Anyway, check it out.

Some general rules of game blogging are as follows:

1. Be Consistent - you’ll need to find a style of writing/posting that fits you. This is difficult for some because, its hard to get a handle on what precisely a writing style is. What grammar quirks, spelling, and slang works for you, while still conveying your thoughts and ideas you wish to express.
2. Be Regular - Don’t make the mistake i did; make a point of posting SOMETHING on a regular basis. Quality will come with practice and patience, but the key factor of most blogs of any type is the fact they update regularly. Once a day, once a week, twice a week, and so on. Pick a regular post schedule that fits you and your real schedule. Allow a little bit of time for research and critique.
3. Be Respectful - In this time of a shaky concepts of intellectual property and copyrights,  its best to cite your sources and make proper use of the quote options that are available to most blog apps. A little bit of formatting goes a long way to being in good relations to other sites. Personal blogs don’t know or care about such things, but that’s why it’s a PERSONAL blog, if you want to be a specialty blog, try to be professional about your presentation.
4. Be Patient - Writing is fairly trying on ones sanity when you have to hunt through lots of text to make sure it all adds up. A good way to deal with the issue of misquotes, artistic fubars, and general hack writing is to have an editor, or at least a friend who’s better at grammar than you to look through it. Proofreading, critiques, spell checking and formatting are all cross’s that bloggers must bear. You are not the only one, so don’t be angry if someone comments on a mistake you made.
5. Be Nice - You don’t have to enjoy the pressence of idiots in your community, use the ban-hammer if needs be, but also be nice to your more mature and respectfull members. Respond to there comments, have respectfull and meaningful conversations. If you’re running a specialty blog, then keeping your community happy is a primary goal of your site. You never know when a fan of yours can be a source of information and/or inspiration.
6. Be Knowledgable - When you can have most of the world’s collective knowledge just a google search away, there should be no excuse for biased ignorance. Writing a rant is one thing, but if you are a specialty blog, you are obligated to research your topics. This is especially true when you have two sides to an arguement. It may seem strange to get the “devils advocate” point of view, but your post will be the better for it.
7. Be Skilled - There is no excuse, NONE, for not knowing the tools of the trade. A blogger specialist should take the time to get to know his or her system software. You don’t need to be an expert, but you must be able to compentently navigate and use the software that runs your blog. Keep a link to the help files either saved or bookmarked for easy access. Take the time to check through the updates and tips that the creators give. If you are comfortable in the writing environment, then you work faster and more effeciently.
8. Be Honest - This pertains primarily to the tags and SOE “bombing” of articles, posts and what have you that in the make your post to be something its not. As a gaming blog, YourGamer.Net concentrates on tags and catagories that encompass gaming. You will not find photoshop tutorials, porn, or warez download links in this blog, and my SEO practices reflect that. I suggest that all bloggers to the same.
9. Be Creative - You don’t have to be completely different each post, sticking with a format you know and are comfortable with is nothing to be ashamed of, most readers expect things as such. You shouldn’t, however be afraid to throw the occasional curve ball. Keeping your readers and subscribers on there toes is good, but don’t do it to much. Being to far off the beaten path will change the focus of the posts entirely, and is ultimately confusing.
10. Be Detirmined - Just because you get a low spot in your reader or subscribership is no cause for alarm. Keep moving forward and you’ll get somewhere. Don’t be afraid to use the larger news and service sites that are huge and plentiful. Twitter, Digg, Flickr, link exchanges, all good tools to get your blog out there. It may seam cheap, but sometimes its the best way.

Welp, thats that from my brain. I know it may seem hypocritical, this list when compared to my many other posts, but this is what i’ve learned from running this site.

Have fun!!

this is roflcopter * lolernade + awesome!!

This by no means makes it perfect, but the designers and programmers have done there best to have the “forever beta” feel. An ongoing idea that the game is always willing to shift, change and improve. they are very freindly to both paying customers and free customers in a way that is similar to puzzle pirates. They allow an interchangable form of currency that doesn’t neccessarily favor the free or paying members.

The game needs alot of work but the game elements are almost entirely suggested by the players, making the gameplay it self (rather than the software) sort-of open source. i gotta say, so long as they stay freindly with the players and keep there paying customers happy, they are in for a long and healthy life.

well it isn’t when everyone else is trying to also get the acheivements. I got the Sandvich and Natasha so far, need the K.G.B’s . hopefully i’ll get it here soon.

Another thing, Star Trek online and Diablo 3 fanbois seam to be setting an example of what out the fan base is devolving to. A bunch of panicky geeks that are constantly in a stage of nerd rage. You don’t know how annoying it is to see people whining about A)a game they know little about,B)how they make a big deal over stupid shit and C)its not there property to begin with.

here where it is, they make the games, you don’t: unless you can make the games, then you have no right to say how its made.

IT’S A FUCKING BLOG!

its official. No more not posting something because i don’t think it’s news worthy or intelligent reading. Its a fucking blog. the other posters can now Post what ever they feel like so long as its remotely game related. it can be short, long, involved, freeform, focus and/or completely random.

I just got fucking tired of not posting shit because i wanted this to be a professional blog and the post count suffered. I’ve had alot of game related museings that would have made a great blog post, but not an article.

I will no longer stop or encourage anything but to write what ever the fuck i want.

The message I received said:

We are proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto IV will be arriving for the platform it was birthed on this November. Grand Theft Auto IV for the PC will feature everything from the acclaimed original console releases, along with newly expanded multiplayer just for the PC and more.

Grand Theft Auto IV for the PC debuts on November 18th in North America and on November 21st in Europe. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more details.

Better late than never if you ask me. While my buddies have been playing the game for quite some time, I’ve been holding out. Oh, I’m only human, I’ve driven around and massacred quite a bit, but I’ve saved myself from playing the missions or watching all the little extras so that I can enjoy the release on the PC.

You can expect a full review from me shortly after release!
