well i have been playing origin for about a year and i have yet to see our reporters report on something other than the main storyline,i see on other shard forums where they report on EVERYTHING, from new guilds to player run events and much more.I havent seen our main reporter post jack crap about anything on origin, not even the storyline....you know who you are.This is not a dead shard so dont use that excuse.Either start reporting on stuff or give up the job!!!!!!
From my experiences within the media area, both internet and TV, there are many types of News. The majority of News articles are press releases. Then there are News Reports such as interviews and general "happening" reporting. As well, there are News Articles on Events, both Player and Game.
The main issue I take it that you have is the lack of Player Event Reporting. Unfortunately, I do not see that as blamable upon our Reporters, for our Reporters only know of Events when they are informed. We are not a mega-media news company like you see on News. We do not have paid Reporters that spend all of their "working" time finding news to report on. Those that do, go out of their own way and spend their own personal time volunteering to go find such news.
First, I'd suggest to give an ounce of respect to those who have so graciously volunteered their time to bring some news, any news at all, to Origin.
Second, I'd suggest to start submitting known Player Events to your Shard's Reporters so they can, you know, know that the Event is taking place and they can try and find the time, their own volunteered time they unselfishly give to the Shard, to report on it.
Such submissions for Origin can be emailed to
[email protected].

Thirdly, I'd suggest to send future complaints about Stratics Staff to
[email protected] and not spiel about it on the forums. With all that said, this discussion is closed.
