We need an Eorzea Tribune

[SmokeyTheSequel]

Im sure anyone that played FFXI in the early days can remember logging into POL and reading the Vana'diel Tribune. I think it would be awesome to have that here. I use to get a kick out of reading it. I can't believe that was almost 10 years ago lol...

Here is a link for those that are curious about what im talking about.

I have a feeling that they'll just want the lodestone Blogs to be your Eorzea Tribune, but would like to see this make a comeback.

Hell even just make it a cameo thing as a backdrop for the 'recommendation' window that pops up everytime you log in.

I remember this; and I was a little disappointed when they discontinued it. It would be cool to have something like this around for Eorzea. They were mostly silly reads and/or lore, which was nice. It was rather neat in FFXI to see contributing characters with quills next to their names running around.

I was so into Vana'diel Tribute. We did have a fictional paper for Eorzea though. In fact, three of them. See here: http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...any/index.html

We have 3 newspapers. they report mostly about events.
On the old lodestones the articels from the newspapers were archived to one page.

Sadly this feature is still missing on the new Lodestones, but the newspapers are still here

Yes, yes, yes. I will make up lore for SE about deceased NPC's if I have to!

Yeah, it's time to get a bit more lore up in here. Where's my Harbor Herald at?

[Radxen]

I miss Fabilix and his Goblin Adventures too, we should have Brayflox write about his adventures D:

I think what people mostly mean is how the Tribune gave is insight on the game's world, lore and info on some characters that weren't explained through in-game quests yet until expansions - Stuff like that. It even dropped hints on new content and stories about our avatars. The current ones are just an excuse to make a fancy page about a FATE.

Like I said, it should be like they did in the old Lodestones again

And the event GMs should also wander around ingame as the reporters again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9C3Jn5M0kTo
