Sorry to mention this again, I'm a bit obsessive. Anyway, if you look at the news section of the site, the last item posted is Frank's message about Bluefinger, dated Feb 26th. Since then, we've learned about: the Best Of including label, release date, press release, cover and tracklist for CD1; a release date for Bluefinger; the Threshold Apprehension 7" ep + release date; and the first dates for the European tour, including rumours about the musicians accompanying Frank. All of this should be in the news, mainly to get him publicity. I don't think mags and webzines read the forum daily, but they do check out the main page and relate what's being posted there.
Now I know the mods are a) doing a lot of work already and b) busy with their own life, but couldn't we find some way of keeping the news section updated?
Then there's the question of announcing only official news (ie confirmed by Frank's management) or posting everything including rumours (if they don't sound too silly, I mean). I know Dean was in favour of "official only", but since it's not an official site, I don't see the point of doing so.

There IS a section where you guys can post news submissions and if you want to craft news releases and help out then you certainly can there. It still needs to be approved before being posted on the front page, but it would definitely help a lot is other people were writing stuff to help us.
For my part, I'm too out of the loop right now to post and definitive news or really even say whether something is accurate or not, but that should change soon.

Well, now that you mention it... I totally forgot about that thing. I'll post stuff and see what happens. My main fear was that my english is poor, but if you rewrite my submissions before posting then it's alright.

Denis, your English is great. But guys, if you need an editor for this sort of thing, don't hesitate to ask. It's what I do for a living.
 Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

Update: the "Submit news" link isn't working. I get an error 404.

Really??? That's troublesome as that's what we use to post the news as well. I'll look at it pronto.

Hmm... there was an underscore added to the file for some reason. Fixed now.

OK, thanks. Meanwhile I sent you guys some stuff via the "Contact us" form, did you get them? If so, why aren't them in the news already?

So does that mean you're working on relations with FB's new management? So he hasn't abandoned us for listening to Bluefinger 10 times per day?
It sure feels weird that it's an exciting time, but official involvement form the Man feels strangely absent from the site when we're all abuzz.

Say wat? we have Full Sail IPA in the USA, but it's not labeled as "TASTY". What a gyp.

I didn't get anything Denis. And yeah, we're working on something but he's not getting back to us like Ken did, so it may be a bit of a struggle to find some equilibrium...
