Regular readers of Destructoid should, by now, be very familiar with the name Joe Burling. Also known as user BuckF1tches, Joe has been invaluable as of late, providing us with news tips constantly and daily. What we get to post on the frontpage is but a sliver of the amount of work Joe does for us and we love him for it. However, Joe Burling is not a man to selfishly hoard his tipping secrets like so much nazi gold, and after months of people begging for him to reveal just how he's able to submit so much news to the Dtoid tips hotline, Joe has produced this exclusive interview for all wannabe news hounds out there.
Want to know how to find the time to help the Destructoid cause? Want to know which sites to keep an eye on for news? Want to know why Joe is so sexy? Finally, the answers are yours for the taking. Get a pen and paper ready, because this is your catch-all guide to becoming a true icon.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

...And its stuck in my head for the rest of the day..
You bastard.
Good points made there, must watch for all new d'toid readers.
It's also amazing how many of them seem to write for the site as well. It's like a home away from home, Destructoid is.
And yes Pangloss, Chocolate Rain would have been a welcome change.
It's a pity Buck didn't mention that he steps away from the mic to breathe.
Seriously WHY???
You said the keyword there, cornerstone of 80's pop.
BuckF1tches I salute you!
Yes, yes that was Lemon.
Word has it that he lieks mudkips.
Awesome man.
Understood. I'm so backwards.
This post is made of win.
-fuck off with the Rickroll'd
-fuck off with the l3375p34k (this definitely includes "pwned" AND pronouncing it with a "P" over Xbox Live
-fuck off with the GAF5p34k (this includes "amirite?", "epic fail", "oh noes", etc.
-fuck off with the Killzone vs Halo debate. Killzone would have to have gameplay to qualify as a game.
That is all for now, carry on. (fuck off with the "carry on", like you're some kind of internet police!)
Rick Rolled by the man himself!
*i am not worthy*
Anyway, thanks Buck! Made my morning. :)
Can we expect a plushjoe soon!
:O
Also the new Rick Roll for those who haven't heard about it yet:
