To be perfectly honest, the post could be put into a blog, with a sticky/forum title placed upon whichever forums want to link to the blog, with the header "The Sosarian Evening Poste". That much is easy. Same as any PM sent to the evening poste to be sent automatically to a single email address, either hosted on the forums or an independant email host. That way ALL pm's sent to that/those accounts (dependant on whether other forums would allow such an account to exist), can be configured to be sent to that email, only one place to check for letters/articles. Only one place to be updated (the blog). Its easy enough for people to see when the latest edition was produced through it showing on the forum.

Other than that, putting a backdrop/skin onto a specific forum for the poste, with newspaper background and related font, also easy enough. (altho, dont ask me, I'm techinically incompetant, best ask the other admins).

But, as it stands, the poste writers do an excellent job, which I attempted and couldnt keep up with even in the slightest. With regards to:

Can I just point out, now due to the split in forums. Not only do the poste writers have to check f4g for news, they have f4g, guvadan, uoforums, Coves website, and a handful of other indepandant places.
Pass me some addresses and I'll add them to the list of forums currently active, that regard to uo, on the bottom of the UO forums on here.
