Umm, there is a reason these e-mail's are sent to GAP members only. Because they only want GAP members to participate. I promise you they won't accept anyone here who isn't on PSU's Gamer Advisory Panel.

They want your photo so they can pre-screen ugly people right out. Nice.

And this is my first first. BFD.

Requesting a digital photo?

I guess they don't realize that this is ILLEGAL according to US labor laws.

****ing idiots!

No, it's illegal if they don't hire you because you're ugly. But if they give you a chance (ie. sending in your app), they have every right to deny you if they want.

Have you ever been to the mall? Stores don't like hiring ugly people.

So do they want you to bring your psp and show it off to a bunch of people who thinks "it be cool to cap a brotha?"

No thanks, I'll pass.
