CNN: Getting Involved
The CNN Group, from an OOC standpoint, is our very own New Network, something which started out ironically as a result of a joke on Skype between myself and @Dmitri and now has become a much
Simply put, CNN is about cooperation, and having fun by taking the mickey out of real world broadcasters. We all know and love the hypocrisy of many large broadcasters, and here at CNN our focus is to enable you to take part in this, big up your own characters, or just have some fun.
So please read on for how you can get involved further!
Submissions
CNNs main form of interacting with the wider site is through the articles we publish on our main Czerka News Network thread. Naturally, we cannot keep an eye on everything going on across the site, so it falls to members to send stuff in. This is a simple process, and can be done in one of two ways.
Either you can PM me a link to a thread, informing e of the involved members and a TLDR of what is going on, and I can write it up for you, or you can send in a fully written article, which I shall then edit and post with your efforts attributed below.
By doing this you feed into the
Characters
One thing I have been considering for a while is how CNN can interact more directly in the story, helping to shape not just report on events in the story boards. This can be done in a number of ways, either you can refer to CNN in your posts (in which case, please do!) or you can roll a character that works for (part time perhaps?) the CNN group - if you wish to do this, lemme know and I’ll get an unofficial listing of Part-Timers up, so we can roll some threads together.
Other Support
Quite simply, feedback and advice on what you would like to see in CNN posts goes a long way. Let me know what you think about CNN, post below, or slam me a PM. It is great to get feedback, as I want to continue to ensure that CNN is not only informative and amusing, but continues to be not only of use to the site itself, but also a new way players can develop and enjoy their time here.
I shall add more to this as feedback comes in and ideas come to me, and in the meantime a thanks to @Sangga @Prudence @Darasuum and others for their regular contributions, and numerous others for the work toward keeping CNN going.
