[Inspiration]

My total point is this: Everything notable is announced on this forum, with a plus. Here, you either get the information from the source, or the source has the chance to add their input. There is no middle man.

If Joe Manager quits on Playerworld X, he can come here, state his reasons why, and everyone can discuss them. You don't have some 15 year old "reporter" twisting his words, and adding their own point of view, due to a lack of knowledge about how journalism is supposed to work.

So now, instead of getting your information from a second party source, you're getting it directly from the person, and you're reading the views of many others who have insight into the situation. Instead of getting someone elses opinion, you can form your own using all the information at hand.

I do not see how this project is at all useful. At best, any news written there would have already been posted on these forums hours prior, unless Unixmad, Stefan, and Server managers plan on giving Bef tons of information before anyone else knows, which would be a questionable action.

This project would be helpful if Graal was a much larger community with a lot more happening on a daily basis. Currently however, I just see it as an unneeded way for people to gain "status" in the community.
