(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Since I'm the almighty Head of Media now for the community of NextGenUpdate, I've decided to create a thread that'll be specifically for suggestions, comments, etc. If you feel like NextGenUpdate has some aspects that need change in terms of media, that'll be listed below, don't be afraid to call out!

When I say suggestions, from things you guys think would be better for any section of the 'Media Team', including:

• Gaming Squad
  
• Reporters / News Team
  
• vBookie
  
• YouTube Team
  

However, with that all said, there are (of course) a few rules:

1. If you have a problem with any members that are involved with any team listed above, do not post it. If you in fact do have any 'beef' with one, send a PM to either me or an Administrator.
   
2. If you're going to comment on something, make sure it's constructive. No putting anybody down, this is to help both the features of NextGenUpdate and the community.
   
3. No flaming other members with ideas you disagree on. You can comment on how it wouldn't be a good idea in a respectful way, though. It's all about respect.
   

Now onto the specific teams and some potential discussions!

Gaming Squad -

Thanks, NGU. You guys are awesome![/font]

I suggest (If you haven't already) try getting an @Nextgenupdate email off outsider, it looks a lot more professional.
Once you get one of those you can probably try pming new game companies / indie titles for xbox and PS3 and PC and try get early access codes. Dyad is a sort-of example, but we were too late, the people 3 days before us got all the codes haha. Just an idea though, I don't think you should give paypal money away, giving people games encourages them to GAME lol

Thanks, Merk.

We're trying to get an e-mail, and it could get put into use for those kinda things, good thinking.

Bumping this for more activity and suggestions, keep 'em coming.
