INFORMATION
Have you, as a regular citizen, ever witnessed a jaw-dropping event or local scandal that you don't think gained as much publicity as it should've? Or perhaps you weren't in town for something, and nobody seems to have the details? Well, the News faction has you covered - dishing out reports constantly for the public. If you're interested in contributing to the news cycle in the city, you've come to the right place!
Ensure that you are in the Town discord upon applying, which can be found HERE.
RULES AND REQUIREMENTS
1) You must not project discriminatory or generally prejudiced views in your reports. This will result in your INSTANT removal
2) You must not show IC bias in your report if you like/dislike someone OOCly
3) You must not be excessively immature; think about your actions - your character is an adult
4) You must remain active as a reporter during your time applying. DM the faction lead regarding any inactivity during your time applying.
APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS
1) Follow the application format accordingly. Bold the questions and not the answers
2) Do not send DMs regarding or advertising your application; it will likely result in your denial

Can I GanRP as a Reporter?
Yes, you can! But there are appropriate rules in place for this:
1. If it is concluded that you only applied for the adult role, you will be demoted and blacklisted from the faction.
2. You cannot bring GangRP into your reports; any bias in a report will lead to a strike.
3. If your character is arrested, it will result in a strike. Getting arrested three times will result in demotion.
3a. The exception to this rule is if the arrest is for event purposes, which were approved by the faction lead.
How old does my character have to be?
The minimum age requirement is 25.
How do prompts work?
As a reporter, it is crucial to have an essential ability to write and create a narrative for the player base. In the prompt section, you must write two 'reports' so we can see how capable you are. What it's about doesn't matter as long as it's not copied from an actual report or other applicants.
Topics can vary from reports regarding Karakura or other matters you find more interesting.
