The idea would be to provide something like the latest news forum in the early days, where the posts would show up on the homepage.

The twist is that our active, contributing users would be the ones posting news. For example, NSMB2 hacking news. Or anything news-worthy pertaining to the site or to romhaxing/emulation in general.


I'm interested by the idea, but there are a few issues:


* Enforcing a quality standard. How high do we want it? For example, we don't want an idiot who keeps making posts every time they move a Goomba in their level.

* Having people understand what would deserve a news post.

* While the idea of user-contributed news sounds cool and democratic and all, the news would definitely give a preview of the Kuribo64 community, so it must look good. Maybe staff approval/review?


The old news feed mostly died because there isn't anything major going on, but there may be a good amount of news-worthy contents still.


So what do you guys think about this?

Also, maybe a Category selection could be useful. A news post relevant to, say, SM64DS Hacking could be under the category of ROM Hacking, and only people who have selected to view ROM Hacking news would see it.

Just my opinion on the matter.

I like this idea, maybe it could be biweekly?

If it does become a reality, I'd be interested in writing / editing for it.

I won't be really contributing. I myself don't seem to be SUPER interested, but I don't know a lot about the hacking scene.

If it's all about technical crap though, like finding the 40 string hash boolean if function squared, then meh.

Nah, the point is to produce 'sexy' content, not technical babble noone understands.

As for the publishing rhythm, it would be... whenever someone has something to post, I guess.

boolean is 0/1, if it's a 40 byte string then call me

Yes, clearly that's what he wants to do. [/sarcasm]

We can do the most interesting ROM Hacks for example: SMBN.
