Dynamic Open Positions

Currently the Dynamic MUD staff needs to definately grow in a few areas. This listing will include any positions that definately need filling, as well as several that sometime over the next few months could potentially be filled, as well as other areas of expertise that would be good to have access to. If you would like to contribute and none of the jobs here fit you, you might consider applying anyways, impress me and i'll try and make use of you. I recommend checking out this to see the general guidelines and recommendations for applying.

High Priority:

Webmaster - We just got access to some decent free webhosting, which seems to mean its a good time to start developing the website. All applicants should have good understanding of PHP, MySql, CSS, html, and possibly other forms of webprograming and webpage design. I would expect the webmaster to be able to handle installation of other webscripts and modules and be capable of various design and graphics as well on occation. The webmaster will work with myself in integrating google adsense advertisements into the website and possibly writing web based utilities for game content creation or modification.

Non-story Content Developer - This position is basically going to be a documentation writer. Primary responsibilities include writing help files and tutorial guides for gameplay. Possibly also taking on the responsibility of moderating and organizing the socials (non gameplay related player actions like nod,wave etc) development and integration.

Content Editor - We will need an editor who is capable of proofreading for spelling, punctuation, and grammer. Someone in this position could possibly also take on further moderation or writing responsibilities if so desired beyond their base responsibilities.

Lower Priority:

Marketing - We will eventually need someone to handle advertisement and promotion of the game and website on other websites and forums to drive up our playerbase and readership. This position can also take on other responsibilities if the work required directly becomes low.

Art - We will need various sketch and graphic artists for various art projects related with publications, the website, etc. A portfolio of examples would be a good place to start with an application for this position.

Story Content Developer - Finally we will also be needing content editors to write up the various story and plot lines that will run behind the scenes. These content staff members will write up stories, and play various characters in the game to influence events. Interest in fantasy, sci-fi, and or history would be very helpful in this position.

We are currently not looking for coders, however sometime in the next year or two we might be looking for coders for side projects.

Please send all emails to jobs@dymuw.slayn.net, preferably putting Dynamic MUD and the position(s) of interest in the subject line.

Thanks all,
-Toraux
