     Wow, where to begin? I played Wildstar during beta and at launch and loved it. However, many things happened in my life and I had to take a break for a while, mainly because I decided it was time to get my first book published on Amazon. Now, I find myself eager to come back, and have been stalking the forums and reddit feverishly over the past few days.
 
     At first, my intention was to find a solid group of adult raiders that raided on thursdays-saturdays in the evening EST. While that is still a goal of mine, I am saddened to see the current state of this game. I have been playing video games for 20 years now, (since pre-school!) and have played EQ, WoW, DaoC, you name it. I've been a "hardcore" raider and PvPer for many years across many games, achieving server-firsts and very high ranking PvP accolades.
 
     That being said, there is NO REASON at ALL why this game shouldn't be at least in the top 3 most popular MMOs. It has personality, incredible combat, great lore, a beautiful, big world capable of growing rapidly, and from what my research tells me, PvE and PvP groundworks that show so much potential. I don't work at a game company, and don't pretend to know how these things work, but there are some common issues that should be solved and seem like easy fixes. More raids, more balanced PvP, more incentive to PvP, and more elder game activities are a few.
 
     I, as a gamer, want this game to succeed SO BADLY. This game has SO much potential, SO many stories that need to be told, and that millions need to see and fall in love with. So I make this offer: I will offer my services as a writer to help you in whatever I can. I will write quests, design new zones, design new raids and develop intriguing characters for you, for nothing except the hope that this game will blossom and become what it deserves to become. In addition I leave this thread open to any creative people out there who want to help Carbine make this game all that it can be.
 
     Let's form a mob of creative awesome people and smack the devs upside the head! Let's stop dillydallying and launch this game into hyperspace!

			There's ONE REASON: most MMO players these days don't want challenge, don't want teamwork, don't want adventure, they want shiny rewrads and the best gear avilable right now, because they logged in.

First I want to say congrats on your book, and welcome back to WildStar!!
 
If you're serious about applying to Carbine, your best bet would be to keep an eye out on their job listing page found here: http://www.carbinestudios.com/en/jobs/
 
I'm definitely with you on this one. I really want this game to succeed, and I'm sure it will rise up once it's a little more polished and bug-free to some degree. (I know bugs and imbalance issues will keep arising, like any other MMO, but they've been on the ball at keeping us up-to-date on what's going on with the game's status and I'm confident the game will do well. 
 
What I would love to see right now is a machinima tool like WoWModelViewer, or addons that allow us to macro camera controls (no hacks or anything like that) so the creative community could come up with our own form of advertisement: Machinima. (and more - music videos, short clips, trailers, etc..)

			It's great to see people like you around, that try to help the game as much as they can.We as a community, as the players can make a big change for the game. We must not fall back into our spoiled little selves.Feel the passion (I bet) you once had for gaming, let it flow through you and punch some complaining non constructive feedback giving cupcakes in the face for being so weak like wet noodle.Yes, Carbine has alot to change. But the community can be a great help of bringing back the people aswell. I'm on the lowest populated server Luminai. And I'm having a blast. We try to organise server events as much as possible, hell we 5man scorchwing. And it's all worth it as I've not only made the progress I wanted, I've also made some amazing new friends as I must say, Luminai has an amazing friendly population.So thank you Zurraki for the effort and help youre offering, and congratulations with your book!

Hello! Glad to hear you're enjoying the game.
 
As Nifty mentions above, if you're serious about working as a writer then please do check out any vacancies at Carbine and apply as you see fit.
 
If you want to help contribute without the full time job, partner up with fansites or events teams, or write machinima or fan-fiction. We seriously love all this stuff and the more interaction between the community the better.
