SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So, I'm On The Shortlist

I'm already in the newspaper industry. Good luck to you. When you do get in, you will either love it or hate it. There is no in between.

I may be getting into it myself.

I wrote an angry letter to the editor about a recent restaurant review, and in the ensuing exchange wound up getting an offer for a monthly column.

We'll see how the negotiations go.

:D  No worries. Hopefully someone'll hire me someday soon. You can only eat beans for so long.

Good luck, sir. Glad to hear that the hobby can be useful in other ways. When do you find out?

So I finally got an email back from the editor.  Loosk like he's still interested, and I've somehow managed to volunteer myself into doing some kind of profile on a local chef.
