Experimental Project Fox: News Network for Heavens Tear

Wwing - Heavens Tear

In a nutshell: Perfect World International online newspaper.

Not in a nutshell:
I am currently experimenting with creating our own news network which will cover stories from comical level to serious inter-faction war. I have previously done the same news project for other MMO and it worked quite well until my school took over my time.

Within this post, I will officially start Project Fox, and I am welcoming contributors as well as readers to the newly formed News Blog: http://pwifox.blogspot.com/

I am hoping for the support from our great Perfect World community as well as the staff even by simply reading and leaving comments to form the ideal news source as well as historical archives of the game developments.

Best Regard,
wWing



extra note: Yes, I am the one who created the other news blog with identical setup and style for that one MMO game.

there was once a topic (maybe your other char?) about something like this: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=75252&highlight=news

Sadly, it never happened.

So I say why not? Hisui's TW predictions are a good reading, so this would follow along the same path (broader topics, but still player's interpretation on guilds stuff). Go for it ^^

From my previous experience, a lack of staff is the greatest problem in maintaining the news network.

But one thing for sure, I really need responses from the community in order to make an ideal news network, because every community will have their own tastes as well as style.



That topic was created by somebody else, but I already planned for this for quite long time. I decide to start this news project right on the expansion day.

I need help, lot of it.

So far of whats has been posting I have found pretty interesting. Can't wait until more articles are posted. b:cute

Kelovar - Heavens Tear

Not much talk about us but heh... lol

I like it so far too. I especially like the more subjective parts, talking about factions and stuff, more than the objectives ones (stating TW times).

Finals are coming , and I will need to leave the country for 2 weeks around Christmas time.
I will be quite busy until next yet, so I will currently record the TW schedule and progress until the whole real life tsunami has passed.


I don't mind anyone trying to write an article about stuff on their own server.

PM me your own article.



Meanwhile, I want to make a thread about Gold trading records for statistic and analysis.

Probally sources from clans (Faction news) @ Wargasm.

I like the idea actually, Aslong as it doesn't prove to be full of biast(spelt wrong) news topics about clans and members.

I'd like to see this work though.

PKing,Most hated,Most wanted,TW news, Faction news, Stuff like that would be a nice read.


I don't like Hisuis predictions mainly because it causes alot of arguements, This news may and may not cause arguements if its set up proper so read how Hisui sets up her Predictions..Laugh..Then make your news better. Goodluck

Wwing - Heavens Tear

Thank you for all the suggestions. I will try to implement it after my finals over. Expect that within 4-5 days.

I thought you liked drama? Anyways, Hisui herself is saying that the predictions are made with her current knowledge of guilds in a disclaimer.

People simply choose to argue on her predictions, because they like arguing I guess. I simply enjoy reading those ^^

That's really interesting, no way we can get it e-mailed to us? =x

I can setup the RSS , and you can setup your email client/program to fetch it. Thunderbird ftw.

Drazo - Heavens Tear

I bet Hisui would love this.

Overall I don't mind really. To give everyone on the HT a chance to be aware of this and sign up you'll probably have to spend a lot of telecoustics getting the message out every so often though. b:victory
