Question Graal E-Mail Newsletter...

I am bored...my mind is numb from lack of sleep...and I just plain have nothing better to do at this time

Anyway, I was thinking maybe someone could do a Graal E-Mail newsletter thing like Nintendo does? Really, this idea came to me a couple days ago but still The only thing that would be different is that it could be every week or every 2 weeks since a lot happens.

I talked to Zulithe about it and he said that GraalNet was going to or already had done something like that, but I am not sure >.<

Oh well, thanks for reading my idea

We had toyed with the idea, actually toyed with MANY ideas. But when GN shut down all that faded away. Vergil

I've wanted to work for another Graal News site for a while now but they are all substandard, so I sit vigilant

You stated that my attitude was crap because you want the newsletter, whereas I don't.

No, I was refering to your general attitude...it's 100% crap. You act as though you have a chip on your shoulder or something...

I guess the general impression I am recieving is that it's a good idea (how is that not obvious). Even though so few have commented on my idea yet.

I am not saying I will do anything, I am just throwing out an idea to see what results I get. If I actually do decide to try it out, I will need lots of help...I have a real life and so I am not always on

Hmm... Nah.
I prefer just checking the site for updates since that's usually faster then Hotmail anyway. ;P

Although I do agree that it might be useful if you have a POP3 E-Mail address. I'd quite like it if it was something like getting it send to your ICQ or whatever.

Yes, I know that I was only commenting on Toran's attitude in general since he always seems to be negative or appears to have something stuck in his ass

Good idea. And possibly people can submit articles to add to the newsletter too

Yes, that is the general idea, but I think I would have a limit of 10 per newsletter and they are chosen on a first come, first serve basis, since a lot of stuff would be incredibly irrelevant.

You should have different sections though. Maybe one of them would be designed specifically for role-playing and get two or three of those. Then get input from some staff, some general players and maybe Stefan (if he is not super busy) or even Unixmad (hey, anything is possible)

I think you need to just leave me alone Go find something better to do and let me have my fun. I already have a job btw.

I don't follow the social mindset that says I can't do what I want to do and that I am not allowed to have fun. Also, I think you ought to stop evading your ban

I have a job too (thankfully)...I get paid about 7.02/hr and work about 17-33hrs each week. There aren't very many other jobs to find at this point, so I am happy I have one.
