xevanx Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I don't know if this is a good spot to put this, but I am posting it here :notalk: basically I want to know your opinion if I was to make a Runescape Newspaper. It would be a website, with articles like: Gossip pieces Classifieds Updates Clan Advertisements RuneScape General Articles Pictures maybe comics it would come out every Friday or Tuesday. I am leaning towards tuesday or Wed. because then I can add the weekly updates and possibly a link to a guide. would you like to see a graphical interface or a regular newspaper interface? would you read it? Thoughts, Opinions suggestions etc. move it if its in the wrong section, Sorry :S Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randox Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 If you did a really good job, tip.it might even give a link to you (i think they might do it), otherwise you'ed have to advertise it some other way. I would read it, and it's a good idea is long as your a decent writer (im thinking in tearms of grammer really). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thus Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 If its well written, I'm sure it would be read by members of these forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I'll read it if its entertaining. :) "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xevanx Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 I of course will try and make it the most entertaining as possible. the question to be answered now is what type of website do you want? a fancy dancy graphics layout or a nice simple clean easy to navigate one?

Zaaps1 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 If you need a suggestion for a name, I got one. In the Shield of Arrav quest there's mention of a newspaper, the varrock Herald I think. ~It's Super Effective!

jaym112 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 While it is interesting, and would be worth a read, Tip.it has all those things plus more, so you're not going to get many readers unless you offer something original that can't be found around here.

spikerkid Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Sounds like the galleries and post bag from the hedge on a newpaper in game. To much detail for a little screen. Quit RuneScape :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xevanx Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 I am not looking for a big website, I just want a small website that gets people coming back because it is oodles of fun to read.

unkn0wnwarrior Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I'd read it. I enjoy reading such things. As for fancy or simple, I would say simple would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p0nd3r4 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 +1 to the person above. Basic but what graphics are there should be well made. Maybe I can help? If you have MSN please, add me.
