If there is little capacity on the DM side at the moment, perhaps players can contribute with rumors too?
Give us something to read about story developments please!
For what it is worth, my absolutely favorite thing to see on the forums, it that thread. When it is slow, I am sad.
Dislike player rumors. That'll flood up quick.
DM rumors are fun, the problem is sometimes it's just a lot of stuff going on so it gets overlooked.
Word spreads of Badass McBadass did some badass stuff. All the talk is how badass he is.
It's kind of ironic, really.
DMs are too busy doing cool stuff to update the rumors thread.
Players don't see the rumors thread getting updated and think things are slow.
This, atleast, is not a rumor thread. So lets stop making it one.
Rumors are updated if a DM feels it necessary for an event to have public eye in terms of having some chatter / information going on. Not all things have that.
Remembering to put some things up there is also a factor, but far lesser in many regards. It's often a matter of personal view if some event should be there, up to the DM involved.
