Vox Tip: Be Part of the Vox Community by Making Suggestions
There are a lot of things that you can do to participate in Vox as a community member, and some of the most engaging are the daily prompts and the spotlight area for [this is good]. It's quite fun to see what the Question of the Day and Vox Hunt will be every day - this is something that I personally enjoy checking out each morning. I also look forward to every time [this is good] is updated (about 3 times a week, usually Monday, Wednesday and Friday), so I can click through and see what great content around Vox is being featured.
Voxers always have something to say, and the goal of QotD and Vox Hunt are to get you thinking and writing even when you log in and aren't feeling inspired. If the day's QotD or Vox Hunt doesn't move you, you can click the arrows to read through and answer previous prompts. The posts and photo featured in [this is good] can inspire you or help you make a new friend.
Where does this content come from? We get suggestions from you, our members, and these are looked at by the community team to add their own suggestions and pull it all together. Vox has a great deal of spotlight-worthy content, and we really love that our community helps us as the "eyes and ears" to point out the great things they see!
So how can you give us your ideas? The Home page of Vox has "suggest" and "submit" links in each of the prompt and feature boxes. Click on that link, and it will create a new private message addressed to the community team. For the QotD and Vox Hunt prompts, put your idea in the form of a question or statement that people would answer. Keep in mind Vox has an international audience and the questions should be open-ended (not "yes" or "no"). For [this is good], include a link to the item you are suggesting, and the reason why. Tip: If you want to have a record of all of the ideas you submitted, make sure you click the "Send me a copy via email"!
How else can you be part of the community? There are a lot of ways, really, but here are a few ideas:
- Add relevant tags to your posts and items. This makes it easier for people to find them. See All About Tags
- Explore the answers for Vox Hunt and QotD from other members. You might find some great people to add to your neighborhood. See Exploring Vox Blogs
- Join groups and add your posts to them. This is a great way to share content related to specific topics. See Adding Content to Groups
And of course, check out the Question of the Day and Vox Hunt to answer them as often as you'd like!

Comments
With the [this is good] area, I nominate entries from my neighbors only when I think they are the cream of the crop of all the posts I've read on Vox. Some people just seem to "have it" when it comes to writing good, introspective, thoughtful, or entertaining entries. These people get nominated more often by me. I'm sure it's the same way with many others you've seen as repeat features.
But talking to other Voxers, they've noticed it, too. So, this is not one person against many. It's simply a common observation, that should be remedied. If Vox is trying to be fair and create a sense of community, then give everyone a fair chance. My suggestions were not silly ones, though I've seen Vox come up with ones I don't even get why they were asked, but that's strictly my own opinion. But recycling old Vox Hunts and QotD's.... when people are suggesting, just seems unfair, and ludicrous. And sorry to say, but repetition seems to be more apparent, since I've joined Vox.
I agree with lucky. I like many of the folks that repeatedly get featured (it's as if there is a "loop" going 'round and 'round) but it's the same bunch of people!
It's annoying. I don't even care about the "not fair" part though maybe someone should.
Thanks!

No, no, no, no and no.
All these features that Vox is slamming on to us are ridiculous! I am starting to despise Vox more than I love it like I used to. The "share" button is excessive and stupid and now there are so many "community friendly" options that its becoming an overload. Not something worth while.
I know what you mean i keep going around in circles in here,
every day is a choice you make that will change you life

1) Who even reads our suggests?
2) Are they even read?
3)Vox is awesome. Best blog of the Year
1. Everything takes ages to load
2. When it does load there are things left, right and centre
3. It's impossible to track any major discussions or any other ones for that matter. It's taken me 20 minutes odd to find this one!
4. This should be a place where people plug their bands or music act, I can't see that happening anywhere.
Have I got this all wrong???
it works fine on palm apps.
I'd like to have a code editor instead of WYSIWYG - and receive an answer how to use WYSIWYG editor.
I want my post crossposted to LJ have the same tags as here, not blank - and I receive an answer what are tags at all and how to set them using WYSIWYG editor.
I AM VERY HAPPY FOR A.SITE LIKE THIS, IT IS A GREAT SITE AND I LOVE TO BE PART OF THE VOX MEMBERS,
Thank you
