This was disabled in a recent update. I think it was wrongly removed and I used to use this to keep up to date with all the updates. Can we please get it back?

Its on the logon screen of the client which I say is a lot better place. ie much more readable.

I say no!

We could have it in both the start up and in game though right?

I don't know about you, but I haven't gotten ANY news update displayed on the client startup screen since the update at 20th November 2008.

this.

more often than not, the time you want to check the news is when you are in the middle of something, not when you first log in.

Same.

Me neither. News updates displayed prior to logging in go up to November 20 and stop.

at first i read the update and i think it said "it should be in your face" i go and check and i have to scroll down which to me is useless since i don't read what i can't see (it may be my screen res or my startup client size, but i don't like the client size large).

but yeah i'd like it ingame, or somewhere where i don't have to scroll down to see.

i like it not popping up at login but it would be nice to do /news again for it for those in full screen especially.

^ Could make it an optional thing in the Options section of the client maybe?

I like the news updates, but I dont like it popping up the second I log in. Maybe only have it pop up once, then again when there is a new update.

I'd like to still be able to type /news if i want to see them, Just make it not show by default.

Both. I like the news smacking me in the face, and i forget to check upon login.

Same. Unless the news smacks you in the face there's a good chance I'll miss them.

I agree. I like to see it when I log in and I like to have the option of /news when I missed something or didn't want to read it all at login. I do also like to see it on the start menu as well... but really only if i can't log in for some odd reason...

Working his ass off to cater the ever-so-demanding player-base.

I actually never knew it was in the start screen until this thread. Having to scroll down to find something = bad imo.

Well looking at the poll, an overwhelming majority wants /news back, as do i.

Lets see it happen.

I agree.

Could somebody poke Rolf when you next see him maybe and ask him to look at this thread. I think he'd be interested to see the poll.

same thought - I often used to read /news shortly after I used up my sb (and sometimes while I was using it)
