Summer Recruitment

In interest of furthering our ever-expanding portfolio we are recruiting more timers and typesetters.

No experience is necessary for either of these positions, however prospective recruits should note that timers need to be able to cope with repetitive work and typesetters should have some sense of flair and competence in the visual department.

Application deadline is 6/15 12:00AM EST. Letters of acceptance will be sent out then.

Recruitment is over. If you didn’t receive an email you were rejected.

Recruiting Translators

To apply, email

You should be of an agreeable disposition, available regularly, and able to turn Japanese into English.

You can choose what shows you want to translate, but oftentimes you’ll just be asked to fill in on shows that need translating but don’t yet have translations.

Internship Recruitment

I don’t think any (non-automated) group in fansubbing history has attempted the number of shows we’re doing this season (or maybe even last season, who knows).

Thus -

Commie Internships

The passing rate on our entrance tests is something like 15%. This is somewhat of a problem.

The percent of recruited staff who are continually useful for more than one season is something like 20%. This is even bigger of a problem.

I’ve narrowed the causes of deficient staff down to either:

A: These people realize that there are more worthwhile things to do in life than fansubbing.
These people cannot be saved.

B: IRC life is impossible for these people to maintain.
These people cannot be saved either.

Solution?

Introducing: Commie Internships

Possessed with an indescribable zeal to slap subs on some chinese japanese cartoons but have no/inadequate skills to do such a thing? No problem. We’ve got you covered. Just sign up today. Only $9.99 a month.

Requirements:
-Zealotry/fanboyism/deityworship of fansubbing
-Be on the computer for more hours of the day than off of

Leave a comment below with contact information if you’re interested. (Space is limited)

From Commie leader RHExcelion


Nyaatorrents might have close to a million servers no wait who am I kidding they have one. They also have something like 13,000 staff no, nope, more like 20. We have one (and a half?) servers and 30ish staff.
BUT THAT ISN’T THE POINT(1)

Commie is the #5 hell if I know site on the web and serves a hundred thousand this I do know! people every month plus a bunch of niggers who never visit the site/stream/insert other atrocities here – with an average of 1.75 pageviews per person
BUT THAT ISN’T THE POINT HERE EITHER(2)

Commerce is fine evil. Advertising is not evil no, wait, actually I’m pretty sure it is.
But it doesn’t belong here. Nobody clicked on them when they were up for like a month.
Not in Commie. Also I’m not filing no tax reports.
Commie is something special (we’re all autistic). It is like a library filled with stolen books or a public park parking lot. It is a place we can all go to think about chinese cartoons, to learn about chinese cartoons, to share our knowledge about chinese cartoons with other people who care about chinese cartoons.
When I founded Commie I didn’t, but imagine if I did, I could would liked to have made it into a for-profit company with advertising banners, but I decided to do something different mainly because aforesaid is seriously Not Possible- trust me if there was some way to make a living subbing chinese cartoons I would have dropped out of school a long time ago. We’ve worked hard over the years to keep it lean and tight. This sounds overly gay. We fulfill our mission, and leave lay waste to others.

Now if everyone reading this donated $20, we would only have to fundraise for one day a year be rolling around in so much cash. But not everyone can or will donate. Seriously, rolling in cash. And that’s fine.No, it really is. Each year enough people decide to give us a lot of headaches

This year, please consider making a donation of $5, $25, $625, or whatever you can another power of 5 preferably higher than 4 to protect feed and sustain clothe Commie.

Thanks,
RHExcelion
Commie Leader

I forget what the point was, but I think it had something to do with sarcasm.
