Volunteer
We could always use another helping hand on our team! GuildWars2Live is first little big step to even larger projects in the future. If you are passionate about gaming, love nurturing online communities, and aspire to turn play into work and work into play, then we want you!
There are many seats to be filled here! While our main focus is providing live video streaming free for fellow Guild Wars fans to enjoy, we also want to generate a continuously evolving home for viewers to read and discuss matters of the game that interest them with each coming season. Join our team not only to share your love for the game, or promote our website, but to achieve your personal goals and build upon existing strengths.
Check out the many positions we're looking for. These positions are not set in stone nor do you have to meet all the requirements listed. If you have a fun idea you'd like to share with our team, we would be happy to support you and make it happen! To apply, write an e-mail to apply@guildwars2live.com. We won't bite!
Non-profit note: We're creative fans delivering content free to other fans of Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2. We include ads on our website to support our projects and contests to attract a greater community. Yup, we've got nothing to hide! As an organization/club we're in a lot of debt - but the fun we have is worth our pocket money. Hopefully we can change that around though. Then in turn, the better we do, the more we can give back to the community and ultimately increase the fun to be had here for everyone!
