There are threads by Ben in the Game Annoucement Board. These threads are usually very important news that shape the game. Since they are only temporary, it be nice if these threads can be save to a archive where newbies can go to read. Since the topic of these threads are already close, it should be strictly for reading and no one is able to make any new post/reply on these threads. I suppose it can be very interesting reading it and let all of us whether new or old get an idea of the history of sleuth and how the game had changes with time.

Whew, when I joined all I had was a mentor. Well, I phrased that wrong because my mentor was DaRu who was the best mentor. How much easier can we make it for the newbies? I think the newbie link is a good source and less work for Ben.

First,I am refering to post by BEN like "Changes in Locker", "Changes in layout", or the 2 posts in Game Announcement right now. Second, I dont see how this actually make things easier for newbies. The archive are meant for just interesting reading.

**Please don't get me wrong. I am not trying to be defensive here. But i think my post is greatly misunderstood.

I believe some of those threads are relocated to the Sleuth Talk board by the Admin.

I am not entirely clear why a newbie would want to know the game has changed? It wouldn't apply to them anymore, they don't know the game any other way. They have the customer care center, the FAQ, the newbie board, others.

Perhaps, you can give us a better idea, what other game announcements posts should be archived? Trying to place myself in newbie shoes, I honestly don't know. Perhaps for instance something like the thread that Ben has up there now in regards to switching agencies, and the 28 hr time period. Also I think a newbie would not realize a third agent would be allowed in one agency. I think this could be placed in the FAQ. Instead of them reading super long discussions about things, and opinions.

I never checked the newbie FAQ towards the newbie message boards. Perhaps there is room for improvement there. Maybe something you would want to do Delvin, or another volunteer.

Ah....that makes sense, did not think of that. I think you would have to be very careful in marking it somehow, otherwise it gets confusing. As a newbie you already have so much to think about.

I like archive idea, as long as the archive is just for interesting reading. Just a thought, but maybe the archive could be unlocked at a specific detective age so that the archive's contents could only be accessed by detectives that have been here enough time to not be confused by the archive, and newbies wouldn't get confused by the archive contents disagreeing with the current stuff then.

We are going by the assumption there is something to archive here. I would not be surprised if Ben just pressed delete on them a long time ago, and did not log them.
