How exactly can someone's "wording" be clumsy? Are you trying to say I am horrible at the English language and in simpler terms "I suck at English"?

You simply cannot eloquently construct sentences.

Why would Mr. Bear or Unixmad hire someone who isn't good at spelling when they want the reporter thing to work out?
....its cause they did hire people who can spell well and make an interesting enough article to get picked.

I didn't fault spelling, though I certainly could, given that Mr Bear doesn't spell-check reports before he puts them online. What I faulted was a general ability to use English in an efficient and effective way. And as I already explained, Unixmad and Mr Bear aren't the best judges for something like this, and could realistically let someone through without them being skilled writers.
I actually posted a thread in the relevent hidden forum about this, detailing a superior way for the system to be organised. Mr Bear later deleted it in a mass misuse of his moderator powers. My personal opinion? I don't think that idiot should be put in charge of anything more important than opening a can of beans.
