Hey everyone, there will be no official issue this week. Most of the team is hunting for Halloween forms, participating in certain events, and i'm personally occupied with the new Legends ZA. We're using this week as sort of an official break and opportunity for me to openly recruit people. I've had this idea of creating a news media in PRO for a while, it's been on my mind for at least 2 years now, however there were other things I had my priorities focused on. I also needed a team I could rely on, and I couldn't achieve that for reasons in those 2 years. Currently, everyone on the team are all volunteers, yet they all have the option to be credited in any way they'd like, be it advertising an auction they're hosting or a simple mention in the credits section. All members of Rare Candy Media were asked personally by me to join the team, and all of them willingly joined. Additionally, I made sure everyone knows that their role is not mandatory. Helping with weekly articles only and if they are willing and have time to. All members can leave anytime they feel like. Here's some information for the team roles we have. Marketing and Advertising We have 3 members for this team at this moment. The main role of the marketing and advertising team is to advertise our weekly news articles and spread word of the articles to as many people as possible. The wider range of people, the better. Advertising includes mentioning it in chat, sharing the thread's link, talking about it, etc. Journalists We have 2 members that are journalists, or reporters. Journalists are responsible for gathering news and information, writing the news articles, manage interviews, scouting chats, weekly. Right now, this is the team I would like to heavily expand on, since their are multiple sub-roles within the main journalist role, mainly interviewers, and reporters (Information gatherers). Sub-editors We have 5 members who are sub-editors right now. Sub-editors help proofread article drafts, fact check, check grammar, and give constructive feedback to our artists and journalists. They ensure the articles have maintained quality each week and are the last line of defense for errors. Artists We have 1 member that's an artist at the moment. Artists help in creating concept art for the articles and help edit the article itself. This is the 2nd team I would like to expand on more. I understand that this role may require more time and effort to be put in compared to the rest, but it should be an opportunity for aspiring artists to share their work or just practice. Translators We have 6 translators on the team. 2 for Spanish, 1 for Portuguese, 1 for Hindi, 2 for French. They are tasked to translate each article weekly. That's pretty much it, simple but very appreciated, as the goal is to help Rare Candy Media reach a wide audience. Scrapped team roles Potential team roles (Roles that i've been thinking of adding) We try to release articles every Friday 11am-noon EST, however sometimes we run into slight issues and have to delay the release by a few hours. Our process usually consists of me scouting for information or drama (The juicier the better, let me in on the tea!), keeping an eye out on Discord and in-game chats, forum posts, announcements to report on. Then I share the information and the journalists write about it. I request some nice looking art from our artists, and have them edit the article, we send the drafts to our sub-editors to proofread. Finally we send this proofread version to our translators to be translated. Finalized articles are ready to be released by then. I create a forum post, post the article in it, and also archive the article on our Discord server. Finally, we have the marketing team share it. Yup, so if anyone's interested in joining the team, let me know on Discord or send me a PM here on the forums. I want this to grow and i'm excited for it, it's been my passion project in PRO (I also got other things i'm working on but let's keep that a secret for now). Also Wally if you're reading this, please announce any and all updates or news before or on Wednesday morning EST so we have time to write, research, and pump out an article by Friday 11am EST. Thank you! Link to our Discord server here: https://discord.gg/pTXc6ve8N6 Make sure to share your support. It means a lot to the team and myself! As always, thank you for reading guys, see you next week! -Raika
