 Ok, no jumping down my throat for this one.  It's just a suggestion of the friendly variety.  Don't buzz on my optimism.  

I think people on both sides of the inmate/warden line have expressed a lot of frustration with the whole lack of organized information / response time deal around here.  Apparently people have tried to organize response teams or whatever before, and it's just never worked out well.  I'm not suggesting something like that.  

But I do think the barge could benefit from even having some kind of weekly bulletin type thing where anyone: inmate or warden alike, can comment and read issues of concern. I already know some of you might be thinking 'well that's why we have these journals. People should just read everything.'  Big shocking newsflash of the day: not everyone does.  A lot of the inmates - and sadly some of the wardens probably - don't care about every single piece of juicy gossip going around, so mining out the important stuff when it gets lost in responses to people's announcements can be difficult.

So I'm just saying maybe we could just throw up the 'Bulletin Board' every week, and people could bullet point anything of vital import to the ship as a whole.  Like 'oh yeah, someone died last week and so and so are working on dealing with that.'   I don't really see a reason to keep it locked to wardens, especially since the whole point here is that we're trying to help people.  Not keep them in the dark or treat them like the bad guys.  Obviously, some stuff has to be kept on the down low, just because someone might actually be a threat - but there's still plenty that they should -know- things are being done about.  

It's just an idea.  I'd be willing to field the bulletin posts if people agree to it.   And I'm not saying it will fix the ... problems with immediate response to things, but it should at least help allay the image that no one is doing anything to help people around here.  And communication's always a positive.  

So.  Thoughts?

This sounds like a great idea.

You really think so? It sort of came out of a talk I was having with Harry. I can't see how it would hurt, at least.

I do. Communication can help both sides of the divide, I think. As long as personal information isn't being given out, I don't see it as a problem either.

Yes, could something be done about the deplorable absence of decent Roman food?

I've ben raising it for weeks and absolutely no action's been taken. It's really quite disgraceful... Do something about it, won't you?

Wardens don't really have any say over the menu selection, sorry.

Trust me on that one.

I think it might be good to work it out a little more before you start implementing it. Some inmates' progress might be damaged by public announcements and some wardens might prefer certain things to be quiet.

Well, hence the discussion-y post here, for that exact reason.

I'm mostly talking about the things that get discussed on the journals anyways. Just consolidating the most important facts, that kind of thing.

I just see a lot of people replaying the same conversations in different places pretty frequently, and a lot of people complain about not having access to information, or knowing about things until it's too late.

Look at us being all on top of the responsible. I think gold stars are in line.

Maybe. But since I'm in warden limbo again, it's probably good for me to have something to concentrate on.
