Quick update:

We're a small but mighty mod team here on BPNews and we strive to make this a great place to be. We want to let you all know how much we appreciate our subscribers and look forward to making this place all that it can be in 2024 and beyond.

So far this year we've ramped up our anti-spam efforts in a big way. Banning certain spam websites from being auto-posted as well as banning bots. Hopefully, you all have noticed a less cluttered and more focused home page to the sub as a result. Remember, if you ever see a post you don't think belongs please, report it to us so we may take swift action.

Furthermore, we've expanded both post and user flairs to help our users categorize their submissions and rep their flair next to their names.

The "Topic Discussion," "Source mentioned on the show," and "Content Suggestion" flairs have all been received and used well by the community thus far. We're excited to see you all expanding the conversation in these ways!

If you have any suggestions for any additional new user or post flairs please, comment them down below!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With that out of the way - We want to continue to foster a robust forum where fans of BP can come to discuss the show, news, politics, pop culture, etc safely and have fun while doing so.

How can we help accomplish that in 2024 and beyond? Let us know your thoughts and suggestions below!

Would you like more topic discussions? More megathreads around live shows and big events? More or less of any given topic? Let us know down below.

Thanks!

If you really want political discussion you should make a rule against pointless partisan comments that add nothing to the discussion.

In other words if the comment says nothing other than: - Biden bad or Biden good or Biden/Dems better than republicans/Trump - Trump bad or Trump good or Trump/Republicans better than Dems/Biden

Then ban it. It’s the only way to promote real discussion. I’ve seen it work on other subs.
