Right, so you might've seen a few people updating their Lumblrs to the new version, which is completely optional if you want to.

I also tried to write up some rules for Newsfeed.

Alright, so Newsfeed is this interactive page on Lumblr which anyone can edit, and so I just thought I'd make some suggestions about what we can all do on Newsfeed. Anyway, that's all I got for now. Idk what else to cover so let me know if I've missed anything
 * 1) Alright, so first up is obviously the news and announcements stuff. If you want to add a news or announcement thing like school coming back or whatever, I was thinking we could use the Roleplaying News and Events board for this, and someone puts up a possible news or event thing that they want to post, and then it follows the sort of system where a rollback or admin (different to the rollback or admin making the post if that's the case) has to approve it. You can then post it on Newsfeed for everyone.
 * 2) Anyone with Lumblr can comment on the Newsfeed posts, however, the posts can only come from Newsfeed. Basically the meta for this is that Newsfeed is not technically a Lumblr Profile and has different abilities to Lumblr Networks.
 * 3) I was thinking we could add a gossip section. The gossip section would have its own section of the page and all the posts would be from Newsfeed as it's anonymously posted. Anyone can post here without needing to confirm it first seeing as that's kind of how gossip works. You can post gossip about your characters or you can post gossip that your character might say about someone else. And it doesn't have to just be celebrities. Basically, this is so your characters then have this new element of being able to react to gossip. Obviously people can comment on it and be like "this is bs" or if your character is the kind of person who would believe and spread gossip then they could thrive on this.
 * 4) Events - this is basically for like public events that would be happening. However, if your character is the kind of person who would throw a big house party where all of Miduna Beach High School was invited, (admittedly not that many people would be invited) then a public invitation might be issued. If the events are more private (e.g. a little group birthday party) then your character can individually invite them on their personal Lumblr Networks.
 * 5) The other thing about events is that anyone can make a public event to add to the events tab as either a character inviting everyone or a business. If it's like a council event (idk if you Americans have different terms for this but like it's organised by like the city council and usually run at a public place like a park or city hall or whatever) that can also go there.
 * 6) Blocking users - individual users can't just go on and say that a certain user is blocked from using Newsfeed. Obviously if a character continually puts harassing comments on there they would then be blocked from following and commenting on Newsfeed posts.
