Off topic: is there a way to get the post to expand by default? I like this new format where you’re posting news stories you briefly rewrite to get the point across.

mmm… the answer is that yes we could change the _default_ for everyone, but we can only do one or the other, and I prefer the current way :innocent:

Does it also mean comments on that post on the news page will also appear here on the forum? This is new so don’t know how it works.

Was kinda wondering this myself. Or are members here allowed to share stories directly with staff for them to cover it instead of us just sharing the source story/website in a post as we currently do.

I think this is all new and evolving with Nate joining. But clarity here would be great.

I was thinking about a tip line, but I don’t really know what to do exactly yet.

I did tell the team to try and beat the community to new stories :slight_smile:

I’m sure you’ll make a post about this if you decide to. And I can share stories there (though it depends on how many the team will be willing/able to cover as some days there are many).

Well, you can win for 12 hours and I can for the other 12 :slight_smile:
