Unfortunately, I don't see those message boards ever working on P1999. Though the message board graphic still appears in game, the client no longer recognizes that its a clickable item. Thus, no data is ever sent to the server to say "the player clicked on a message board, retrieve info!".
Also, with the update of the new UI, there is no longer a screen for the message board.

Its a shame really, as I always thought it was a cool, if underused, feature. I remember reading posts about guys looking for wives on the boards.
Would it be possible to institute a workaround using interactive items that have no use?

Most zones have at least one oddball spot (such as a tree or other formation) that will give a 'too far away to interact' message when clicked, and when in range, have no effect. Maybe they could be re-worked and relocated into a functional Messasge Board, if creating the objects is the issue.
