I remember reading a post by an IMM posting something IC because it was common knowledge(which wasn't common knowledge to me). I believe there is a problem with not being able to post IC related info. Do you think it is a good idea if we had a forum section for IC common knowledge?

It could be big events happening in the realm created by players or IMMs alike. The idea to to make the event sound fun to attract other players and fill in their knowledge gap to join the event. And after the event has happened, the results can be posted. Once an event has been completed, results from both sides can be reported. This will definitely have to be moderated by an IMM as we don't want personal IC information to be leaked. I'm not sure how the section will be moderated, but it could that we only allow leaders of each factions to post on it.

The post could look something like this, "[Ongoing] Sadr worshipers infects the Sylvan Trees and the Elves React!" or "[Completed] The Quad Returns - Will Zynor be return through blood rituals of the Crucible?" Rumors on this level can spread through the realm easily through the people of Pyrathia. This could also keep a fun history of the past.

Something that shouldn't be on the section would be like if Arcadie posted "[Ongoing] The Harlequins Manor War on the Fist of the White Swan," which is not considered a world event and just faction politics.

This is a good idea and is related to some forum/game type of changes that I'm hoping we can get implemented one day, hopefully sooner than later.

There are plans for the Astral board to be accessible from the forums as I recall.

Honestly all this information if it was being made could be posted on IC notice boards and written up into IC books. The problems simple comes people dont like to use the Note command. They also dont like to mention being on the losing side of something ever.
