Title: Who wants blogging privileges on the-elite.net?
Post by: Imperfect Clark on December 21, 2012, 06:30:41 pm

I'd like to see more front page-content about events news from what's happening on the boards.  Mainly records, of course, but even things like the Henning incident or Trent's train times would be interesting "news".  I can wire it up so that these cross-post to our page on Facebook (like it! http://www.facebook.com/pages/the-elitenet/ (http://www.facebook.com/pages/the-elitenet/)).

If people who are interested to post get endorsed by other members, I'll set them up with author privileges on the blog.

Feel free to nominate someone, too.

Clark, how much do you pay monthly for the server to host the-elite.net?

Jimbo's been doing a really good job. I'm not sure why he didn't cover the Henning incident in detail but usually the stats and all are great. Sometimes it seems a little long between updates but I really appreciate his work, perhaps someone to tag team with him for more frequent updates?

Shadown, I didn't cover the Henning situation in detail because I didn't agree with how things went down and I didn't want to bring negative attention to the elite on the very front page.

Derek and I spoke about this, but I've stuck to the strictly once-per-month updates of the front page to avoid over-spamming the main page. Derek encouraged me to update untied records as their own updates from now on, which is awesome because the more the merrier! I love digging up old stats on records, as can be seen by my (almost) daily updates on the elite's Facebook page :)

I think it'd be cool to have a strictly-PDer help blog the front page or contribute to the monthly update, since I mainly follow just GE and do just enough to get the PD details out there.

Larkin, I don't pay much.  Do we have any volunteers or nominations?

Who should I seek?
