Not that I don't appreciate the fact you are submitting news I have opened the News forum up so anyone can submit news, it just does not automatically show up, it just has to be approved first. Some of the submitted news will make it, others will not. Soon I will open a news submission forum where users can submit the news and it will be moved over to the news forum if its approved. Happy Newsposting.
