The Process

Send a Telegram

To begin the journey of getting the role, please send a telegram to the Saints Daily management. You may roleplay that their telegram numbers would be available in the newspaper purchasable at a general store (usually they are included near the top of the edition).

Board Editor, Constance Wright: VB472

Information Required

The following information is required to be included in your telegram:

• The character’s full name (should be the same as the character select menu)
• The character’s telegram number
• Any previous knowledge relevant to the job
• Why your character wants to join the paper

If your character does not use the telegram system please reach out to the Support Bot to discuss an alternative that works for your character. Your character will be subject to an IC background check for lawfulness. Once your request is processed you will be directed via telegram for an in-character interview with the editor. If the interview goes well the editor will hire you as a reporter.

Freelancer Position

The Saint's Daily has a unique position for any law-abiding citizen of the Crossing, the Freelancer! Whether you already have a government position (SCSD, SCRC, SCDH, or SCTA), or you are a creative character wanting more outlets for writing, the Saint's Daily does offer compensation for articles. When applying to the paper, some would-be reporters become freelancers first to get a feel for expectations and workload and eventually become full-fledge Reporters. However, pretty much anyone can be a part-time or full-time Freelancer for the Saint's Daily. Apply as you would for the position of Reporter (stated above), but add that you are only interested to be a Freelancer; while access to Reporter Tools are restricted to official employees, articles can be submitted to the editors via telegram, and, if the article makes the publication, the Freelancer gets paid.

What does it mean to be lawful?

While this question may be vague, we always recommend using your best judgment!

Here are some things a lawful character would do: (These are suggestions/ideas and do not need to be followed directly):

• Work with the sheriffs and deputies
• Disapprove of crimes

• Avoid being around criminals if possible

Here are some things lawful characters wouldn’t do:

• Hide things or withhold info from sheriffs and deputies
• Commit crimes themselves
• Approve of crimes
• Willingly be around often (building relationships with) people who are known criminals
• Assist criminals be it information, supplies, etc.
