    Default News forum (ATTN admins)

    So, I've been thinking about how we should handle posting the news, and remember back when we were talking about integrating it into the forums? Well, I've written a script that's able to take threads from the forums and display their first post on the site. What this means is that we can have Gabi or Suzie create a forum that only certain people have permission to post new threads in, but anyone can post replies, and that will serve as the news forum. Any thread that gets posted there will be displayed, along with its original post, on the main site. The main advantage of this is that the news will be more visible, since people will be able to see it in both the forums and the site.

    So, what do you think? Good idea? Bad idea?
