Damn wanna apply but there are far more qualified people so hey give the job to them. Just for info though what would the samples be, a review of an MMORPG or? And what would be included in a feature article.
since it does not list how much you get paid , I WOULD ASSUME YOU GET PAID $1 PER HOUR. who want to get paid that low ? huh ???
Does minimum wage not exist to you?
Minimum wage doesn't apply to freelance work, which is how this job is probably classified.
EDIT: Actually I just looked up Cyber Creations in my handy-dandy database I use to decide where to submit my work. It says the company has 1-4 employees, so yeah, I'll bet all the writers are freelance. However, the data seems to be from 2007, so it may have changed by now.

True nough but then again this is probably based on commision and not hourly pay.

If the only drawback is your typing, use a spellchecker program. You have plenty of time to edit your articles before you send them in.

Typing skills were essential for a writer back when we still used typewriters -- mainly because it was much harder to make corrections. These days, you have dozens of tools to help you overcome the mechanical aspect of getting your words down in tangible form.
One of my colleagues still writes on paper and hires a typist to get his work into computer files. He says the act of physically writing on paper makes him think before he writes. It works for him.
No one needs to know how you go from conception to finished product -- it's basically none of their business. The only thing that matters is the finished work.
If typing is your only concern, I wouldn't let that hold you back. Find a way to work around the issue.

Can I have a job writing a review of Mortal Online? Many of their fans think I work for you guys, why not just make it official?

I can't read. I can't write. I can't talk. Hey, hold a sec. I CAN talk!
Let's settle this. I can't read, I can't write but I can talk. Can I have the job now?
A good programmer is the person who creates thousands of bugs while fixing hundreds!
