join the News Team! *looks at amount of posts* - Is there a specific amount to reach? You see, I am not very active. But I can certainly be active, if I want to! (Which I seriously would~) [EDIT: I am very active in another KH Forum - I reached 383 posts there! (I don't know if I should mention it, though. )] So, more about me. I joined the KH-Fandom with 8 years - KH II was my first game of the series. I played through it, and immediately fell in love with this awesome series. And that is, why I am looking for news day and night - heck, I am so in love with the series, I even use it as inspiration for a fantasy-essay in school! Plus, I am analyzing every single Trailer by myself. Just a few reasons... ^^ Oh, and as for the writing example... My essay is in school. I can supply it Wednesday, if you want.

Kello 310 Posted October 25, 2015 Let's try this. I am pretty active; I come here daily. What comes to my writing skills, I like to think that I am pretty good. I come from Finland and the effort our educational system puts on English is rather amazing. I am (and will be - for the foreseeable future) a huge fan of Kingdom Hearts. I think that's something that sets me apart from everyone else, am I right? I like to find new information about KH3, KHUχ and the series in general. I'm not good at Japanese but I usually do my own initial translation to know what the news items are all about. I play Unchained Chi daily, and I can say I'm REALLY good at it. I started helping people from KHInsider with the game (under the name Juhla) and if there's anything new with the game, I would be happy to talk about it. I do not have any essays digitally but it's possible for me to rewrite my top-scoring essay I did for my preliminary examination. As I said before, I live in Finland. So when USA is sleeping, I'm here to write something Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Veemon 1,540 Posted October 25, 2015 Oh yeah, and going off from my application from yesterday, I can take a photo of this writing material I did a while back. It's not a newspaper article, nor an essay from school. It's just some info and small amount of research I did a while back. Rock on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VentusKHBR 1 Posted October 25, 2015 Hi! My name is Diogo, but please call me Ven. (kidding ) I'm already a member of Kingdom Hearts Brasil facebook page, which is the biggest KH brazilian fanpage, and I always bring news to it. I have reasonable writing skills. English is no problem for me. And I play KHUx. Hope you choose me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
