The Sethris Times

The Sethris Times (or Sethris Times) is one of the most popular newspapers that mostly influences Northwest Eldham, founded on June 19, 2022 by Vel-Mäst Atreiyen (Welmast) and Lev-Ifrik Gëlevëm (Lev), and soon later Gäles-Ifrik Gelärhisgir (FireDolphin). The Sethris Times is currently owned by Welmast and FireDolphin.

The Beginning
On June 19, 2022 a person called Lev was thinking about the Novastonian Newspaper that existed back when he was in Novastonia. Then, he thought about Sethris also having a Newspaper. Soon after, he said in general chat of the Whiteridge discord server asking about making a newspaper in Sethris. Welmast then said "Yeah, I'm pretty good at drawings and stuff. If you're talking about Minecraft Maps then nevermind". After a few hours, Lev posted the first layout of The Sethris Times newspaper, a bit inspired by the Novatonian Newspaper layout. The newspaper was called 'Sethris Newspaper', then changed to 'Sethrian Newspaper'. The name of the newspaper wasn't intended to stay and was the temporary name until there would be an official name change. Afterwards, Welmast has came out with his layout. With Welmast's layout, the name was 'The Sethris Times', which is where the current name has originally came from. But, a person in high authority of the country had thought about changing the name to 'The North Star' or 'Polaris News', and 'Polaris Printing'. But it was decided to keep the name as 'The Sethris Times'. After a few hours, the first article of the Sethris Times was already made. The first article was talking about the Grand Prix in Whiteridge being postponed, and the PvE Event.

Gaining Popularity
After the Sethris Times's first article, the newspaper started to gain a lot of popularity. After that, the Sethris times started to make more articles, and buying ads, which caused the newspaper to get more and more popularity. After almost a month of the Sethris times being founded, the server gained 47 members. After the newspaper turned a month old, Lev made an article about it.

Controversy
After that, no articles were posted. Due to some controversy that one of the founders was going through, which was that Lev wanted to shut down the Sethris Times due to his reputation. Welmast told him to resign, but he didn't want to lose his position. But afterwards, he lost his owner role. Then, it kept going back and forth about Welmast telling Lev to resign, and Lev telling Welmast to give his owner back. Soon enough, Lev started to become toxic and the newspaper public picking Welmast's side and kicking Lev out. But, after a few days, Welmast has blocked him and banned him from the server after repeatedly following him around and asking him to become an owner again.

Coming Back
Until, they started posting again. The newspaper soon enough made an Aristii Areal Branch of the Sethris Times, which covers events that are happening in the Aristios Area. The Sethris Times community voted to make the newspaper more modern. And, finally made their 5th Article. A few months after the 5th article came out, they finally made their 6th article. Things have been looking good for the newspaper once again, and it looks like it will have a brighter future than ever before.

Sethris Times Branches
After a few months of delays and difficulties, the first Sethris Times branch came out, which is called Sethris Times: Aristii Areal. Just after the nation Aristios has collapsed, the mayor of an Aristii town called Din Tei contacted the owners of the newspaper to make a Newspaper Branch for the areas that were in Aristios. As of September of 2022, there wasn't any other articles made after its first.

After that, the Newspaper started to release different branches of The Sethris Times.


The Sethris Times' Branches include, but not limited to: Financial News: Eldham Edition, The Redorivian Sunset Gazette, Rathniri Recon, and Financial News: Rathnir Edition

New Logo and Layout
After Lev was forced to resign as the Sethris Times Co-Owner, the newspaper started to change it's layout/design to something more clean. Its first layout change was an article after Lev was forced to resign, which was Edition 5, launched in August 16. Rathniri Recon (or Rathnir Edition which was called at the time) was made with a more fantasy-looking layout than the Eldham Version. Edition 6 was published on September 10th, and it would have the layout that is now used today.

The reason for the changes is unknown. Maybe because is to wanting a better looking layout/logo, or since that the logo and a few things were made up by the Ex Co-Owner and didn't want the owners to know Lev's identity, so they changed their branding a bit.

Concepts
'During the Sethris Times' existence, the owners (mostly Lev) had ideas/concepts that had. Of course, they made voting polls to the public to choose if they want the concept ideas to happen. But, mostly when Lev was no longer an owner of the Sethris Times, he had multiple ideas/concepts that he couldn't execute.'

New Header Concept
In July 22, 2022, Lev made a poll on a concept of a brand new header. The majority of the public said no to the change. The newspaper header looked way more modern than it was the official header at the time. But, even with that, it didn't change whatsoever.

City of the Day Calendar
Another Lev Concept, which was to make a "Stoneworks City of the Day Calendar" under The Sethris Times. This time, Lev didn't have a server or the Public Eye to put the vote on, due to being forced to resign and permanently banned from the Sethris Times server. This idea was up for a while and had no use until it was decided to use it as a fork for the new newspaper Lev made, which was The BO'OH'O'WA'ER Post.

Sethris Times: Central Eldham Areal
Before the Velerian Empire dissolved, Lev wanted to do a "Central Eldham Areal" of the Sethris Times. Although, he had communication again with Welmast and was again at least recognized by him, it was HIGHLY unlikely that he will be unbanned. Lev, although, didn't understand this fact and kept annoying Welmast so much that he decided to stop contacting him.
