What happened during term V?!?! Where is the NewZupdate!?!

[UnOrthOdOx]

What happened in term V? And is ANYONE taking up the newsupdates?

I cannot tell. There has not been ONE newsupdate submitted since the elections, and that is even burried back on page 4 of the news page...You ALL knew I was leaving, I told you all the gOdZ asked for them once/week, what happened? Nothing since the 17th of October...

Be warned. The next one to question will not be me, but directly from the gOdZ...

UnOrthO,
The lack of newsupdates are my fault. I wanted to get the Gazette out before I sat down and started writing a newZupdates. As the Gazette became delayed, the newzupdate did as well. Again, my most sincere apologies.

Assuming there's no one who's jumping to take them up, I'll get one out this weekend.

I do not agree.

As you have likely found out, this has all been too much for one person. the Gazette, the Directory, the newZupdate, Running for office...it is too much, and that is partially to blame for my lack of activity more than any real lack of ABILITY to connect or be active. It is too much, it burns you out after a while. I did it for 4 months more or less...sometimes you just need a break, or someone to help. And helping is what it seems no one wishes to do. Several times I had asked for assistance with updates, Gazettes, directory...and time and again, you were the only one to speak up. This is not solving the underlying problem, it is too much for one person. We have only transferred that to you instead of me.

In my humble opinion, it should be the job of the government to ensure that the updates are sent out. this is the only thing the gOdZ have asked for. The Government need not WRITE them, just a gentle reminder that it needs doing, perhaps? Getting a new volunteer each week would be a great way to bring different styles to the public...

and doing the newZupdate is a great way to get you name noticed by the gOdZ...just ask ada

And the public, you might then run for an office and win.

Actually, I was referring to ada's first update. Can't remember if it was Mark or Dan, but they added a nice paragraph totally on who ada was, and what he had done for the C3DG.
