Hey guys...i have an idea to help organize all of the news broadcasts and things. I was thinking of making one thread that would be pinned in the regular RP threads called Hyrule Press International or something like that. We could use the already made Hyrule News Network...
Then, instead of having everyone with their own threads, (I don't know out you, but I never look through all of them) everyone would post their news story in the one thread with their news logo and stuff like that. It would look a lot more professional, and all be in one place. You would click on it and be able to see the news and stuff from everyones region instead of having to check 8 different threads every time.
Then, every once in awhile, the HNN/HPI can come up with a regional report (I can do it) that will summarize the events of all of the regions. People can PM me a summary if they think I am a poor writer or will have bias or whatever if you are worried about that.
Ideas anyone??

Sounds like a good plan. I'm in favour of it.

If you wish. But that would mean that may be a bit less organized than the news board. If you wanted to see, say, a news report from Clamparapa, you may have to look through pages and pages of posts. If you would like, we could have a vote. Also, would it be possible to have a regional news source that has regional news which sums everything up? Like you said, but without all the news posts together. I just think it would be less organized if we had everything together. I see what you mean. We would be able to react to other news stories if we had this. So it's basically a coin flip. We'll take a vote and see what others think. We could do it here or in the main RP board, Metz.

I also read everyone's news posts and while Metz's idea is too chaotic I wouldn't mind Durandal's idea of a summarized news post...

Well, I wanted to have everyones news posts in one area, that way you would have to read them all. Plus, (I thought I made this clear but I didn't) -I would be posting from the HNN point of veiw a summary of everyones news bulletons to clear things up...probably once a week or something.
Basically-
A:1 Thread with all of the news bulletons: You have to read them all so why not have them all in one spot?
B: ABout once a week I can come up with a summary news post from the HNN(Hyrule News Network) concluding all of the posts from the last update in once neat and clean post.
C: With everyone posting in one spot, I was hoping that everyone would create a logo/symbol and a station name (many of us already have) to post at the top of your post everytime so that one could easily scroll through and find the logo in order to fin your news post quickly. It will also look pretty neat with all of the logos and such.
D: I really dont think it will be chaotic. People are not posting 3-4 news post's everyday, so you would not have to scroll through pages and pages to find them. If you are keeping up with them n the first place (Like we should) then you should already know what page the post's should be on or if a new page is now added.
Plus, Its all in one spot so u don't have to click 50 times to see them all, and everyone will have something to seperate them from the others, that being the logo. It adds the summary of all of the news bulletins so that its easily cleared up every week. The sumarry would be one post once a week including all of the nations news updates in one singe report (if that clears that up).

(Sorry for double post) I created a Logo/Banner. If you dnt like it post yours on here and if the majority likes the new one I'll go with it. You are all now free to post your news updates in the Thread. You can even copy and paste your latest news report into it if you like. Also, any suggestions on the post i made for the HNN on how to not be biased, make it more true or whatever else, feel free to say so here. Try and be nice but I really dont care what you guys say-I'm not trying to be a journalist lol Also, if you want you can post a paragraph about your nation here for me to copy and paste into the next HNN Report whenever you like, and I'll use that as the report for your nation. I may change it a bit but w/e. I hope you guys like it and that it will all work out! Thanks for letting me/us do this

I like how you did that interview with one of your generals and I was thinking you could do the same with other international leaders and generals, pending of course both parties agree. It'd be like a "60 minutes" or "ABC/ NBC/ CBS News" interview...Other than that I thought it looked good...

I'm down to doing something like that. If you know the name of the person with relation to the type of report you are doing, you can even write the interveiw and PM it to me or post it here, and I'll get it into the thread!
