This is to saddle the article posted here:

The site is becoming increasingly hard to manage by myself, subsequently I’m soliciting for volunteers in Game Management/Reviewing from interested members. Preferably from someone who has been registered awhile and posted on the forums a bit. I don't want to give managerial access to a stranger that could just completely rearrange things
. I’ve set things up so that the scope of responsibilities should be fairly simple to follow. The workload would really depend on how many games you decide you can handle. I work a full time job and have been able to keep up with almost all of the games on this site in my spare time.
The way it works is that you would first volunteer to manage a specific game that you have experience in, as for beta games, have followed up on extensively. I would than activate your login as a manager for the game which would give you an “edit” button for the game in the game list and directory. This will give you complete control over the information displayed to the public for that specific game.
Notice that I have also mentioned the need for reviewers. The manager and reviewer will be both one in the same person. I’ve put together a “review checklist”, so to say, for the review that needs to be written. This way those of you who don’t excel in English grammar can still review a game that would provide useful information to site viewers. I added some notes after each section just to get an idea of what to write. The format would be written like so:
BURST FIRE REVIEW
This is onlly the review title
GRAPHICS
Engine-
what engine does it use?
GUI –
Are the interfaces intelligently designed? etc
Environmental Graphics - Is it realistic? Is it poorly designed? What is the overall feeling you get from it? etc
Weapons – Are they realistic? Futuristic or modern? Unique? Are there many to choose from? Etc
Character Customization – Do you choose from precanned characters? Can you customize hair color/style, eye color, facial parts, body size?
GAMEPLAY
The Concept- What is the overall game concept? Does it make sense? Are their empires, opposing races? How is it setup? Etc…
PvP – Well, what about it!?
PvE – Is there any? How does it play out?
Character Development – Does you character level up or do you get ranks? How can you make a name for yourself basically.
Clan Options – Are there options for clans/guilds/outfits etc. How do they work and are they easy to use.
Dwelling – What do you call home? Can you own and personalize a place to live. If clans/guilds are available, do they have guild centers?
Loot and Death – Can you loot dead enemies? When you die can you be looted? When you die is it easy to get right back into battle. etc
Massiveness – How many players at once can a server handle, what is the overall feeling in battle? Is it too crowded? Or not enough?
Persistence – How is the server setup? When you log off is the world still running? Or are only sections of the world? If there are base captures etc… do they stay captured when the battle is over? Etc..
TWITCH
Head/body Shots – Do bullet impact variables exist? Does shooting in the head give just as much damage as shooting the foot.
Character Movement – How does it feel, realistic or ninja-like? Smooth or griddy? Jumping, crouching, running, walking etc…
Targeting – Does the game utilize autoaim/autofollow techniques to save bandwidth? How does aiming feel in general? Does it feel realistic or not?
Firing – Are bursts controllable? Or do you click on a target to commence in fighting?
Reloading – is there any? How fast is it? How realistic?
Lag – When battles get big how is the lag? (Don’t forget to specify your connection)
Now, this is something I whipped up in a day, so if you ever find something that you think is missing, go ahead and let me know so we can change the format. This is basically how reviews should be written; bold letters followed by a short description of each section. It will be placed under “description” in the control panel I provide you once selected as a manager. This will replace the existing descriptions we have.
Since you would be selected as a game manager you would also be selected as the moderator in the forums for that specific section, posting news whenever you please about the game. If something came up that the entire community would be interested just let me know so we can get it up in the news section.
You can also update the screenshots, They will automatically resize to what I need them to be. Just don’t post screens with watermarks from other sites on them please ^ ^.
Once you believe you have a good grasp on the game and everything around the site, let me know. If you have been committed to the site I will give you an “@massivefps.com” email address and I’ll let you contact your games PR reps as a representative of us. I just ask that you be courteous, and use spell check when you write them. If I already have existing connections with the PR I will add your name to my email forwarding list so you can get the updated info.
If you have any questions feel free to ask them here. If you believe you have what it takes already just PM me and we’ll talk. Just to point out, this is for non-paid volunteers. The money I make from ads barely dents all of my hosting fees. I suppose your reward would be recognition and in cases, pre-released info on the game you manage.
Thanks for your time in reading this. If you read it all the way through without falling asleep you probably have already proven that you are committed to helping out.
