    Suggestion: "News/Announcements/Server Information" News, and announcements are the same words, just they are synonyms to each other. Its a grammatical error. *Yes, I searched it on Dictionary.com, they are both the same word, or have the same meaning essentially*

    Reason: I'm a grammar Nazi. :] No just kidding but they are the same word and I see no reason for Announcements and/or News to be there. Pick one or the other, not both :S *Unless of course you prefer it how it is.*

    Any Other Information: You can search it on Dictionary.com your self. Or in a real dictionary.

    I don't need a dictionary to know that they can have different meanings.

    An announcement is something you announce - and it may not be "news" because it isn't new. It can be a reminder.

    News is something new, about something new, new changes, etc.

    They are similar, but can have different meanings and reasons. :b
