Hello faithful Times readers,

After my third edition of the Whyville Times, I would like to thank all of you who have welcomed me to Whyville. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of your article submissions and look forward to reading more. You are all very intelligent and creative, which makes my job incredibly fun.

With that said, I'd like to take a moment to discuss the BBS. I have noticed that a small number of you tend to voice your opinions quite strongly. While I encourage you to share your thoughts, I will remind you that the BBS is a place for constructive criticism. Simply stating, "I hate this article," or "This article is a waste," is not polite, and from now on will not be tolerated. If you do not like an article, that is fine, but you must give a reason why or suggest a way that it could have been better. It makes me very happy to see that you all have differing opinions, which hopefully will help improve all of your writing.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy this week's edition.

Yours truly,
Times Editor
