Would it be possible to have an official announcement system, where for example, ioi could say what is happening with the database, so we dont get 1000 threads about it every single day.

Also, stuff like if numbers are going to be delayed, so once again, we don't get 1000 threads about that. It could come under news, but this would be easier then just doing it through threads, that don't stay there on the front page

that sounds like a solid sensible idea to me

Sounds good to me.

I agree, that would definately help with those threads.

Just a sticky in the website forum would be good. Maybe something that is read only...as in, you can't post.

I'd like an announcement segment then a sticky.

Sounds cool.
What do the Mods think about it?

I think it would be a nice addition! This would be about small announcements only, and updates about already known upgrades. If a brand new upgrade was being revealed, it should still have it's own Thread.

That is a very good idea munkeh, make sure the mods hear of it, if they don't see it in here then PM DKII or stof!

Excellent idea, I can never keep up with what's going on.
