I have a lot of spare time on my computer, a great command of the english language, and good at translating from most European Languages. I am prepared to check up facts and also edit promptly all the entries I am sent. I also have an excellent skill in online web-editing if that would be of any use.
Thank you,
AeronLaffere

Hi there, Aeron!
Welcome to h2g2. It's usually a good idea for people to spend some time becoming familiar with how the site works before jumping into volunteer positions. Sub-editors, in particular, really need to understand how Peer Review works, what the Writing-Guidelines are, and what we're expecting of the Edited Guide in general.
It looks like you've submitted an entry to Peer Review, and that's great! However, it would probably help if you spend some time reading over the Writing-Guidelines and also looking through some of our current Edited Guide entries on topics you're interested in, since what you've submitted doesn't seem to be quite ready for Peer Review.
Here are some examples that are all related to online gaming:
A1132129 -- Free Massively Multiplayer Online Games
A3765738 -- Online Gaming
A592535 -- An Introduction to Roleplaying in Online Gaming
A588215 -- EverQuest - the Online Role Playing Game
I'm a Lineage player myself.
Mikey
