	Re: University News Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Oh, and an explanation:

quote: NAME:

What should the University news agency be called? Vote on as many of these as you'd like. The one with the most votes wins.

quote: AVAILIBILITY:

Where should it be posted? In the general forums for everybody to see or in the specific University forum so only University members can see it?

quote: COOPERATION WITH OTHER NEWS AGENCIES:

Undoubtedly other news agencies will begin to spring up. Should we co-operate with them?

quote: WOULD YOU WRITE FOR US:

Would you write an article for our news agency?

quote: BREAKING NEWS EDITIONS:

Something major happens but its not time for the edition to come out. Should I simply post a breaking news edition, post it in a topped thread, or not do anything at all?

quote: SHOULD EDITORIALS CRITISIZING SPECIFIC PEOPLE BE RUN:

Should editorials that attack specific people who do NOT CONCENT to it be run? Eg "TKG SUCKS!!!!!"?

I read over this, and I see it doesnt make much sense, so let me try again: Should editorials with malicious intent (eg actually attacking the person) be run?

2nd voter and already I see some discrepancies in the name option Tass....naughty naughty Tass.

Can everyone who votes in this please post in the topic? If more people than who are members of the UoP faction vote, then obviously we're going to have to do a backcount to find which votes need to be invaliated.

wrt the last question... are you talking about editorials that actually attack the person's character, or ones that attack what they are doing currently?

And regarding the availability question... I think full editions should be run in the private forum, while 'censored' editions containing information which isn't sensitive and/or is just RPing 'fluff' should be posted in the main forum.

Hmm......Too bad

I mean attacking a person themselves with obvious malicious intent.

Anything attacking anybody personally will be run by the person in question, but I just want to get everybodies opinion.

Hehe, I tolerate your little insignificant paper because of your relationship to the glorious hive, so I spared some time for voting here... Just out of politeness...

I voted for TUT as name, availability to all (to check for anti-hive-propaganda ), cooperation with everyone, me writing sometimes for your toilet reading newspaper (just to add some sense to it ), breaking news in topped thread and the editor run thingie - well, I can´t remember. (I was looking for xenobanana, but...)

Good luck. I´ll probably subcribe to your paper.
I like reading gossip lecture to relax from serious political work...

PS: No offence, I´m just starting the rpg fight...

Well, if Micha is voting, then so am I. The Hive hopes that the intellectual brothers of the University will not interfere with our social experiments. We look forward to reading your reports.

Oh - can I suggest that someone from your faction acts as a "reporter" and gives news stories to PRAVDA. If you want to communicate something to the world, then maybe our readers want to know about it too. But please - once we install an Editoral Deputy to the Peoples' Advisory Council, then we will have no more free press. Articles for PRAVDA in the future should be submitted to the EDttPAC, whoever that turns out to be. We will do the same in response, giving news to the UoP in whatever format is requested.

Thanks - Jam

I agree with my colleagues that we should cooperate with other news agencies; for the benefit of providing the people real news while at the same time saving them from propaganda that would seek to weaken the trust of the people in the state.

Long live the Hive!

Comrades of the University! The Party and people of the Hive outstretch the hands of friendship. Let us prosper together in peace. Cooperation between our two media sources increases the knowledge of the people, and hence strengthens the revolution, for a good Communist is an educated Communist.

However, communists do not mix with the sub-species of Stalinists

Oh, and I'm going to sleep. Uh, the poll ends whenever I check it next time. Which may be in a few days, or a few hours.

So, be ready..... And if there is a tie, I'll cast a tiebreaker vote.

Comrade Tassadar seems to feel threatened by the popularity and success of PRADA; Comrade War of Art the pride of the people is with you, for your creation truly is magnificent for the capitalists feel threatened by it.

Comrade Voltaire
We have no reason to distrust the antisocial ivory tower intellectuals. Their wisdom may be of use when we arrive on Planet. Perhaps many of the faculty members share our political opinions. Remember that the University faculty consists of men of learning, not sofisticated politicitians or rough soldiers or hard-working common Drones. We must forgive the outbursts of the more passionate members of their community.

Comrade War of Art, I apologize, my conviction to the people and the party got the best of me. We must foster friendship between the Hive and the University so both or peoples prosper. Antagonism should be avoided, for it leads to distrust. Let us then invite Comrade Tassadar to visit the offices of PRAVDA sometime so that his concerns may be put at ease. Of course this visit would have to be scheduled by the Party in advance, but it would foster greater cooperation between our two media sources.
