If anyone deserved the correspondants job, its Plinka.
Plinka's posts on the politician and player cities on the TC forums are a must-read for everyone.

Congratulations Plinka...because you were one of those able to put the time and effort into Test Center, you certainly deserve the position. So you should know what I am going to say next has nothing to do with you or your work.
When was the call made for the Correspondent position? I would have applied for it, as would approximately 3 or 4 other people I know for certain, and possibly another six or seven people.
Granted, Plinka would have gotten the position (and likely deserved it), I still would have like to have put my hand in. The implication that no one wanted the job is my concern here. There are a lot of politician-wanna-bes waiting for this patch, and we have been working hard off Test Center to see things come out well when it hits live!
I realize that Plinka will not be the Correspondent forever, but next time you are going to fill a position, please let people know, even the ones who cannot get Test Center to work on our computers.
My purpose for tarnishing a well-deserved accolade? I want to continue to work from the outside on the attitude that is perceived by non-Test Center people that they are elitist. This is an incident that may come up in the future as an elitism issue.
Again, congrats Plinka, good luck in handling the wordy Politician crowd!

Congrats to Plinka however I think saying sorry just adds salt to the wound.
