It's a volunteer position but you're asking kinda much for this spot

[[No0]_Zinda_]

this is cool, best of luck to the new casters.

Asks for professional standards, with professional stream quality, but then only offers a volunteer position.

Damn, TDM is pretty professional.

If you could read it says "currently" volunteer... just sucks for me cause I live in Canada.. literally 2 miles from the US border so I can't apply

Swindle take it

Maybe they are just trying to pay Zyori since he's the only one who qualifies right out of the gate.

Off topic but I thought the most played hero changing as you hovered over different names was really cool.

I don't quite understand why you're all saying "Omg so much work, position is insulting". They're looking for someone with a passion for HoN/esports who wants to do something that they enjoy. Do you require professionalism when you're trying to get your brand our there? Of course you do. The only thing is that there aren't many people in the HoN community willing to do anything to try and grow the game on their own with just working on it for the sake of growing the game, without feeling entitled to getting a large sum of money.

What I do suggest for tdm though is to not have two people do EVERYTHING for both HoN and Dota 2, you'd need separate groups of people (even though there's nothing going on in HoN right now)

Shame.

Because people should be making a stand against this kind of garbage but since everyone in the "ESPORTS SCENE" is like 18 apparently, they are too naive or dumb to care I guess.

I'm miffed at why people would want casters on the HoN end of the spectrum. HoNcast gets what? 2-3000 viewers nowadays and the alternatives get 2-300. Is it really worth spending all of that effort in such a small footprint? You know you wont be allowed to cast any of the major(ha ha) events because HoNcast has a nice little monopoly on those. So you'll solely rely on basically the scenes meager leftovers, that doesn't sound very appealing to me.

that is the point of this thing.
look what caster gets:
1)e-peen
2)???
3)no profit

and tdm?
1)free promotion
2)more content for website, which leads to
3)more hits on website

and all of that for no effort whatsoever.

good deal rotfl

The requirements are kinda retarded for a voluntary position with no indication at all of a more concrete offer.

[[Poni]kippetje]

I'm going to have to mostly agree with Rean here.

Trademark seems to want a lot from a volunteer, which is highly unrealistic but what bothers me more is that their site isn't even (fully?) operational yet. And I can remember the site looking more or less the same for over half a year now. That sparks the question of what happpened to Lisa "Kierk" Thai? (she developed the site afaik)

TDM should get their own stuff set up before 'demanding' so much from volunteers in my opinion.

[xanderK]

Cleaned up loads of off-topic and generally terrible posting.

tDM is trying to grow their organization. Let's all be respectful about this and instead of bashing an organization that has supported HoN, we support them back by either showing interest in such a position or not flooding threads with spam.
