I don\'t see anything original with this one, so good luck.

Well, Moogie, when Adyna came to [some other game] there were alot of
\"discussions\" about the gazette too, but it ended with these discussions
and one page that haven\'t been updated since ages, but Adyna instead
of bla bla organized the team and were running the gazettel like half a
year. Believe me - with her motivation she can move mountains on
Ojaveda and drop them into the hole. :-) All what she needs is your
support, feedback etc. Tech stuff like the mailing list leave to me.
About medieval times - there were no PMs, Advisors, moderators
tefusangs, Laanx temple in the center of the city - because if you were no
catholic you were a dead man etc. in medieval times. And, what is most
important here - in medieval times access to books were only for the
chosen people, therefore there were no libraries accessible for every
mortal...but to Jayose\'s library everyone of us can enter, walk there, grab a
book, and everyone in Yliakum can read, I am a woman and I am wearing
pants - you have to admit, friends, that was not possible in medieval ages.

Regards.

\"she can move mountains on Ojaveda and drop them into the hole\" hehehe I like that!

For those people who wanted an easy way of contributing to The PS Times \"Your wish is my command\"  got to http://beam.to/include_ps

Mmm, we could maybe setup a forum section and enable HTML there?
I mean our guild forum.

Regards.

I\'m delighted by how much the mods encourage innovations around here.  Perhaps things would move forward better if people didn\'t immediately start shouting \"that\'s a dumb idea I\'ve already seen!\"

So I\'ll put aside my \"been there, done that\" attitude and go check out what my fellow players are doing.  Thanks Adyna!

I wonder... Since when was it decided that you make the rules about what can be in a comment and what can\'t? If I remember correctly, stating that the idea is old, and has never succeded before, followed by facts of why is not a bad reply. It\'s constructive critisism, telling the person who picks up the idea to maybe give it a little thought, and do something which makes the idea diffrent from when the other people tried to do it.

However, simply stating that you think mods are stupid, mods say stupid things and mods generally are idiots is a bad way to behave, and I really don\'t like when people behave like that. Maybe you\'re the one who should reconsider your attitude, or better yet, go somewhere else with it.

You\'re not really as smart as you think. You\'re kinda annoying.

And for Adyna, I have no doubt the idea works, it just needs more than what you\'ve been able to come up with so far. It\'ll need a load of work to pull off, and most people aren\'t willing to do that, especially when there\'s nothing in particular to write about. Then it just gets to be the same dull and repetitive things, over and over. Especially if something like a \"new guilds\" section gets added. That\'ll be like \"Ooh this one looks exciting. And this one... And that one over there. Oh, yeah, and those two I\'ve got right here. This one might be promising too. Hmm, haven\'t seen that one before either.\" And so on. But who knows... Something exciting might come along. You never know, but like I said in my previous post, good luck with the project.

buddha: The mods tend to be objective because we\'ve been around long enough to know which ideas work and fail.

 Don\'t, don\'t even think of starting such a thing again. Are you that old mate? Tell me, how the he*l can you say you know when something will succeed or will fail, without even knowing the person that is doing it? And please, do forget that thing between new members vs. old members okay? There\'s no difference in them, they\'re humans as well, some more dedicated to their ideas, some completely different.

 I guess time messes with people\'s minds, but I have to say that I am personally sick of this attitude :rolleyes:

 This is a good idea, and Adyna seems very devoted in taking care of it. Of course, she\'ll have a lot of support from different members, and also, there\'s a lot of information that can be used. Like I said, just take a look in the Guilds Forum, or the RP-ing one.

 * hands to Adyna a beautiful red rose.
 You have my support princess

 * EDIT *

 J. ... drop it. And leave that kiddo alone, unless you really were touched by his words aye? Well, maybe you\'ll realize that he was actually telling the truth.

 Sad ...  :baby: :rolleyes:

As a public service I have posted the word \"decorum\" under \"Word of the Day\" in \"Hydlaa Plaza\".

Hmmm, my posts are being edited by others...  Maybe my next \"word of the day\" will be \"maturity\".

[Draklar]

sounds like a first topic to me

[Loran]

I was away for a while... Not that anyone missed me of course :]

Just wanted to add my \"good luck to you\" also. Hopefully it\'ll become a succes. Maybe, if you haven\'t got enough ideas or stuff to tell about, you could make some sort of \"gossipping paper\" of it, you know... \"You saw Lhorkan and last night? Something nice is going on there... And relative. Just a thought.

[Annah]

Actually I do remember you, and I also remember your sig. Though, I can\'t say I really missed you but, maybe we\'ll get along better in the future and someday I\'ll miss you

[Platyna]

Well, I just wanted to tell, that previous gazette hadn\'t any cycles, there
were no weekly issues or montly, it was relased when some issue was
ready, so I think Adyna will simply relase a new issue when enought of
interesting things will happen. Maybe also it will encourage the people to
actually do some interesting things too? Who knows. ;-)
I have noticed people are trying to organize PK contests etc. I was
organizing major events on EL too, so I think we could write some quests
and organize contests based on them with help of GMs if they would
agree.

Regards.

That is not the same thing, and is not constructive criticism in itself.  Sure, maybe if you make assumptions off of it, but by itself, no.

I\'m not saying replies always have to be constructive, that would just be stupid, boring, and many other adjectives I could throw in.  Nor am I saying Mogura and those who posted more or less the same thing are wrong, it\'s just not constructive criticism.

Thought that I would point that out because, well....it\'s just what I do.

Hah.  I may disagree with you a lot, but your replies still kick ass.
