1. Kill stories. Right now there are three stories on the Sunbright news page that I would use the editor's "kill" option on. Two of them are off-topic, having nothing to do with Sunbright or Morgan County. The other one is a duplicate, about a mobile home fire death (you could choose which story kill).

Also, I frequently "kill" stories on the Loudon County board because they are about Loudon County, Virginia.
During the NFL playoffs I killed a lot of Eagles' stories on the Philadelphia board. "Roboblogger" posts stories by keywords, and cannot tell Philadelphia, Tennessee from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
There is also a Kingston, New York and a Morgan County, Ohio.

2. After cleaning up the board, you edit the stories that are still there. Roboblogger will often post only the first sentence of a story. You visit the full story at the link, and add a little more so the entry makes more sense.

3. Then you visit the "Newswire" and see if there are any stories there that you want to post without any assistance from Roboblogger.

4. You can also post stories from other sources on the web. You can even write a story from scratch if you are so inclined.

Topix will send you instructions to get you started. It doesn't require a whole lot. It can be a fun hobby.

Then go to the Wartburg topix and KILL the Terri Bingham stories they are sick and the Jess or Nicki Bingham stories. These are gossip mills.

Editors cannot kill blogs - only stories on the newsboard.

Every blog-post has a "report abuse" link on it. Click it for Topix staff to review the post.

There's also a "Feedback" link at the bottom-right of probably every Topix page. Topix does read the e-mails sent through that link. I've used it before.
