Well, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in having a paper on the site.
It would be some sort of way to keep track with what's happening on the site since lets face it, LOTS is happening on the site and it takes some honest time to process all of the information.
Which was why some sort of Newspaper on the site would be interesting, to keep the members up to date. No?
This could work both ways, both OOC as IC.
OOC could be by new boards that have been added to the site or new rules, etcetera, anything really whilst IC would be about certain threads or happenings.
Example:
Caspian X seen sightseeing the mall!!!
Last friday afternoon, etcetera, etcetera, ...
Yeah I know, lame example but twas all I could think of at the moment. When it would be a case of an OOC edition it would need to be mentioned in the thread of course.
I think it could work if there would be a small group of people willing to take on the responsability to work together and actually be ON time with their articles.
If this did got through I suggest creating a password protected board for this group of editors where they can discuss various ideas of for articles and get to discuss with the other what article goes in the edition and which don't.
It would need to be an active sort of mess in there, xD and the people that would be writing articles would need to be dedicated and only in the worst situations be unactive in the board.
This would be handy since basically, every Narnian would be able to read it and so be updated with the news. The news doesn't need to be about threads or things like that, I mean there could be much more in there, like funny little ideas such as our daily news. Like, 'Weather disturbs peaceful Wedding of two idk's' or "Owl died trying to save her nest", etcetera.
People of which there's a great turmoil around could be 'interviewed' and so on. Basically, there'd always be something to do and talk about.
xD
It would also be a good way to get those gossips going in the gossip board. I mean, who wouldn't want to gossip about why Caspian X would go and sightsee a mall? xD
EDIT:
If this idea doesn turn out to be accepted, the Paper should need a better name than Daily Aslan, obviously! LOL

Basically, yes.
However there could also be a possibility in which the writers would be able to make some stories up? Just so people have some news to discuss. XD

That's what the IC rumors are for... hmm.. and who would be in charge of what goes in it.. because I would actually like to see it before it get's "published" if it's possible...

Well, I thought it was quite obvious the admin checks everything. XD
I disagree on the matter of the IC rumors. Mainly because they're not news, they're rumors. They're not facts and people could easily switch the story into a half fictional - half true based story, because that just sums up what rumors are.
What would appear in the paper would be facts only and actually tell the truth. ^^
Either way, I was thinking that one person was in charge of the entire thing and that all writers must hand this person their articles by a certain date. This person in charge (I'd love to take the position though if anyone wants it I don't mind =P) would have to look over everything first either way. And decide what's of more importance.
Once they did that they'd send you everything that would go in the paper and wait for your yay to post it. ^^
