I'd really hate to see the news bar go because of disuse. I think it's a really neat Idea and I feel it could be given a bit of loving.
•Make it more noticeable? -Give the bar some color, maybe a tv-like visual. Animate it a bit more? I'm not sure of the tech limitations, but if it can be done I feel it'd be neat.
•Give the common player a way to interact with it. - Creating an Open thread? Give us a way to add it to the news!

I believe the news bar is mainly for DEs that happen with people like ViPoi and Bing in them, or someone with high power. This also includes site affecting items like Sagas, or cities / landmarks being destroyed or natural disasters.

Nope, I actually heard that it's available for basically anything. Not just big site-changing news. I think the biggest disconnect with the news bar is that nobody knows what the hell it does, or who it's for! xD I think that, like Tanis said, if there was just a simple thread opened up where you could submit a news request without having to worry about bothering staff with PMs, it'd get a lot more action.
At they very least maybe have big news like character deaths or game changing events get highlighted in bold text, while everything else stays italicized?
