Hi Shark2th,
Congraulations, I have selected you as our News Administrator due to your activity on the site and many other reasons.. (thanks for the support mate)..
There is a one month trial period for this position which starts the day you get your admin login.. You must prove yourself worthy for this postition by continuously adding the latest news about the xbox console including games, hacked dashboards, bioses released and whatever else you can dig up.
After the trial period is up i will contact you to let you know how you go.. After looking at your previous news submission to HQ i do not think you will have a problem anyway..
I normally sign up to a newsletter or something on other sites too just to get the latest info sent out to me..
If you need a hand formatting your NEWS just give me a yell.. I will start a new topic explaining how to make the news look pretty and with working links that do not take our visitors away to another site.
talk soon mate.. Shoot me a email or a PM!
ALL OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES:
We have so many sections.. If you would like to become apart of the HQ team please leave a reply.. Sorry for my delay in this matter but it was my Bday the other day and forgot i made plans to go away for the day..
We need admins for:
- Weblinks
- Tutorials
- Xbox Hardware Reviews
- Xbox Game Review
- Xbox Cheats

Thank you Forahobby! I am honored and ready to serve. Can't wait for the team to grow some more!
Very exciting!
I believe I would find that tutorial helpful. I have successfully added a few pictures to my news stories before but always had the safety net of someone else making sure I didn't jack things up. Now I have to be right the first time.
I also wish to thank custom-xmodz for his support. It means a lot my friend. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Just before all this mess with the hacker hit, I had written to Forahobby the following regarding surgery that my wife had to undergo:
"I've been assessing my current situation which was forseen only about one week ago and it would appear that after work, my time will be limited for a bit. Wife is doing well but I will need to step up my "duties" to the household until all gets back to 100%. Since I have no definite time that this would occur, I think that I will resign as the news admin but remain active as time permits as a life time member. Believe me, this has been on my mind during the times that I am not thinking about my wife and I don't wish to let go, but I also recognize the needs of all the members. I can still submit news from time to time as I find it, but the site deserves someone that can fill the roll to its potential as I had started to be able to do. This is unfortunate since I carry a strange sense of pride in knowing that people all around the world read what I have found and posted. It's been very exciting and having the shark2th@xbox-hq.com email felt pretty good. But as the old saying goes, "the needs of the many, outweigh the needs of the few, or the one."
I thank you for the opportunity to be a part of the admin team for the site. I won't disappear, just fade a little for a while.
Thanks again for all you've done my friend.
Shark2th... end program"
I was a trial admin through the month of Feb but can't fulfill the duties at this point. My wifes situation has not improved although it's only been around a week since the surgery. I guess these things take time. But with March approaching, I wanted someone that can take the News Admin helm to step up. Just a quick sniff shows an awful lot of things that are going on. I want XBOX-HQ to be in the thick of it. Contact forahobby and let him know you are interested. It really is a blast. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th
