Am I the only one here who won't be missing Vicky? She was cute for a while, but then the whole thing just got annoying . . . If getting rid of Vicky will make more time and room for more user-submitted news stories, then I'm okay with it.
-
Like I said on DeliahTheArtist's posting; You can count my vote in for this. Let the member's of Current vote on the top stories, not the editors, no matter the situation, time or event of the moment.
-
Why doesn't Current just give the members what they want? Why do corporations always feel that they know better than their goddamn patrons?
I wonder if a boycott would be a more viable way to address our grievances...
-
Though I'm not a staff member at current I do believe the whole Twitterbot issue has been disscussed. Twitterbot is basically a stepping stone, not a permanent fixture at Current. Similarly the homepage and hiatus of current news are stepping stones to a system that supposedly, will end up featuring more community submissions and comments on tv. Patience people, patience. All good things take time.

second that notion

One last thing..
@Mario, we need the required sections of "Religion", and "Celebrities" section...
Because I say celebrities, because they are one of the top non-newsworthy things in Current, of all lists of things you have, please do make this small request....

I wasn't a huge fan of Vicky, only because she didn't have much of a presents besides her voice on the channel. I'm down for news, especially when it's "Current", but how about we bring in a real robot pro. Can you say Conky 2000!

I miss Vicky and the comments by current users!
