Im sitting here, browsing the darkbasic site, as you do when your bored, and ive just had a thought. I like reading the newsletter and have decided it isnt regular enough. Surely if my warcraft 3 clan can issue a weekly newsletter and fill it, darkbasic people can. If its due to time consumation then damn, cant you make time Does anyone agree with me or am i alone like with most other things? If i am i will go dig myself a hole to live in.

There are no plans to release the newsletter anything more regularly than monthly at the moment (and I can't see this changing this year) regardless of how many people vote it otherwise. Sorry, if you want a more regular newsletter I suggest you write one (or start sending me enough content that I might fill a newsletter faster)

Cheers,

Rich

I run Martyn's newsletter right now lol but nothing ever gets sent out because there is nothing to fill it with. Weekly is far to regular for this type of thing, and no one was willing to help out. Monthly it might work, but then DB has it's own for that.

The problem with getting the latest list is I've been getting complaints People who have cancelled their subscription to the DBWN keep recieving it because you keep putting the names back in lol.
