I am not opposed to back editions being placed in the library, convince talad and settings will review them for placement.

Editorial finality would be our prerogative though . . .

I wouldn be either if I would get a few Tria when someone reads them...
The fact that collectors are paying good prices for old editions is what keeps me halfway up, I gotta make a living too.
At the moment I would earn far more money by mining... who else wants to be listed as sponsor? ;)


--------------------


I cant believe the so called Guv Goldspear.
He just published his second edition of the Yellow Journal.

In the first edition the Headline was: "Scandal Rocks the Yliakum Herald"
He blow up an whole article about dubios schemings we made with our sponsors.
He wrote about a faked contest, but in truth the contest winner sponsored his prize because he like most others greatly appreciates our work.
Guv called everyone "to boycott the Yliakum Herald" withouth knowing the facts.

He was shouting insulting things and badmouthed the Herald at the Hydlaa Plaaza in the night...

He took 200 Tria for the first edition which almost contained nothing except this artcile about the Herald.

It seems that he copies us, he now makes a weekly edition which costs 250 Tria and contains very little information, most is made up.

We clarified the situation about the contest winner and sponsoring. We will stay neutral and wont publish anything about / against Guv.


I expect a public apology in his next edition, that is all I want, I dont mind business competition. [I hope he talked to the devs before he printed his books..]
Many of our readers will hunt him down otherwise, a bunch of people said they'd like to declare war against the Yellow Journal(only him?).

Cila cant believe that a newspaper is such intellectually undemanding...


[€2:]
By the way, we always ask before we publish any information about someone to avoid troubles,to stay neutral and to print facts.

Keep up the good work  :thumbup:
Im sure that the ppl of Yliakum are sane enough, they wont be lured by badmouthing. And as far as liking the YH goes, i'd like to be a sponsor  ;)

I think this is a really neat thing, I have only be able to read a few but the stories were very neat and creative, I think the YH has and will continue to spark a lot of roleplay in the game, Keep it up!

Posts concerning the Yellow Newspaper have been moved to their own thread, here.
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

[Thank you Karyuu!]

Cila is currently selling copies of the seventh edition at Hydlaa Plaaza.

"Thanks for the last donation.
If you want to contribute something or to run an ad, write it down and hand it in.
There is still no contest winner."

* Izzabella smiles as she reads the paper and finds her guild mentioned causing trouble at the gold mines, she quickly looks around herself to make sure no one has spotted her before running off again.

Cila says: "Indeed."

-----

Cila clears his throat and shouts: "The contest ended, there are two winners who found the item which was hidden in the DeathRealm behind the Citadell, accessed over the skeleton.
The winners are Atir and Pirill! After 4 days someone finally found it, I already feared that noone will find it."
Cila smiles: "They are both sponsors of the Herald, I hope that wont lead to any madeup stories about faked contest.
Besides, many people seem to think that sponsors are donating periodically, that would be great but all the listed sponsors only once sponsored a sum to help the Herald Media Group."
Cila waves goodbye and strides away waving with a newspaper.
