Hello everyone! I have for proposal a very simple idea.
When a player in a post commits what they think a legitimate, saga-worthy event, they will post on a website header OR thread (if header is too much), as BREAKING NEWS: "Mysterious alien destroys Jingle Village!" (For example), followed by a link to the thread in which it takes place. This will give major newsworthy events an RP flavor, allowing other characters throughout the world to all know when a major world-shaking event takes place.
This idea came to me because I was unaware that Jingle Village was partially/totally exploded until after the DE, when Koramund said so on chatbox and I went back to read his old posts.
It would be a totally RPish way to alert everyone to potentially saga-level events who might otherwise have missed an opportunity.
The thread/header would be completely IC and RPed, and have to be formed in the manner of a global news headline. For instance, people wouldn't be speaking as their characters (unless announcing something to news-people), but reporting on what their characters did.
Only serious messages of what players honestly believe are saga-level events could be put in there, and abuse of it could be dissuaded in the form of some sort of stiff Zeni fine, etc, as the staff sees fit.
More examples:
BREAKING NEWS: "Group of Saiyans attack the Central Capitol! Global defense forces engaged in combat."
BREAKING NEWS: "Legendary Super Saiyan? Alien proclaims himself God-King of Earth."
BREAKING NEWS: "Central Capitol destroyed in massive explosion, millions feared dead."
Simple and short sentences like that with the links to the event.
