Talented writer for quests and whatever!

Next, enough of the kiss-assing. We all know how you have acted in the past and it has been far from mature so dont act like your some big shot who only had their name taken. There is no job opening for a writer at the moment and how would that change when the game develops if its already developing now. So dont get your hopes up for a position, the best you can hope for is that they like this quest and decide to implement it in some way. And even if a position opens up i know many people on here who are more qualified, dedicated, and more deserving than you.
Now for the second quest. It ends too abruptly and leaves you questioning. You find out the professor created a device that is literally a walking poke-center and then it just ends? You cant leave it like that, and such a device would never be made into the game anyway, it would change it too much.

*Battle scene begins Member three is referred to as magma grunt in the battle. She has an urmel, and a charmelion.

Since when was Urmel a pokemon? Did you mean numel?
And its Lickitung, not licky tongue.

So, agreed.
The lemon has not been received well on IRC if I remember correctly. I think he was the one who posted a certain thread that almost caused a flame war.

If you are serious about this then there is no problem, but you will have to do better than that. You don't only need to have good writing skills, but also must be creative. So instead of trying to show us how good your Grammar is and all the rest, how about you do that with some creative stories.
Kalika_Had'ke was another person who applied to the Quest Writing job and he got it. Check a submission from him:

I agree with everything I've seen here. I over-estimated myself and thought I was the writer of a novel or something. I should make the NPCs talk more seriously about the game. Not only that, my second quest is generic. For the second quest, this is what probably went through my head: " DUR HUR, HOW ABOT I MAEK A QUEST WER U HAV TO HAVE A FIGHT WITH TEAM MAGMA AFTR U LIEK, WALK THROUGH A FOREST DAT DEY BURNED DOWN. LOLOLOLOL. IT WILL BE SOO GOOD, U CULD USE IT AS MANGA!!!!!".
Looking back, I may have made that one better. Also, I forgot that word choice and spelling is not the most important thing. I lacked creativity. Now I understand that anyone with a brain could do what I did, and that my writing is not quirky, or very creative. Overall it is meh at best.
I'm sorry for the kiss assery. I don't mean it. I apologize for what I've done wrong in these forums. I'm going to forget about a job for now, and just enjoy the game and community. But instead of instead of all out flaming, you could have just said the writing wasn't so good.
So sorry for being a fag. I think I got my point across.

Don't worry about it, just keep trying and it'll eventually get better!

I don't see where I was flaming. Also, just like Mr_Dark said, keep trying, eventually it will work out if you are serious enough.
