Talk:Current events

How is this page in anyway useful? All the information presented here is duplicated in other Editing places. --Finkename 05:39, 28 Apr 2005 (CST)

I agree, if anything THIS page should be where all the "NEW" and "UPDATED" tags should be so that people can just check hear to see what's been updated, though using the Recent Changes link is even easier. ?? Nicks the page all together ??

This page is useful because it's the one that is listed in the navbar. It is where things should be, not elsewhere. This page cannot (and should not) be deleted. --Roguelazer

Heh. Mayhap the navbar needs an update as well? When I see current events, the last thing I think about is the information that is listed on this page.--Finkename 13:27, 6 May 2005 (CST)

I'd have to agree with Fin on that, perhaps change the nav and toolbox links around so that it is more custom to the wiki site and less right out of the box. You could add links for "General Information", "In-Game Databases", Guides", and "Other Documents" to the Navigation box and move all those links to those new pages, and have a nice spash page. Also, a better place IMO for "Recent Changes" and "Random Page" would be in the Toolbox box. Also, change the "Current Events" page into something more along the lines of a BBS for posting in-game activities like the RP forum is used (ie. mining trips, HAC battles, Relay Races, Track Races, etc.) without the forum feel, just like it is now. Though I'm sure this will not be a liked suggestion. --Mark McDoogle 15:11, 25 May 2005 (CST)

Does anyone care?

Is anyone actually looking at this page to see events? Sometimes I feel like I'm doing it solely for myself? Anyone else out there looking at this page for info or should I just stop updating it?? --Mark McDoogle 15 September 2005 15:43 (CST)

I've used it once or twice. It's a useful resource, but if it's taking too much of your time, don't kill yourself over it. It's just a game. :P --Roguelazer 2005-09-15 19:35:48 (CST)

<POKE> - The discussion as to the usefulness of this page seems like it needs to be brought up again. Who would use this page instead of the RP forum or the in-game news? Plus, everything except maybe the Test Server section is out of date or empty. --Klox November 19, 2005 04:10 (CST)

I used to update via the RP forum, personally I can't stand the "official" website at all and would much rather see an outlined current events page with links to posts regarding the specific event like it was, but for the most part there have been little events going on, at least that I'm aware of, other then the race around the universe (zzzzzzâ€¦) so what was the point of updating it any more.--Mark McDoogle 22 November 2005 23:24 (CST)
