Thanks!

Sure. I'll do what I can. I do some news for some other places and can put something in every few days or so.

I don't think we need to find MORE members to join the BetaONE News Team. Rather I think we need to let all members select the news we read with the help of the BetaONE News Team. As seen in my comments before.

The reason we created the 'News Team' is, we had some members posting news all over the place, even in support forums! So we created the team. The goal of the team is to post news in an organized situation.

News team members are NOT required to post daily or even weekly. They *are* asked to pick a forum that is most interesting to them, read it often, not repeat old news, and to post in the correct forum when they find relevant topics.

We have also created a 'news crew' private forum so our teams can communicate with each other in a timely and profunctory manner.

Again, at this point in time we are in need of 'Beta' and 'General' news team members. Please reply to this thread if you are interested and an "Action B1 Live Reporter" will contact you. :D

If your going to quote me, I hope that you read the post you quote me about.

I said in the FEEDBACK SECTION:

Quote:

I know I have been told in the past if I find a news story that I think is good, post it in Chit Chat. If the news team thinks it's good they will move it into the Members News Section since only the News Team can post in that section.

I like this idea, but rather than post in Chit Chat could we post in a section that wouldn't bother others. Somewhere all members could feel free to post several news postings that the News Team could review and pick from if the want. It would also be best that any postings in "THAT SECTION" not be listed on the Main BetaONE page, therefore not bumping any of the other top 10 posts off. Of course, if one of those news postings were selected and the News Team moved it into the news section....then yes let those bump one of the top 10 recent postings.

I'm not sure how clear I've made my idea.
Just my $.02 anyway

I don't really think you understand or read what I said before you posted. Please feel free to contact me and I hope to help clear it up, because I really didn't mean it the way you made it sound.

Dear Mr. Cobra.

No disrespect was meant. I simply used your quote to clear up a few things as regards the request for new news posters.

I'll now expand on some other points you've made. Again, I only do this because your points are valid and hope to shed some light on the way we have set up the news crew.

"I know I have been told in the past if I find a news story that I think is good, post it in Chit Chat. If the news team thinks it's good they will move it into the Members News Section since only the News Team can post in that section."

Actualy, news that's posted in the news forums is considered on a regular basis for inclusion to the front page news blurbs. I'm sorry if you thought news posted in 'chat' would be considered for a 'bump' to the news forums but this is not the case.

"... rather than post in Chit Chat could we post in a section that wouldn't bother others. Somewhere all members could feel free to post several news postings that the News Team could review and pick from if they want. "

For some reason I don't understand, we don't have a true 'members news' forum. I think the main reason is, we're trying to organize the news in a way that is easiest for our members to access. In the mean time, all B1 members should feel free to post news they think will help the rest of us in the chat forum.

Thank you for your comments. I edited some of your quote so I could try and express myself and relate to all of our members why the news forum runs the way it does. I hope you don't mind.

Thank You.

Mr. tubebuoy,

I recently posted some NEWS I thought others on the board would enjoy in Chit Chat, because I'm not part of the News Team and therefore can't post in the News Section. The title is NEWS - Hackers Access Visa & Mastercard and you will currently find it posted in the BetaONE News Team Tech News Section. Guess where this was posted first since I'm not currently part of the News Team? Yep, Chit Chat Section.

I know what I have been told in the past.
I know what currently happens.

I only want to help out and don't want to fight, but again I just wish things were clear among everyone within the Team.

Sincerely,

KingCobra

I see what you mean KingCobra. I had a doubt about what you said by "because I'm not part of the News Team and therefore can't post in the News Section", as I remembered it as "Member Submitted News". So I went back to the main page and refreshed my memory. And you were right, KingCobra.
It was:

News Team Submitted News
All of the news submitted by our news team.


Sorry for my misunderstandings, you were right KingCobra. :)
