I'm terribly sorry I am not a funded individual, and lack the backing required to meet your demands that I pay people money for writing. I wasn't aware that money is the only benefit writing for a site has.

Not to be a bastard, but it seems every publication around at the moment is boasting about how they're not cor…

Urgh. Love it when the phrase "looking to hire" is almost immediately followed up with the phrase "unable to pay." By its very definition, the act of hiring someone involves the exchange of money for services.
Do you consider yourself a video game enthusiast? Do you like your opinions and want to share them? If so, this is the thread for you. Really!
VGDistrict.com, while not a new site, is looking to finally expand in size. We have been around for over…
