This sector is for posting about stuff that happens around the world, as you can probably deduce from the title. Sounds simple enough, but there are certain things you need to follow before you post what happened 500m from your house or whatever.
What you should/shouldn't post:
You have to post relevant things. News from your local county that nobody other than your neighborhood cares about is not allowed unless it has been reported by a major news source.
When posting about relevant stuff, you have to add a source to the thread unless it's a discussion about current (general) events, not a specific one.
Don't flood the section with news threads in an attempt to farm posts.
This is not a section to post your gross conspiracy theories unless it's news that actually affects the world in some way.
You can, however, post what you think will happen and start a discussion about it - IF it's based on actual events.
