ThreeDawg or Immortal...
I'm sure both of you remember the News section that we had back on PA, which allowed us to make news updates for certain regions of the Fallout Universe that we made up. You know like, TWR, Safe Haven, Vault 35's messages, the BBC, DS1, etc, etc, etc.
I was wondering if it was possible if we could put that back up again, as I really liked doing that. I'm fairly certain the News and Updates section was not intended for this use, so I've come here to inquire about it.

That's actually really nice. The Irradiated Forks can have conflicted news reports from the Guards and Port radio stations.

It was pretty cool addition for anyone who wanted news on thread story progression without reading the whole thing, and adds more immersion to the threads for players or readers. I support the idea. : )

I support the idea. : ) The part in bold is the reason I'd like this, since whenever I have to go away and end up missing a lot in terms of thread progression it's annoying to read through it all (since when I do, the posting of other people continues and I never catch up to the story in time).

Voilà. I have taken your suggestions into account and have installed three seperate news services: 'Wasteland News Services', 'Intragalactic News' and 'Tamrielic Gazettes' under the Fallout, Halo and Elder Scrolls sections of the site. Everyone should be able to access, post and reply to threads.
Treat them with the same level of canon-correct respect you treat the rest of the site, and please refrain from overly damaging any canon locations or characters in your news posts : ) And I ask you try to use non-canon news providers (unlike GNR), or providers that are canon but have multiple authors (like the Black Horse Courier, or our self-created Wasteland Gazette). I also ask you post new threads per news source, unless they all relate to one specific thing and the replies are follow-up stories.
Also, keep it IC. It's in the IC boards for a reason.
Now go make Ron Burgundy proud, News Team.
