Active Worlds should have the ability for World and Community News to be
read, you should beable to submit news to the AW Universe and have Admins
check it and accept it, you could click a button "Check News" and it would
send a Universe Message to you saying Community, Citizen and World News to
you and if you've already read it it will not show up untill the news is
updated, changed, or has new news

Wouldn't this cause a major flood for you?
What if all citizens deside to have news and it was all flooded to you in a
big mass of text when you ask for it.

I think people posting news in here is good enough as most of us read them
anyway.
Many to read and not post.
That is what general.discussion and community sections are for.

I think the newsgroups and other methods of getting the news out would be
better than universe-wide spam.

I tend to agree with Ryan, but yes there are ways that something of the intended nature could be implemented without being such a pain... such as perhaps allowing a new mode of communitation which would save the last so many lines of text in a local buffer, and send it to anyone who requests it by right clicking in their contact list and choosing that option. Of course, that would mean it would only be available to people while you're still on-line, and there should probably be some indicator by your name to let people know it's there if they want it, but that's better than storing it on the uniserver or sending it out indiscriminately, I think.
