This is actually alittle bit harder but if you have a news box on the left under links. Maybe containing Gaming News. Reason for this is that this seems to be a community for multiple games and it would be nice to have related articles appear in it.

Now implementing it, the easiest way would be to do it manually. I mean with Nuke Php I can give people access to only certain parts so maybe that can be done as people take it as their job to keep up important news links that they see and post them in that box. Its sometimes a pain to jump around from site to site keeping up with everything. Like I frequent all the gamespy planet pages and such multiple times a day. With all the games I will be playing on Gamehavoc community, itd be nice to have a focal point where not only can I come to this page to discuss things with the community but I can come here to see whats going on with the games. Could be anything as a update, to a new mod or maybe a stratgey guide. I think you all have a decent grasp of what I am trying to say. Just a thought on improving people visiting Gamehavoc and continuously attracting more people to visit more frequently and join up with the community.

RSS... If those sites have News feeds we can tie into them and have it automated. I'll research. Tom's Hardware already does this with basic tech news, I'm sure there's some game sites we can get feeds off.

Sounds good, wasn't too sure if that was possible as I never looked into having game feeds on any webpages I have done. But that would be cool if it could be done. THANKS
