All content was generated and selected by the users themselves, with the exception of site news written by the administrators. Registered users would submit stories to the "submissions queue" where other users would vote +1 FP ("front page"), +1, 0, or –1. If the story reached a predetermined threshold score, it was posted to the front page or to the relevant section, depending on the proportion of "FP votes". If it failed to make the threshold, other factors (such as number of comments, type of comments, and their ratings) could still cause the story to be posted to a section or to the front page. Otherwise, it was dropped.
