When did I suggest a pay bump every 1000 words? I believe the only thing I've suggested is... exactly what Belgarat is proposing.

Speaking frankly, large articles are a pain in the ass.
1) I don't EVER feel like writing a 1,000+ word article just because it's necessary to get a decent payout. I don't want to feel like I'm writing an essay for a class.
2) I don't even read the huge articles that people pump out. Who the fuck has time/interest in reading 3,000 word articles?
Feel like the media aspect of the league would be more entertaining if people could post 200-500 word pieces and not feel the financial pressure that forces them to add fluff.
That being said, I understand that some articles (i.e. statistical analysis) sometimes necessitate huge word counts and that's fine. I just would rather write/read ~500 words about a fictional player's adventures on/off the ice than 3,000 words.
(Tbh just kinda ranting here)
