That's not really an issue on BT though. Aside from flavour - which I do agree, we can never have enough of - those messages are only good to show people the first steps of the game.
I don't quite agree. Realm bulletins have a strong effect on the atmosphere of a realm. When the realm can't even bothered to have decent and semi-recent bulletins, it makes one skeptical about the rest. First impressions are important, and bulletins can quickly reduce the confidence newcomers have towards the realm leadership, even if that player isn't a newbie.
