I know BigWham wishes the newsletter never went away, for what it's worth. We've had discussions about it in the past, and discussed it recently with the release of clan platoon report.
I doubt there is overall big interest for it, perhaps. Idk. Finding enough volunteers etc will be another task.

Yeah, it was a big reason why I read the newsletter as well. It was the main reason I included a interview in the new clan Platoon Report as well, thinking that it was a big part of the past newsletters, it would be a popular feature again. But its been like pulling teeth to get any questions asked and idk how many have enjoyed the first interviews, as I dont think anyones really commented on that feature.
Oh well, fun to do it anyway even if im the only one reading it

I never read the full Newsletter, just whatever took my interest, usually the interview(s) and clan reports. However, the Dispatch never really hit full throttle for the entire time I was there and that was a while ago.

as if you need to be interviewed - no one gives a f*ck about what u think, owen....
I enjoyed the newsletter. I as I would with any newsletter, newspaper, etc. never read the whole thing. I think different parts, for different folks. I might suggest an occasional spam distribution just to expose people to it.
I always read the news from the top, (i.e. from the owner). I want to know what he is thinking about as the most influential person on where this site goes.
I read articles talking about trends, plans, etc.
I skimmed/read interviews depending on how well I knew the player and whether they interesting questions. When they sank to the level of boxers/briefs I tune out.
I enjoyed the newsletter and the current Clan report.
A possibility may be to not take on the entirety of the newsletter at once, but instead release the different sections of it individually. I feel that if were broken up, it may garner more interest (at least some portions of it) then if it is presented all at once. B/c that can be an overwhelming task in of itself to find the interesting bit within the newsletter for that particular person.
For example, seeing that the interview seemed to be possibly the most interesting part, a following could potentially grow if there were a stand alone "Interview Series."

I very much agree.
