Today I’ve been busy integrating a brand new news-posting system. While cosmetically, you probably haven’t noticed any changes, under the hood quite a few things have! Most importantly, this system has a lot more functionality. Clicking on the title of any given news item will take you to a page where you can find related topics, by clicking on the news category or the tags associated with the article.
You will also be able to submit the news item to user-content powered sites such as del.ico.us and Digg. An improved feed is available on http://www.middleearthcenter.com/feed/. Feel free to use this to receive the latest news in whichever RSS program you prefer!

Comments will still be handled using our forums, as a new thread is automatically generated for each new newspost.

Furthermore, it allows for a more comprehensive archive where you can easily find and acces what you are looking for. Unfortunatly, all the old topics that used to be posted using the old forum-based system are not convertable into our new system. They can still be found in the news and announcements forum, though
