HHR News: Anonymous voting?

218

We've turned off anonymous voting (the ability for all site visitors to vote on stories) and limited it to registered users for the time being.

The idea behind the Hao Hao Report is to have a method for all of us to quickly find the best and most interesting posts and news reports about China.

It has always been the policy of HHR to allow users to submit articles from their own blogs, as a way of both promoting their blog and exposing the community to diverse sources of commentary and information.

HHR Back Up!

273

Happy New Year, we're back online!

Mid-December HHR's domain came up for renewal, and with hosting expiring next month, I figured I'd just do a quick transfer rather than dealing with everything twice.

"Quick" turned out to be quite the subjective term, and delay after delay caused the site to remain down for most of the last half of the month.

New Facebook Hao Hao Report App

http://apps.facebook.com

Hey all, just an announcement that Hao Hao Report has jumped on the Facebook bandwagon and now has its very own Facebook App.

The fairly straight-forward app simply displays the four top stories from the front page here at Hao Hao Report. Main links go directly to the original story's page, while a small link under the submissions description leads to the Hao Hao page for voting and commenting.

This is still very much in the testing phases, but as everyone LOVES to put "beta" after their Web projects (somewhat indefinitely, it seems), here ya are.

The SPAM Situation on HHR

336

Just a quick note to assure everyone that this spam problem is top of my priority list. I've had e-mails and comments from a few users who seemed a bit ticked, and wanted to give you guys a forum where you could comment and give suggestions.

So, here's a run down of what "was" in place, what "is" in place, and what likely "will be" in place soon. Please leave comments here and let me know if you have any suggestions.

HHR: More hao-looking than ever…

http://www.lostlaowai.com

Well, the redesign is done. Hopefully everything works. Let me know if you notice any problems.

I'm still working on a solution for the constant spam that gets on here. It's a tough battle, as HHR is set up only to allow users to submit (to help stop spam), and also has a captcha security feature to stop robots... but people are persistent. I'm pretty quick about cleaning it up, but if I'm taking too long - hit the contact button in the sidebar and let me know.

Upgrading HHR, bear with me...

1566

Hey all, just upgrading HHR (and hopefully putting myself on the right track to stopping some of the shitastic spam that's been cloggin' up the Report). Please bear with me if things look a bit goofy.

HHR News: Two small changes

1030

Hi all, thanks to some user feedback, I've modified the HHR in two small ways. The first being that the HHR story titles now link directly to the original article. Complaints were that the article link was too small. This solves that.

The second is it now takes 5 votes to make it to the main page. As the site is now receiving more traffic (currently about 25,000 visitors a month) and we're nearing our 350th member, I've decided to up this as a way to help maintain the quality of the published stories.
