I am positive, I mean 100% sure someone would SPAM it if it was member open I mean if you want users to "post" news than make a wiki like BMGf did for BN.
And I mean this is something you have to mod *everyday* and that is asking a lot of people to do it 365/24/7 and with the size of PC that is near impossible.
However, there is a hack where you can have a *page* with RSS feeds (I will get the vb.org url if needed) that way you don't get SPAM and can just see the news neatly.
It would consist of 1-4 columns (depending on how many feeds you use) and it just gives headlines and the news. This way a user can click on the page if he wants to read the news, and you don't have to make a MOD have the hassle of losing/deleted SPAMMED or duplicate threads.
