Title: Interviewer Applications
Post by: Goober5000 on September 18, 2008, 09:21:42 pm
Well, now that we have this nice new (old) forum, we may as well use it. :)  Since the Interviews project was last active around five (!) years ago, many of the newer HLP members were never aware that we had such a project.  I figured the time was right to see if anybody would be interested in reviving it, just like people have revived the Star Wars Conversion (now Fate of the Galaxy), The 158th Squadron, and The Apocalypse Project.

So, do we have any responsible forum members who could conduct some interviews?  Post your credentials here.

Question. Whats the basic requirements?

Well, you need to be willing to talk to people, and you need to know how to ask insightful questions.  It's also helpful to do some research on the person before actually sitting down to interview him -- this way, the interview can have some more interesting details instead of just basic biographical information.

I think you've demonstrated that you have all of those requirements. :)

I would like to reiterate that the Interview forum is still looking for interviewers; if you have a period of free time on your hands and wish to participate, do PM me.

I actually want to help. I haven't posted any additional interviews but I really wished to. I would have liked to interview TopAce about the Wiki, brand/chief about Fate of the Galaxy and Darius/General Battuta about Blue Planet. I didn't really have a chance to get those interviews started so I had to forget about them. I did not manage to interview several members of the ED Team, either.

On an unrelated note, how did Mobius post here? I thought he was monkeyed? :wtf:

Just GB will do :) I'm sure he'll make the more entertaining interviewee out of the two of us.

Though there's a half-done interview of me that Stormkeeper did a while ago floating around waiting to be finished.

Do you want Stormkeeper's interview to have precedence? If there's one around it'd be better to go for it...

We're both on IRC now.

S'far as I can see, Mobius did a sterling interview. Added to the fact that my national service is taking up a lot of my time, I think I wouldn't mind having you aboard as another interviewer.

How many interviewers are there?

As long as you don't want me to moderate this board, consider me in. :)

Did someone edit his post?

Are you refering to me?

No, those are my words. Why are you asking...?

People accused you of moderating something you're not obliged to before, so I thought... Don't worry :).

Question: How is Mobius able to post while being monkeyed? I didn't know any topic that I could ask that with it being on topic.

Highly limited rights to post.

Including Mob and me, 2. I'm more or less adjusted to my army schedule, so I should be able to get back to work.

That's very good to hear because I'm really busy with NTV, INF and the FSCRP now. Neverheless, I think I have enough time to interview to brand and/or chief about Fate of the Galaxy. :)

We're still looking for interviewers. You get a free cookie if you sign up today!

Plus, are we allowed to have a badge? Also can I revamp the existing interview website? Because that thing is old.

If things go as planned, I'll post 2 interviews in the next few days. The third one (about FotG) will be done when/if Chief is available.

I don't see why not. Put a badge together and present it to admins in hosted support board (just added access to interviews group). You can do what you like with the interviews website.
