Rules & Considerations:


While we at the Foundry will not tolerate the publishing of any heretical or anti-Republic rhetoric, we will not be responsible for the material printed otherwise - any grievance against a written article rests solely on the reporter. We may permit articles to be written under a pen name if there is a case made that the material could compromise the safety of the reporter.

Pen names and aliases will only be granted at the discretion of the Editor. We will not accept anonymous contributions or unverified submissions without setting a meeting with the Editor to establish an explanation.

Frequency of print will be based on time-sensitivity of the articles.

As the sole owners of the Frontier Herald, the Foundry holds the right to change the above conditions at their discretion and without notice.

The editor of the paper reserves the right to edit submitted articles to conform with public standards.

All interested parties; please leave word for Jeane Harlow located at the Foundry's General Store.

[[Please PM this forum account, or open a player relations ticket to coordinate a meeting with the editor or to submit your content]]


Advertising:

Any enterprise wishing to place advertisements may do so at the cost of 10 copper per word.

[[Advertisement awards 1 LP at the time of print]]


Articles:

Contributions will be compensated based on content with priority and preference given to routine contributors.

Priority will go to time-sensitive material, and after that it will be first come first served.

In the event multiple articles are submitted regarding the same subject, preference will be given to the contributor with the most influence over the paper (see below charts)

All other material priority will be given to time sensitive subjects, and after that articles will be slotted on a first come first served basis.

Sale Bonus:

Paper Influence: Submissions are tallied and the paper will take into consideration contributors who help make the paper money and provide more benefits. Influence is tallied by looking back at the last six months from the paper issued to determine the Tier of Influence of a contributor:
